Customer Ratings & Reviews

The reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because its LOUD with which ever mode you use. It’s twice as loud as a window unit. It’s not “really” portable. You can’t just unplug it and take to from room to room without having to take out the entire window venting tube system and redo it again. It cools nice but I have a small room so I’m not sure about bigger rooms.

Great AC. Good power and cools quickly. Only downside can be noisey

This unit works so well for my entire upstairs. Upstairs gets hotter than the rest of the house so this keeps it cool. I didn’t see a large increase in my electric bill. Easy to install.

I don't normally go out of my way to write these things but I just had to after plugging this thing up and witnessing immediately how effective this little unit is. THIS IS A BEAST. For some context, my game room specifically where I keep my consoles and PC has no immediate access to any A/C vents, so I would have to settle for putting a fan in the room and propping the door so cooler air from the rest of the house would flow in. This bad boy erased that issue. Within literally a few minutes my room was cooling down and I could comfortably relax and chill without having to prop the door open and turn on a fan. This is definitely one of the best practical purchases I have made with Best Buy.

Love my unit. It keeps my room very cool. It is a little noisy so I have to get use to that. But about as noisy as a regular window unit.

Works wonders in a small space. Definitely cools the area off when on the cool setting. The hose wasn’t quite long enough for me, due to our window being very high.

It works as well as a window AC with the added bonus of being somewhat mobile. I was disappointed at the limited mobility due to the length of the hose. I was hoping to be able to move it between two rooms and can’t because the hose is too short. This is ultimately my fault for not reading the description carefully, which I suggest others do.

Not loud, gets cold really fast, easy to install. Well somewhat just when applying the window slides you will need someone to hold, but other then that I love it. Ac has fan that opens and closes.

Purchased to cool my bedroom which is approx 150 sq ft. Cools the room quickly but is a bit loud.

Easy to use love it cold for this summer much need

Just right for what I needed. It does cool down the room substantially however the room is small. Very easy to assemble and put on the window. Definitely worth it

I live on the third floor, thank Best Buy for delivering upstairs because it is heavy! However will the major heat wave it has help cool half my apartment due to the apartment design. If I had an open concept I would only need this one but my apartment is closed of so it helps cool my too largest room and it is such a blessing.

I am very pleased with my purchase of this air conditioner. It was easy to install and it works as u would expect it. I read some reviews that claimed that it was too loud, but it is fine with me. Helps me sleep better.

Works great even in really hot conditions! It’s kind of loud but I can deal with it

As others have stated, it is a bit noisy but I have gotten used to it already. I live in a one bedroom apartment and close all windows before turning on the AC and it does cool down the apartment.

Definitely came in handy this summer. Will work for medium sized living room. This item will not cook your entire house but only a select room. It’s easy to install and creates a cool environment in no time. Overall satisfied!

great product for a small room. Its not super loud but it does drown out noise just like a fan would.

Our window ACs would struggle in the heat of the afternoon, but the Insignia portable AC unit, situated indoors, functions just fine. Easy to install and run.

Very easy to install. A little bit heavy for transportation. Too loud for night use.

We bought this unit to cool a 300sq ft. Bedroom. It is a rather noisy unit, just about as loud as a window unit which is what we wanted to avoid. Installation was fairly simple with the most difficulty coming from installing the foam, and the security bracket. Defective - we set up this unit according to the instructions. After letting it run for two nights while remaining off during the day, it did cool the room, but at a price. After moving the unit aside we noticed that it had drained enough water to soak our original hardwood floors causing them to swell and ruin. We checked the instructions about the water building up and no indication was given that it needed any additional setup to keep water from spilling into the floor. We set the AC on a large baking sheet and ran it for an hour and it pooled with approx. 6oz of water. There was supposed to be an alarm that should sound if the reservoir filled up to capacity after using the dehumidifier but we were using the “cool” feather, and the alarm never sounded. Instead water just leaked and poured from the base of the unit around the wheels and any holes on the bottom. We now are going to have to either sand and refinish our hardwood floors, or carpet the bedroom to cover the ruined spot. Immediately returned and bought the 300Sq. ft. GE unit. Same price, smaller/lighter, quieter, and seems to cool better.
