Our scoreNot reviewed yetSCORE7.5 / 10
Our takeBlack+Decker's inverter portable: 8,000 BTU SACC at a DOE-certified CEER of 12.0, about 45% less electricity per BTU than the BPACT10WT. The B+D we'd buy; little owner history yet.The December 2024 U revision, not recalled, at CEER 16 with ENERGY STAR Most Efficient status. About 6% less power than the CEER 15 V1UWT for the same cooling, which is nice but not worth chasing a hard-to-find listing.

Watch out forWe couldn't confirm its warranty terms; its manual's warranty pages didn't come through as text. The listing headline is the ASHRAE number; size by DOE SACC.Midea sold the U2QWT and the recalled U1QWT with the same CEER ratings and near-identical titles; one digit separates them.
