Great Unit...But..Using this in a closed/semi-sealed room under 500 sq ft won't work well. I placed it in my approx 450 sq ft (mostly sealed) garage, with the hose vented to the outside as directed and it sucked so much air out of the garage that my Home furnace quit working and I could literally feel air being sucked out of the wall sockets.
So in order to work properly in a room under 500 sq ft you need to open a window or have a large air vent to the outside which kind of defeats the purpose. On the upside this monster still heats my garage up in less than 10 minutes. Have not used the Air Conditioner yet.
Spoke with NewAir and their Customer service is top notch, have bought a few items from them over the years. They said I bought too large of a Unit for my space, and should return/exchange for a smaller BTU rating. May do this. But it's a pain trying to repackage for shipping..

I had very high hopes for this little portable unit and bought it for the ability to use this all year round as both an AC and a heater. I live in the Mojave Desert of Southern California and it gets HOT. While sitting in front of it, the AC blows ice cold air, but it unfortunately didn't cool my room, which is half of what it's supposed to be able to cool. It didn't get it below 80 even though I had it at its lowest possible setting (I wasn't expecting it to lower the room to 62). The only time it got pretty chilly was at night when the temp outside dropped drastically. I think this unit is probably amazing for someone who doesn't live in such a hot climate. It just couldn't keep up with the heat outside. Other than that, the appearance is very sleek and looks well made. I was very pleased with the little space it needed and while it wasn't super quiet, it was a lot quieter than other AC's I've owned.

Excellent AC/Heat unit!

I've been comparing these units for awhile, trying to figure out which one would be best for me. My Brother-In-Law uses 3 other brands that are 10,000btu and 11,000btu, but they are loud and have other issues with drainage and efficiency. I decided to try this one, and have been very impressed. It's much quieter than the others that I've seen used, and puts out much better airflow. I'm very happy with this unit and would highly recommend it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great System for Summer and Winter

I do alot of work in my un air-conditioned garage, and I needed something that would heat and cool with out having to cut a large hole in the wall for a window unit or install central air. I have had this for about a year and I cannot say anything bad. It has all the accessories with it so you can vent it through a window, or a wall through a small cutout. This is a big unit and it did a good job cooling and heating my uninsulated garage. Now you cannot expect this thing to keep it at 59 degrees in 100 degree weather, but it does a darn good job. The heater does a very good job for being a heat pump.
It has held up through painting, saw dust and general abuse, but has not given me any issues.
The best thing about it is the condensation goes into a little jug instead of the garage floor.
I would recommend this to anyone as long as they understand this is portable, and only works as well as your environment. If you had this in an insulated room it will freeze you out
