Quick answer

How to estimate costs in this category

Kitchen appliances vary widely in power and runtime. Ovens and air fryers draw high wattage for short sessions, while dishwashers and slow cookers may run longer at lower average power. Use each calculator with the wattage and schedule from your own appliance.

Each calculator below opens with example wattage and usage you can replace with figures from your appliance label, energy label, or plug-in meter. Enter your own electricity price per kWh for the most useful result.
