    Thermostat doesn’t work properly. Sometimes it cut off at set temperature, other times it doesn’t.

      Thank you for sharing your experience. Room size, sunlight, number of people, and even whether the unit is used in a kitchen can all affect cooling performance, and we suggest reviewing the “Air Conditioner Does Not Cool as it Should” section on page 14 of your Owner’s Manual for helpful tips to get the best results. The Owner’s Manual can be viewed at the bottom of the Features tab on the product page of the Best Buy website. Lauren@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    Horrible Policy to Quickly Wash Their Hands

    This air conditioner is misleading and very small. It is unable to work for the window set up that I personally have but the return window for this large appliance is 2 weeks so now I am stuck with it. The “best” that “Best Buy” can do is to suggest I sell it on Facebook Marketplace which should honestly be illegal to say because why are you promoting another company to mitigate the pushback on a 2 week return policy for a large appliance? They’re saying because the box was opened stores may credit it at their discretion….but if I lug this thing all the way to the store (as I don’t have a car) and they don’t honor it….then what do I do?

      We are sorry to hear this didn't work for your specific window. This model has instructions for a standard double-hung window, and this can be installed without the side curtain panels if needed. Please review page 11 in the manual for details on how this can be installed. Joyce@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

      Consider the temperature of the room when the air conditioner was first turned on. When heat is stored up in walls, furniture, rugs and draperies, it will take longer to cool the room down. Check the outdoor temperature. Operating a room air conditioner if the outdoor temperature is 70°F or below will limit the cooling capacity of the unit. Check the indoor temperature. If the room is already 64°F or below, the thermostat cannot turn on the compressor. If you continue to have concerns, contact Best Buy directly at 1-800-433-5887 regarding any warranty coverage you may have. -Vikki@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

      We appreciate you sharing your experience and would like to provide some guidance. We would suggest reviewing the troubleshooting section in your use and care manual under "Air conditioner does not cool as it should (page 14) that can be found on the website. While this AC Unit has a 1-year limited warranty, we do not service this model. If you are having trouble with your unit cooling after troubleshooting, we recommend giving us a call directly at 866-907-1655 to start a warranty claim.Dianna@GE Appliances GE_Appliances

    After three weeks of ownership the unit started to make a buzzing sound. It sounded like styrofoam came loose. near the fan motor. My in store warranty was for only two weeks. Fortunately, after I purchased a Membership Plus Plan my warranty was extended to 60 days. I then exchanged the product.
