      • It delivers on noise and installation isn't as hard as I feared
    Style: 12000 BTU
    So, I hate summer. Some people get SAD in winter, I get it in summer. I just hate being hot. But I also hate how loud my 12,000 BTU unit was. I had to choose between watching a movie or having it on. No fun. I bought this after reading a review in the newspaper. I then researched other of these new saddle-style units plus some traditional units that are supposed to be quiet. I settled on this one mainly because I could get 12,000 BTUs and the others tapped out at 8100. Set up is about as difficult as putting together IKEA furniture. I did it in about 20 minutes. The process is pretty logical. I do recommend watching the video provided by the company and maybe googling some other install videos by other users. I watched a couple before beginning and I think that helped. I do recommend that you own a level for this project. The instructions say you should and I agree that it really isn't optional for this project. I was able to install it on my own, and I am a weakling, so single people can do this. However, I probably would have preferred to have a helper just to lift the unit into the window. It is quiet. I am so happy with the noise level. I tried watching a nature documentary on a lowish volume and could still hear David Attenborough's sublime narration. This is the feature I was most interested in and it delivers. It is also more attractive than your standard window a/c, which is a bonus. The company waxes poetic about being able to open the window with the unit in. I have to say that while that is doable, it probably isn't as practical as they make it out to be, namely because the screen (at least on my window) has to be up so opening the window would let in bugs. It is lower profile and narrower than my other unit, so I do get more window and light, which is nice. My only worry is the reviews on here that discuss condensation pooling and causing mold. I have only had this a day, so I will update this after using it a bit. Reading through reviews and talking with my spouse, any A/C can suffer from that problem, so it might not be a midea problem, but time will tell. As far as noise and efficiency, I am very, very happy. Hopefully this coming summer will be less depressing. I will still try to find a job in Maine. Or Alaska. Or maybe Norway. I am not built for swampy summers. Edit after using this all last summer: I still love it and bought a second unit. I will note that the second unit arrived and stopped working soon after -- something probably got cracked in transport so I don't think it was Midea's fault. I put in a claim and got refunded the cost, which I appreciated it. I replaced that second unit and now have two of these beauties in my apartment. I did not have the condensation problem people mention in other reviews. I am no expert, but I think that issue might be due to installing it in such a way as the unit can't drain properly. I was very careful to get the angle just right and used a level (you really do need to own a proper level for installation -- buy one with your order if you don't already have one). But after a summer of running this living in a hot and humid location, this was worth every penny. It cools very well and efficiently. It almost feels like I have central a/c. It is also very quiet. Even on high, I can hear myself think. I recommend this A/C to everyone I can. ... show more

      • Top-rated, most energy-efficient, quietist A/C - if you can find one - but installation's tricky
    Style: 12000 BTU
    Review Image by Steve L. Steve L.
    Consumer Reports lists this model as the top-rated 12,000 BTU window A/C you can buy, by quite a bit. Perhaps that's why the model is sold out almost everywhere for the time being, and Amazon only has them from third-party sellers at $300 over the list price. Even so, if you absolutely have to an air conditioner this season, it may be worth it. What makes this model and the two smaller models in the product line unique is the way the inverter/compressor and air circulation unit are completely separated from each other. In a sense, this is like a mini-split A/C, but fit into the form factor of a window unit for those who have no way to mount a mini-split in their home. We live in a high rise in NYC, so a mini-split is definitely out of the question. Also, most mini-splits require a 220v circuit, which isn't available in our post-war building. The Midea U runs on a standard 110v circuit. The Midea U is the first window unit to meet the latest Energy Star efficiency standard, being more than twice as efficient as most models. That said, the SAR rating is is comparable to the least efficient mini-split systems. In other words, the most efficient window air conditioner you can buy right now, which is this model, is equivalent to the least efficient mini-split air conditioner. If there is any way you can install a mini-split A/C in your home, it will likely pay for itself in just a few seasons. If you live in a high rise and can talk the management into installing central air, even as expensive as that might be, it will likely pay for itself compared to using window units. However, if you have no choice in the matter, this is the one to buy. When it comes to installation, the instructions are fairly minimal and a bit confusing. Complicating matters is that Midea requires the use of their proprietary mounting bracket (included) - otherwise the warranty is voided. That can be a problem in New York or any city with restrictions on mounting over brick. We got around that by installing the unit over our terrace, where falling bricks aren't an issue, but not everyone has that option. It may be worthwhile getting something in writing from Midea that they will honor the warranty, should an alternative mounting bracket have to be used by law. The supplied mounting bracket is significantly longer than the air conditioner and was probably designed for use with other models. For some, that may be a problem as it may stick out too far. Since the unit's on our terrace, the bracket was decidedly in the way. It's not possible to saw off the excess, as that would compromise its integrity. Instead, I took up the slack on the inside by using a pair of T-brackets to shift the mounting bracket back to a more reasonable position, which worked quite well. The mounting bracket is designed to attach to the inside of the window frame on both sides, but that's a problem if the window has multiple segments, as is the case with ours. We have a large picture window with double-hung windows on each side. Therefore, there is no inside to which to mount the bracket on the right side. As shown in the picture, the mounting bracket is left just hanging in mid air. The way I secured it was with a spacer and a long screw to mount it to the window sill below. The window itself serves to separate the internal and external portions of the unit from each other. This isolates the vibrations of the compressor, making for an exceptionally quiet window unit. However, there are spaces on both sides that still require insulation, for which white foam insulating panels have been provided. Unfortunately, there's barely enough insulation to do the job, and our window was far from the widest for which the unit was designed. Be prepared to buy more if needed. Also, there is flexible memory foam provided, but it's black and the foam panels are white, which isn't a good combination. Worse, there isn't quite enough memory foam, so be prepared to buy more, preferably in white. There are gaps underneath the A/C that are easily missed, through which air can get through, and possibly bugs. Be sure to take the time to plug these with additional memory foam. Finally, there isn't room to use your screen, so if you plan to open the window on a nice day, you might want to build your own screen to fit the available space. In operation, the unit works extremely well. It's quiet, efficient and much better at cooling the room than our last one. The interface takes a little getting used to and the unit has it's way of overruling your choices so as to provide more effective cooling. It's actually easier to use the smartphone app than the included remote control, but again, there's a learning curve. Setting up the A/C with your WiFi is tricky, but reliable once done. You will need to broadcast your SSID, which most people do - otherwise, the Midea will lose connectivity. Living in a high rise with dozens of WiFi networks in range, I would have preferred otherwise. If you have the expertise and live in a similar situation, I recommend getting a router that lets you restrict WiFi connections to those you specify (MAC address filtering). The smartphone app will work with multiple units, so if you install more than one of them, you'll be able to control them all from one location. ... show more
