    We bought this GE because we had a workaholic similar unit for years. This was a disappointment. Cheaply made, cannot set the blades for a comfortable stream. It is noisy and finicky. We had to call GE the first day we had it. Seems the condenser didn't like the Eco setting with low setting. We struggled to get it settled in the window, and there it will stay. Not bad to look at, but it was a total turn off. Spent too much time acclimating it to our window. Will bear with it a year or two, hopefully it will run a few years, but will not looking at GE models next time.

    Purchased this product and immediately regretted it. The filter light kept coming on within the first week, after ignoring it for about two weeks I removed the filter and instantly regretted it. The filter snapped and now I’m past my return/exchange period and the manufacturer no longer makes the filter. Save yourself, get a different product!!!

    Bad Filter Design

    Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This AC worked normally for about a month, and still technically does work, but something is very wrong with the filter's design. I removed the filter for cleaning when the light turned on. When I tried to reinsert the clean, dry filter, it would not go in smoothly. As I slid it out, the bottom right corner of the filter's frame broke. In lower right corner of the space where the filter should fit, there is a piece of white plastic approx. 2" long and some wires. I cannot manipulate the filter either in front of or behind that piece of plastic and I cannot move the piece of plastic up, down, or backwards. I have no idea how the filter was able to fit in that space before. I checked the manual, but it provides no guidance on this issue. It only states that the filter should be reinserted after cleaning. It seems like this AC is designed to break the first time the user tries to clean the filter.

    I use it for an extremely small bedroom I use for sleeping only. It houses a full size bed, tv stand and tv. It’s a tiny room. You can only use the remote to operate it outside of turning it on or off. It’s extremely loud, even when using “on” option, it makes very loud noises. I also noticed after I purchasing it, what insulates it, is styrofoam. :-(

    It’s worth the price but not very powerful and vents on far right no air flow. Cannot flow air up or down but can move left to right in middle.

      We are glad to hear this is working well for you. A window air conditioner is intended to cool only 1 room. It is critical that the capacity of a room air conditioner be the right size for the room being cooled. If you have any questions on sizing, please refer to our GE Appliances website for complete details. Thank you! Joyce@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    This is the loudest air conditioner that I ever owned. It has a design flaw that emits a loud and annoying rattle during operation. I have much older Frigidaire units that are both quiet & powerful. I will not be purchasing anther GE ac in the future.

      We are sorry to hear you had difficulty removing your filter. It is located behind the front grille. To remove the filter, you should slide it from the left side of the unit. Please review page 8 in your manual. This can be found on Best Buys site and on our GE Appliances site. If you need assistance with getting a new filter, please reach out to GE Parts by calling 1-877-959-8688 between 8:00-8:00 EST. GE_Appliances

    It makes a loud grinding noise at times. If it wasn't such a hassle to take it out of the window, we would have brought it back.

      There are normal operating sounds that you will hear but grinding doesn't sound normal. We recommend reviewing page 15 in your manual and if you feel there is an issue and are sure the unit is installed properly, please take advantage of your warranty. This can be found on page 17 in your manual. Thank you! Joyce@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

      We are sorry to hear you aren't completely happy with your new air conditioner. It is normal to hear pinging noise caused by water being picked up and thrown against the condenser on rainy days or when the humidity is high. This design feature helps remove moisture and improve efficiency. We recommend checking to ensure the rubber drain plug is properly inserted. This plug may be removed during operation to minimize water in the back of the unit; however, removing it will lower the efficiency of your unit. Please review page 15 in the manual for more information. Thank you! Joyce@GEAppliances GE_Appliances
