Many people buy the cheapest appliance, but the electricity bill keeps growing every month. So the real cost = purchase price + electricity cost over the years.
Check these points:
1. Star rating: more stars usually means less electricity.
2. Estimate how many hours a day it will run.
3. Choose the right size. An oversized appliance uses more power, and a small one will not work well.
4. Add up the 5-year total cost of two models and compare.
Sometimes a slightly costlier model with more stars turns out cheaper within a few years. Our electricity tool makes this calculation easy.
