Maybe you didn't catch that this is a wall unit, not a window unit. Much easier to put a 2.5" hole in a wall for a minisplit than sticking this whole thing through. The window units are necessary sometimes, yes.

Hard for me to imagine a use case of this over a minisplit
You buy this only when you have to. When mini-split isn't an option, like in an apartment. This is a great price for what it is. But I hate them. Super expensive in general.

I see these often for campers/RVs/mobile home parks. They can't do mini splits, dont have standard windows for windows units, or their overhead units died/too expensive.

I understood it completely well. What I was pointing out is that many people in apartments can't modify their apartments because they are rented or a co-op or a condo and they don't have the option of going with a mini-split.
Can't modify apartment….
WALL. UNIT.

People who use these already have through the wall air conditioners installed. You are correct that for a brand new installation mini splits are superior though have a more intricate installation. You're not going to be able to install a mini split easily if you're on the 12th floor of an apartment building for example.

really it comes down to cost considerations and installation feasbility:
1) when you already have a wall sleeve from a previous installation, so it's more cost effective to replace the old broken one with a new one like this. we have a rental property where the previous owner many years ago, cut through the brick and installed a wall sleeve for an A/C. when that A/C broke, we removed it and installed a Friedrich through-the-wall A/C into the existing wall sleeve, and done. total cost was $450 at the time, vs thousands for a mini split install
2) you are unable to put in a minisplit due to installation constraints (ie hotel rooms or condo units that have balconies or other structures that prevent running linesets and there isn't room for the condenser unit to sit on the outside). also HOAs which didn't allow window A/Cs many years ago but allowed homeowners many years ago to install through the wall A/Cs, have CC&R's which reflect only the replacement of existing wall sleeve A/Cs and not the installation of mini split units (to maintain exterior conformity)
other than that, mini splits are the way to go
