In search of a more effective air conditioning solution, the author upgrades from an old, noisy window unit to the Midea U-Shaped Window AC. This modern air conditioner is highly rated for its efficiency and quiet operation, allowing window access without safety concerns. The installation process involved ensuring proper leveling to prevent issues, and upon powering it on, the author was thrilled to find it functioned silently, delivering refreshing cool air.
Review after review called it the quietest, most efficient window unit you could buy. It seemed like an obvious choice.
I double-checked my level a half-dozen times, sure that if I got the angle right, I'd never have to think about it again.
Once it was securely fitted in my living room window, I pressed the power button and waited for the familiar roar. Instead, silence.
For nearly a decade, my old Frigidaire did its best: It was dented from three moves, louder than a subway train, and shook my whole building.
