    This unit has been great so far. It’s convenient app interface allows for automation and scheduled timing for when it comes on, within an easy to use app. Its relatively easy to install in the window, however would be nice if the window panel used some sort of clips rather than screws. Other than that no complaints!

    Product is good, but of course after buying. I found it on several other websites for cheaper. Including amazon. Best Buy would not price match, due to their fine print they do not advertise. LG product good, Best Buy will probably be out of business in a few years.

    While I’m not a fan of portable A/Cs this one has changed my mind a bit. So happy I ordered before summer. It’s about as quiet as you’d want to sleep with. WiFi controls are great and shows power usage. Fantastic unit if you have to go with this style of A/C. Highly recommended!

    A little large but powerful enough. I bought this to keep my bedroom cool at night, so that I don't have to cool down the entire downstair floor with the downstairs central AC, while I sleep. It suits the purpose it was bought for.

    Great purchase. Can finally sleep with the AC on and not feel like I'm inside a plane. So far it cools down the room (about 450sqf) in a few minutes.

    It's not as loud as I expected, and definitely cooled my room super quickly. I've only used the unit 3-4 times so far, so I can't speak regarding the longevity, but so far, the AC has performed satisfactorily

    I like the unit. The clips did not work on my metal frame unit. Install is east though with my widow frame in a mid rise building in NYC I needed to McGyver a sistem to raise the base of the window panel. My only negative is while I love the WiFi control you can’t remotely set just dehumidify. It also is just as loud as my 5 year old Lg unit

    Love this AC. Love that I can activate or shut it down via my iPhone using LGThinQ or by my Alexa Echo. Though the box says 450 square ft (not 501) it works fine for my space

    Be Cautious of Crushed Box

    I can't give an honest review of the unit itself because it was broken when it arrived. The box was crushed on the bottom. It's definitely too heavy to pick up so someone dragged it across the ground. When the box was opened, the bottom of the unit was cracked and one of the wheels was completely broken off. We called Best Buy to exchange it. We were told we had to wait 24-48 hours for an email confirmation to bring the unit to the store. In the email we had the option to return by mail. Since the box weighs 80lbs we thought it best to pay the $20 for UPS Ground shipping so we didn't have to lug it back to the store. A week later and we are still waiting on communication from Best Buy and the replacement unit.

    Disappointing and not worth the hype

    I was so excited about this AC because of all the good reviews but sadly it did not work out. First of all, when I received it the box was seriously damaged with a rip at least halfway down the side along with some other holes that were just covered with packaging tape. Trying to overlook this, I took the unit out and proceeded to set it up. It looked a little dirty which I figured was because of the holes in the box, but figured it wouldn't effect its efficiency at all. Sadly, I was wrong. For one, it wasn't as quiet as it was described to be, sometimes even having a high-pitched buzz from the compressor. And second, it barely cooled down the room (maybe only 2-3 degrees) when it was only in the low 80's outside. I'd hate to see what it would be like when it hits the 90s as I'm in LA. The smart aspects of this were nice, however, overall, in terms of cooling it just does not do what I need it to. I either got a defective unit or it just doesn't hold up. Also, in repackaging the unit I realized that the bottom of the box was completely separate and just taped on. It looks like it was repurposed from another box so I think this was definitely a defective unit or a used unit/ something that was resold. I really wanted to like this, especially so I didn't have to go through the trouble of returning, but sadly it was super disappointing and not worth the over $500.
