The only thing I don't like about this air conditioner is that the display is not visible unless you're changing a setting. I personally prefer to see what the temperature and modes are set to without having to interact with it. I bought this on sale for $300 so the value for me was very good, but for full price I am not so sure. Compared to the LG unit this one is replacing, I feel like the quality is just a little under my expectations.

Very happy with this product. Remote and app control. Cools a large room with ease. I always wish they would include more/better foam for blocking the window gap, but that applies to all window A/C units.

I love my air conditioner. Especially with the heat wave that weve been experiencing as of late. Extremely easy to program. Love the convenience of the wifi feature. But most importantly, how it keeps the room fresh and cool

When your a/c freezes up, the ice blocks the air flow and stops the air conditioner from cooling the room. To help with this issue, set the mode control to High Fan or High Cool with the temperature setting as high as it can be set. If the issue continues, we recommend you take advantage of the one year warranty by giving us a call at: 1-800-432-2737. -Don@GEAppliances

Works good and I had same one but older unit and it was almost 8 years old but after hurricane ida the filter and cover was lost for while and the coil got dirty while waiting to find someone to remodel my garage apartment. The old unit still blew cold but froze a couple time cause not getting enough air flow but like said this one same model and been blowing cold and have remote but I use the app on my iPhone to control it. I definitely recommend and room is 20x24.

Replacement for failed unit.

I am giving it 3 stars because it was a replacement for a defective older model that i got replaced. I purchased that model in 2023 and it failed in may 2025. I have a different brand(spare) that is quite old (at least 15years) and never had an issue. This unit does cool very well and is very user friendly. I'm not convinced of the longevity. If you are a total member i recommend, if not go another route. Chances are you may be replacing in a few years.

I'm so happy I came in to best buy ,and decided to get my window A.C unit here. My Samsung I bought 4 years ago finally gave out , and did so when it was the peak of summer. I was on a budget and home depot & Lowe's were just to expensive. The more BTU the more they cost. I got this one at Best buy at such a great price and with 12,000 BTU ( this a.c unit works amazing) my room gets so cold. This was the "Best Buy" so far

I have a home that was built in 1910 and it's poorly insulated, so it gets extremely hot in the summer, but this AC works wonders to keep the main floor cool. I love it!
