I wish there was a law that when adverts contain claims (high this, low that) they needed to be backed up with numbers immediately, not buried in the fine print.
Here we have a claim of "high EER" but no detail, so I went digging. Claimed EER is 3.76 and COP is 4.02.
The recently posted $799 Kogan split claims "(EER) 3.52/3.42" , which is a very marginal difference. Maybe significant in an office or business where it runs all day, but in that case you probably want a major brand.
Going down a size will make much more difference in efficiency. The $599 5.2kW Kogan model (other brands are similar) has:
AEER/ACOP AEER: 4.06 (Cooling) | ACOP: 4.13 (Heating)
Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) 4.06/4.13
So this "High EFF" claim is very questionable, to put it mildly. 3/3.5 stars out of 10 is OK, but nothing special. Get a slightly smaller unit if you can.
Spend some of the $1000 difference on improved insulation and window treatments, and you will be miles ahead.
edit: this model seems to be rated under the old system (older model?), while others are rated under a new system.
Possibly it is more efficient at heating in colder climates like Melbourne. Poster, can you offer any detail to support the "high EER" claim?
