Great portable a/c

I purchased this to replace a 2 month old $600 portable unit that broke. I was greatly surprised at how well this one works and it was half the price. Would definitely buy again if I need to replace another unit.
Pros: Compact, easy to install
Cons: A little loud. Wish there was a whisper feature
THIS PRODUCT HAS MET AND EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS . SIMPLE TO INSTALL AND OPERATE. WE HAVE ANDERSEN CASEMENT WINDOWS SO WE HAD TO HAVE A POLYCARBONATE WINDOW FABRICATED FOR THE VENT TO THE OUTDOORS. AT FIRST I WAS GOING TO INSTALL A DRYER VENT IN OUR BEDROOM WALL BUT DECEIDED TO HAVE A POLY WINDOW FABRICATED TO THE SAME SIZE AS THE EXISTING SCREEN IT WOULD REPLACE ON HOT DAYS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING 1/8 POLY AND GETTING IT FRAMED WITH THE MATCHING MATERIAL THAT YOUR SCREEN IS FRAMED IN. GLASS PEOPLE CUT THE EXACT SIZE HOLE IN THE POLY TO ACCEPT THE OVAL SHAPED VENT. WE DIDNT EVEN NEED TO USE THE REMAINING WINDOW FITTINGS THAT ACCOMPANIED THE AIR CONDITIONER. TOTAL COST $60 AT OUR LOCAL GLASS SUPPLIER . AIR CONDITIONER ARRIVED IN LESS THAN A WEEK, PACKED SAFELY ,IN PERFECT SHAPE AND IS EXCELLENT!! AIR AND WATER PEOPLE WERE TOTALLY HELPFUL AND GREAT. GLAD I FOUND THEM ON LINE!!
Love love love this. Bought this for my daughters house. Works great and love that it is portable. I babysit for her often and as a menopausal mom (lol) this works great. I get the added cool air I so need!
It isn't hot enough to know if this unit cools efficiently. So far, though, I like it a lot. Well packed, came fast and easy to install I thought. It sits there purring rather unintrusively in my small apartment. I THINK one of the functions is to bring in outside air in the ventilation mode...so I like that...if indeed that is happening....the manual isn't very clear on the issue.
Without a separate ac unit for the upstairs bonus room, it gets hot when the ac isn't running. This unit solves the problem. It is moderately quit and easy to operate and maintain.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for a small upstairs room

Works well and cools whole room, but plastic window installation pieces are cheap and don't stay in place. I must apply tape or they slip out taking the warm evacuation hose with it.
Pros: Accurate Temperature Controls, Cools the Whole Room, Easily Portable
