Midea MAP14S1CWT Smart Portable air Conditioner 14 000 BTU White

We had some really weird issues with getting our package. I dont think it was the actual seller, but Customer support was a headache just to find out where it was and even worse at understanding. They immediately wanted to cancel our order instead of figuring out what went wrong. Eventually, weeks late (I think the seller had to ship it again honestly, but again I think something happened at the Amazon facility or with the actual post) the air conditioner arrived. We chose the payment plan option and now that it's here we have no regrets. This works much better then we anticipated, we were trying to cool a small living room and this bad boy changes the temptress throughout the house. Its not significant upstairs where it feels like an ice box but versus how it's felt like a sauna and now just feels warm it's pretty amazing. We love our AC. The payment plan is automatic or you can pay it early when pay hits, it's super easy and convenient. Forget about it or don't, they take care of it. It was easy to set up, including connecting it to our phones and its just as easy to move. We switched windows. You can hear it, and it's a bit loud but not really in an annoying way. It's just the normal easy to forget noise similar to a fan. If you are hot and looking at this, buy it. It's made this month bearable (I'm 9 months pregnant if another uncomfortable Mama is wondering about some relief, this will do it) Read more

Midea makes great products. I've had one of their dehumidifiers for years and its great. I originally bought one of their new "U Shaped" window mount ACs but it unfortunately didn't work with my vinyl casement windows. I exchanged it for this portable floor unit. Its less efficient and louder than the U mount or a mini split would be, but its still WAY better than my 20 year old 10k BTU Kenmore in-wall was on all fronts (cooling power, energy efficiency, noise and features). On conference calls people say they can't hear it. To compare, I had to turn off my old AC for meetings which was not fun in the summer. Now I can crank it and no one knows! Overall, I'd recommend this highly for renters, or for homeowners like me that can't leverage other options due to window design or mini split installation costs. I'm using this in an above garage room that's less insulated than the rest of the house and gets beating sun all day in the summer. I just keep it at 72F/23C to save on electricity a bit. Room is about 400 ft2 and 12k btu was recommended by an AC professional. I never get below 77F and 50% RH or so according to 2 thermometers in that room but it feels dryer and cooler quickly. The unit only occasionally cools down enough to shut off (per its internal and likely more accurate thermometer), but again I'm using "warmer" settings and just leave fan speed and ac mode on "auto" with a room temp setpoint. I haven't tested "hard-core " settings and a 67F setpoint but I'm pretty confident it would do just fine if I cared enough to spend that much on electricity and environment killing :). Read more

I purchased this product "Used-Very Good" for ~$298.00. I live in New Mexico and my bedroom faces West and gets very hot during the summer (top floor, no shading). It's wintertime now, but this is when AC's are on sale so I started searching. I'm always confused on what to purchase based on reviews on Amazon because they are always so mixed. I figured, if I purchase and it doesn't work as expected, I would just return. I purchased this due to being 14,000 Btu, having a remote control and also being able to control it with my iPhone. I received it today and set it up. Was pretty quick, no issues at all with connecting exhaust hose to window. I didn't put window seals it came with because again, it's winter so I just wanted to test it, but I did connect everything else as instructed. Oh, forgot to mention, this unit it HEAVY! I had to carry it upstairs and it was a beast to carry. Once up the stairs, I was able to roll it since it does have wheels which was a huge help. I mean, even getting the box into the door was a challenge by myself and I consider myself pretty strong. After powering the unit on I tested the buttons on the unit itself. The unit turned on and I tested the auto, cool and fan modes. My room was reading 72 degrees F and I set the cooling to 67 degrees F. In no time, the cooling function turned on and started to blow very cold air. I turned the unit to high and was surprised by the power. Blows out a LOT of air. Another thing that impressed me was the low noise level. It wasn't bad at all. I'm a light sleeper and don't see that I would have any issue with the noise level. I'm very happy about that. I was also reading through another review that stated the unit didn't come with a filter and there is actually a picture of the back "panel" shown pulled off and the filter looks missing. I checked mine too and couldn't find the filter. Then I realized the panel you pull off is the filter!! LOL. You can definitely see the filter built into the back panel. Just in case anyone else is looking for it. Next, I checked the remote and just like the and it is very responsive. Everything works. Once of the features I really like is that you can turn off the LED when you sleep. I cannot sleep with a lot of light so this is a great feature. Last, I downloaded the app on my iPhone. All the features of the remote control are available on the phone app and again, it is very responsive. I tested all the functionalities and they all worked. I’m glad I decided to order and try it out because this one is a keeper for me. Finished all the tests and ran it for about 4 hours and everything is working great. No weird smells, all functions are working and most of all, it is very cold. Just what I needed for next summer. If when I use it next year there is anything funky, I’ll make sure to update this but I don’t foresee any issues at this point. Read more
