Checking the Amana V19sDx65(3B)? At DOE's test use, it uses 714 kWh of electricity a year with an electric water heater and an electric dryer, and 7,286 gallons of water. Its IMEF, the cubic feet of laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, dryer included, is 1.57. That equals its class median and the federal minimum.


Energy and water per year

714 kWh a year with an electric water heater and an electric dryer

Computed by this site from the registry's IMEF and drum capacity at DOE's test use of 295 cycles a year. IMEF counts the washer, heating its water electrically, and the electric dryer's work on what the spin leaves wet — so this is the total for that kind of home. How it is calculated

Not published: The washer's own share, without the dryer

DOE's database files IMEF, which folds the dryer in; only ENERGY STAR splits the machine out, and it lists this model under no matching rating.

The total above, and the IMEF it comes from, stand as filed.

Not published: A home with a gas water heater, a gas dryer or line drying

DOE's rating assumes electric water heating and an electric dryer and files no split between the machine, the water heating and the drying.

Such a home uses less electricity than the total above; how much less, no registry says for this model.

7,287 gallons of water a year

Computed from the registry's IWF and drum capacity at the same 295 cycles a year.

Not published: What the water costs

water and sewer rates are set by thousands of local utilities and no free national source publishes them.

The gallons above are the figure to multiply by your own water and sewer rate.

This model is rated exactly at the federal minimum IMEF for its class, like many others; no rank is claimed inside that tie.

What you can do. Federal minimum means this model uses as much energy as the law allows for its class. 218 washers in the same class file a higher IMEF; at the same drum size and use, a higher IMEF is less energy a year. See the most efficient washers in each class

Installed cost and service life

Not published: Installed cost range

NLR REMDB's cost model needs the washer's own yearly energy use, which only ENERGY STAR files — and it lists no matching rating for this model.

Ask retailers or installers for a written quote that names this model number. The yearly energy, water and running cost on this page do not depend on it.

Service life: DOE’s cost database assumes 11 years for top-loading washers. That is a class assumption, not this model’s rating or a warranty — no registry publishes either.

Safety record

No CPSC recall names this model.

Checked against the CPSC recall database. CPSC does not publish a model-level match for this product category, so this list is curated by hand from the manufacturer's recall filings.

What these figures mean

The 714 kWh figure is calculated by this site; the registry doesn't list it. The site takes the model's IMEF and its capacity, the drum's volume in cubic feet, here 3.8, and applies DOE's yearly test count of cycles. Because IMEF includes the energy to dry each load, part of that figure belongs to the dryer. The data does not say how large that part is. The figure also assumes an electric water heater and an electric dryer, so it does not apply as stated to a home with gas for either. A machine-only figure is not available. Only ENERGY STAR splits out the washer's own share, and it lists no matching rating for V19sDx65(3B). For the same reason, no installed price range is shown. The registry values come from DOE's Compliance Certification Database, retrieved 2026-10-25. The steps are set out in how the yearly energy and water figures are calculated.

Read the rest

The 7,286 gallons figure comes from the model's IWF, the gallons of water used per cycle for each cubic foot of drum. Here the IWF is 6.5. This site multiplies that factor by the 3.8 cubic feet of capacity and by the same yearly test count of cycles. The registry files only the IWF, not the yearly total. A household that runs more or fewer loads than DOE's test assumes will use a different amount of water. The page does not state what this water costs. No free national source publishes local water and sewer rates, so any cost would be an estimate. Your own water bill is the only reliable basis for that figure.

The comparison group is the 870 models registered as top-loading, standard size. The median IMEF in that group is 1.57, and this model's IMEF of 1.57 matches it exactly. That value is also the federal minimum for the class. 652 of the 870 models are rated at that same minimum. The page therefore claims no rank for this model within that tie. A higher IMEF would mean more laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, and this model meets the standard without exceeding it. The running cost is not given in this text. It depends on your own utility's electricity tariff, so the page calculates it from your ZIP code. Other models in this class are listed under all clothes washer pages.
