HOWEVER - it has a known flaw. When it gets cold outside, like 40 degrees or cooler, the heat will not turn on. The fix is you have to relocate the intake temp sensor,to inside your house - then it'll work fine. This is detailed on a few Reddit posts, and is an easy modification to make.
Overall, love these untis, but they will go on sale for $300 for the heat-pump ones if patient - have a few Toshiba ones (rebranded Midea's) myself and they are great!
I posted this deal last time and got it. I haven't used it so can't tell you how it is compared to the midea. I have the midea with heat and it's great so far.

The model with heat as well has been posted twice before: https://slickdeals.net/f/16729484 and https://slickdeals.net/f/16776611 , but I believe it should be the same otherwise?
I heard that the heating on portable air conditioners is not very good. Do you know if that's true with this one?

It is, just a different style. There's ones with 2 separate hoses and some that are a hose in a hose like this one.

Some modern inverter compressors WITH inverter fans do a much better job verses your normal 100% on or completely off compressor or budget inverter unit with just an inverter compressor but they still hit a wall where they cannot 'recover' enough heat. Darn flawed physics

At least you cannot sleep while it is running.
