      Product Description

      Introducing the first ever U-shaped Inverter Window Air Conditioner that allows you to open or close your window while the unit is installed. The innovative design makes installation very easy, and the ability to close the window isolates the noise outside making it ultra quiet. The 12,000 BTU air conditioner covers approximately 550 sq ft.

      Ultra Quiet

      The U-shaped design blocks the noise coming from the compressor outside.

      Quick and Easy Installation

      It includes a quick-snap bracket and can be installed in 3 simple steps.

      Long Distance Airflow

      The strong airflow allows you to feel the cold air up to 20 feet away.

      Quick & Easy Installation

      A quick-snap bracket is included to set up the unit and secure the sidearms.

      Extremely Quiet

      The U-shaped design blocks the compressor noise outside, allowing ultra-quiet operation as low as 42dB. Even librarians would approve.

      Powerful, Quick Cooling

      The strong airflow allows you to feel the cold air up to 20 feet away, and the full DC inverter technology helps to rapidly cool the room.

      Ultra Efficient Inverter Technology

      Our patented inverter technology achieves more than 35% energy saving compared to traditional AC units. It's the first window AC to be awarded Energy Star's Most Efficient 2020 certification.

      Open the Window for Fresh Air

      The U-shaped design makes opening and closing your windows possible even with the unit installed. Let the fresh air in.

      Control With Your Smart Devices

      The Midea U works with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa so that you can control it with voice commands. Or control your Smartphone from anywhere with the iOS or Android app.

      Its crazy how loud this rattling / claking noise gets when the AC is running. Any time it is on, it makes way too much noise. Even a portable AC is quieter. Mold is starting to also appear on the inside and the outside flap, even with regular cleaning. Not great, looking to replace with something better.

      Pretty upset after discovering mold in both of our units. I work in air pollution control & I have experience with HVAC as well as mold remediation. I agree with other reviews about the drain hole problem. We properly installed. We clean the units regularly. Since it got how about two months ago I started smelling a funk and recently discovered it's the AC units after several nights of sinus congestion & my family feeling sick. I used my phone to take a photo & video inside of the unit - mold everywhere. Very upsetting given that we chose to buy the more expensive "top of the line" "new groundbreaking technology" because now we have to launder everything in our bedrooms (we have to go to the laundry mat $$$), I might need to replace the mattress & furniture. Insurances don't cover mold so I have to fix things out of pocket. I'm super stressed about this.

      Midea was prompt in addressing my mildly dissatisfied review. It was all by email, including troubleshooting steps. The emails are form lists of items to check, all very basic. Since my unit isn't actually broken, just doesn't function as advertised, the troubleshooting steps were of no help. Their final suggestion: Return or exchange the unit. After having gone through the complicated and slow installation, I don't want to remove it. I'll hope it functions as it does now, which is good enough.

      I purchased three Midea AC units in March 2022: two 8000 BTU units and one 12000 BTU unit. The 12000 BTU unit is installed in my living room, but I barely use it compared to the other two, which I use more often. The ACs are somewhat quiet but not particularly powerful. Unfortunately, my experience with the 12000 BTU unit has been disappointing. It initially displayed an error code "PC 04" and later another error "EC 07." Considering it only lasted two summers, I expected more from a supposedly reputable brand. Overall, it has been a very bad experience.

      This unit claims it could 550 sq ft. It doesn't. I had an 8000 BTU unit which cooled better. I use fans to move the air around the space and it cools the room with the unit to the desired temp but is not strong enough for the rest of the apartment. It looks nice and functions well, removing humidity from the air. The installation was not easy for DIY, but I managed after a number of hours. I have not had it long enough to notice diminished electricity use. If you have bright lights outside of the window, the design of the unit, allowing light in on the sides, may not be ideal for sleeping. I'm constructing some panel to block out that light. All in all, I should have left the old unit in.

      We did a lot of research before deciding on this unit. We wanted something that was decently quiet, easy to install and would cool our bedroom and other close areas. The install took about 25 minutes with two people. The instructions were SO EASY!! We had an older AC unit that was portable and it was so loud. This AC is way quieter than what we are used to and cools the room down incredibly fast. We don't ever notice the sound (nice white noise) and it never wakes us up. I love this unit and would recommend it to anyone!

      It cools. But this thing is obnoxiously loud. It sounds like a hundred crickets are inside the unit, and it's so incredibly annoying. The AC worked normally last summer (first year I owned it). I uninstalled the unit for the winter and just reinstalled for the summer. That's when the problem started. It's also ridiculous to install, so be prepared to spend a couple of hours trying to figure it out.

      I moved to Minneapolis Jan 2023 from Dallas where central air conditioning is pretty much in every house. I rented an old Victorian house which did not have central AC. I had never in my life dealt with Window AC units so I decided to buy portable AC units which I also had never used before. While they were easy to install I realized too late they were much more noisy and the hose on really hot days would radiate some heat back into the room. I decided this summer I was going to well them and replace them with the Midea U Shaped AC Units. I WISH I HAD BOUGHT THESE LAST YEAR! They are SO much more quiet than the portable units. I did buy one regular window ac last year for the kitchen as there really was no way to use a portable in there. This thing is so much quieter and the cooling is incredible! I have it in a living room window blowing towards the doorway into the kitchen. It keeps the living room so much cooler than the portable ever did. I think it's a combination of being a window unit instead of the portable with the hose emitting heat and the window being able to mostly close. The windows on the first floor of the house are pretty old if not almost original. This allows for a much better seal. I've ordered another two for the bedrooms upstairs. Can't wait to get them because I suspect I will see a huge difference in how well those rooms get cooled as well. I can't speak to the ease of installation other than I tried and couldn't do it/suspected it was more than I had the skills for so I called a handyman. He did have to do some hacks to make it work with the old windows downstairs and I'd probably never have figured that out. The upstairs windows are more recent so I'm going to try to install one upstairs myself. I

      This air conditioner is pretty much worthless and not worth the hype that these media outlets tech and consumer review websites make this brand. This unit is not 12,000 btu it has a 5,000 btu output but at a much higher amperage and wattage it cools but the cooling performance is not that great and does not pull humidity from the air which is a primary function of an air conditioner it pulls a slight fraction of humidity from the air resulting in the cool and clammy which still causes you to sweat and create another set of problems in the room. The compressor creates more heat then necessary even in milder temps outdoor making this unit a huge energy waster and inefficient like other midea units ive owned the anti tip brackets are pointless when the side brackets prevent movement this unit idols more than it runs to cool never shutting down from a resulting 65 set point to 68-70 your compressors needs improvement they run way to hot and are very noisy my central system runs much quieter not being inverter. the design is thoughtful but the outdoor section is pretty ugly with no design i registered the warranty which is already 6 months in there's not point in making a claim im just going to recover the refrigerant and take it to a recycling center last but least the inverter is already emitting a burning smell you also need to add more space for the condenser section because the unit cant breath properly with every component crammed together resulting in little to no air flow.
