My DUO conditioner is used to cool a minimally insulated 400 CF attic room, and it does an amazing job. I love hearing the compressor quietly spooling up and down as it adjusts to the cooling loads. The directional louver has an amazing range. I have the vent hose laying across a small bed, as the exhaust window is on one side of the bed, the AC the other. No other AC would fit in this location. I layered a blanket over the exhaust hose to insulate the hose heat from the room. And there's no condensate pan to worry about. Only caveat is the plastic exhaust nozzle ring was broken, but quickly fixed with some crazy glue. And love the android controller. Having a 2-way heat exhaust flow is the only venting system that makes sense. Why would you want to exhaust your cooled room air to the exterior? Why aren't there more of these?

With its sleek design and user-friendly features, it offers a convenient and efficient way to beat the heat during the summer months. One of the standout features of the MAP12S1TB is its portability. It comes with built-in castor wheels and handles, allowing you to easily move it from one room to another without any hassle. This makes it a versatile option for those who want to cool multiple areas of their home or office. The cooling performance of this air conditioner is impressive.

Review by RetiredMarine303 04/07/2023Due to the window fitment situaiton, we HAD to use a portable AC. Tried Honeywell before and it always smelled weird. Bought this one and doesnt really smell when it runs which is awesome. Its an amazing work horse even in humid weather, this thing is a beast when it comes to cooling and making the room feel great. Best portable AC Ive had thus far, glad I took a chance at the price point because it was a bit more expensive than others, but it was worth it.
Review by John 28/09/2022Got this unit to use during an unexpected Blackout in a heatwave.. it works Great on my little portable Generator.. doesnt overload it on startup.. now one of my 3 Central air units is Down and parts are no longer available.. this Unit is stepping up like a Champ cooling off the whole greatroom, foyer, and kitchen of my house just as quick as the broken unit did when it worked! I also got it to use in my mobile office bus when im parked and working..(the bus A/C only works when driving) only downfall is this unit is very heavy to try and lift to take it down the basement for storage, I wish it had like a better handle for taking down and up steps. definitely recommend it its quiet enough to use in a bedroom.. and with it being inverter it doesnt clunk on and off all the time it slows down and speeds up softly..
Review by Christopher 23/07/2022This think is a life saver! My AC unit went out and I went and got this product. I have a 1 month old baby and needed a cool house during a southern summer. It only took me 5 minutes to install and have it up and going. It instantly starting cooling down the house! Within 2 hours we had the house freezing cold and loving life. Couldn't recommend this product more!
Review by Fuzzy wuzzy 11/07/2022Quietest than any portable AC I've had, and cools much better than my previous units. Love that the compressor and exhaust fan ramps down in low mode for whisper operation. It does have a bit of a high pitch whine from the inverter that may be annoying to some in low mode. It's fine for me. Installed into a patio door. Included hardware wasn't long enough so I had to to fab up a cover. My only complaint is the tube being so bulky with the horizontal adapter that it butts up against the frame of the door. Wish Midea would provide an extension piece or more options on mounting.
Review by Mike 12/06/2022Great air conditioner. Easy install and easy to move around. Cools half the house (initially bought to cool main living room/dining/kitchen area) which is a bonus. Don't even need to use lowest cooling setting. This unit is awesome.
Review by Freddy v 12/06/2022I'm a Costco member. Costco is known for having some of the best shoppers in the world, to stock their stores. Also, because he remembers there's only a certain percentage of profit they can have from wholesale. I bought this because Costco chooses only to carry this air conditioner so it tells you something about its quality. It does what it supposed to do however, I would give it five stars but the instructions are not excellent, and can be frustrating for some people, including myself. If Medea just read the reviews on YouTube, where it has its instructions, they can easily remedy this. We got a unit which had one of the coupling for the attachment hose already attached to the unit. So it was confusing. Trying to attach it to the window. Because we had a coupling that was not made for it. After spending 20 minutes trying to figure this out, we finally did. But they can easily remedy this by showing unboxing video from start to finish. Instead, there's a bunch of edits in the video that cut out so much of the information it became another 60 minutes just to figure everything out. The unit is great though if that's what it's supposed to. I'm not sure of how much energy it takes but so far so good.
Review by Dehydrated Dave 16/07/20234 Stars because of cheap tabs on hose .Where it hooks to to window panel . One broke already in 3 months. Very poor design. And not a air tight fit when hose attached to window panel. Same thing happened to my friend. After I told him to buy this unit. Is it possible to get a replacement on the end of the hose.
Review by Jeb. 08/07/2022Sounds like when you put baseball cards in the spokes of your bike as a kid. Was purchased because it was advertised as being quiet, It's not! It is placed in a bedroom and when it cycles, here come the baseball card noise.
