We can't comment on brands. Just get the best warranty coverage, from the highest quality dealer and installed correctly and you'll be happy. Make sure someone has sized your units correctly also.:.02:

The Lennox is a solid but no frills 13 SEER. Nicer than the Mexican Merit unit, I think the only extra to it is a high pressure switch for protection of the compressor if the refrigerant pressure gets too high.

The Tempstar is a deluxe unit. High & low pressure switches connected to a Copeland Comfort Alert diagnostics module. Usually don't see that in a 13 SEER. Also 2 speed fan motor and compressor cover, also not real common in that category. So will end up a little quieter than most 13s, especially when the fan is on low.

Of course, key is best possible install and sized right.
