The unit is definitely suitable for the specifications it’s rated for. The installation was straightforward and the packaging it came in kept it in perfect condition.

Received the unit in just 2 days because the shipping warehouse was fairly local to Orange County Calif. Unfortunately, after hauling it upstairs, and removing the packing tape, I discovered that the front panel had been damaged. I had already installed the window panel, which was fairly easy. I tried it out that night and discovered that the blower made a low howling noise that awoke me when it cycled on and off. I did not request a replacement and just returned the unit for credit. I don't believe the noise was created by the shipping damage.

It seems to work well. Has double hose which is essential if you don't want to exhaust your already cooled air outside.

Very nice AC unit. Havent had to drain the unit yet due to the dual-hose configuration which cycles moisture out the exhaust hose.

Turned it on for the first time and there was a rattle coming from main Ac fan, this unit is not easy to pull apart especially the main ac circulator fan and needed to to be completely taken apart to pull the plastic casing around the fan. There I found a thumb sized plastic scrap in side the cage fan and because of very poor engineering, I would never buy another anything from this company ever never so disappointed with their quality assurance the units shipped would be okay

Works really well for the most part. Wish it had more directional air flow but does it job. Only down side is we’re on our second in 5 years

Not happy with exhaust pipes they should be attachable so you can extend them

I expected greater cooling capacity after reading all the positive reviews. A little disappointed with how it's working. It kind of does the job yet I expected more.

I purchased a product much that was meant for a higher sqft than I actually have, but it doesn't even touch this tough Texas heat. I don't recommend.
