Cool

I put this in my bedroom at the far end of the house from my unit and it keeps the room nice and cool. It is a little loud when it automatically comes on but you get used to it.

Perfect portable air conditioner

This is the perfect air conditioner for our enclosed front porch. It cools quickly, runs quietly, and with the timer function you can set it and forget it.

Good purchase. Works well.

Our daughter lives in a small apartment, and maintenance was not getting their air conditioner fixed fast enough. Their cat had to stay there all day during the heat. We ordered this online and she went and picked it up and installed it. It cooled off the apartment pretty quickly, considering how hot it was and they were able to deal until the maintenance could actually fix their unit properly. She lives in an efficiency apartment, and it was able to cool the whole place down. Even better in just the room it was in. Good purchase.

Love this thing!

I moved to a two story townhouse, and the AC doesn’t cool the upstairs bedroom good enough. I bought this, and it’s perfect! It cools the bedroom so well that sometimes I have to turn it off for a while. Love having the remote!

Stopgap measure only. Not for over 100° heat in AZ

Stopgap that handles small room up to 95° outside temp okay--not so good after that. Good conserving elec.use. Wheeled so moves good. Longer hose for exhaust than other brand.

TOO LOUD

We purchased this for our small apartment. Way too loud and arrived damaged. Pick up and return was a bit chaotic, but overall was done as best as possible. We upgraded to the 10000 BTU unit, same manufacturer and was very happy.

Unsatisfactory Performance

I bought this unit end of September of 2025. I used it briefly in 2025 (let's say one month); then I took it out to use for 2026 summer (around 3 months). The unit first had a P1 error then EL OC error and finally stopped working. I probably used the unit for total of 4 ish months. I requested repair but haven't heard from Midea ever since the first email regarding it.

I must have purchased a defective unit. Used it only a few hours and a P1 code appeared. Unit stopped cooling; being returned to store.

Not good

I just returned them. It's like if causes electrical overcharge, it's noisy and it doesn't cool the set temperature
