AWESOME PORTABLE AC UNIT!
on November 21, 2023
Posted by: TheWraith2012
from South Texas
This Portable AC Unit is Awesome for the size room I'm in, in fact it's the right size. Now for those that may wonder why the hose attachment falls out, you may have not been aware that once you insert it into the plastic frame,you know the one that the window close onto, you have to either while its inserted, either slid it to the far left or the far right, that in itself will lock it from coming out, second, you take the one screw that it comes with in the bag and then use either the right pre-drilled hole or the left predrilled hole that is in the house attachment that is on the left and right side of it depending if you have it either slid to the far left you will need to use the pre-drilled hole on the left or the right side of the hose attachment to screw into flat piece that the widow closes on and using a very small drill bit to drill through the flat piece of plastic that the window clamps down on to hold into place, for example, you insert the plastic piece that the hose screws into, I would highly recommend before screwing the hose into the plastic duct piece to go ahead get that basically inserted and slip it to the far left the host duct piece you know the piece that the hose screws into then goes into the window outfit that the window closes onto, then once you have that portion done, THEN, you can take the hose duct and slowly screw it into the hose outlet duct that will already be secured by either having it either slid to the far left and the one screw mounted to it, OR if you have it inserted and slid to the far right, you use the right side hole to secure it, then your all set to screw the hose into and then take the other piece that slides on the back of the ac, screw that on the hose, then Viola! you done, plug the ac in turn it on and let er rip :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Actually, this product is not as efficiently concerning the voltage it claims to use., it cramp a 900-1000 voltage while is in high mode. is a concerning issued with the electricity here where i live. The cooling stream is not constant, I think it it should be sync with the temperature control and it does not reach it.Over the packaging is good, it a well-designed product,
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Response from geappliances.comBy Sylvia@GEA, GE_Appliances, September 13, 2023
Hi,
We appreciate you leaving a review for this portable air conditioner. We're sorry to hear this unit's not cooling properly. Staying cool is important this time of year and we want to help.
Please know that this unit requires 115 volts for operation. Appliances with compressors have a brief surge of power when the compressor cycles on. This is called the "surge" or "start-up" amps, and is about 2x to 3x the running amps. For additional energy information, please refer to the energy guide in the following link.

Page 13 of the owner's manual explains what causes this unit to not cool properly. Here's a link you can use.

Cools well, but is quite loud
on July 26, 2023
Posted by: RebeccaNYC
from New York, NY
Cools quite well, but is extremely loud even at the Low Fan setting. It was easy to set up and the window adapter is well designed. The airflow output is also good. This particular model is being used in a very small bedroom, so I can only speak to its ability to cool a room that is less than 150 square feet, with a 9 foot ceiling. If you cannot use a window unit (which I cannot it this room), this is a good option, but there is no question that a window unit would be much quieter.
I would recommend this to a friend!
