Fridge appliance

With so many options available today, choosing the right appliances for your home can be a tough decision.

The most important factor to consider in buying a new appliance, whether it's a new fridge or just a night light, is its energy efficiency.

The easiest way to make sure that you are buying an efficient product is to look for the ENERGY STAR logo.

Appliances with the ENERGY STAR logo use less energy so they save you money and are good for the environment.

Using second-hand or borrowed appliances can be tempting, especially when money is tight, but you should also consider the cost to run the appliance.

A second-hand fridge might not be much cheaper when you factor in the energy costs to run it. An old refrigerator can cost up to twice as much to run as a new ENERGY STAR model.
