I LOVE IT!!!! I’m a 46 year old woman and I put it together in a few minutes. It comes with everything you need minus tape,if you choose to use tape. I purchased the 8,000 btu and it’s fine for the room I have it in. Idk the sq ft of the room,but it’s big enough for a full size bed,Chest drawer,totes, a couple of standing tables (small) and two dog cages and plenty of walking space still. This is the room the pets chose to chill out in now so I got them this because the 2 fans just weren’t cutting it on our 90 degree days! The first day I installed it they were all so peaceful,laid out and resting 😃. You can change the direction of the vent for the air,it has several settings including a sleep setting. It doesn’t take up much space at all. The hose that goes out of the window is of nice length. It rolls which makes it very convenient for maneuvering it if need be. Comes with a remote that takes two triple A batteries,batteries were included. I was able to get it in the house by myself with no issue. It’s very important that I mention it has a drainage hose for the leakage. I’m not in a garden apartment or low level apartment so I can’t put the hose (which is very short) out of the window so it could leak outside therefore until I figure out a better way I have the drainage hose sitting over in a small bathroom size wastebasket to catch the water. I’ve timed it so I know that I can do 7 hours before it needs to be dumped. Even though that may seem like an inconvenience it’s not a dealbreaker for me because I actually love this portable unit just that much. The room is very cool and stays cool once it’s actually cooled off. It makes what I think people refer to as “white noise”,but I can still hear just fine when I’m in here with the pets and I’m either on my phone or watching tv. I paid 209$ for it,I see it’s about 20$ less now so perhaps grab it. Either ways it’s worth the money. I did a lot of research on portable AC units before actually going with this one,very pleased!! Also,this particular unit is made for more than one style window which was a plus for me. If I can remember I’ll come back with an update regarding the difference in my electrical bill. Would I rebuy,absolutely!! UPDATE: I purchased this at the end of June and I’ve cut it off twice because the temps had dropped. My bill only increased by 78$ and we are now a few days shy of Sept. I think that’s pretty good considering it’s been running everyday (with the exception of 2) on between 66-71. I’m pleased with that. I was nervous,but it was so hot 🥵 that I didn’t care about the bill hike I wanted all of my fur babies to be comfortable and I reaped the benefits as well 😂! Also,the remote stopped working. Obviously I checked the batteries and they were new,but still couldn’t get it to work. Reached out to the Company and without issue I sent them a screenshot of my invoice and within a day they sent me out a new remote (free of charge) and two days sister they sent me the tracking info. Very pleased with the service from beginning to end. Think I’ll buy another next year because I now know that it works great,the Company provides great customer support and the cost to run it didn’t break the bank. Read more

We bought this for our 12x12 upstairs office, and it works amazing. It fits snugly under my desk, runs very quietly, and cools the room down fast—even in Florida summer heat where this room usually gets uncomfortably hot. The size is great, the airflow is strong, and it keeps the space consistently cool without feeling like it’s working too hard. For how well it performs, the value is solid. We’re actually considering getting another one for the bedroom. It was very easy and quick to install too. Read more

Defective model. I was careful to read reviews prior to purchasing and they were good but since have changed to negative. This unit is pretty quiet and works very well WHEN it works. I use this to keep bedroom cooler at night but writing this in the middle of the night because the unit once again has malfunctioned. I set the temperature then set fan to low but in the middle of the night the fan speed switches to high on its own. Other times the unit shuts itself off and no I am not engaging the timer. Now the digital display is reading between 21° and 32 I believe the control boards are defective. Customer service is nonexistent Do not waste your time and money Now the question is how to return this hunk of junk, oh joy Read more

Over all, I am very pleased with this AC unit. It does a great job of keeping my room cool and the fan noise is very relaxing and a great white noise to sleep to. But I have a question: if I’m running it on the AC set to a certain temp, once it hits that temp the unit turns off. I’m curious if there’s a way to have the fan keep running instead of the whole unit turn off. When just the fan is on, the cooling feature isn’t engaging. Is there a way to have the fan start and run once the cooling off? Or keep the fan part on, and when the temperature rises above the set temp, it’s supposed to it kicks on the cooling feature?Help!

I’ve only had it for about six weeks now, but this baby cranks! During this year‘s prime days I was going crazy comparing various portable air conditioners. It seemed like every product had positive and negative reviews. I finally narrowed it down to this one and another and I’m so glad I got this one! It works very very well! It saved me from not being able to move from heat exhaustion during an extra hot and humid New England summer. I live in a Victorian building with no central AC. I kept this one in the bedroom with the door open, and not only did it cool the bedroom, but it seemed to help the small window unit I have in the living room to keep the living room cool as well. I will say it is extraordinarily heavy! That’s to be expected I suppose. And the other reviews that mentioned that it is loud were right. It is definitely not a quiet unit. But after a few minutes lying in bed it just turned into white noise for me. And personally I was much better able to sleep with the noise than the heat I would’ve had without it !!! As a sidenote I have never used the dehumidifying feature. The dehumidifying feature is the one that seems to have created all the leaks that some reviews speak of. 🤷🏼♀️ Read more

So I am just letting people who have old homes and bad insulation know that this is not the AC unit for you. I had a wall unit in from the early 90's that kept my room cool. It began leaking bad so I tried to upgrade to a lighter, more convenient machine. It heats up my room. I could use this as a heater. lol IDK!!! I have put plastic on the windows, wrapped the exhaust hose and taped both ends and my room is at 80 degrees at 7p in NC. Old house but still, the wall unit worked good, not the coldest but way better that this unit. Wish it worked but I gotta send it back. Read more
