Must be Costco member to purchase either.

Midea 12,000 BTU Cooling Inverter Window Air Conditioner $339.99 [costco.com].

LG 9.5k BTU Dual Inverter Smart Window Air Conditioner $289.99 after $110 off
[costco.com]- Expired, OOS

$110 off on LG unit is valid 5/9-5/13 only.

Reverse cycle heat on the Midea only goes down to 40, so this isn't likely to replace your primary heat source. It's still a great innovation in this type of device though.

Both of these energy efficient window inverter air conditioners are tremendous values. The LG unit is currently $449 at the Home Depot!

Yes it is a heat pump.... but so is ANY air conditioner. Anything that moves heat from one location to another is a heat pump. What makes this Midea different is that it is an inverter air conditioner, more efficient (uses less power) than a regular non-inverter type. Inverter AC uses maybe 30% less electricity to do the same cooling. Will also be quieter as the compressor speed is variable as opposed to non inverter's always in full speed compressor (on only or off no speed variability).
For what it's worth, I have a dead 1.5 year old Midea chest freezer in my driveway leaking blood for the past week and I can't get anybody to answer my phone calls or talk to me about warranty claims or unit repair. Be sure you have a good protection plan with a company who will respond. Lowe's and Assurant have not been helpful thus far.
U-Shaped is a little more efficient than this one. 15.0 ceer versus 13.3. Probably a savings of $50-$100 per year on electricity, depending on use. Also, the U-Shape comes with its own mounting bracket, the likes of which run $80-$90 everywhere.

While the heat feature sounds interesting, I can't imagine using it for more than a few odd weather days per year, given the limitations.

Lastly, for those considering the LG, check the reviews of nearly identical previous models. Quite underwhelming, to say the least.

How does it destroy the window (oh, no, an invisible screw hole is left, however will I cope with life)? How is the window unusable...it already has an AC in it?
Are you on drugs? Seek help.

Wut? No. Run a screw into each side through window frame into studs just above the open sash. Ta da.
Amazing that you can't remember what you wrote. I don't have time to educate you, off to the ignore list.

Mine just arrived damaged, looks like someone dropped it. Wish costco would pack them better instead of just sending in original box. But atleast they are sending new one expedited shipping

Mine is also damaged, so are many others. I initially thought it was dropped. After many reported the same issue, this cannot be a coincidence. I think Midea ran out of inventory, and they only got the damaged items and they just shipped them out so customer would complain later and then they would ship new one out. This way they are buying time for more shipment to arrive from China.

Anyone know where I can still buy one of these? This is exactly the unit I want (prefer having heat vs. the U-shaped model), but don't see it listed on Costco.com any more.
