Nice little AC!

We've had our Windmill for a little over a week now and so far it's doing great! I like the app and how the display does not stay lit up. It was relatively easy to install and I do like the design. Customer service was also awesome and extremely quick to reply.

Set up was very quick and easy. Much easier using two person to lift into window. Directions were very clear. Air is blowing strong and cold.

Great but I have some questions…

The AC works really well and arrived quickly.
The app is super awesome and I love that I can turn my AC on or off without needing the find the little remote or walk over to it.
Installation was fairly easy. I really struggled with and am still concerned about the “screws” though. They included screws but there’s nothing to actually screw them into.
I’m a bit nervous about it falling out of my window if something hits it or something of that nature. Other than that I’m really happy with it!

Great customer service. Still figuring out if I like or love.

We haven’t really put the A/C through its paces yet. But, I wanted to write a positive review about the customer service.
When I installed the Windmill (6000) in a small bedroom window, the first night it was really loud. In contrast we have the Midea U shaped A/C in our front window. That is really quiet and I love that A/C but it was a hair too wide for the bedroom window screen frame. So, I opted for the Windmill which just fits.
So, yes, 1st night. Loud. Like an airplane turbine winding up. I emailed them the next morning saying I wanted to return it (I planned to replace with a Midea and I would just force the Midea into the frame). They emailed me back so fast. I sent them a video of the A/C operating. Within a day and a half we had a replacement shipped by a local delivery company. It was MUCH quieter than the first one. And, so far it works great.
-I like in the bedroom that the air blows upwards. I have a fan clipped next to it if I want to blow it my way.
-So far gets the room cool fast. Though it hasn’t really been challenged by a heat wave yet.
-I like the app function saying how much power you used.
-There’s a couple tweaks in the app I wish could change. I would like to know when/if the A/C is running. I want more control for when I’m sleeping. It’s not clear cut as far as scheduling. Basically, I want the A/C to turn on when the room goes above a certain temperature (when I’m sleeping) and turn off when it reaches that set point. And, I want a daytime setting (I’m not in the bedroom and it doesn’t need to run at the same temperature parameter). It’s been weirdly difficult to get it working this preference. Maybe I’m just not understanding. But, the scheduling part feels clunky or not fleshed out in a way I would like to use it. We’re not typical A/C users. We prefer it not running. Eco mode is annoying because it fires up the fan intermittently. If I set it to “cool mode”, it just runs and I don’t want that. I only want it to run/turn off minimally in a way where I don’t lose sleep because it’s too hot. Which, unfortunately due to climate change, there are more and more of those nights in the summer.

Windmill support made it extremely easy to replace a noisy unit. It shipped quickly and the experience was enjoyable.
