I don't think you'll see any increase in your bill at all. On the contrary, we've experienced a significant drop in our bill since not using our large oven during the summer months.

Hi, Zahid, I haven't experienced a real difference in my electric bills since I bought this oven. Since the oven is used every day for at least one meal (most days it's used for lunch and dinner; some days for all three meals) I believe that the additional cost for electric power is not a big issue. I really like this appliance; it's versatility is outstanding. I sincerely hope that, if you get one, your additional power cost is also minimal. Good luck. Anne

I have not noticed a change to my electric bill since we got it. I believe it's pretty low whatt so I don't think any change will be that significant.

It certainly won't add to it. And if you cook more meals in this and use the full-size oven less in hit months, it might even help. I've turned on my big oven all of twice this summer...and it's been a VERY hot summer where I live, sonot using the big oven's been nice.

Our electric bill increased less than$8/mo (run heater 8-9 hrs/day in our sunporch here in MI). Bear in mind we use the 1500 Edenpure. Recommend you use a 1500 - cost might be more, but it will pay for itself.

Mine runs quite a bit. I use it during the day when I'm not home and at night so my propane furnace doesn't need to run so much in my 800 sq. ft. house. In October my electric bill only went up $15.

We have not had that issue....I always warm the oven on the #1 setting. After the light goes off and the unit warms for roughly 10 minutes, I then turn the knob to #2 just before cooking a pizza. We had some issues the first time we used it and the pizza wasn't perfect but once we figured out our system, it has been perfect ever since. We just started pre-making pizzas when we are having people over and only cooking them half way earlier in the day and then finishing the cooking when we are ready to serve. They turn out great and you don't have the mess of preparation while you have guests. (Unless its a pizza party and some of the fun is having everyone prepare their own) We have not had that issue....I always warm the oven on the #1 setting.

My husband is working outside of Tonopah NV which is pretty cold. He is living in the motorhome and leaves the heater on 52 while at work. The power bill increased by about $40 dollars which isn't bad when you think he presently has 3 heaters going 24/7 as he has a heater in the back bedroom and one under the motorhome.

I made the mistake of leaving it running for a few weeks this winter so that it was ready whenever I wanted to use it. Big mistake. My electricity bill went from an average of $60-$75, to a whopping $235! Unfortunately, it's not really an option for me to keep it heated during the cold winter months (I live in Sacramento, CA).

It's hard to say exactly. I keep this one on all winter downstairs and I keep an oil filled heater on all winter upstairs. My electric bill is about $100.00 a month more for both running pretty much all the time. But, my gas bill is way lower than it would normally be so, it balances out. My gas pack air handler doesn't come on unless it gets real cold. It saves wear and tear on that so, I figure all in all it's a good deal. When it gets extremely cold this heater wont keep up but, neither will the oil filled. It was 5 degrees earlier in the week with a two day high of 23. The air handler came on a lot. My iheater is several years old now. It's still working. It's hard to say exactly. I keep this one on all winter downstairs and I keep an oil filled heater on all winter upstairs.

My electric bill was not increased by more than $20/month, but, I live in Colorado so I typically needed to use it only to cool the room off and then could turn it off at night. We were probably losing more energy from not having adequate insulation in our attic! We've moved since we last had to use the AC, but I was sure thankful to have it when needed. I think one thing I would change if I had to go back and buy it again would be to choose a unit with an auto on/off feature. The user must turn this one off or on.

Sorry, can't answer that question. I live in Texas, in an apt complex that is "total electric". I negotiate a "fixed budget" rate per month, that renews every year, up or down, depending on usage over the past year. My apt has two floors of living space (1350 sq ft.) and this past year, I paid $174/mo., but I live alone. For me, the trade off of higher electric bills, w one of these plugged in the wall of each room (6 total wall plugs plus a tabletop unit) for cleaner ambient air, is a no-brainer.

This is the wife who pays the electric bill and that isn't the case for us. It is only drawing from the electric when it is actively heating water. If you read the review we posted you can see we use a lot of hot water. There had been no significant change in our bill. Also it cuts the cost of my gas bill since I no longer have to keep 50 gallons of water hot. At worst the cost negates itself between the two. Lastly I can't put panels on my roof the produce natural gas. The next thing the plumber will say is you don't want to get one of the electric heaters because the elements will get scales. While this is true I have seen plenty of videos and if you just perform some simple maintenence it is not a problem. And by simple I mean flushing the system at least once a year with white vinegar. Remember the plumber not only hooks up the water, he does the gas too so he makes more money that way. Also most tankless gas water heaters retail for about $1300 and that is the one he will try to sell you.

I personally didn't notice my electric being any more expensive, but everyone's usage is different. If you run it quite a bit I would expect to see maybe a few dollars extra a month. This is a great heater I would highly recommend it.

in my city the electric cost is 9.5 cents per kelo watt hour.the unit is 1500 watts on high.so to run it on high it would coust me 14.25 cents per hour.on energy saving mode the unit is 950 watts and it would cost me 10 cents per hour.

We have two I was against the first but I told my husband to go ahead and buy one thinking I would prove him wrong but guess what I was wrong the first year we saved $800. That was checking out our gas bill and electric bill, this year we bought the newer model but when they started putting a limit on the gas here in Mi. We brought the other one in and run both our electric bill was around $325 we figured we saved money by running them both plus we didn't have to worry about running out of gas. In a normal winter we only run one and if I remember right the electric ran between $175 to $225 I hope this helps you we have been using one for 5 or 6 years now.

I absolutely love this little heater! My electric bill dropped from $150 to $50. Yes mine turns off and on sometimes quickly but it is producing heat. I changed the mode around and back. It got better. I would contact them and ask what can be done if it persists.

I hang laundry outside from about April until thanksgiving, then it get too cold, and I would say that my electric bill decreases by about $100 a month, we are a family of 6 although 2 are at college at the present. I would say that the decrease is mostly through not using the tumble dryer.

Depends on your electricity $ rate and how much you run the heater. Comparing my electric bill last month not running the heater to this month running it on the high setting non-stop day and night, it has increased my bill about $17/month. It is the only heat source we have used this month to heat our 1500 sq ft house, with over night temps down to freezing.
