Great AC for the price.
First let me say my room was blazing hot hard to sleep at night, sweating at the slightest movement. I could not take it anymore so i purchased this window unit because fan were not the answer! I order online and picked up at store let me tell you it works wonders for my room now air so cold and has a bunch of settings and a remote can’t go wrong with that, i sleep great now i literally have to sleep with socks on and get under 2 blankets. It will cool off a decent sized room quickly just turn it on and let it do its job! Came with all the accessories you need so you do not have to buy anything extra. So if you’re thinking about picking up this AC dont hesitate its great if you’re on a budge or just need to get the job done. Its works great
Defective Fan
Fan stopped working just after 2 months. Bought this unit based on Consumer Reports review. In so much that it cooled the room, a fan should not fail after 2 months of limited use. Will be returning to Sam's and changing to a more proven company reputation.

Works great
This is used in my sons bedroom and cools it perfectly , I have two upstairs for two bedrooms, a den, and a bathroom and they have cooled the entire upstairs off great. I’m in Pennsylvania and on our 90 days my upstairs was still very comfortable. The ECO button works with the temperature outside. It will not run if you have it set at higher temperature than what it is outside!! My electric bill has not been crazy high since I purchased these. I am so glad I invested in new ones !
Works Well, but Poorly Designed Mounting System
This is kind of a tough review to write because in terms of its most basic functionality -- cooling the room -- it works well. But the mounting is so spectacularly horrid that I had to pull not one, but two stars. The bottom of the air-conditioner has no track to or lip firmly fit into the window sill and secure the air conditioner. Instead they provide a bag of clips and screws that require you to drill holes into your wooden or vinyl-clad windows. Seriously? If you live in a house with 100-year-old oak windows, you have to drill holes in them to mount an air conditioner? Without the clips, however, the air conditioner slips off the sill and falls inward on the bottom because there's no ridge to grab the sill; and the vertical mounting bracket is mounted offset to lean the air conditioner outward for drainage. The more sensible way to do it would have been to make the bottom exterior surface slightly sloped to channel the water out so the air conditioner itself could be mounted perpendicularly to the window. Another option would have been to include stops that could be attached to the bottom of the unit and used in lieu of a lower track, with rows of pre-drilled, pre-threaded holes. Insert the stops in the appropriate holes, and you'd be golden without having to drill into your woodwork. It's really a shame because in terms of cooling, the air conditioner works well. The controls are sensible and once you turn off the Eco setting, it holds the temperature quite nicely. It's a bit on the loud side, but that doesn't bother me. All things considered, I have to reluctantly recommend against this air conditioner. The mounting system is so horrid that many people simply won't use the brackets, which will create a danger of the air conditioner falling out of the window. With a more sensible mounting bracket, I would have given it five stars.

Do not reccomend
I bought this unit because I liked the look, features and price. I installed the unit and turned it on. It made a horrible screeching sound. Sounded like a screeching bird. After a few minutes the sound quit. However, every time the compressor would kick on to cool the screeching would start again. I bought it for a average bedroom. It did not cool the room more than a few degrees running for hours. I'm taking it back to Sam's today. Would not reccomend this unit.

Beware of consumer reports!
Not made well. This is my second unit. First was defected in the case. This one makes noise as fan rattles. Member of Consumer Reports it directed me ,( my needs) to Sam's Club. so joined Sam's club to purchase. What a disappointment to find out my membership was only for the day. In retrospect, I should have paid the shipping charge.

Cools the Room
I have been using the Midea air conditioner for a month. Pros - Works as expected, the unit keeps my bedroom cool. I do like the sleep feature on the remote and unit, which turns the unit on/off automatically as needed. Cons - I do not like the size of the remote. The remote is very thin and small and hard to navigate in the dark, would be nice if the remote lit up.

So far so good!
I got this for the remote. I'm happy I got the remote, however I use this in my bedroom and am using the remote in the dark...the remote is the thickness of a slice of cheese and as smooth! In the dark you don't even know if you are touching the front or back/top or bottom. The buttons aren't raised! I mean that's great if you are eating Cheetos and touching it, but when in bed all snuggly it is hard to use. So I cut dots of sticky backed foam and made buttons for the power, temp up and down, and fan up and down. Best feature is the lighted display can be turned off! The face of the display is smooth like the remote and hard to read in the dark so I leave it off and use my remote. The biggest inconvenience is when I shut it off, it always turns back on to the same setting I last used PLUS adds 'eco' onto it. I use this for sleep... I can't have it turning on and off all night! The compressor kicking in and out is bad enough if I'm not in a deep sleep, I can't have the whole thing going quiet on me! All in all I'm satisfied!

Doesn’t cool enough for a small bedroom
Good for the price, but doesn’t cool enough, I put it in my bedroom, and it is a small bedroom. To be able to cool enough I need to lower it to the lowest which is 62 degrees but it is not super cold at all it’s just normal. Not hot but not cold either. Next time I will be trying a different brand.

Quite Noisy
Did my research and this was supposed to be an excellent unit; it was priced right and a good deal. However, I bought 2 units and both are quite noisy. I have some several older units (8 years) that make less noise . Not just me; my wife agrees they are noisy. They cool well and were easy to install. Would not have bought them had I heard them constantly 'rumble' through through the night.
