Midea MAD35C1AWS-A

The Midea MAD35C1AWS-A is certified at 388 kWh per year, roughly $71 at the national average — though seasonal use means your real bill lands in a few months, not twelve. Efficiency-wise it's unremarkable in a good way: within 15% of the median certified dehumidifier (rank 336 of 519). The same unit costs $51 a year in Nevada but $205 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
