This little compact a/c is a beast!! I love it! I got if for a master bedroom and in height of a heatwave it kept it nice and chilly. I did put up black out curtains to kept out the sun. It was super easy to set up. Directions were easy to follow. The room was cooled in under an hour & it was unbearably hot. Ultimately this little unit cooled my whole apt when I put a fan in the hallway of the bedroom to circulate the air. I’ll be honest I kept it running non stop for 3 days on high in the day & on low setting at night. The air flow is strong. It’s quiet for a portable a/c. It’s no louder than a fan on medium. I’m very happy so far with this unit. It survived & performed well in its first heatwave. If anything goes wrong I will comeback with an update. This is not a paid for review! Read more

This is a great AC unit for our bedroom that gets southern sun exposure - where the central HVAC doesn’t quite do the job. It’s great at cooling the space down (roughly 240 square feet, with a high sloped ceiling). I expect my electric bill will be lowered as this little cooler allows us to set the central AC at a higher temperature house-wide. Prior to using this little guy, we’d crank the central air to keep the bedroom comfortable, while the rest of the house was quite icy. Now there’s temperature balance between the rest of the house and the bedroom. As this is the only portable AC unit I’ve ever owned, I have no other standard to compare it to. Please read the following minor complaints with this in mind. It is a little loud, in that, if one doesn’t sleep with earplugs, it can disturb sleep as it cycles on and off throughout the night. This could be mitigated by using the sleep function so the unit automatically turns off. Consistent with another reviewer, the connectivity is an issue if you plan to use your mobile to control the unit. This is mitigated by ability to use the enclosed remote. Finally, I found the air vent hose easily popping out of the unit itself and out of the enclosed window venting panel. Ultimately, I just put the air vent hose out the window, tossed that frustrating window panel, and left the window slightly open. It still cools the space to seemingly Arctic degrees despite having the window slightly ajar. Overall, it’s a great buy and I would recommend it to others. Read more

This portable AC is a lifesaver! It cools down my room fast and handles the summer heat like a champ. The dehumidifier feature is a bonus, and I love that I can control it from my phone using WiFi—super convenient when I’m too lazy to get up. Setup was simple, and it’s not too loud, which is great for sleeping or working. It’s perfect for my space, and the sleek blue design looks nice too. If you need a reliable and easy-to-use AC, this one’s a great pick! Read more

I have purchased the 8k btu for a bedroom and both the 12k btu & 14k btu for the living room. 8,000 BTU AC: Works great even with the fan developing a spot without air. My bedroom is about ~125 sqft connected to a ~50 sqft closet that connects to a ~50 sqft bathroom. This cools all of that great, my room gets COLD. I can run it without cycling as long as it’s set to a low setting (61-65°F) or on “dry” mode. Small compared to other machines, easy to move and set up. Nois is as expected, like a loud box fan (I like loud white noise), have not had any leaks or drainage issues. 14,000 & 12,000 BTU ACs: Same experience for both, but I had the 14k longer. The pros are the decent size, and the WiFi option is nice. However, both did not cool my space. I used the 14k for longer and If anything, it made my space hotter. My living area is somewhat small. Open living/kitchen & attached den space are all around 350 sqft, this claims to cool 600 at peak. This cycles too often and the compressor is off & blowing hot air for way longer than it is on (attached photos shows how many minutes it’s on vs off). I followed the directions, I made sure everything was how and where it needed to be, I even insulated the hose. Nothing worked. I even tested it on a cool day where the temp was 65° out and it ended up making my space 76°. The cycling is way too big a disturbance to make it functional as an AC even on a cool day in my experience. Read more
