Best Overall Window ACThe 8,000 BTU Midea U-Shaped MAW08V1QWT keeps small-to-medium spaces cool without running up the energy bill. The unit remains energy efficient thanks to its inverter technology. This allows the motor to run at various speeds. Whereas most simply turn on and off, which can consume quite a bit of energy. The U-shaped design places most of the loud mechanical parts on the window's exterior. Inside, the machine's noise is barely noticeable.

Best for Large SpacesDoesn't remember settingsIf you're searching for a high-quality pedestal fan that won't break the bank, the Honeywell Double Blade 16 is a top option. On its highest setting, we measured the airflow at 12.7, which is well above the average for pedestal fans. It includes three speeds and three modes, all of which can be controlled by the remote.
