[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I already had an 8000 BTU LG in my living room, so it was a no-brainer to purchase a 6000 LG for the bedroom. Very accurate temp control.
Pros: Features/Settings, Performance, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this in time for the HOT summer. AC has lots of options and comes with remote control. After using for about 2 months, the Clean Filter reminder light came on. We rinsed the mostly clean filter and removes a leaf found lodged in a slat on the top of the unit outside the window. Note, to reset and turn off the light, just press the Temp up and down buttons, simultaneously. Even after going with the lower BTU unit, it was still heavier than my old AC, but it did a great job of cooling the slightly larger than recommended bedroom.
Pros: Features/Settings, Performance
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Likes:
Appealing to the eye for a window ac unit.
On board digital control panel neatly positioned. Cooling, energy saver, fan speed, dry seem to work as intended so far.
Has 4 way adjustable air direction. Most only have 2.
Has remote (haven't used as ac and chair are only feet apart.

Dislikes:
Much louder than expected especially when compressor is running.
Cycling on every 3 minutes in energy saving mode is annoying beyond words. Makes it impossible for me to sleep with it in that mode. Maybe you could :-)
The black lever to adjust from recirculated to fresh air and vice versa is worthless. You can see the adjustable flap through the adjustable air directional vents. Pulling the lever out is supposed to open the flap to allow fresh air in (which it does). Pushing lever in is supposed to keep fresh air out (only recirculate the air in the room). This does not work as intended, at least not on mine. You can clearly see outdoor light pretty much all around the flap, when it's closed, allowing fresh (hot, humid air), in when you want to jeep it out and recirculate the cool air already in the room. Design flaw in my opinion.
Relatively short cord. All ac's I've had previously definitely had longer cords.
The swishing (whatever word you prefer), where water accumulates in the tray is annoying as well. Never had this issue with any previous window units, but manual says this is normal with this unit. I'm guessing it has to do with a special type fan this ac has, which others don't. I assume it's designed to assist with the cooling.
Hope this review helps if you are considering this unit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this air conditioner to replace an old one we had with the idea of getting a more energy efficient one. It’s the same amount of BTUs that we had before so it should’ve cooled the room sufficiently as the last one dead. It does not! The room doesn’t get half as cool as the old one got it.Very disappointing.

We bought this unit to replace a 15 year old 8000 BTU unit from a different manufacturer. Although we were downsizing the unit in terms of BTUs, we were hopefully that the performance of this unit would work adequately based on our experience with other LG ACs. We have owned the unit for a month, and although we have only had a few really hot days, the unit's performance is excellent. It adequately cools the bedroom where it is installed, and the energy saver feature is awesome. It does a tremendous job maintaining a steady temperature in the room. It also has a Dry mode which turns the unit into a dehumidifier and still cools the room. We are very pleased with the unit and would buy another one if necessary.
Pros: ease of use, Quality, Features/Settings, Performance
