While these are reliable, dual hose units - the newer Midea Inverter based units are more efficient, quieter and move a whole lot more air.
Own both the Whynter ARC-14s in storage now as backups, as well as the 14k BTU Midea units, which have replaced the Whynters at our house.

It's hard to describe how much better the Midea units are - soft ramp up for the compressor, and running at fractional compressor capabilities to maintain room temperature - the inverter compressor control is fantastic. Additionally, the Mideas are wireless enabled - you can set schedules with the app, and control them remotely. The Wynters are just hard ON at 100% capacity or OFF - there is no middle ground with them, but they are fine units - just older, less efficient technology.
I have one of those refurbished Toshiba and haven't had a problem with the ac. The Toshiba is quieter than this one and cools down my living room pretty quickly. I don't think this is a inverter compare toToshiba which can save you money in the long run.
The Toshiba/rebranded Midea refurbished inverter one on woot that everyone is talking about is actually dual hose even though it looks like a single. It's a hose inside another much bigger hose so it's still two airstreams. So I'd believe it if the efficiency is just as good or better than this Whynter. That and the heating and wifi integration on the Toshiba work pretty nicely.

Amazon told me no price adjustment on this. But thery recommended I "request" (normal process for cancellation) to cancel the first purchase, then re-buy it at the new price. I did. Took seconds to receive email confirmation of my completed refund. Bought again. Got the new price. What a deal.

Manually cancel if it's not shipped yet. (it's a request, but should be granted usually if not shipped) Wait two beats to receive confirmation of refund in your Amazon email. Buy again.

I bought in July 2020 from HD and it's not cooling this season. We use just for 3-4 months during summer. Also more noisy compared to newer ones and less energy efficient.

Too bad my order has already been shipped and cannot be cancelled. Can I refuse the package when it arrives?

Thank you OP, I bought one at Home Depot for $450 last week. Just retroactively pricematched with customer service. You just saved me $100 + tax.
Thank you OP and madcowdisease!! I purchased mine from Home Depot last month for $499. Unfortunately did not get a price match from Home Depot but purchased one from Amazon and going to return this one to the store Smilie

I would try either chat or a different phone rep. The first one I got was incompetent and kept blabbing on about it being a Prime only price (it isn't). Odds are you will be successful on your second try.

this thing is a beast. i've had it for over 9 years now and still cooling strong. it is quite loud though. one thing that bothers me is that the unit blows almost directly upwards so if you need it to point in a certain direction, it is challenging. also, it is on the larger end of portable ACs so be sure you measure the space properly and insulate well or you will feel the hot air.

There are AC built for sliding windows but the size is a hit or miss base on the window. You might still be able to use the traditional window ac by removing the windows and do a custom/creative fitting. I removed my sliding windows and installed a midea u shaped ac there. Do some measurements and see if your window frame will fit.
I have a sliding window too and want to get the midea u shape. I've been looking on YouTube to see if there are videos on how to do this but couldn't find any. How did you do yours?
