“21.8 cu ft versus 21.6 cu ft. 21.8 cu ft versus 21.6 cu ft--I see these two different sizes for the RF220NCTA__ refrigerators often though I get the impression from an earlier question answered by Ms. Samsung that the fridge is 21.8 cu ft. My question is the cost per year on the energy guide--when I see listings that state 21.8 cu ft, it usually says the yearly cost to run is $76 but when it says 21.6 cu ft it says it only costs $46. Can you clear this up?”

Hi Curious in NY, The accurate and current measurement of the RF220NCTASR is 21.8 cu ft, and the estimated operating cost is $76 per year based on Energy Star's standards which were updated in September 2014. It's possible the other capacity and cost estimates you've seen were based on the prior standards. The Refrigerator itself didn't change, but the new information reflects actual usable space (e.g., without the ice maker) and energy use to maintain a lower temperature. Thanks for your interest, Ms. Samsung
