Model
Electrolux ELFE7337***
Rank #374 means 373 of the 615 clothes dryer models we track cost less to run each year; the 80th efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 80% of those models.
What does the Electrolux ELFE7337*** cost to run per year?
Do the math and the Electrolux ELFE7337***'s $113/yr puts it at rank #374 of 615, on the pricier side of the class. Adjusted for its cef, it is more efficient than 80% of clothes dryer models we track, a strong result once size is taken into account. At a CEF of 3.93, its combined energy factor is the single figure that best explains how it earns its running-cost number.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Electrolux ELFE7637*** at $113/yr runs a little cheaper and the Electrolux ELFE7437*** at $113/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A clothes dryer typically stays in service for somewhere around 13 years; over that span, the Electrolux ELFE7337***'s $113/yr adds up to roughly $1469 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

By the numbers
The Electrolux ELFE7337*** 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 $113/yr, here is what the Electrolux ELFE7337*** adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Electrolux ELFE7337*** costs about $1130. That is roughly $0 less than the class median, which would run closer to $1130 over the same ten years.
How the Electrolux ELFE7337*** compares
The clothes dryer class we track runs from $23 to $128 a year. At $113/yr, it sits right on the class median of $113, and it is about $90 a year more than the cheapest clothes dryer to run at $23.
What drives its running cost
At 8 cu ft, the Electrolux ELFE7337*** is a large clothes dryer for its class, which spans 3.8 to 9.2 cu ft with a median of 7.4 cu ft, size is usually the single biggest lever behind a running-cost figure, and at this end of the range there is more capacity to service, which tends to push the number up. The CEF of 3.93 on this model, above the class median of 3.93, measures combined energy factor; it is the number to compare directly against another model's CEF if capacity is similar.
- Heat source and Combined Energy Factor (CEF). CEF combines drying performance with standby and off-mode energy use; for a given drum size, a higher CEF means less energy per pound of laundry dried, and heat-pump models usually post the highest figures in the class.
- Drum capacity. Drum capacity sets how much laundry one cycle can hold, and heating a bigger volume of air generally costs more energy per cycle.
Common questions
Is the Electrolux ELFE7337*** cheap to run?
Not especially. At $113 a year it ranks #374 of 615 clothes dryer models we track, in the pricier part of its class to run, though its size and features may still justify that for your needs.
How much does the Electrolux ELFE7337*** cost per month?
Roughly $9.4/mo, spreading the $113/yr estimate evenly across twelve months at $0.1856/kWh. Actual monthly bills swing with your rate and usage pattern.
How is this running-cost figure calculated?
We take the model's published annual energy use of 608 kWh from ENERGY STAR and multiply it by the US average residential electricity rate of $0.1856/kWh, giving about $113 a year. It is an electricity-only estimate and does not include purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Electrolux ELFE7337*** for its size?
80th percentile once size is factored in. That means its size-adjusted efficiency is a real factor in the running-cost figure above; its capacity plays a large role too.
