Model
Premium Levella PRF7350HW
Rank #496 means 495 of the 1,000 refrigerator models we track cost less to run each year; the 33rd efficiency percentile means it uses less energy for its size than 33% of those models.
What does the Premium Levella PRF7350HW cost to run per year?
Do the math and the Premium Levella PRF7350HW's $64/yr puts it at rank #496 of 1,000, right around the class average. It uses 11% less energy than the U.S. federal standard model in its class, which would cost about $71/yr to run, a saving of roughly $7 a year. Adjusted for size, it is only more efficient than 33% of refrigerator models we track, so part of its running cost comes from its capacity rather than efficiency alone. At 7.3 cu ft, it is a mid-size refrigerator for the class, which runs 1.2 to 31.7 cu ft; 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 Magic Chef MCDR740WEF at $64/yr runs a little cheaper and the Tcl TRT07T4** at $64/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 Premium Levella PRF7350HW's $64/yr adds up to roughly $768 in electricity alone, before purchase price or repairs.

By the numbers
The Premium Levella PRF7350HW 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 $64/yr, here is what the Premium Levella PRF7350HW adds up to before purchase price, water, or repairs enter the math.
Left running for a decade at today's US average rate, the Premium Levella PRF7350HW costs about $640. That is roughly $70 less than a standard model in its class, which would run closer to $710 over the same ten years.
How the Premium Levella PRF7350HW compares
The refrigerator class we track runs from $8 to $149 a year. At $64/yr, it sits right on the class median of $64, and it is about $56 a year more than the cheapest refrigerator to run at $8. Against the US federal standard model for its class at about $71/yr, the Premium Levella PRF7350HW uses 11% less energy.
What drives its running cost
At 7.3 cu ft, the Premium Levella PRF7350HW 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, putting it squarely in the middle of the class on the size lever that drives most of the cost.
- Interior volume. Cubic feet of interior volume is the first thing that scales a fridge's running cost up or down, before compressor quality even enters the picture.
- Counter depth vs standard depth. Counter-depth models sit flush with cabinets but usually hold less interior volume than a standard-depth model of the same width, which can nudge the per-cubic-foot running cost either way.
- Compressor technology. Newer variable-speed (inverter) compressors modulate output instead of cycling fully on and off, which tends to use less energy for the same cooling job than an older fixed-speed compressor.
- Placement and ventilation. A fridge pushed tight against a wall or cabinet, or standing next to an oven or in direct sun, works harder to shed the heat its compressor produces, which can push real-world cost above the published figure.
Common questions
Is the Premium Levella PRF7350HW cheap to run?
It is about average. At $64 a year it ranks #496 of 1,000 refrigerator models we track, close to the middle of its class on running cost.
How much does the Premium Levella PRF7350HW cost per month?
Roughly $5.32/mo, spreading the $64/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 344 kWh from ENERGY STAR and multiply it by the US average residential electricity rate of $0.1856/kWh, giving about $64 a year. It is an electricity-only estimate and does not include purchase price, water, or installation.
How efficient is the Premium Levella PRF7350HW for its size?
33rd percentile once size is factored in, a fairly typical result for the class.
