Replaced a similar GE unit

To be honest, I've never heard of Midea, but this unit was well-priced and had the features I wanted to replace a GE (that failed after just over a year), so I went for it. Works fine so far, nicely packaged and easy to install, seems well-designed, but I'll have to see how it survives next summer's 100 degree stretches, which can be really hard on small a/c's around here.

Highly recommend

I purchased this little unit when my central air died, in the middle of an 8 day series of 100+ degree days. 3 weeks later, still no new ac, and facing another series of 100+ degree days, i purchased this unit for my bedroom. It worked great, keeping my bedroom at a steady 74 degrees despite the outside temp. It was a lifesaver until my central ac was fixed.

Performs Beyond Specs

Square footage in my basement over 800’. This unit is the little train that could. Once I get the room cooled I select Econo Mode and it works like a dream. Remote lets me stay fat and happy on the couch!

Satisfying surprise

I love this product! I was very surprised that it cooled down both my kitchen and living room. I've always had one AC unit in each room but i didn't need to put up my second unit in my kitchen and just used a table to fan. I love how it automatically goes off when it needs to and comes back on. I haven't got the chance to use the wifi feature but I'm sure it's nice to turn off the unit from my bedroom if I'm not feeling like getting out of bed. The air is nice and cool that I've learn to sleep on my couch. Even my other brand AC unit won't cool my bed room quick.

Great so far

Easy install and setup. Connected to my ipad and Alexa things blended effortlessly. Turned it on and it actually cooled the room beyond my belief. As it stands right down just a couple of weeks in, it is outstanding!

Lowest Temp is 62°F

I purchased this to replace a 6,000 BTW window unit. Even though the 8,000 BTW until put out a lot of air, the room didn’t get a cold as the old unit because the lowest temperature it can be set to is 62° (my old unit went down to 60°). So even though this was more powerful and cooled the room more quickly, it didn’t get as cold as I wanted. Unfortunately, this is going to be returned.

Not good

I just installed the ac . Easy to do, but it was too heavy for me. And now i'm lying in bed and freezing. Before this i had an air conditioner and a fan because it wasn't cold enough, so i'm loving this. Btw the delivery was quick. I wrote this after i installed it. NOW , almost a week later, it's not working so great. It hasnt been a good experience. I can't get as cool as it was the first day. I'm thinking of how to return this.

Not the one you are looking for

It’s making odd noises already and I’ve only had it a few weeks!!! This is ridiculous. I know it’s been a hot winter, but it’s certainly not as hot as summer and this thing can’t handle it. Our room is small, but I got a larger model to overcompensate for the fact that the door opens and closes about 15 times a day. All the same, it’s never left open and the unit should not be making these sounds! (I’ve had window units in my bedroom for years. Their normal running noises don’t bother me a bit. This one isn’t as quiet as some I’ve had, but when it worked it wasn’t horrendously loud.)

Wouldn't buy it again.

This thing can barely cool off a medium bedroom. It always feels wet and so doesn't feel very cool. There is a dry mode, but when you turn it on, the fan will ony run on low and then the cooling stops working so well. I unfortunately bought 2 of these, both the same, I wouldn't buy it again now that I have seen its performance.

Not even close to the 10,000 BTU model

This 8,000 BTU version does not come with auto off or any of the other features of the 10,000 BTU model (that is no longer available). It's a very noisy air conditioner. I can not recommend it.
