    Hi, I just got my A.C. operational on May 27th. It I am a Senior citizen and had to wait for someone to put it together for me. So I have only used it for two nights in my bedroom.. I am Very happy with the cooling effects and just hope it will be a reliable product that will last me awhile. Thank you Best Buy for a great price.

    Gets job done but not way it should

    So I have a small bedroom so I decided to purchase the insignia AC for the 250 square-foot room. For the most part it gets the job done and calls the room. However, I have a temperature gauge that sits on my desk and it always says that it’s a 5° difference in comparison to what the AC is set on. In other words, I can have the AC set on 62 or 63 in my room it’s only 68. The machine satisfies itself before I think it should. I’m not sure why it does that. I am someone who likes it very cold so it does not quite cool to the temperature that I need. All the features it has though are good. Only other thing is it’s loud and makes it hard to watch TV at the same time that it’s on.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Would not have survived a 100 degree summer without this. Small rooms are freezing and larger rooms are cool.

    I can not believe my luck. Following the hottest day of the year every store sold out of portable a/c units. Luckily someone returned one as I was getting the sad news that none were available in store. Gotta love those open box discounts. Got a great a/c and an even better price.

    Works fine. Swinging lid is nice. 300 square feet might be a bit optimistic, the room it’s in is 150 and with the door closed it can get it cool but runs pretty heavy to do so.

    This was a great investment for the art studio it works so well in an area where there are no windows, and we pipe the vent out. It also dehumidifiers the area too.

    This unit takes the edge off my overly hot upstairs bedroom. I think it probably saves me from turning down my whole house ac because I can just get my bedroom cool quickly.

    Recently bought this AC to keep my living room cooled. This AC keeps my living room nice and fresh, all day long and it’s only 6,000BTU. My living room is never freezing cold but cool and liveable. The wheels sure make moving my AC around much easier. So far I have not had any issues

    Wakes everyone up cycling on and off with the loud fan. But, cools nicely does the job. I'd insulate the window opening vent, it's thin plastic and let's heat in. Not sure how bugs stay out of the tube. For the money, it does the job.

    This is a great external AC to cool off a small room. Easy to use and set up. A little on the 'loud" side but the cool air it delivers is a trade off for the comfort of being in a cooler room.

    It offers multiple modes: cooling, fan, and dehumidifier. The fan has three speed settings, but I noticed minimal difference between them. I haven’t extensively used the dehumidifier or sleep mode yet.

    This portable air conditioner was not expensive, which made me skeptical at first. It is quiet and gets COLD.
