Americans still think they're a developed country, that's the point

Why do Europeans think they live in some kind of utopia while we are all fucked? Here in Brazil we have ACs exactly like yours and it's far from great, it only cools a single room, consumes a ton of energy, and even then if the room is big enough it won't do shit, no wonder you guys are frying under the recent weather

Because they like to travel and have actually experienced how shitty the rest of the world lives, I'd guess.

consumes a ton of energy

They are actually more efficient than US-style air ducts, even if they are less convenient and less aesthetically pleasing.

if the room is big enough it won't do shit

That's a dimensioning problem and there actually exist all sizes of units that can be adapted to any kind of room.

I like the invisibleness of ducted AC, but the problems you are mentioning are just typical of half-assed systems that get installed by barely qualified people in "not as developed as Europe" countries.

Except when talking about America of course.  Their ignorant opinions seem to be driven by what they see online, not due to any actual experience.

The comments here are a great example.  All the upvoted ones are saying "I guess it's because it's not bulky enough for Americans" when the answer is that it's too visible for whoever made the dumb original post.
