Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the 450 Sq. Ft. Portable Air Conditioner's cooling power and its ability to cool their entire apartment quickly. They also appreciate its easy setup and portability. However, some customers find the noise level to be a bit loud on the high setting. Additionally, it requires a window to be open in order to use it, which may not be ideal for all users.

    Keeps the room cool

    We purchased this unit to cool a room when a central air system failed, and are very pleased with it. The room it is installed in, a 13’ X 26’ room over the garage closed off from the rest of the house, is comfortable with the temperature holding as it is set - it was well over 100 degrees before the unit was purchased. The central HVAC issue are taking more than two weeks to repair between scheduling and waiting on parts, so this was a valuable asset for us to have. It should be noted that this is the second of these units we purchased this summer, as the same thing happened to our son’s home and we assisted by buying the identical unit for him. In both cases the Honeywell was found to work very well and be reasonably quiet (for a room AC unit), keeping the rooms cool and the humidity low here in the heat of the North Carolina summer. While not the cheapest unit we looked at, this one has worked reliably and cooled the rooms well so that we can consider it a good value and heartily recommend the Honeywell to others.

    Caved in and bought this during the last heatwave. Definitely kept us cool in our master bedroom. We would have bought a “cheaper” unit but we chose this for the sqft coverage and the reviews were good on most sites. It’s definitely not super quiet but it’s manageable. The ducts are pretty solid. Controls are simple to follow.

    Used in a condo as supplemental cooling for a guest who likes it really cold at night. Replaced an older unit that was very difficult to drain dehumidifier water from. New unit cools better, is less noisy, and has no water drainage issues. Window fitting was very simple and easy. Works great,

    made this quick purchase when my AC died. So far so good. It occasionally sounds like a bird is in the inside, but other than that the volume of noise to keep my livingroom cool is acceptable. Also, be sure to have an area to vent the heat out. We didn't do that in the beginning.

      Thank you for your review! We're happy to hear you're satisfied with the performance of our Honeywell Portable Air Conditioner, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. Like any other electrical device, this unit will create some sounds when operating due to the powerful compressor working to cool the space you need it to.

    This device was added to our home during a longish heat streak. While it is designed to keep a room cool, we just wanted to keep the heat down. This is not a quiet device and the room we had it in has tall ceilings, so it struggles to keep the temperature down, but it did help to have the cool air moving around the room. The window adapter was not quite large enough to fit my window, so I had to add an extra bit (about 4") to the end to get it to fully cover the window opening. Overall, I am happy with the purchase.

    Great AC unit. I put this in my bedroom during the heatwave and this helped cool down my whole room. This is a must have for any bedroom looking to cool down during the summer heat. Remote is great and convenient. You can control everything from your bed.

    The upstairs master bedroom has skylights and a wall of windows and does not cool down at all with central air on hot days. This works great and keeps the room nice and cool. It is loud though, like a loud stove exhaust fan. Some might like the noise, but not for everyone.

    After fighting the heat with fans and buckets of ice for summers at a time, I finally decided to get a portable AC unit. This product has to be one of the best investments I've ever made. Cools my entire bedroom or living room, considering it's portable. It glides easily over my hardwood floors and leaves no marks. Very easy set up. I'm in love.

    Cools a sailboat down fast!

    I installed this portable air conditioner on a 33 foot sailboat (so interior space of about 250 square feet). Vented it out a porthole, and it does a terrific job in the heat and humidity of this area. The vent hose/kit is well made, but at only 48 inch length I barely had enuf to reach the port. Shaped a piece of Lexan to customize the fit of the port. The unit works incredibly well and cools the interior of the boat down fast—-we are now able to get a comfortable and good night’s sleep. We probably bought too many BTU’s, but wanted to be sure the unit would cycle on and off normally instead of running constantly.

    I was lucky to find this air conditioner. I needed one last second to help beat the heat this summer, and I feel like I took home a real winner. It's low maintenance, was a fairly reasonable price for the quality, and turns my small apartment into an ice box!

      We are sorry to hear about your experience with this portable air conditioner. Our units make use of dual motor technology which means lower levels of sound than most other units in the market. These units do create some sound when operating due to the powerful compressor starting up and working towards making the air colder, and that sound can be very subjective. However, if you feel it is much more than this, please feel free to call us at 1-800-474-2147 (Monday - Friday between 8:30 am - 5:30 pm) or send us a note at usinfo @jmatek.com with the reference code number BBC0822. We look forward to making this right for you. Thank You ! JMATEK

    This was a gift to a family member. We have now used it for two summers. My family member has been very happy with it. Easier to move around then the old window air conditioner they used. Love having a remote to operate it.

    No, seriously, it's cool...cold. You could set a drink in front of it and you wouldn't need ice cubes. It does what it's supposed to do and it does it well. All of these portable a/c units are loud, but this one's a little quieter than some of the older ones I have. The only con is that the hose is a bit shorter than my other portable a/c units. Some of those I can move about 3-feet from the window, but this one needs to be right next to it. I would definitely recommend. (I only gave "value" 3 out of 5, because I feel all a/c units are way overpriced...

    I purchased this AC unit to cool down my living room, dining rm plus the kitchen and boy does it do its job. I was skeptical at first but I am so happy that I bought it. From the easy set up to the installation in the window everything went smoothly. So happy and everyone is amazed when they come over that it cools the way it does.
