ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC PRODUCT & PRICE
By Diana on Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2020
Edited to add: TAKE THE 15MINS TO *READ* THE INSTRUCTION BOOKLET. I NOTICE TOO MANY COMPLAINTS THAT ARE A VERY CLEAR OVERSIGHT & CAN BE RESOLVED BY THE SIMPLE SETTING(S). ****TIPS FOR TEMP**** Yes. So I've learned that it runs MUCH COLDER, LONGER when the filter is cleaned once a week. I literally spray it off (out) with my kitchen sink hose and it's quick and easy. Next, use a swifter duster and remove any buildup from the lower part vent exterior. The first time I did it I was in shock at the big piece of dust that slid off... that alone reduced the temp at least by 10° immediately. Next, on the very bottom in the back there is a screw off nozzle. Then pull out the rubber insert WITH A DRAIN PAN UNDERNEATH, this is the condensation that must be drained every once in awhile. I do mine every few weeks, its minimal and quick. Reinsert that rubber fitting and screw back on the round plastic cover so it's sealed when done. While I'm at it, I always run the dehumidifier afterwards with the hose it came with into a small few gal Rubbermaid bin. I set a timer because it's actually overflowed when I forgot to dump it and left it running. I will run/drain the dehumidifier for at least 5mins during all of this maintenance and while in cycle I'll switch it to cool and the water rushes out (fully draining, quick) this seems to reduce the temp drastically again for another several weeks without reduction. Make sure you carefully remove that hose, reinsert the rubber fitting and screw back on that cap. Oh and the dehumidifier is the one halfway up on the back. The directions tell you all of this but I had to read it a few times to fully understand since I'd never had one before. Also if the display ever reads a code, there's a reason and it tells you in the manual. That's how I learned about the drain at the very bottom. Hope this helps you and others. Happy to help! Original Review... I'm very please with this portable air conditioner. I was able to set it up and getting running very easily, alone. It's been running for about 15mins and my large room has already dropped from 91° to 74° it's amazing and I highly recommend this unit after hours of Amazon research and this final decision. As far as the noise, WHAT NOISE? Its an air conditioner and I hear the fan gently blowing nice cold air... if youre looking for silent, good luck. This is the quietest I've ever heard and will sleep peacefully without question. BUY IT, YOU WON'T REGRET IT.

***** ALERT ALERT ****
By Daniel C. on Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2021
This is my FIRST review, I never write reviews but this time it is TOO much of a "crap" and I needed to tell you. The way this type of air conditioning has been design is WRONG. A huge percentage of the excess heat produce by the compressor is sent back into the room. As you probably know, an air conditioning produce heat on one side and cool air on the other side. We are use to see a common air conditioning (the compressor) installed outside so the heat produce by the compressor stays outside and inside the house you only have the cool air. If you install an regular small air conditioning in a window, the excess heat produce by the compressor will be sent outside automatically since the back of the air conditioning is already sitting outside the window, so inside the room you will have 100% cool air. THIS PORTABLE air conditioning use a big plastic pipe connected to the back of the machine and it send the hot air (VERY HOT) outside thru this pipe... BUT BUT BUT there is so much LEAK from the connection that a huge quantity (and I say HUGE) of heat is push back into the room. Also this plastic pipe GETS VERY HOT, so again a lot of heat is produce INSIDE the room. Think about it for a moment, the compressor that produce heat to give you cool air is inside your room !!!!!! So now you have cool air in your room CANCELED by the heat produce by the machine which is also in your room ....!!!! STUPID concept. CONCLUSION ... THE design is bad , the engineer that thought about it are dummies ... simple. IT DOES NOT COOL AT ALL. You are just spending electricity producing cool air canceled by the hot air !!!!
