Great features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Midea 8,000 BTU SmartCool Air Conditioner is a great addition to my basement. Getting it out the box and setting it up was fast and simple. I was excited to use the WiFi and voice control feature. I was able to set it up with my Alexa and turn the AC on when I am upstairs. It cools the whole basement in under an hour. The air can me directed in 4 different ways and the fan is a great bonus. The remote is a great bonus and the Energy Star is something I look for in all my appliances. I'm very happy with this AC.

cools off fast and Smart

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a very easy window air conditioner to install. My husband had it in, hooked up, and cooling down within a half an hour. It cools off our very large den real fast. We only have a swamp cooler here in AZ and sometimes they don't work so well, and with his window air conditioner, it stays so nice and comfortable. This cooler has many features. You can control it with a remote control, the smartphone app, or voice control with your Alexa. We have been mainly using the app or remote. It is an Energy star saver, which is a big plus for us here in the desert. We really like how we can turn it up or down with the remote. We spend a lot of time in this room, and even more with this air conditioner which makes it more comfortable.

Fantastic Product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Air conditioner starts cooling whatever room you have it in very rapidly after turning it on. It's very quiet while running. It's very energy efficent. Easy to set up. Has a handheld remote and a cell phone app that makes operating the air conditioner even easier than a manual one. Has extra features that many other brand of air conditioners don't, like 3 speed fan, eco mode and an easy to service filter.

8,000 BTU - Great Window Unit

INSTALL - Fairly straight forward & only req'd a few tools plus a drill for 1/8" pilot holes for the 1/2" metal screws to secure in place. Took approx 30 mins from out-of-the-box & in-the-window operation. Took another 30 - 45 mins to install gaskets / tape for sealing purposes + setting up the SMART App & Alexa. TEMP - First day of use in FLORIDA Spring (5/31/20) - 96F & sunny! Put it on 62F to get a 300' SF room cooled down. Took about 2 hours but it worked great & blows very cold air! Thermometer placed at vents registered 61F & you could feel the cool air 10' - 15' away from the unit. REMOTE - this little unit also has a remote to help you control the unit's temp, mode, fan speed, etc. so you don't have to get-up ... of course, if you have a smart phone, read on ... SMART APP - This took several tries & 2 devices. USE ONLY 2.4ghz WiFi signal when connecting to your home network & the AC network OR you will NOT successfully configure the unit. Even after doing this several times, I ended up switching devices from my iPhone 8+ to my iPad. I kept getting "Internal Error" when attempting to move on from Step 3 after successfully connecting to the AC Network. I downloaded the same app on the iPad, logged-in, followed the same set-up as before - Viola ... SUCCESS on the 1st try!! Once connected, you can activate Alexa & to use voice commands from within the house or from your iPhone Alexa app for "scenes" if your home is SMART configured. You can also use the MIDEA AIR AP. This has some nice user interface from background color to let you know which mode your AC unit is running as well as the ability to control / set temp, mode, fan speed, etc. There's also another feature that allows you to set up daily / weekly routines for all the various settings too; PROS: Cold Air! Easy DIY install for most folks!! SIMPLE buttons!!! Remote & SMART iPhone App capable!! CONS: Needs bigger "side-screens" for larger (> 36" wide) window openings.

A/C works amazing!

Runs great. I have a large room upstairs thats my daughters room. The sun beats on my house all day. The room always gets so hot and air conditioners seem to struggle to keep cool even with black out curtains. No black out curtains and this A/C works amazing

So far, so good

Just came today. Was a timely manner. Came in great shape. Easy to install. I rent, so I cant screw holes in the windows, but was still able to set it up and use the included foam to make it work. The wifi set up was easy. Remote works fine. I love that I can set up a schedule so it doesnt have to run so hard when I'm not home. So far it is cooling my upstairs nicely. I am pretty sure all these people complaining would complain about anything. It isnt any louder than the one that I just replaced that wasnt cooling any more. Over all, so far, I love this purchase and might have to buy another one of the other bedroom.

Best purchase this summer

I bought this A/C in late June, the unit arrived very quickly. The installation was very straightforward, the package includes everything I need. I did it myself within less than 1 hour, with most of the time is to remove the old A/C from the window. This Midea A/C works excellent, cool down the oversized living room very quickly, the best thing I like this AC is the feature that I can easily install an App on my phone, and using the app to turn on the AC when we are about to return home. We have got it running for more than month, plan to buy another one for bedroom.

Surprised!

We had an combination AC/Heat window unit that we moved into another room and used the Midea for that room it replaced. It was smaller than our previous unit and lighter as well (I am taking into account the heating unit does make the other one heavier.) I was not sure about the brand yet the price was right so I tried it. I have to say, one month into using it in July/Aug in Texas with the extreme heat we have had this summer, it has performed well. It is quieter than our older model and I like how you can turn off the lights features to keep your room dark at night. It does the job (for one month-the hottest month period this year though). Sam's stands behind their products, so we have not looked back on our purchase. Surprising good AC!
