It worked for me, it's super, my room stays cold

This portable unit is replacing an old air conditioner that was built into the wall. This one is quiet and cools our living area nicely. We did have to put it on a stand to run the water hose out the window. It was difficult draining the water from the bottom plug. It’s too close to the floor to fit a pan under it. I like that it has a sleep mode and the air vent moves up and down to disburse the cool air.

Overall, I am impressed with this unit. The set up out of the box was straight forward. There are really only three things to do once you unpackage it. First, connect the exhaust duct and vent it out a window, second connect the drain house and run it outside or to a condensate pump unless you want to manually drain the unit when it is full. Third, plug in the power and turn it on. That is really all you need to do besides placing batteries in the remote, which is completely optional.I set my unit up in my garage in the morning. When I turned it on, the garage was just around 80° and relative humidity was 77%. At this time of day, the outside temperature was already in the low 80’s and climbing into the 90’s. It took about an hour for the temperature to drop 5°, but keep in mind that the outside temperature was climbing the entire time. What I observed, and the most noticeable difference, was in the humidity. In that hour, the humidity was reduced to around 50%. I can work in a warm garage but pulling that moisture and humidity out of the air is what I am really looking forward to.The unit is easy to operate. Starting with the power cord, with a built in GFCI breaker, you just push the button to reset the breaker. Once the air conditioner has power you can select a mode. This unit has three modes, cooling, dehumidifying, and fan only. There are also controls for things like shut off timer, fan speed, swing control (for fan oscillation), and temperature. All the controls are fairly intuitive, and they are mirrored on the included remote control. With the quick set up, and the wheels on the bottom for mobility, this is a good portable a/c unit. For near the same price as a comparably sized (btu’s) window unit, this is a substantial value, because you are essentially getting an a/c unit and a dehumidifier, which ever mode you need to use. I

I needed something that was going to cool my room because my room is over 550 feet when I pulled this air condition up. I realize that it can cool a room up to 750 feet. I am not disappointed at all and I love it.

For the past couple of summers our bedroom has been extremely hot. No installation in the room so when it’s hot it’s hot and when it’s cold it’s cold. THIS RIGHT HERE!!! does wonders. Our room is like an ice box now. She loves it I love it. But the only reason I didn’t give it a 5/5 because the instructions to hook up the outside vent was not right. You have to literally ridge it up so the hot air blows outside! But once you get that right everything else is easy.

Between the strong cooling, quiet operation, and simple maintenance, this checks all the boxes for us. The dark gray finish is a nice touch and doesn’t clash with our decor.

I did some testing with an inline watt meter for power consumption and my iphone for the noise.High AC: 1198 watts @ 62 dBLow AC 1100 watts @ 59 dBSleep Mode 1100 watts @ 59 dBFan only:High 75 watts @ 60 dBLow 50 watts @ 41 dBThe unit was easy to set up and works well for a small indoor space. It cannot keep up with the summer heat in my garage but it is nice to sit by when working out there. However, it does pull a lot of humidity out of my garage. I empty several gallons per day. I recommend putting the hose into a bucket for constant drainage. The manual says that it is only needed for dehumidify mode but I've found that to be false as I have constant water drainage in AC mode. The wheels make it easy to move where you need it.

Instead of cooling the whole house, we just focus on the main living areas with this unit. The 24‑hour timer and sleep mode keep things comfortable without hammering the utility bill.

We put this in a finished basement that always felt a bit damp and warm. Now it’s the nicest room in the house; the combo of cooling and dehumidifying makes it much more usable.

I was bracing for a complicated setup, but the window kit went in smoothly. The instructions are clear and I didn’t have to dig out any special tools beyond a screwdriver.
