Our Verdict

LG LW6023IVSM

Midea MAW08V1YWT-S

The Midea MAW08V1YWT-S and LG LW6023IVSM are evenly matched window A/Cs. The Midea is the more space-efficient package, with similar capacity in a smaller, lighter body. It also runs slightly more efficiently. However, the LG is noticeably quieter, particularly at lower, quieter fan speeds, which could be the deciding factor if you're very sensitive to operating noise.
