Good
I just received this unit. It's only February, so I won't need it till April. I've been reading the assembly instructions. Looks like I can hook it up. Hoping it works well when I need it. Last summer was soooo hot. It seems easier than the window unit that I had. Putting it in and taking it out. We will see. Nice to pay through Affirm.

WARNING: Trips 15 amp breaker in humid conditions
My home office gets hot because the sun beats down on that side of the house during the later part of the day, so picked this up to help keep the room cool while I work.
Not sure what they did but this thing will trip your breaker when it is humid out... Worked fine for a couple weeks but now with humid weather it is tripping the breaker randomly and consistently. This is a brand new house so definitely not an issue with electrical.
I even tried plugging it in by itself on the 15 amp circuit and it still ends up tripping it if it is humid out. Again, this did not happen at all before we got humid weather and now it is completely useless.
I even tried emptying the water tray and cleaning the filter (which was clean since it was only 10 days old) but it still trips the breaker.
It's possible I just got a lemon so I will be taking it back to exchange and see if problem persists.

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser11/30/2022THE COOLEST IN THE BUSINESSthis air conditioner it great. you need a window for this but the unit is on the ground. i use it for a large master bedroom with a home that has one unit. downstairs is freezing and you blazing upstaits. NOW YOU CAN BE FREEZING IF THATS WHAT SUITS YOU. The only that could make this unti better is if were a little quieter. my sweeting daze are over!Ellen

4.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser09/08/2022Great so far!This size was the smallest I could find in order to fit into a specific place. I still wish they could make them smaller, because if you live in a small home it is very intrusive, no matter what. Having said that, the unit works great so far...only used it 3 times and it will be used only periodically for a small guest bedroom. It was not at all difficult to set up but took a bit of extra creativity with the window installation kit for a sliding window because it is a 1901 beach cottage and nothing like todays sliders! (see photo) My guests were not bothered at all by the sound and said it was much quieter than a window unit at their apartment. We were able to run it only at night as needed because it cooled the space within @ 20 minutes. This is a home on a barrier island in SWFL with no AC at all. We'll see next month how that affected our electric bill and hope that the unit continues to operate smoothly! I moved the unit to be able to drain the bottom because I plan to do this regularly after use as it will be "stored" in place. I had no idea how much water would drain out. It was relatively easy to do by using a rimmed cookie sheet lined with soaker cloths and moving the corner underneath. (see photo) Even after only a few nights of use there was @ 1/2 cup of water. If you did this often enough and were not on a carpet you could probably place a thick towel underneath to absorb the drainage. I don't ever want to wait for that warning signal to come on!Joanne

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser07/16/2022Love it.Love the fact that it will cool a room quickly while very quiet. Only drawback is the fact that they only have it where one part of air intake in the back fills with dust. I had to get a Q-Tip to clean it as best I could then ended up putting a thin carbon air filter pad over the area so it will be easier to clean.Steph

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser05/19/2022Powerful PortableI checked a lot of places for an affordable portable AC unit for my bedroom, and after reading reviews and specs for this particular model I made the purchase. While waiting for delivery, I found out via another review that this model is rated best for small rooms, and my bedroom is tiny, less than 200sf. Installation was straightforward, the device is simple to use, doesn't take up much room, and this little guy puts out lovely cool air which will make sleeping through our Tucson summer a breeze for both myself and my dog! I'm very happy I bought this portable air conditioner!CarlyL

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser10/13/2021Surprisingly coolI purposely waited to write this review to allow any problems to creep up of there were going to be any. So with that said it's the 14th of Oct. and a received this Midea 5000 btu Portable Air Conditioner with remote on the 19th of June. I think 4 months has been plenty of time, don't you? To date we haven't had any problems with this unit! I don't run it all the time only at night, we have central a/c, but our bedroom gets warmer due to it being the farthest away from the main unit. I've only emptied the water from the unit once, it was easy, I just used the hose that came with it and a flat pan, not much came out but I was just keeping it maintained. I like the way it's free standing so I can set it up beside and in front of our dressers, because I don't have a whole window that's available to place a unit in. We previously had another brand portable unit but I returned it due to it constantly shutting down for no reason and not turning back on. And I'm happy to say this Midea unit has been nothing like the other one. Even though at the time of purchase the Midea brand was unknown to me, I'm so glad I took a chance, it also helped I bought the extended warranty:) We enjoy cool nights sleep every night now. And as the season comes to an end I will easily remove the flexible duct and plate out of the window, clean the filter, drain the unit and store it back in the original box and place it in the corner of the closet for next year.Blessedmomof1

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser08/19/2021Works great and looks nice in the roomThis AC was exactly what I needed for my bedroom. The room is on the third floor, almost exactly 150 square feet, and gets full sun most of the day, but this little unit manages to keep it comfortable even when temps get to the triple digits. What I like most is the small profile and clean look. I had another brand portable AC this size previously and this one blends in much better. I also find it to be pretty quiet as far as portables go (they will always be louder than window units because the compressor sits inside the room). The temp sensing remote is helpful too. All in all I'm very happy with this unit especially for the price.Mick
