    Great Portable Air Conditioner

    I use this portable air conditioner for the room that is close about 450 sq ft and it is able to cool the room from 90 F to 78 F in two hours. I have to use the high fan setting and it produces loud noise. After two hours, I change the fan setting to low and the noise level is ok. I consider this unit an excellent air conditioner since it is able to cool the medium room temperature down. I was going to buy a bigger unit with 12,000 BTU, but that thing will be too heavy to lift up to the second floor so this smaller unit is not heavy to lift up or move around. For me, it was not very easy to set up the air duct (took about 30 minutes), but once I figured out the right postion and set it up, it is good.

    It doesn't blow in all directions, it would be better with directional venting, but it gets cold quicker, and I love the timer functionality.

    This was simple to set up and begin using. It was quick to take the hot edge off our upstairs bedroom, which gets hot during warmer days in NC. When we use central air, the downstairs is icy while upstairs is still stuffy. Hopefully this unit will help us cool the upstairs without having an arctic first floor.

    Easy to assemble, have not had to drain after using it for 2-3 weeks. Just the bottom drain button is to low, but it cools the room and has different fan speeds.. To just use the fan, you have to disconnect the hose, but it beats a window air contioner.

    Cools a small to medium-ish sized room well. Just don't expect it to it to be able to cool a large room though. The remote is real handy. The window vent accessories are good quality (i.e. plastic is not flimsy). Very happy with my purchase.

    This was easy to install in my window -- that was my biggest concern, I did not want to have to do any real handy man work to get this installed -- the supplied kit was easy to use and get in place in my window -- I have this in my sons room as despite central air - during some days the sun beats on his room and makes it much hotter than other areas of the house, running this AC unit when the temp gets to high cools the room off quickly, as well as some of the rest of the upstairs, in a matter of minutes - and keeps my central air from running non stop freezing the rest of the house trying to keep his room cool. Would buy again!

    Cool Unit (pun intended)

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This unit does the job well. Don't expect it to cool the entire house (my first floor is about 1600 sq. ft.) but it does a fine job in a room where the sun beats down in the summer months. Room is about 350 sq. ft. and cool air trickles down a bit more beyond that. Extra features are a plus (timer, remote, cool, fan only, temp, etc.) Only con is that you still have to have a place for the water to drain. Either get a bucket that you have to empty out or have it drain elsewhere. Other than that unit is great!

    I was using this to cool a medium sized bedroom and honestly is kind of struggled. I thought 800 BTU would be more than enough but it only cooled about half the room and I would have to turn it at a weird angle because the air came out on one side only instead of straight forward. It is also loud.

    The unit does cool the room but the exhaust hose does not fit properly into the unit, I have to use duct tape to secure the hose which I constantly have to change.

    I purchased the AC unit for my bedroom. The unit itself was a great size for my bedroom but it was a little loud and it really didn't cool the room as I expected it to.

    Acceptable For a Smaller Room

    I purchased this Air Conditioner 4 years ago and I use it every summer during the very hot months. If used in a smaller room it works very well and quickly, to cool down the room. I use it in a small bedroom but I do not think it would be very efficient in a larger room like a living room. But overall, for the convenience and size and efficiency, this is a good product that will "save" you during the hot weather.

    I love it. It is simple to use as there are fewer bells and whistles than others units. I have used it daily in florida for 2 months without a hiccup. Got it on sale, wish i would have bought 2. Only. con is lack of color options.

    Okay AC, does the job

    Cools down my small bedroom quicker than I expected. Is a little loud & have to turn up TV. Don't like the fact that the "blades" do not adjust side to side, only up & down - so I have to completely turn the AC in the direction I want the air to go. Hose is 4', but not too long, so needed to rearrange my bedroom furniture. However, keeps me cool at night (I work during the day). I leave it off while I am at work & turn it on when I get home. Takes like 1 hr to cool down the room.

    I needed an air conditioner in my utility room, but the window was too narrow for a regular AC. I read reviews on vertical ACs and this one seem to get the best reviews. I was hesitant to buy a brand I had never heard of, but have really been pleased with this unit. It does a great job.

    Works very well. Minor problem - the weight of the exhaust hose weighed on the window panel, so I just supported it.
