The closest alternatives by cost
Sorted by running cost among refrigerators, one step cheaper is Beko BBBF3019IMWE ($105/yr, 556 kWh/yr), and one step pricier is Blomberg BRFB1920FBI ($105/yr, 556 kWh/yr).
Same brand, different models
Beko makes 36 ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators; this one ranks 31 of 36 for running cost, between the brand's cheapest, the BFBF2414SS at $54/yr, and its priciest, the BFSB3612XSS at $112/yr.
What this adds up to over time
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components puts a typical refrigerator's service life at 13 years; run the Beko BBBF3019IMWESS that long and it costs about $1,359 in electricity, on top of whatever it cost to buy.
Weighing a replacement
The Beko BBBF3019IMWESS runs above its category average. If the refrigerator you actually own is older still, likely well past ENERGY STAR's efficiency baseline when it was made, a current certified model could cost meaningfully less than this model's $105/year every year.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
Protecting what you have
A refrigerator like the Beko BBBF3019IMWESS is a real household expense whether or not it needs replacing yet; a protection plan is one way to budget for a repair rather than a full replacement.
