    I purchased this air conditioner because my apartment doesn't have A/C and our casement window design will make it difficult for a window air unit. It is small and powerful! Small enough to fit almost everywhere and powerful enough to cool the room for an adequate timing.

    This is the second portable AC I’ve set up this year and this one by far was easier, especially the hose connections which snap into place securely. Seems to be cooling down my small bedroom and going into the hall and second bedroom as well. The “follow me” button on the remote seems to be tied with “swing” which opens and closes the vent, only small issue so far.

    Had it for 2 days and its wonderful. Keeps our bedroom nice and cool. Set up is fast and easy. Only thing i dont like about it is only the screen lights up on the remote. Be super nice if the buttons lit up too. Other then that, no complaints at all.

    I picked up the Insignia portable air conditioner from Best Buy during a heat wave, and it made a huge difference right away. Setup was quick and easy—took about 10 minutes to get it running. It cools the room fast and keeps the temperature consistent, even on really hot days. It’s not too loud, and the remote control and digital display make it super convenient to adjust settings. I also like that it has a dehumidifier mode, which helps a lot with that sticky summer air. Best Buy had it in stock and ready for same-day pickup. For the price and performance, this AC unit is a great value. Highly recommend for anyone needing a quick and effective cooling solution!

    It is a little noisy but it is eorth the sound for how it cools down a room. I have it in the living room and i like that i can move it to the guest room if needed at night. Also it is easy to drain when needed and set up.

    I love this product, especially for the summer. It makes the house extra cold, we have it in the master bedroom but it keeps the whole house cooler than usual. It pretty much fits on every window we have installed it on. It comes with a remote and has multiple settings. It is a little loud but I have heard louder ones. I have no had any problems with it.

    After living in my home for 5 years with no AC unit in my room, I say this portable unit is the best. Works well in small places. I keep the room door closed and it takes no more than 10 mins to cool an area down. It’s a bit loud, but I knew that from reading the earlier comments, but I don’t mind the sound. The hose can get hot at times, so I would keep anything flammable away from it. Easy install as well.

    the cooling is great, and the unit is rather small, so easy to fit in small places. i have mine under my desk (open on all ends so its still getting air flow) the problems are killing this whole things. for 1, it arrived in shatters. the window kit was completely destroyed and the pieces scratched up the unit. after buying a new one and waiting weeks for that to arrive to actually use it, the AC smelt absolutely foul. it creates a urine smell, and i have truly no idea why.

    This air conditioner with remote is easy to set up and use. The reason it’s portable is because it has wheels cause it pretty heavy. The best thing is it works, blowing wonderful cool air on a hot day.

    Pros: Its actually good for what it does. Cools the room pretty quickly. Multiple settings with the humidifier/dehumidifier makes it nice. Easy enough clean up for the water generated. Cons: Takes up a bit of floor space near the window running the exhaust from the window to the bottom of the unit. Also, pretty loud when running on full blast, so don’t expect to hear much unless you have the volume up.

    This was perfect to cool off my room at night. It’s a small 9x11 room. I’m sure it would cool a bigger room just fine too. It’s a little noisy, but not enough to keep me awake. Easy to install too.

    Good cooling and fairly quite for a unit that will sit in a room approx 13x14. Placid in the window is pretty easy but I had to duck tape to stay secure. Like the fact that I can take it out and install in a jiffy because it’s used in room that is only for guests staying over

    I’d say it’s not ideal for anything more than a bedroom. It does get very cold though. Pretty noisy but doesn’t bother me because I like the noise in the background while I’m trying to sleep

    Amazing product, I don’t usually do reviews but don’t let this little thing fool you!!, gets your room cool in 10 seconds, instantly once you turn it on you already feel cool air circulating, I don’t know if it’s because the size of my room but great product overall set up is so easy and fast. Save your money with this, it’s portable you could move this all around the house with no hassle as long as there’s a window and outlet you’re all good.

    Cooled my bedroom to 66 degrees

    Purchased yesterday and it cooled my bedroom down a couple of degrees within minutes. This is the 2nd portable AC I bought. The first was 5000 BTU and while it worked as a dehumifier, it never got my room cold. Summer hasn't even hit yet and I was worried it wouldn't stand up to a Louisiana August so I returned it and bought this wonderful, beautiful, COLD AC. It makes noise but not any louder than any other window unit I've had over the years. It does have a weird (annoying) sound that I was worried would keep me awake but it soon faded into the background. My bedroom is noticeably hotter than the rest of my condo and I'm a hot sleeper so this will make summer so much better.
