Midea MDUDPA-35AEN8-BB0

The Midea MDUDPA-35AEN8-BB0 is certified at 382 kWh per year, roughly $72 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 11% of the median certified dehumidifier (rank 281 of 481). The same unit costs $47 a year in North Dakota but $178 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
