It can also peg around 450-480 watts periodically when settling down from medium to low or when first kicking into low when the compressor surges, and then levels out at around 250-300 watts.
Medium is pretty capable of bringing my living room/kitchen area which is around 400sq ft or so I'd say with other rooms doors shut, from 85 degrees to 76 or so within 30 minutes to an hour.
YMMV depending on your area, it's generally in the high 70's to low 80's outdoor temps here at the moment, but it can reach 95+ in the middle of summer, so I can't comment on those sorts of conditions just yet.
Fan speed settings more or less control compressor load along with it on these units. If you set the fan to low, expect the 250-300 watt load range, medium upper 700 watt range, high over 1K watts. So you can't have for instance just the fan on low and the compressor running at full load, or the fan on high and the compressor at its lowest load, these aren't actually 'smart'. Ceiling fans or floor standing fans will certainly help to distribute the cold air throughout more than one area/room.
Since temps aren't that high yet I generally just have mine in low all the time with continuous fan mode, so when the compressor turns off entirely, the fan still runs at a load of 10 to 12 watts to help with any moisture accumulation in the tank.
If my asshole cats unplug it and the house heats up into the mid 80's I'll run it on medium until it gets down to 76-77 and switch it back to low.
When I get it plugged in again I'll correct any errors I might have made, I put a U-shaped window unit in the living room cause I'm less concerned about my cats messing with that, and will be moving the portable to my bedroom and can recheck the load then.

What's the best unit out there right now for heating and cooling a small shop. I really don't care if it's split, windows, or portable. Just want a steal on a unit that will do the job and hopefully not croak after a year's worth of use.
They should. They come with the cheaper remote and the manual. Not the original manual, just the manual printed on one big paper.
I bought 3 of these units from Walmart. One was missing the remote, one has a broken hose bracket, another was missing the installation kit and the exhaust ring.

It may also not be enough to heat your shop depending on the size and temperature differential.
