Is it worth it? Am I able to ride it everyday or in case for getting groceries? I like the design of this bicycle. Anything which I should watch out for?
They are heavy as hell and Impossible to climb a hill with. There is no place to carry anything and no places to mount racks. It’s not really a practical bicycle.

These aren’t build to be practical bicycles, take look at LWB recumbent bicycles instead.
Easy Racer style recumbents look cool, are fun to ride, and you can use them as everyday bicycle. (But they like smooth roads, and have larger turning radius)

for me they are super uncomfortable to ride. the angle of crank to saddle verges on recumbent territory which would be fine if your torso was angled back, but you have to lean your torso super far forward to reach the handlebars. you can’t stand up on the cranks to climb hills… just not a comfortable ride.

Terrible bike for just about everything/anything a bike could be used for.
