    This is a great A/C! Cools our room in no time. Being able to turn it on through the app when we are on our way back home is amazing. It is not super quiet, also not very noisy, but it is definitely quieter that the one we had. And its a great value.

    LG LW1017ERSM vs LG LW1017ERSM1 AC

    I tried to buy the LG LW1017ERSM 10k btu slide in chassis AC as listed on their web site. BB sent me the wrong AC, they sent model LW1017ERSM1 which is NOT slide-in chassis (and was a lower price). Sent back with notice, they sent the wrong one again. They were quick to pickup both wrong units and processed payment back.

      Hi, Alan. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG Air Conditioner (LW1017ERSM) model. We appreciate your attention to detail and understand how important it is to receive the correct model, especially when it comes to chassis compatibility.

      This model is designed as a slide-in chassis model, ideal for through-the-wall installations using existing sleeves. The LW1017ERSM1, while similar in name, is a window-mounted unit and not compatible with wall sleeves. We recommend confirming the model number directly on the https://www.lg.com/us/support to ensure you're selecting the correct version for your setup.

      If you'd like us to assist further or help verify availability, feel free to email us at [email protected]. We’re here to help. ^Juvy LG

    Unfortunately after the AC was installed, we turn it on just to try it and it work. That evening when we wanted to leave it on, it did not power on anymore.

    I bought this to go in a bedroom to supplement the AC system because I like my room cold when I sleep. Also, for a little white noise as well.. The unit doesn't seem to cool as well as the old unit that died but I could maybe get used to that. The reason for 1 star is, when you turn the unit off, it reverts back to a default setting of economy (which cycles the unit on and off throughout the night) and low fan speed. So every single time I turn it on at night I have to reset the unit to cool (run continuously) and a fan speed of high. For me, that is aggravating to have to do every single day. I understand it is for energy efficiency but it should my choice to save energy or not. If I had not already installed the unit when I found this out, I would return it.

    If you want a puddle of water on the floor then this AC is for you! Less than a year since I bought this AC, it started to leak water flooding my room. (many people complain about it)! They refuse to service the unit and have given me runaround for months - outrageous! Do yourself a favour and stay away from the LG products!

    I'm in love with my new AC. Love the app to control it. Didn't set it with Alexa yet. I don't see the point of it anyways. The app is very handy. My room gets cool in no time, Let's see what happens when the summer comes. Installation was quick'n-easy. It is a bit noisy compared with my last AC unit, but it's ok.

    Received A/C unit through delivery to my door. I was not able to install it for a coupon weeks. When I finally installed it , it worked for a day. The next day I powered it on and it blew something internally then shut off and smelled hot. It won’t power back on. The return policy expired 2 weeks after my purchase and a couple days before I installed it. Best Buy will not exchange or return it.

    I give this two stars as I have to have this set at 67 and the highest fan speed it should be freezing in living which is not a large room and it's just cool... also the clean filter came and when I pulled out to clean, it was not even dirty I brushed it clean with cloth and ran under water as instructed...but the clean filter light still stayed on...I needed to reset AC.

    I bought this for a rental property. It uses about 25% less power than same BTU capacity units used just a few years ago. The disassembly/assembly assembly of the unit as per the instructions was a pain. This unit could have been built much simpler and it would have been fine. I have not tried it with the app for my phone. Overall, it works well, uses less power but be ready for some disassembly/re-assembly with this unit; it helps to have a second person to provide assistance.
