    This unit works well if pointed toward you, not so great for a small apt. Purchased for an elderly man who lives in a place where window units are not allowed. Wish the exhaust was longer, but is standard for all units on the market.

    Like the feature to have the condensation flow through the machine - no more need for a bucket to collect the condensation.

    A normal window unit was too small, this fit perfectly and was easy to install. A little loud but not too bad.

    I purchased this unit for my bedroom since it’s portable. Initially, it was great. Year two and it’s louder and less efficient in the same room. Ended up replacing with a window unit.

    When I bought the unit the specs on the page stated heat "yes" which has since been changed to "No". I guess I am stuck with this unit even though it is not what I wanted. This is my Last purchase from Best Buy.
