It added about $35 to my monthly electric bill between July to September. I have it installed upstairs in my home cooling 2 bedrooms (around 500 sqft) which have the doors open as that location becomes unbearably hot in the summer.
Initially the AC made a bad impression as it arrived with the fan louver detached and leaked. But the louver is easily snapped back into place and the leaking was resolved by simply tightening the bottom drain cap.
I've had it on 24/7 since I got it and it performs like a champ barely making any noise (Auto Mode seems to keep the fan on low most of the time). I keep it on Auto Cool mode at 72F. I've felt it put out cold air only using 20 watts; the inverter technology really does work and it's great IMO.
The dehumidifier function did not work well for me however. The unit used 700 watts when in dehumidification mode set at 72F when outside temps where around 78-80F, was loud and didn't cool as well when in standard Cool Mode.
I have not tried the heating function out yet but it sounds like it could be a pain as it requires a drain hose due to condensation. Also I've heard that heat mode will only work efficiently if temps are above 42F but I'm not absolutely sure of this.
You can also optimize efficiency and cooling by insulating the exhaust hose. I wrapped the exhaust hose with bubble wrap, then aluminum foil and finally sealed it all with plastic wrap. If you don't want to go the ghetto MacGyver route; you can buy insulating foam wrap easily online that's designed for portable AC exhaust hoses. Regardless what you do; make sure you insulate the hose as it will decrease energy usage and improve cooling.
Overall, I would recommend this but the most ideal solution is to install a mini-split heat pump in your home as it is a more permanent and elegant solution. Some states have incredible rebates for first time mini-split heat pump buyers (Maine has $2,000) so perhaps it would be better to determine if your state has decent rebate programs before buying this.
