Model
Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2
Rank #104 means 103 of the 709 dishwasher models we track cost less to run each year; the 44th efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 44% of those models.
What does the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 cost to run per year?
At $42 a year to run, the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 is among the cheapest dishwasher models we track, ranking #104 of 709. It uses 26.7% less energy than the U.S. federal standard model in its class, which would cost about $57/yr to run, a saving of roughly $15 a year. Its 44th size-adjusted efficiency percentile is unremarkable, close to what a typical model in the class scores. At 12 place settings, it is a small dishwasher for the class, which runs 2 to 18 place settings; size and efficiency are the two levers behind the figure above, and this dataset does not carry a separate efficiency-factor column for this class.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24FI2 at $42/yr runs a little cheaper and the Samsung DW70H83YETR at $42/yr runs a little more, a sense of how tightly models are packed at this point in the ranking. A dishwasher typically stays in service for somewhere around 9 years; over that span, the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2's $42/yr adds up to roughly $378 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

By the numbers
The Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 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 $42/yr, here is what the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 costs about $420. That is roughly $150 less than a standard model in its class, which would run closer to $570 over the same ten years.
How the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 compares
The dishwasher class we track runs from $15 to $45 a year. At $42/yr, it runs about $2 a year cheaper than the class median of $44, and it is about $27 a year more than the cheapest dishwasher to run at $15. Against the US federal standard model for its class at about $57/yr, the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 uses 26.7% less energy.
What drives its running cost
At 12 place settings, the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 is a small dishwasher for its class, which spans 2 to 18 place settings with a median of 14 place settings, and smaller dishwasher models generally cost less to run for the same job, all else being equal.
- Place-setting capacity. A larger dishwasher heats more water per cycle, so bigger capacity generally means a higher annual energy figure, independent of how efficient the unit is.
- Water heating. The booster heater that brings water up to sanitizing temperature is usually the single largest electrical load in a dishwasher's cycle.
- Cycle length and drying method. Cycle selection, eco versus heavy, air-dry versus heated-dry, moves real running cost more than most owners realize for a given capacity.
Common questions
Is the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 cheap to run?
Yes, relatively. At $42 a year it ranks #104 of 709 dishwasher models we track, in the cheaper part of its class to run.
How much does the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 cost per month?
Roughly $3.48/mo, spreading the $42/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 225 kWh from ENERGY STAR and multiply it by the US average residential electricity rate of $0.1856/kWh, giving about $42 a year. It is an electricity-only estimate and does not include purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Fulgor Milano F6DWT24SS2 for its size?
44th 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.
