Insignia™ - 250 Sq. Ft. Portable Air Conditioner - White

My old Best Buy bought Frigidaire air conditioner fell out the window and disintegrated so I needed a new one and did not want to deal with a window model again so I got this 6,000 btu Insignia portable a/c, my first one of its type. So far I like it.. it's easy to put the exhaust hose out the window.. this carries heat to the outside and the unit itself, while heavy, rolls around smoothly on wheels. The A/C can get pretty cold so I have to watch the temperature. I like how when you turn the a/c on the vent first rises and then the a/c starts. The remote that it comes with works well and has many functions. You can control the vent angle with the remote. You can also turn the LED lights on and off which is a thoughtful inclusion. The exhaust tube gets mildly warm but I don't think it has much effect on the cooling power of the a/c to be honest. So yeah, overall, I like it. It works good, no window dangers, is easy to transport and has a great price here at BB.

Bought this a couple weeks ago. There weren't any reviews when I purchased so I really blindly purchased because it was the cheapest portable air conditioner I could find. PROs Blows cold air. Blasts cold air in an up down motion. Easy to install. Remote makes it convenient to turn on and off. CONs Super heavy. Was a pain to carry up stairs. You need to separate about a foot and a half from wall and window. Maybe all portable ac units require this but I didn't know that when I purchased. Would've been useful info to have when I purchased. Floor needs to be level or you hear noises. I have carpet so I needed a 2ft by 3ft piece of wood to place under ac unit to level the unit. The unit is pretty loud when it's on full power. If temp is close to what you set it to reach then ac unit isn't noticeably loud. But if its 85 and you set desired temp at 65 then unit is pretty loud. I have to increase volume of my TV when AC unit is loud. If its 70 and you set to 65 then ac unit is not loud at all. Overall I would recommend product because it works. I was worried product might break in a week but I've come to rely on it more and more. So far it's very dependable. Because of pandemic I've been working at in my bedroom but the heat made me lazy. This unit keeps me cool during my workouts. Everytime it blasts cold air when it's hot I'm like...this was so worth it.

Works solid so far. Had it a few days. Cold air. It arrived all marked up. Not sure what that's about. It's supposed to be new. Maybe it's part of the design. If it is, I don't like it. Looks dirty. Oh well, they don't make things like they used to.

This AC unit was definitely a good buy. I use it to cool down my garage. I live in Texas where temperatures can be 100+. It def works and I would advise anyone to purchase it.

Great portable air conditioner. I bought two of this . A little loud but it cools my living room fast. It’s easy to set up.

I got it delivered on a day my room was 92 degrees. No lie, within twenty minutes it was 75 degrees. I love having this machine. It's heavy duty. It's a pleasant addition to my living area. It would be great for a studio or if you sublet a room. Even for just a room to room hookup. You need the exhaust hose though so mutiple hoses or window installations are recommended for that. Great machine, so far SO GOOD!

The AC does cool the room well so far (168sqft bedroom on 90 degree plus days), but the supposedly new unit I received appears to have been used (dirty window kit and and noticeable physical damage). I feel I should receive a partial refund, as I'd rather not go through the hassle of exchanging it. This seems to be a common problem, so there's no guarantee the next one would be any better anyway.

I have this unit installed for a couple of weeks now. It's pretty quiet compared to my older De'longhi. Ice cold air thats great for a small to regular size bedroom. One concern I have is the amount of condensation which drains out the hose. It seems to be more than my older unit. It would be very convenient if you can run the hose outside the window so you don't have to constantly be worried about the water building up in a bucket. This unit also comes with everything you need to install. Insulation tape and foam included. Having the remote control is a plus! Overall I'm happy with the unit.
