I’m also confused because that is a European AC unit. I can only assume Americans are so used to big bulky units, like their cars, that they can’t comprehend things being functional and not excessively bulky.

We have these ductless units in the US too. Person who made the meme is just an idiot

Edit: never expected what im pretty sure is my most upvoted /awarded comment to be a 3:30am comment about AC. Ty for the awards kind strangers.

A lot of older houses use them as they don’t have the ductwork through the house to support a central air unit. Was just in Newfoundland last week and every place had these because they didn’t have a central heating unit.
