"Electricity average around $2/day."
"It's a very good deal. ... The same machine (rebranded as Toshiba) is also sold at Home Depot and can be cheaper sometimes though not as cheap as the current deal."

"I have that unit and absolutely love it for its cooling power to noise output."
"It's a great a/c unit regardless, it runs so much quieter than a regular one. ... If I'm doing a quick audition I'll leave it on (I turn it off for paid gigs), which I could never do with our old a/c units."

"Unfortunately did not install mine until after the Amazon return window ended and I had collapsed the box. I had emails with them back and forth about the smell, assuming that it was covered under the warranty. They were not very helpful. In fact they were very dismissive and told me to get someone to clean it (almost as expensive as the air conditioner) or clean it myself (which I believe would void the warranty) so I used the wick trick to drain water from the a/c and purchased an extended warranty. ... I don't understand why they would have created an AC that didn't drain. ... My brother has two of them, one of which is full of mold"
"it got full of mold in 6 months ... I tried to remove the casing to clean the mold but it’s just in a really inaccessible spot deep in the cold air vent."

"I returned it because the hose is just so big and very awkward to get into a window."
"These things are so hard to install!!"
I have a Midea 1.0hp that I infrequently use in my room. The lowest temp is 17 degree but hardly can make a 10x12ft room very cold. One thing you have to know is the exhaust hose will produce heat so it's better if you can make it as short as possible from the portable to the window. If you want a portable with inverter, you should check out the price because I think it's like 4-5 times more than a normal portable. I have the Midea probably more than 5 years now.
r/Bolehland • Portable Aircond recommendation ->Bad news for me is my Midea U-shaped in-window AC is on the recall list. I bought it a year ago at Costco on sale for around $300. I assume even if I might get a full refund, I probably won’t be able to get a new one with the same 12k BTU for $300, which makes me so angry. Anyway, we just bought the exact same portable model as you, but for $499 at Costco in the Seattle area. You got such a good deal. Anyway, I love this AC unit, it’s amazing! It’s currently 73 degrees inside the room where we put it, but it’s 84 degrees outside the house. It could be even colder in here (the machine is capable of that), but we don’t want to feel too cold, LOL. Every summer until now, I have suffered so much (the heat makes my health issue temporarily much worse, until the air cools down). I really hope this one won’t be recalled in the future.
r/AirConditioners • Midea portable AC at Costco $350, is it good? ->I got this same unit for the same price, but mine has this constant rattle sound. Does anyone have any experience with this and have a way to fix it? I'd rather not return it because frankly it was a huge pain in the ass to get home.
r/AirConditioners • Midea portable AC at Costco $350, is it good? ->Got the same one from costco and makes gaming in my upstairs office cool during the hottest days of summer! And no water drain!!!
r/AirConditioners • Next generation Portable AC units are pretty awesome ->350? Shit this unit was like 450 at my Costco. Returned for a swamp cooler, its colorado so swamp cooler works wonders.

r/AirConditioners • Midea portable AC at Costco $350, is it good? ->Ours from ALDI is loud and weak. I set up a Midea unit for a friend and that is a beast! I was amazed.
r/CasualUK • Why didn’t anyone tell me how compact and effective these portable air conditioners are? Why was I suffering through the last heat wave 💀 ->Midea has a great unit. Bought mine last year from Costco online for delivery.
r/bayarea • PSA: Get your box fans and portable AC units right now ->Ive been using it for few days and honestly it is mindblowing... very quite
r/AirConditioners • Midea portable AC at Costco $350, is it good? ->I have this to cool my living room, dining room, and kitchen. There are no doors between these rooms so it works great. Each bedroom has the midea U (except for the 4 year old, she just gets an el cheapo unit that only runs for a couple hours at bedtime)
