How these scores are built

  • Capacity — normalized 1 to 10 from capacityCuFt (cu ft), the same field for every model.
  • Features — normalized 1 to 10 from cycles (cycles), the same field for every model.
  • Practical — normalized 1 to 10 from type, the same field for every model.

The overall column is the weighted mean of those dimensions, so a model cannot buy its way up the table. Prices are typical street prices on Amazon and move; check the current one before deciding. Amazon links are affiliate links (tag: habilytics-20) at no extra cost to you.

Head-to-head

Down to two? These put a specific pair side by side and call a winner, including the cases where the cheaper model wins.
