Honeywell TPFIT50APWK

Under the DOE test basis, the Honeywell TPFIT50APWK draws 516 kWh — about $97 at the U.S. average rate, concentrated in the months you actually run it. It sits near the bottom of the certified table — using 50% more than the median dehumidifier (rank 367 of 481) — so the state you live in matters more than usual. The same unit costs $64 a year in North Dakota but $241 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
