About the Premium Levella PWMF220VW

The Premium Levella PWMF220VW is a 2.2 cu ft front load washing machine certified by ENERGY STAR. Its official test figure is 110 kWh of electricity a year, which at the U.S. average price of 18.19¢ per kWh comes to $20 a year, or $220 over a typical 11-year life.

That is 11% less energy than the federal maximum for this type of washer (124 kWh a year), a saving of about $3 a year compared with a model that only just meets the standard.

Among 243 front load models it ranks #178 for running cost. The cheapest model of this type would save $142 in electricity over 11 years, though it may differ in size and features.

If you want the same type and a similar size for less to run, the Crown CRNWM280W00 uses 39 kWh a year and would save about $142 over 11 years.
