Model
Liebherr MRB 2410
Rank #204 means 203 of the 1,000 refrigerator models we track cost less to run each year; the 92nd efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 92% of those models.
What does the Liebherr MRB 2410 cost to run per year?
At about $43 a year, the Liebherr MRB 2410 undercuts most refrigerator models we track on running cost, rank #204 of 1,000. It uses 28% less energy than the U.S. federal standard model in its class, which would cost about $60/yr to run, a saving of roughly $17 a year. Size-adjusted, this model beats 92% of refrigerator models we track on efficiency, one of the stronger results in its class. Counter-depth construction, which this model has, generally means a shallower cabinet and less interior volume than a standard-depth model the same width, a tradeoff worth knowing if you are comparing it on cubic feet.
Immediately around it on the leaderboard, the Rca RFR464-B-WHITE-COM at $43/yr runs a little cheaper and the U-Line 3018RB at $43/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 Liebherr MRB 2410's $43/yr adds up to roughly $516 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.
By the numbers
The Liebherr MRB 2410 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 $43/yr, here is what the Liebherr MRB 2410 adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Liebherr MRB 2410 costs about $430. That is roughly $170 less than a standard model in its class, which would run closer to $600 over the same ten years.
How the Liebherr MRB 2410 compares
The refrigerator class we track runs from $8 to $149 a year. At $43/yr, it runs about $21 a year cheaper than the class median of $64, and it is about $35 a year more than the cheapest refrigerator to run at $8. Against the US federal standard model for its class at about $60/yr, the Liebherr MRB 2410 uses 28% less energy.
What drives its running cost
At 11.5 cu ft, the Liebherr MRB 2410 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 Liebherr MRB 2410 cheap to run?
Yes. Its $43/yr running cost puts it at rank #204 of 1,000, below what most refrigerator models we track cost to run.
How much does the Liebherr MRB 2410 cost per month?
About $3.56 a month, which is the $43 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: 230 kWh from ENERGY STAR times the US average of $0.1856/kWh comes to about $43 a year. It covers electricity only, not the purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Liebherr MRB 2410 for its size?
92nd percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
