Costco's Hisense 8000 BTU unit for $260 is a better deal because it is more efficient and qualfies for utility company rebates.

Even without the rebates, the higher efficiency and benefit of the inverter will recoup the money in one summer. This deal's old, discontinued TCL is a bad deal. I'd only consider it for about $100 and only since it can be wall-mounted and only for a very small space where it would see very light use.
Most inverter window units have a "dry" mode that runs the compressor and fan at its lowest power level putting out continuous cool air with no set temperature while consuming about 1 kWh every few hours. The 8000 BTU Hisense I just installed is using about 1 kWh every four or five hours in "dry" mode while keeping the room at a very comfortable 69 degrees F. This unit has been a game changer and a great investment for this summer. Cooling my house went from over $1/hr. to about $1.5/day just by cooling with this unit instead of the whole house with an old central AC.
The 12000 BTU Midea from Costco would cost about 50% more to run than the 8000 BTU model, but would keep a larger room cool. These 8000 BTU units have been working in So. Cal. keeping 250 Sq. Ft. bedrooms in a 100 year-old house with leaky wooden sash windows very comfortable while keeping energy consumption at a level that won't cause sticker shock when I get my summer power bill. No more $600 to $700 per month power bills each summer is a nice thing.
Also keep in mind that most utilities will be implementing "summer" rates starting July 1 which raises the per kWh by about $0.06 to $0.07 per kWh. Those pennies add up fast when being spent continuously on a hot summer day. Not just your AC, but everything require electricity will cost about 25% more to run during those summer rates months. And it goes up even more per kWh once your consumption in a billing cycle goes past certain tier thresholds.
