The 115v 12k BTU version is $426 after coupon.
Note, the white poly foam that comes on these cheap linesets is known to cause a corrosive reaction between the copper and condensation that forms and will result in pinhole leaks over time. Remove and replace with UV resistant black foam, like K-Flex Titan. You can get it online directly from somewhere like SupplyHouse. Also, do both lines, unlike traditional condensers both lines need to be insulated.
As previous poster mentioned, do also use Nylog on the flare faces. That $10 will save you hundreds in leaks.

FWIW, any of these no name mini splits are going to be a gamble buying replacement parts. If you want parts availability (long term) you'll need to stick to Mitsu, Fujitsu, LG, Carrier, etc since parts are rarely interchangeable on mini splits between brands. But those big brands aren't sold on DIY platforms so be prepared to pay 2-3K+ for install.
One of our neighbor's house burned down when their cheap mini-split caught fire. Two months later, same thing happened to my dad's neighbor. Be careful folks.

Fires occur when the installer is an idiot.
