Our read & the right size
At 1.04 kWh/day, the FRESH FRB-23RS-HC runs more efficient than 71% of the 272 comparable 1-door reach-in refrigerators we track — about $14/yr under the median comparable model.
A single-door reach-in (~20 cu ft) fits a prep station, a small café, or a tight spot on the line. Choose it when one section holds a shift's product — step up to two doors before you're opening it constantly.
21.22 cu ft is roughly 1.1× a typical home refrigerator — about 11 full sheet pans or ~18 cases of product (varies with shelving).
