The Midea U-Shape is AMAZING!! I bought the 8000 btu model 3 years ago and my Brother for the 12000 btu model the same day and we’re both still amazed by how AWESOME these window units work while lowering the Monthly power bill considerably!!!
I bought the same , excellent products indeed but I thought there is better one out there apparently there isn’t yet 😊
@@TheColossus100 I heard the LG 14,000 dual inverter model uses the same power as the Midea 12,000 U-Shape. but it's significantly colder.
The design changes are what really interest me the most. Not "losing" a window with the saddle design is amazing, and being able to essentially close the window with the U design sounds like it does wonders for reducing noise and air leakage. THAT'S the kind of innovation I can get behind
I had the Soleus saddle window A/C - returned it. Wasn't wide enough for my double brick house built in 1960. Went with the Midea U shaped - 12k BTU, the 110v not the 220. No regrets. I have it in a room a little too large, but only using it at night to cut back on central air, so it works well for me. Also recently purchased two Windmill brand window AC units, both in 6,000 BTU and 8,000 BTU for smaller bedrooms. They're not U shaped but they're very nice looking, quiet, no air leakage, inverter tech, and quiet, shame they didn't review those as well - there is nothing else like them on the market.
Just curious do you know the EER's of the Windmill brand you referenced?
It will have to wait. My over 21 year old DANBY window mount air conditioner, is still working as good as new. I did have to add oil to the motors brass bearing felt pads at one point, since the oil had dried up completely and thus the motor was squealing big time. Plus I repainted the unit once, and so it just looks maybe 4 or so years old. The apartment windows slide sideways, so I did not need to add the air conditioners side panels for it to fit properly in the window. The window height was twice the height of the conditioner, and the side panels if bolted together were the same width as the air conditioner. So I used the bolted together side panels to fill the upper open window area located above the air conditioner. It fits like a glove, and it has withstood some record breaking storms. LOL.
What about maintenance & potential mold issues in the ACs? Which ones have easier cleaning & maintenance?
I would like to have seen the power each uses in wattage.
I got the GE PROFILE CLEAR VIEW SADDLE TYPE ,WAY TO EASY TO INSTALL.
As of july 2023, for canadians ordering midea u-shaped 12000 btu from home hardware (sale $499) is way better than amazon ($800)
I have the Toshiba 5000btu ac unit. It's basic and works perfectly.
Had mine for 3 years works great. Wish I got 6k though. I hate how anything more than 6k is a smart unit
I bought 4 Midea U-shaped units (2 of them 2 yrs ago, and the other 2 a year ago). Initially, they were amazing. However, 3 of the 4 now make an ear-piercing high-pitched whine. It's absolutely maddening. Do you have tinnitus? It sounds like that, but much louder. I had to pull teeth to get Midea to replace one of them that failed a year ago. They kept having me send them audio recordings and responded, "it's within the acceptable dB range," but they would not acknowledge the high-pitched whine. I kept pressing to get to a supervisor, and finally got one who eventually gave in and they cut me a refund check as they didn't want to cover the expense to return a heavy defective unit.
Granted, these units start out fantastic and are very quiet, and have great features -- but over a relatively short period of time, quality is proven to be terrible (I'm just waiting for the 4th unit to start making noise any time now). So unfortunately, they've ended up being a waste of money for me, longterm.
I would not buy this product again due to the frustration it has created. 3 failed units out of 4 in a short period of time is a pretty good statistic to help you in your decision making process.
I have this feeling you have this problem with all of.. Well everything you buy.. Might want to get an electrician out to your house.. Sounds like the appliances are not your problem. Your the first person I've seen have an issue.. lol not one but 3 really.. Get an electrician out asap
I got one 2 years ago and still Quiet and Cools the place fast. . . And the Bills are still low. . . I do maintenance every 6 months.
That clear view leaks into the house.
I have central air but, still want MORE AC in one particular room. I just have a bit of hesitation installing an AC in a vinyl window, but plan to do so anyways. I kind of have an idea of maybe running a mini-split into this room if something exists without that massive wall unit? Why can't I have something like central air that uses the existing floor register to have this room climate controlled entirely on it's own with an AC sitting just outside? In the meantime, if a window AC can do the trick, I will be so happy.
Why on earth would you want the AC temp at 5:13 to increase temperature while you sleep? That is absolutely wrong. Every sleep expert will tell you that a cooler room assists better sleep, not a warmer room.
You're missing out on the 10,000 BTU Vissani. I can assure you it is an absolute beast, and save money
How good is the Frigidaire FHWC054WB1 5000 BTU model with remote control, according to the most recent model of that brand, but on Amazon it has no referrals
Don't buy. Is totally trash!
I see the LG goes down to 60 degrees, so that's the one I'm getting because I like to sleep in a cold room!
Is there a u-shaped window for a sliding window? Inverter?
I meant u-shaped a.c.
I just want to know what a reasonable price would be for a window AC and what I should expect to pay for labor. ??? Not an easy question apparently...
Labor might not cost anything if you can do it yourself or if you can find a family member to help you or look it up on RUclips.
The LG 8,000 BTU unit is trash. It’s loud and the drain clogs very easily. I’m waiting on a new unit so I can get rid of the LG.
Imagine having 2 subs and complaining about air conditioner trash
@@Hyper_Utsm119Imagine having 100 subs and trying to tell someone off on an AC video.
@@Hyper_Utsm119 imagine thinking subs has something to do with credibility.
@@Hyper_Utsm119 what does having 2 subs has to do with them voicing their dissatisfaction with a product? Some people might find their opinion valuable. 🙄
@@Dr.KarenMarsh Right! I don’t see how there’s a connection there. 🍎🍊 🤔
Midea Is Perfect for me. I bought 2
Any mold
Their washers have bad reviews.
I wish you put prices also. I enjoyed the info.
Google is free
Frigidaire air 8,000 btu is a great buy for me. It will cool your room fast and at 65° it's like heaven on earth for me. Sleep like a baby since 2021. It will cool your room so fast that you will sleep with the remote near you
It's so expensive though
Does anyone here have the Toshiba? 5000 or 6000? I wonder how those keep up? I heard they were good
Word of advice don't buy I have one and it's trash..
Get the Midea U-shaped Air Conditioner . My local Menards was selling the 8000 PTU or less than $350 + Mail in rebate .They have a good tracking record.
@@Arctic5fox they have flaws too a ratttling noise in some
I have the Toshiba 5000btu. It works great. 👍
@@Arctic5fox Can you point us to the track-record source you're referring to? I haven't found a source that tracks metrics on quality/reliability at even a 1 year mark. It's been frustrating, as reviews used to have a long-term quality component, and is not easy to find these days.
I wish someone would talk about if any of these damn units don’t rust out! As an owner of several properties as far as I’m concerned, they’re all shit because of the portion that sits in the exterior gets rained on and the casing as well as the internal components start rusting quickly
Also, some of them because of the metal drip pan, they rust through the drip pan all while spewing water on the side of your house to create mildew grossness, etc.
I dont really know how any of the can be better than others as all of tbese units rather frigidaire, toshiba, midea, ge, are all made by the Haier compsny. In fact they dominate about 95% of the window ac business. Allunits have same internal compnents, just a different front panel and name.
Because engineering on the units are all different.
@@nickuber2573 they're not
Actually, Media is an OEM for their own and many other brands of window ac and other home appliances
I do not know about their ac units but my experience with a Haier refrigerator was not good. Replaced the door handle twice because the handle just pulled off in my hands both times and many websites the handle was always out of stock. that tells me something, fridge gave up after five years. even though I always kept the condenser clean.
I've noticed this as I've started working on them lately.
I wanted to learn more on the Soleus over the widow seal air conditioner. You spent a whole 30 seconds talking about it, but on the Midea you spent almost three minutes. Come on man, be fair across the spectrum with these units. 🤦♂️
That should tell you something 😅
Energy efficient nowadays just means not as powerful or lower power setting options. AC technology hasn't really changed in decades & im not being sarcastic either.
That's not really true, check out the viable speed compressor units using inverter VFD technology. The same cooling power using up to 40% less electrical power
These are all $268-$650
Buy the fridgeaires the other brands dont last
Wtf is a Vindow air conditioner?
It says 2024 but it was uploaded a year ago in 2023 🙄
All Stores Please lower the price of all Military and Local for all brands of Window Air Units Products and Accessories and Production Cost Now That's too much $$ The Whole World Now Pray
LG and frididaire are both horrible brands that require constant replacements.... home depot specialties.
midea is also super chinese and has many problems with mold.... another reviewer bought off and reporting what others report
LG is trash. Makes so much noise. Was over ranging 62 to 67db. Just replaced one with a Media. Hope it lasts!
well said!!
gl hf chinese brand! maybe alibaba but maybe tech genius
I bought an 8,000 BTU Frigidaire window unit. It worked very well for almost 2years . When it was 1 year old right before the warranty expired I bought the extended warranty for 3years. The blower fan went out about a month ago. Still waiting for my replacement. I am not very happy with the way Frigidaire handles there extended warranty. It has been almost a month since I sent them the paper work they requested. Everytime I call about the replacement they keep say 7 to 10 days. I wish I had bought something else.
The problem with window air conditioners is that they draw power during the hottest part of the day, when electric rates are highest.
Electric Companies are nothing but Mafia stealing-machines. You should see the financial tricks pulled by LG&E in Louisville. They buy electricity at three cents per kilowatt hour, and then sell it to homeowners at twenty cents per kilowatt hour. Bear in mind that Electric Companies don’t generate electricity. That’s a different company. The name that appears on your electric bill is just a paperwork company. They don’t do anything but mark-up wholesale electricity from two cents to twenty cents. It’s robbery in broad daylight. On the East Coast, Mafia-infested states like New England buy power at two cents per KWH and then resell it at thirty cents per KWH. It’s paperwork fraud. And this enormous financial crime occurs under direct Federal control. Our entire country is being run by white collar criminals. And that’s why Washington has to be shut-down and replaced with small regional offices.
But until then, there’s a way to significantly reduce your home A/C electric bill. Buy a big chest freezer and put it outside your house under a window. Then fill the freezer with medium sized rocks which allow for plenty of air flow. Then drill a big hole in the lid for a regular box fan, and a small hole in the other end for a dryer vent tube. The freezer will run all night while electric rates are low. So then you put the dryer vent tube in through the window, and turn on the fan. You’ll get cool air at a sixty percent discount.

Where I've lived (admittedly, only a few cities in two different states), the electrical billing rate has always been flat across the clock.
@@lonniemcclure4538 The interesting thing about electric rates in America is that there are no longer any public rate review boards. There used to be.
Consumers in America get fleeced by the Unions. The price of Gasoline, Food, Electricity, and Mass Transit should all be regulated by a Review Board. In capitalist countries, most products are marked-up forty percent. So if crude oil leaves the refinery at $2.00 a gallon, it should retail for $2.80 a gallon. But the Unions double or triple the price of everything they handle. And they threaten anyone who recommends a Public Review Board. Everyone is afraid of the Unions.
its not a government. its just everyday greedy people like you who dont wanna work a normal job. profit oriented money grabbers. whats sad is that everyone that complains about it would do the same thing if they had the opportunity to. most mens biggest goal is to quit their job and be rich. the only reason they dont is because they dont know how to, but if they could....
on another note, i think its justifiable to be rich if you give back a considerable amount of your earnings and not just to your immediate family. this could be done thru non profit organizations, donations, or just simply not overpricing everything you sell and barely making profit. also if you could just not spend your money on unnecessary things like a really expensive car. why buy a lambo when you can get around just fine in a camry or like? why buy a house so big that you never use rooms or clothes so expensive when you can wear normal clothes?
thanks for reading. just food for thought.
Haier is so worthless DO NOT BUY ONE
FRIEDRICH IS STILL THE BEST!
