What sits beside it in the ranking

Stovv F20HF01SS ($89/yr, 475 kWh/yr) costs a little more to run than the Stovv F20HF01SB. Liebherr IC5110IM ($89/yr, 475 kWh/yr) costs a little less.

Within the Stovv lineup

Stovv makes 6 ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators; this one ranks 4 of 6 for running cost, between the brand's cheapest, the F18HF01SB at $82/yr, and its priciest, the F20HF01SW at $89/yr.

Stovv F20HF01SB over 13 years

13 years is NAHB's typical service life for this category; at $89/year, the Stovv F20HF01SB adds up to about $1,161 in electricity over that span.

Is it worth replacing?

The Stovv F20HF01SB 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 $89/year every year.

Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.

Protecting what you have

At $89/year just to run, a refrigerator is worth protecting against an unplanned repair bill on top of that.
