Our cooling is awesome. One unit cooled the whole house this past summer.
We did have a few hot spells. But, a few days in the 90s is nothing compared to AZ..

You can get older tech non-inverter units.. They are cheaper and less efficient.
Low SEER, with fixed speed compressors. Nothing you want.

Some modern hi SEER units can run in a 'Quiet' mode. Or in low fan..
That allows them to run very quietly.. Most of the time, you can't tell when the are on.
Even the outdoor units are low noise..

Here's the only good pic of a remote I could find on-line.. Mine looks much better..(More buttons)..
