Functional , modern homeowner's AC unit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This window air conditioner is compact but mighty! Quick and easy to install and come with detailed, easy to follow instructions. Remote included for easy use and product features smartphone app compatibility and smart speaker compatibility! Easy to connect and can be controlled straight from your phone or speaker which provides added convenience. Cools the air effectively with several modes and fan speed options.

Easy install instant connect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this has to be one of the best window ac units I've owned. It was easy to setup, easy to install, and looks good as well. The app is easy and it was quick to setup and use. I've had no issues with having to restart or anything. It cools well and It seems like it is going to work well for a long time.

Works well, easy to use, quite heavy and bulky

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This air conditioner works well, connects easily and the app is very easy to use. Along with the remote that comes with it the voice control is a very nice feature. However, it is heavy and bulky. The side panels are also difficult to install and don't fit very well.

don't buy

This product is inferior. I wrote another review explaining why but Sam's didn't like it. I had to carry these units all over the place and in the end they failed to deliver. So I had to carry them back to Sam's. Waste of time and energy on my part. I mentioned to the Sam's staff the problem and they agreed that other unsatisfied customers felt the same when returning theirs. I asked why the reviews misled me, no response.

Can't cool & super noisy - Horrible Cust Service!

This is a very poor quality product, underperforms in any aspect (air is not cold enough and fan can not disperse it more than 1 foot from the grill at its highest speed). To make things worse, it is unbelievably noisy (no way to sleep at night having it ON). Last, Customer Service is just utterly junk - agents can barely speak/understand English, have no training at all, and will truly waste your time (I tried with 3 different agents). This is a nightmare company. Sam's Club need to stop carrying Midea's air conditioning products

Cool, Man, Cool

We have a GE window-mounted air conditioner from Sam's. It Is now in its third year and cooling well. We chose the Midea because it was on sale and had a more high-tech user interface. It looks to be a close relative of our GE, judging by the coil, compressor, and outer frame. The GE Is a Haier brand; so the Midea probably is as well. So far, our Midea works well, though perhaps it Is a bit noisier at its lowest fan speed than the GE. We would buy the Midea (and GE) again.

Love the features

Our sons room is the hottest in the house. Direct sunlight all day. We have central air but with this heat, it’s just so warm in his room. We upgraded to this window unit and it’s so nice. Cooled down the room within minutes. It came with a little remote but the best feature is the app. Being able to set a schedule for morning/evenings! Amazing. Can check the app and see exactly what temp his room is, what the house is, what the city is. The cord is nice and long. You can have the display on or off. Easy filter change. I’m super happy and highly recommend.

Nice little A/C.

Nice little A/C, it was a little finicky to get the plug to reset to allow it to turn on, but it finally worked and the remote control never worked, checked the battery, and then looked at it through an infrared camera to make sure it was working but no dice on working the A/C. It was for my son who said he was more likely to use the wifi app anyway. So all is good. And the best part is that it fit our narrow windows.

No complaints

Our central air went out. 100° everyday for 9 days (north Louisiana) while waiting for parts to arive. Picked this unit up to at least keep our bedroom livable while we waited. This little guy made our bedroom an icebox at night kept the bottom floor pretty cool with some well placed fans, considering the heat wave. Central air is fixed and now I have a unit for my shop.

It is nice

It is ok, easy to install also, I could not tilt it as the instruction stated, also the bracket comes with it to secure it either to vinyl or wood windows but it does not mention aluminum windows. The WiFi is nice and easy to set up, the cool feature is nice and more than enough for 100 SF room
