I just bought it but like this unit; it's easy to set the target temperature, blows cold air, reduces humidity quickly, and typically doesn't require emptying water out. It serves as a fan, humidifier, or A/C unit. It has a five year part and one year labor warranty so they expect it to last for awhile.

I bought an inexpensive window A/C 2 years ago to keep my bedroom colder than the whole house at night. It lasted a year and a half. Kind of hurt my back getting it in and out, this portable unit seems like a better option for four months/year of use (it will roll into the closet for storage). I won't awake to the rain pounding on the the window unit during storms.

Here are a few cautions though- 1) it needs to sit 20" from a wall for air flow, 2) it's hot air vent duct to the window will only bend so much, so your going to have keep it within a couple feet of a window, 3) remote only operation- don't lose the remote, 4) the manual cautions that it will turn off if water pan fills (typically only in extreme humidity conditions), if this happens you need to set a cake pan under it and open a drain line 5) the vent duct snaps into a plastic window slider that fits under your window sash. I have 42" wide windows, the slider's max. length is about 36", I had to make a vent holder using a 42"x1"x6" board. The original vent holder slider uses two cheapo snaps but there are no holes on one side of the slider so you can't use the second snap as instructed in the manual. This isn't a big deal but I was hoping for a little higher quality of slider for this price (although I consider the unit and vent duct fairly high quality).

Considering the cautions, don't let me talk you out of this unit. It works great and I would buy it again.

What's great about it: Installs in a few minutes, cold air

What's not so great: Remote only operation, low quality window vent bracket

I would recommend this to a friend!
