Good Portable AC
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Insignia portable AC is more powerful than the last similar insignia AC that I bought. The window vent kit is also sleeker, sturdier & easier to use. I just hope this Insignia doesn't stop working after 3yrs like my last one. Extra window vent kit panels & pins for sliding glass doors should be included or at least sold so that you could easily buy them. I have to try & find the extra panels & pins that fit perfectly with the window vent kit. So far I've been unsuccessful.

My New Summer Love.

It was so easy to manage installation, and the workmen were pleasant and cordile during delievery and setup. They showed me a few things about handling the machine and it was very simple actually. I purchased the Insignia machine at just the right time and the perfect price. Thank you. Pat Hardigree

Definitely makes one room cool quickly.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When it said portable air conditioner, I was misled into thinking I could use the air conditioner in various room without a lot of trouble. The air conditioner works great but it is very loud.

Does the job well
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like that it can be moved around but I don't like that I have to empty it. I live on the 3rd floor and thankfully I have a second shower that is stand up. So, that makes it a little easier.

LIFESAVER!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, this portable unit has been a lifesaver! Louisiana heat is terrible when the central unit is out in an older home! If anything changes, I’ll edit to specify what it is.

A good airconditioner with a minor flaw
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The air conditioner works pretty well. I only have one complaint. The water drain is located very low on the machine. Difficult if you have carpeting. Other than that, it is quite useful.

Decent AC
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this brand again because my last portable AC was Insignia and it was AMAZING! Unfortunately I have been very disappointed with my new AC as it does not cool as expected. Room size is well below 350sqft so no excuses as to why the room isn’t cooled appropriately. Also you have set continuous every time you turn the AC on, the unit does not hold this setting as it does the other settings.

Posted .Thank you for your honest review, BestBuyfan21. We’re sorry the new portable AC didn’t meet the performance you expected, especially after a great experience with your previous unit. Your feedback is valuable as we work to improve consistency. Tine | Insignia Support
