This a/c works great. Bought it cause it was on sale and affordable but it turned out to be a great unit. I use it in my apartment bedroom and it keeps it’s like an ice box if I leave it on all night. Noise wise it just sounds like an a/c running so it’s not that loud really. It is a bulky unit that takes up a lot of space and doesn’t have all the bells and whistles but for the money it does what it’s suppose to and keep my room cold.

It cools well enough and has some decent features, but it's much louder than my fridgedares. Window attachment, roller wheels and swivel feature all work well. Not sure it will last long either.

This product is terrific in cooling capacity - FAST! the fan and dry features also are handy. Mine is an open box purchase, so while this particular unit has 'sound variation' (sometimes its louder than others) I am still thrilled with it. Not the quietest product on the market I'm sure, but i have it bedroom so the "white noise" has become an essential mainstay (BUT it did take me a week or so to adjust myself to).

This is our second Insignia portable AC. We chose a portable because window AC's always look mucky inside after one season and I worry about mold. They cool a room off quickly and of course, do not block a window view. They do make a lot of noise but that does not bother us. We have one in the bedroom and one in an upstairs room; will likely purchase another for the parlor.

I was able to stay nice and cool on hot, humid summer nights in South Texas without hurting my wallet. I'd say it's great for going to sleep because it keeps you cool/cold, and adds some white noise to the room. I'd also say it's not great to have by you watching a quiet movie, but sports and Michael Bay movies will be just fine.

I have been impressed with this unit so far. It quickly cools my large bedroom and the coolness spills out into the hallway. It's neat how when you turn it on the fan blades open up. It's not quiet but it's a portable a/c unit.. I bought it to make my room cool. It has 1 hose that goes to the window and the plastic pieces that come with it are fairly long. Almost long enough to fit my tall oversized window. Set up was really easy. I like having a remote so I can set a timer or turn it off without going over to the unit. Overall I'm happy with this purchase, and the price is a good, a lot less expensive than other models. I recommend this one.

Bought this a.c. To cool my living room and kitchen of my apartment. It does the job but it is noisy. I have to turn my t.v. Up louder but great alternative if you can’t fit an a.c. In your window

The pros: great price for the specs. I couldn't find anything better - not only for the power but this unit also can be used as a dehumidifier. The unit worked well and pumped out cold air at a good pace. The area immediately around the unit was a little warmer than the surrounding air. Biggest complaint was that the window slider to fit in the window for the hot air release didn't fit my standard window. I had to use a hacksaw to cut it down to the proper size and have the slots fit.

We bought this for our small apartment to just help keep it a little cooler. The day after we had it running it was beyond cool. The vent hose is a little cheap and falls out the locking ring but not a deal breaker. Also, after a few days of running it water spitting out the side of the unit. Not alot but a small puddle. After a few minutes though it stopped. All and all it is a great air conditioner. Very happy with this purchase. Only giving 4 stars for the minor problems.

This Insignia AC rocks. It really kicks out the cooling BTU’s. It has low to average fan noise. Depending on humidity, excess water can accumulate in the internal reservoir and may require draining if the exhaust cannot evaporate it fast enough out the window. Haven’t had to drain it yet. Looks good and on castors for easy moving.

I was debating which AC unit to get. I did research on several units looking for something around $300 that would be dependable. So far this works great. It's actually slightly quieter than my last unit which was getting old so this is an upgrade. Keeps my studio apartment at a great temp so far.

Great packaging for simple unpacking. Easy to move from one room to another and cools immediately. I replaced a window unit with the product and could not be more pleased. It opens up the window view which is a big plus.

We just purchased a home and as we did a final walk through learned that the listing was incorrect and central air was not installed. As a first time home owner, the cost of adding central air on Day 1 wasn't feasible so we opted for a portable unit and have been surprised with it's performance. From my experience, the unit works more efficiently and most effective when it's on a lower to medium speed setting, we only use "HIGH" for extreme cases when it's 95+ outside, just a preference but this was this particular unit was on sale for a great price which is why we decided it was best for us.

Got this when my AC went out...kept my bedroom cool and didn't cost much to run. Very very easy setup! A little loud but didn't care since I was cool! Now I keep it in my closet in case I need it again. Doesn't take up much space....highly recommend for the price!

The unit is quite large, aesthetically pleasing and not very loud. Like most portables it has the very outdated, wire spiral, plastic covered, collapsible hose. There is a collection reservoir that needs to be drained regularly or a tube connected and run out the window for automatic drain. It has many features, however automatic temp control is not one of them, only a timer. It will continue to run even if it hits the desired temp. This portable AC unit has been discontinued from the manufacturer.

If you are looking for a portable A/C this unit does the work for a great price. I have it in our living room which is one massive room with our kitchen and dining room and it works great. The fan is a little loud but since we are used to running fans its no big deal for us. The exhaust tube does get hot so plan on keeping it as close to the window as possible. Also since it is a portable unit and it exhausts air you should plan on having a window cracked in the same room to allow outside air back in the room.

My girlfriend has a gym set up in one of the bedrooms at home with out air conditioning. This unit works great for her, now she can she can roll it outta of the closet and into the bedroom gym and work out comfortably on those warm and hot summer days.

This unit cools a small room well but is louder than I would like. As long as you don’t mind the noise it’s a decent air conditioning unit.

Works pretty great, cools down my apartment quickly and stays cool for a good amount of time. Super easy and convenient to move around.

This blows colder air than the last A/C unit I had. I gave it 4 stars because the humming is a little loud and it's kind of bulky.
