Bad customer service
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The price for this product was listed lower at other retailers for a while and best buy refused to price match it until it was out of stock at those retailers. Best buy then stated that it ws out of stock and wouldn’t be matched. Horrible customer service

- Pros mentioned:Cooling performance, Remote control, Size
Great for a small room
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great A/C for cooling a small room. I installed it in a room that is around 150 sq/ft and it can drop the temperature from 80 degrees to 70 and the humidity from 65% to 40% in around 20 minutes. It is basically only for a small room but that is what they claim it is for anyway. Controls are nice and basic for what you need. It has a filter clean reminder. The filter pulls out from the side instead of pulling down on the front which I really like. The remote controls all of the functions of the A/C. The lettering on the remote is nearly impossible to see what the room is dark, unlike other remotes I have that you can see. It is somewhat loud with some vibration. I wish it was slightly quieter but it is not obnoxious.
