It's May!  Can't stand to post warm season related questions in the winter banter thread!

I need to pick up some window air conditioners this season.  Unhappy with a GE unit I purchased last year.  What brands/models are folks having success with that last more than two or three seasons?  As much as I like to do things to help the environment, these high efficiency window units don't last like the units from the "good ole days".  And before you ask - can't afford mini-splits... yet...

I can’t recommend the Midea u-shaped AC high enough. Quiet and efficient. I’ve had one for 2 years and I love it.

I have 4 units, its amazing how much more efficient they are at cooling my house. Keeps whole house comfortable.  Previously had 3 older window units and a Portable AC it's laugable how much better the Midea's are. The Portable AC was absolutely awful.
