Midea EasyCool 5,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner

A 5,000 BTU window unit sized for a single bedroom of up to about 150 square feet. Controls are two mechanical dials — one for temperature, one for fan — so there is no app, no pairing and nothing to set up. The filter slides out and washes under a tap, which is the only maintenance it needs.

What you get

• 5,000 BTU, rated for rooms up to 150 sq ft, so a standard bedroom cools down rather than the unit running flat out all night
• Three fan speeds with a two-way air stream, so you can aim the cold air away from the bed instead of straight at it
• Mechanical dial controls, which means nothing to configure and nothing to go wrong in software
• Removable, washable, reusable filter, so upkeep is rinsing it out rather than buying replacements
• Cooling and fan-only modes, so it moves air on mild days without running the compressor
• Side panels included, so the window install is done with what is in the box
