    It worked perfect and kept us cool until it just stopped working before it was even a year old.

    Smart App Sucks

    The APP is not designed to be user friendly for installation. Once installed, the smart phone App does not work as it does not turn on and off the AC from your smart phone. The unit itself works good but its being sold as a "Smart AC" in fact it is not. I noted many people having issues with the APP. Customer support was good.

    This ac was working really good at the beginning now it won’t cool and we noticed that the temperature reads at 45 degrees so the ac compressor won’t kick on to cool the hot air it’s been about 1 month since purchase note it’s also super super loud when on

      Hello Uriel - We are very sorry to hear about the problems you have had with your air conditioner. In order to reset the control panel, disconnect power to the unit for about three minutes. If this does not resolve the issue, please take advantage of the warranty found in the owner's manual. Thanks. - JB GE_Appliances

    It all worked great and now the red light in the unit is on and the green light is on... I did the reset and also connected the unit to a different outlet. Nothing. I would expect more from GE. And now out of warranty, I have a 400+ dollar paperweight. No more GE air conditioners for me.

    Good for cooling the room once it's "warmed up". The main problem is the wind up noises that happen during that time.

    Honestly don’t even bother, the first one I bought stopped cooling and then turned off and was never able to turn it back on. You can’t get this model serviced because they discontinued making parts so you have to submit for a rebate. Still haven’t received the funds from that yet and it’s been 3 months. The second one I bought has now started to turn on and off continuously regardless of the temp you set it at and when it’s off nothing you do will turn it on you have to wait for it to turn itself back on. When they work, it works well it is kinda loud but that’s besides the point cause the product is trash.

    Very disappointed in this unit. Cheaply made, extremely loud. Went from a 5000 btu window to this. You would think at 12000 btu’s It would way outperform previous ac unit. Very little difference. A wasted of time and money. Now to pay someone to help me return this monsterous piece of garbage
