Model
Beko BBBF2410IM2
Rank #638 means 637 of the 1,000 refrigerator models we track cost less to run each year; the 31st efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 31% of those models.
What does the Beko BBBF2410IM2 cost to run per year?
The Beko BBBF2410IM2 costs about $74 a year to run, more than most of the 1,000 refrigerator models we track; it ranks #638. It uses 26% less energy than the U.S. federal standard model in its class, which would cost about $95/yr to run, a saving of roughly $21 a year. Efficiency-wise, once size is accounted for, it trails most of the class, ahead of only 31% of the models we track. This class has no published efficiency-factor figure beyond annual kWh itself, so at 8 cu ft (the class spans 1.2 to 31.7), size is the clearest lever we can point to for this model's running cost.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Unique UGP-340L W AC at $74/yr runs a little cheaper and the Galanz GLR12B**R16 at $74/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A refrigerator typically stays in service for somewhere around 12 years; over that span, the Beko BBBF2410IM2's $74/yr adds up to roughly $888 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.
By the numbers
The Beko BBBF2410IM2 normalized against its whole class, so each figure means something.
What it costs you over time
Running cost is an every-year number, so it compounds. At $74/yr, here is what the Beko BBBF2410IM2 adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Beko BBBF2410IM2 costs about $740. That is roughly $210 less than a standard model in its class, which would run closer to $950 over the same ten years.
How the Beko BBBF2410IM2 compares
The refrigerator class we track runs from $8 to $149 a year. At $74/yr, it runs about $10 a year above the class median of $64, and it is about $66 a year more than the cheapest refrigerator to run at $8. Against the US federal standard model for its class at about $95/yr, the Beko BBBF2410IM2 uses 26% less energy.
What drives its running cost
At 8 cu ft, the Beko BBBF2410IM2 is a mid-size refrigerator for its class, which spans 1.2 to 31.7 cu ft with a median of 12.6 cu ft, right in the middle of the capacity range, so capacity is roughly a wash compared with the rest of the class.
- Interior volume. More cubic feet of cold air to maintain generally means a bigger compressor and a higher running-cost figure, even among efficient models.
- Counter depth vs standard depth. Standard-depth models generally offer more interior volume per unit of width than counter-depth models, a tradeoff between built-in looks and cubic feet.
- Compressor technology. How a compressor cycles, full on/off versus a variable-speed inverter design, is one of the biggest hidden differences behind two fridges with similar cubic feet but different running costs.
- Placement and ventilation. Ventilation clearance around the back and top matters more than most owners expect; a fridge starved of airflow runs its compressor longer to hold the same temperature.
Common questions
Is the Beko BBBF2410IM2 cheap to run?
Its $74/yr running cost, rank #638 of 1,000, is above what most refrigerator models we track cost to run, so this is not one of the cheaper picks on electricity alone.
How much does the Beko BBBF2410IM2 cost per month?
About $6.19 a month, which is the $74 annual estimate spread across twelve months at the US average rate of $0.1856/kWh. Your own bill scales with your local electricity rate and how heavily you use it.
How is this running-cost figure calculated?
The formula is annual kWh times price per kWh: 400 kWh from ENERGY STAR times the US average of $0.1856/kWh comes to about $74 a year. It covers electricity only, not the purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Beko BBBF2410IM2 for its size?
31st percentile once size is factored in. That means its size-adjusted efficiency is not the main reason for the running-cost figure above; its capacity plays a large role too.
