It was quick and easy to set up and sufficiently cools the middle part of a 600 square foot old apartment that has no insulation. It was purchased to keep a thick furred Maine Coon cat comfortable when the temperature reaches 90 outside. Rather than panting and not knowing what to do with herself, she now has the coolest spot on the end of the sofa.
I would recommend this to a friend!

They are great to work with!

We received this unit to use in our 5th wheel trailer where my husband works from home on occasion. It get's too cold in our area and the trailer isn't insulated enough to let the heater work. But as a Ac unit it has worked pretty well! It takes the edge off and makes it bearable to work out there without dying. It is a bit on the loud side and it is a bit bulky. I like the remote option but the numbers on did seem to fade and it's hard to see them.

I researched many different models before I bought this. It works very well. No leaking at all. In fact practically no water at all in the reservoir despite hot and humid conditions. It works quite well and is powerful.

100% satisfied with customer service and product

Called customer service prior to ordering. I was concerned about noise level. On high, this unit runs at 56 db which is not intrusive. Free shipping both ways if I am not satisfied sold me. Unit was delivered quickly, within promised time frame. My home is in north central Idaho. Summer days are upper 90's. I have a large open area which includes living room, kitchen, laundry room, also high ceilings, close to 600 sq ft. Only used four times since receiving (no electic bill as yet) but happily found the temp. in my home was cooled to 77 when outside was 94. The reservoir for quicker cooling works well, runs about an hour or more then needs refilling. I drained the unit and found the process easy although after only four days not much water to drain. Installation was easy and with wide windows (45) the adapter was more than sufficient. I don't normally write reviews but am so satisfied with this company and product I felt compelled to do so. I plan to order another type of cooler for each of the two bedrooms.

Awesome AC unit

I'm using this AC unit on our 30' Hunter sailboat, and it is doing a fantastic job in all this extreme heat we are having down here in south Mississippi, and the best part, is it will also keep us warm this winter!

We just moved into a rental house with no a/c on the brink of an unusual heat wave in Colorado. We did not have the unit while it was around 104 degrees for several days, but we have used it since it has been in the upper 90's and it is really making a difference. It's not as good as having a whole-house a/c system, of course, but it keeps the living room and kitchen between 75-79 degrees in the heat of the day, while not having to blast it at full power. Since our house was built around 1960 - and has funky wiring - I am careful not to overload the circuits so I do not put it at max fan speed or the lowest temp. (We found we had to plug the unit into a min. of 20A circuit or it would trip the breaker after only a few minutes). Its important to mention we cannot close off the kitchen completely (no door) and we are keeping the bedroom and bathroom doors shut, so the cooling stays in the living room, hallway and kitchen which is open to a basement stairwell. The total square footage is around 510 combined. All in all we our happy with the unit and it is saving us! If we could close the area off completely the unit would probably work even better.

It did what it said and so far cools nice. Will test heater later. I am very happy. The remote and controls all use symbols so I had to keep looking in book. Now I am starting to remember.
