Portable air conditioner

Great AC
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So helpful for cooling my 70+ year old home during the summer time in Southern California. When the temperature hits triple digits, its impossible to comfortably sit in my livingroom but after installing this portable AC i am beyond happy. Its easy to install and i have used it for the past 2 summers and it has been well worth what i paid for it.

Great option.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We picked this up when our main AC died on a Friday night and the AC replacement parts were not available until Modnay. It worked great. Setup was easy. Kept the temp livable for a hot Las Vegas summer day.

Cools very well but runs extremely loud
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive had this unit for a year now and use it to cool my office with many electronics. This in addition to my central air in my home. This unit cools great, i mean it’ll make a room cold within a few minutes. My main issue with this unit is how loud it is when running. I need to take work calls and game with my friends and this unit is always so loud i can barely hear whatever im trying to focus on. I actually didnt realize how loud it is until i tried another unit only $50 more. This unit is about 3-4x as loud as my new one. For nearly $400, id expect something quieter.

Everything I needed
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After spending days reading online reviews for so many different models, I settled on this one and couldn't be happier. It works great, cools great, and doesn't leak! The only thing is that it is rather heavy so getting it up a flight of stairs meant going one step at a time, but otherwise it works perfectly.

It cools a good sized room, has dehumidifier!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This portable AC is convienient and cools great. The installation is just a few things you snap on. It is relatively light but also had wheels for easy sliding between places. The dehumidifier is complicated to use, don't forget to tilt back slightly for draining and it has an extra plug in the drain. Very useful.

Insignia AC
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ac was simple to setup and it cools our living room down fairly quickly (I'd say in about 20 minutes). Our living room is around 180 sq. feet.

Cools really well!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would have given it 5 stars because it cools so well, but I keep having to reset it. It starts to make a beeping sound and just cuts off. It turns back on once I reset it but it does it at least 5 or more times a day. I would exchange it but it's past the 14 days, so I guess I'm stuck with it until I can afford another one.

A/C does what is promised
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit is great for cooling areas that have doors you can close because it won't cool a large open area. For example if your home layout is open and you can see in the dinning room from the living room and can't close any door then this ac may not cool your room unless your home is very well insulated. The ac will bring the hot temperature down in a large open area but it won't actually ever feel cool. The ac is as loud as any other ac. The huge benefit is that its portable so we just move it from room to room. Works for us bc we have a window unit in the large open area so I would suggest using a less expensive window unit and this ac in other rooms. Honestly, if I hadn't paid $316 total with taxes included then I'd have to give it 4 stars. Even though I really love this ac it doesn't seem worth the listed price of $369. Use a BTU room calculator before your purchase. Remember if your home isn't insulated then no ac will really cool your home.

Noisy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cools fast and seems to cover more area than it is rated for. The only down side is this this is horribly loud and the sound seems to change randomly so there is no getting used to it.
