    last year i had to spring for an AC because mine crapped out and my co parent was 7 months pregnant. This thing not only was better than the one we had, it brought down the energy bills, now it's the only thing that cools my house, and it's at least twice the size or more of what it can cool. And it still manages to keep the whole house cool enough. Last year energy bill was 180., only 40 this month. Big deal imo.

    Had to buy an emergency AC for sleeping while my main 10+yr old 3ton unit died and needed replacement in Central Florida during our recent middle august 96+ degree heatwave. Installed the unit, plugged it in, and was pleasantly surprised at how quiet the unit was, while rapidly bringing the 350sqft room's 90 degree temp (AT 11 PM) down to a nice dehumidified 80 degrees in about an hour.

    Easy to install, had mor confidence I would not drop unit out of window! This is by far the quietest window unit I have ever owned! TV will be back at normal listening levels without having to raise and lower volume every time the unit cycles. Don't let the odd shape and bracket deter your purchase. One thing to consider, you will need to do something about the sides, if you use blinds they will stop at the unit. I used the black foam side AC panels that were available at my home center, problem solved. First ever review for a window AC unit.

    Ok this is NOT a paid endorsement. I'm not an HVAC professional, but it's a hobby (like, I read ASHRAE handbooks for fun). These units are remarkable. The U-shape makes them less restrictive on light than a hose floor AC unit. And their efficiency is at least twice of a floor model. A key to them being quiet is that all the "noisy parts" are on the other side of the window. Which is just this sort of frakken obvious thing that you wonder why it took anybody so long (which is often the case with really good ideas). It just works. I just bought a second one for my home office.

    I was skeptical at first about how quiet this unit would be and was proven wrong. It is whispered quiet and installation was painless, wifi was one button job after downloading the MS Home app.

    So, at the end of June 2022, my central AC decided to stop running in the middle of a heat wave (of course it did, why wouldn't it? O_o). After spending two days without AC, and an internal home temperature of 89 degrees, I had had enough. Decided to pick up this unit based on the great reviews, and Energy Star most efficient rating, and I am very impressed so far. So impressed, that two days later I picked up a second. One is installed in the front living room, and the other is installed in the Master bedroom. Those areas allow for the greatest amount of airflow, and with a ceiling fan keep the entire home very comfortable (both units set at 73°F during the day. 70°F degrees at night). It's now the middle of July 2022, and after 30 days I can honestly say these units are hands down remarkable. I even checked my utility bill, and saved $150.00 on my cooling expenses!! The units aren't super heavy, maybe 60 lbs in the box. Installed easily, and are extraordinarily quiet during operation. I clean the filters as recommended every two weeks, (and because I want to take really good care of them I have thought about perhaps fabricating an accessory shroud filter for the compressor, condenser coil, condenser fan, and power electronics in the exterior section.) to keep dust, and debris out of the external part of the unit.

    If you're living like me you know what you want to spend then you see this. Yes it's worth it, when I leave the job site I open the app and Boom!💥 it's nice when I get in the door. Fully controllable through the app and remote. And boy is it quiet. My gf sits near the a.c. and her headset (online gaming)would pick up the old one. Not this thing, there's no cranking up your TV to hear it. Incredible A.C.

    Picked up this 8k btu for our bedroom after our central air became inoperable. I needed quiet ac operation, so i purchased an inveter style window unit. I did some reading and found the midea had the best price available. Completely blown away on how quiet and efficient this unit is. Watch a you tube vid for installation tips . Directions plus a vid help the overall installation process. The product is a modern looking design with swinging louvers and a pretty nice remote. More light enters the room because of the U shape design. One person can install the 8000 with no problem.(50 lb lift). I find that the temp reading on the display to be a few degrees higher than actual room temp., just compensate for the difference and all is fine. Beautifully quiet and powerful enough to easily cool an average size bedroom or living room. If your in the market for a window ac,definitely look at the Midea lineup. They are a bit more costly than the traditional window shakers because of the inverter technology. If you need quiet operation and efficiency,then the midea inverter ac is just the ticket for summer heat. Very glad i made this purchase while i contemplate my central air repairs.

    The air conditioner fit right in the window and the bracing that comes with it are super sturdy. The air conditioner puts out super cool air and is very quiet.
