This ac deserves 10 stars, I love it!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.5 stars isn’t enough. I couldn’t have asked for a better machine. I love how the installation was simply clipping the mounts on to the hose and sliding it onto the back of the ac. Same thing with the window kit (a simple clip, and go). This thing was super easy to put together and install. It isn’t too loud. It gets my room ice cold; and the instructions are straight foward. If you’re indecisive about which ac you should buy, go with this one. I’m literally planning to put one of these in every room of my house! A++

The Savior of Summer!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This portable AC saved me and my wife from a dreadfully hot summer a couple years back, 2021 to be specific. Our room only had a sliding glass door that led to a balcony. Meanwhile all the other rooms in the apartment which belonged to the kid’s, had the luxury of containing windows and their own personal units to go in them. With us not having the same prosperity, it left us with the only logical solution left, and that was to go on the search for a portable unit. Finding a great quality product at a very reasonable price was one of the most beneficial decisions I’ve ever made. It would cool down the whole room which was around 15’ x 25’ (if not larger) within minutes, not to mention if we kept our door open it would cool off the hallway as well. I definitely recommend this product if you are in need of a portable AC! My son still uses it to this day, we moved and he took the furnished attic as his room, so you could imagine the possible heat produced from the roof alone. You can’t even conjure up a such thing as heat up there.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed experience. We are delighted to hear that the portable AC made such a significant difference during the hot summer of 2021. It's great to know that it effectively cooled your room and even helped with the hallway. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we are pleased that your son continues to benefit from it in his attic room. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your support.

Works like a champ
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, never buy a GE. Secondly, i was skeptical about this one but it’s great. Noise level isn’t bad and it blows out very cold air. Also the fan stays on when it rewches the temperature which is awesome if you have this in your bedroom while youre sleeping since the sound level wont go from having the noise to having nothing. Glad we got this one.

Cools the room down well but it is very loud
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Saw the reviews for it being loud and thought to myself, I can deal with this especially for the price, well people, it’s super loud. It gets louder the longer you run it. I’m pretty sure the compressor is rubbing on something because when it gets loud, I give it the good ‘ol Fonzie smack and it gets a little better but it comes back. All in all it works and cools. So as long as your into smacking it every so often you should be good with it.

Do not buy this for your bedroom!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This air conditioner is a great unit for your living room or office. This unit definitely cools off your room, and since it's portable, you can fit this into small/odd sized windows. However, if you are looking for a portable air conditioner for your bedroom - do not purchase this item! First, the screen that indicates the temperature/fan speed/mode is quite bright. When you shut off your light the screen throws off a lot of light. I have to cover the top with duct tape. In addition to the brightness of the screen, I think the worst feature is the noise. This unit is on par with other units in terms of loudness, but it seems to be stuck on constant economy mode. So at night your air conditioner will be blasting, then all of a sudden it will be dead quiet, and then it will kick back on very loudly. This change in noise is so drastic, I did not sleep at the first night I used this. Even now, I need to wear ear plugs when it runs at night.

It works buy it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This ac unit works so well in my 850sq ft apartment. We keep it in the living room and it completely cools that room in about half an hour and the rest of the house feels the effects maybe an hour after that. Not too noisy. Easy to put together!

Not Great
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this unit in a flash without thinking and comparing to other brands and I regret buying it.Not satisfied at all that I wanted to return it right away.It's heavy-no wheels compared to other brands so it needs 2 people to move it.It's noisy.My daughter and husband really can't stand the noise.The cooling part is not bad at all though.

Works great
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works great but i hope they have closure in the hose that goes out of window. You would see birds coming in/out and building up a nest.

4 years usage review
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using this air conditioner for the past 4 Summers. My 1 bedroom apartment is big and has an unusual layout, the bedroom is wide open to the living room. The area is big yet this 350sq conditioner is sufficient to cool it. I also never had an issue with it
