Does changing your "E" entry to this help at all?

,----
| (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
|       '(("U" "Unscheduled tasks"
| 	 todo '("TODO" "WAITING")
| 	 ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled tasks")
| 	  (org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'scheduled))))
| 	("E" "Effortless tasks"
| 	 todo '("TODO" "WAITING")
| 	 ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Effortless tasks")
| 	  (org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'regexp ":Effort:" 'todo '("APPT")))
| 	  (org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled nil)
| 	  (org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines nil)
| 	  (org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp nil)))))

By the way, the documentation for the `org-agenda-custom-commands'
variable says that the third entry should be "a single keyword for TODO
keyword searches", so the '("TODO" "WAITING") you have may be partly why
things are not working how you expect? You may want to try a compound
one like this:

,----
| (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
|       '(("U" "Unscheduled tasks"
| 	 todo '("TODO" "WAITING")
| 	 ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled tasks")
| 	  (org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'scheduled))))
| 	("E" "Effortless tasks"
| 	 ((todo "TODO")
| 	  (todo "WAITING"))
| 	 ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Effortless tasks")
| 	  (org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'regexp ":Effort:" 'todo '("APPT")))
| 	  (org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled nil)
| 	  (org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines nil)
| 	  (org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp nil)))))
