The CUB Great Northern is a premium 160-litre upright bar fridge with triple glazed LOW E glass and security lock, priced slightly above category average. It's well-suited for entertaining spaces where visibility and brand presence matter, though its operating noise is marginally higher than peers.

Overview

At $1367, the CUB Great Northern sits $35 above the category average of $1332, positioning it in the premium segment. Its 43 dB noise level is 1 dB above the category average of 42 dB, suggesting slightly more audible compressor operation. With a daily consumption of 2.1 kWh, it aligns closely with typical bar fridge efficiency, translating to approximately $227 annually in running costs—roughly $40 more than the category average of $187/year.

The CUB Great Northern consumes 2.1 kWh daily, equating to approximately 766.5 kWh annually. At typical Australian electricity rates (using the category average running cost as reference), this translates to roughly $227 per year in operating costs. This is moderately efficient for a 160-litre glass-door unit, though approximately $40 higher than the category average—a trade-off for the premium triple glazed LOW E glass construction that reduces heat loss.

Bottom Line

The CUB Great Northern is a premium choice for branded entertainment venues prioritising product visibility and security, though higher running costs and marginally increased noise mean it's not the most economical category option. Best suited to hospitality settings where aesthetic impact and lockable storage justify the $35 premium over category average.
