Customers are saying

Customers love the 3-in-1 Portable Room Air Conditioner's cooling capabilities and ease of use, frequently praising its quiet operation and compact size. However, some customers found the remote control unreliable and the window installation kit challenging to use with their windows. A few also noted the unit's weight and concerns about the BTU rating.

    I have been able to use this A/C for a few days. And man it comes in clutch when you need it! The unboxing wasn’t too bad. It does have some weight to it but once it’s out of the box it’s on wheels so moving to each location isn’t too bad. Setting it up it pretty easy I didn’t have any issues. I do wish the tubing was a little longer it has great feel and durability but it does get stiff and when trying to get to a higher window makes it a little annoying but that’s minor. There are a few settings you can use to either purify, cool, and dehumidify. It does purify the are at the same time which it a plus to do both. The cooling is what I mainly use. It cools very well. I used it in my master bedroom and it cooled within 30-45 minutes. You can also put it on a timer so you don’t accidentally leave it running. I put in on when I went to bed and it stopped exactly after the timer elapsed. The remote is good but you have to be in line of sight or else it won’t take the changes. It’ll show on the remote but you need to sync up by pressing a button while pointing at it if you do it without the device beeping. The vent fan does oscillate to allow for a spreading of the air up and down. One gripe I have but it may be minor because it’s my first AC unit is that it is pretty loud when it gets going. So that may be a factor. But overall it has a great look, very easy to set up and use. I would definitely recommend it.

    Best Buy is false advertising

    This is the 2nd one we purchased because the 1st one worked very well, but it was used and missing parts, so we returned it. It was sold as open box, which was supposed to be new & have all parts. We bought this 2nd one since the 1st was a good AC, but received an open box instead of a "new" one. Best Buy would not give us the open box discount so we returned it. Bestbuy gets a zero review for sending us used ACs even though we paid for new ones, Best Buy is false advertising.

    I’m not sure why this does not cool my small living room kitchen combo. It does not make sense there are no gaps in set up and I even have a fan pushing the air into the room from the table near it.

    This is a great little air conditioner. My primary goal for this AC is to be used mostly during hurricane season with my generator. I also plan on using it in my den because it gets pretty warm. Out of the box, it is very nice. Looks great. Solid build. This unit is pretty heavy. It contains everything needed to set up. The unit comes with the piece needed for the window, it fits well. It was easy to set up. It only took a few minutes to set up. Once set up, the unit runs smoothly. It’s not too loud. I am enjoying it. It keeps the room cool and comfortable. I added a heavy duty plug, to better support the unit, so that it wouldn’t cause power surge issues. I haven’t tried it with my generator yet, but according to all the specs it should work. I have no complaints with this AC unit. I’ve been trying it on different settings to test it further. So far so good. I’m very happy with the overall performance. I can move it around a little, but not much with the tubing. The color looks good in the room and doesn’t clash with the rest of the furniture.

    Missing the window kit, part #3 on checklist. Contacted BB via chat and phone, and both told me only option was to return for refund as no stores in my area carry this model. This was Geek Squad certified like new, that says a lot about BB not being trustworthy.

    Loved the unit while it worked. I used it for maybe 30-50 nights during the last summer in July through September. Then it stopped cooling. Unit was only used for 6-8 hours per night. Would not recommend.

    False advertisement, the webpage says it cools a 450 living space, the box says 250. Which seems to be correct cause it doesn’t cool a room at all. Trying to return it not for us. Don’t buy it based on the description
