Rheem Hybrid Electric (Heat Pump) Water Heater 50-gallon $1079 at HomeDepot

I have been keeping my eye on this for the past few months and it never seems to go on sale. Last February it did drop down to $999, but no sales at all for the last few months I’ve been looking .
Normally $1199, now on sale for $1079.
Well reviewed heater
