UPO UCN63DW fridge-freezer, new inverter model — electricity €1.62/month, Lahti

UPO UCN63DW inverter fridge-freezer, brand new in box. UPO makes many models and this is the most premium (best). (Note: collection or delivery in the week commencing 5 Jan 2026.)

Typical listing price is around €800+.

If electricity costs €0.10/kWh, the monthly running cost is €1.62.

Attractive satin white finish and the same side panels as found on more expensive side-by-side models.

Exceptionally quiet and under 200 kWh annual consumption.

This is achieved with inverter compressor technology familiar from air-source heat pumps.

(On–off compressor technology was banned in the EU from air-source heat pumps a few years ago because it was power-hungry.)

Inverter compressors will arrive en masse in fridges next year — they are more durable, quieter, at least 20% more efficient and give steadier cooling.

One of the biggest improvements in home refrigeration this millennium.

The appliance has a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Old Mikko has sold appliances for 60 years and this model truly gets him excited.
