I guess then I will not buy any appliance. Literally, every refrigerator, stove, TV etc that I buy, I first look at the power consumed and then the rating. Then okay we open it up to the scrutiny of my wife for the looks and other features. No way. If it comes to it, I'm bringing my own battery bank and measurement devices to test the appliances on site. The cost of owning a thing in the long run heavily includes how much it eats.
