I was a little hesitant when I bought it. I had a window unit already, that had been working for me just fine, but my roommates AC stopped working, and her room was across from mine, and getting so hot it was making our shared bathroom hot, and I'm not a fan of hot muggy rooms. So I just decided I was going to buy a new AC, then I saw the standup models and thought I'd give one of them a try because our windows are low to the floor, and installing a window unit in them requires getting very low to the floor, balancing a heavy AC out the window, and hoping not to fall out, just to install the window unit, and it's just a dangerous feeling. I figured I'd give her my window unit, so I'd never have to bother with it again, if the standup one worked well. Other reviews I saw said it would be more noisy than a window unit, less efficient to cool the room down, and went on about negative pressure, so I was worried, but once I tested it, I had no problem wanting to use it for my room, and handed over my window unit to my roommate. It cools faster just on the low cool fan setting, than my window unit did. The high fan setting is probably for very large living areas and not bedrooms, because this thing pumps out air more forcefully than the window unit. The low fan setting is also quieter than my window unit was, and even if I just run it on Fan mode, without Cool, the air flow still makes my room feel cool. Installation was also very easy, and keeping it clean and maintained is going to be far easier than maintaining the window unit. Just slide the window tube off the back of the AC, and you can clean the filters, drain the tanks if you run the dehumidifier mode, and when your done, slide the tube back on. Some Cons that were simple enough to fix. First, the window installation kit is meant for extremely wide windows, or horizontally sliding windows. IF you have a standard house window that opens up and down, you will need to cut the extending portion of the window kit down enough to fit your window without blocking the exhaust hole. This took 2 minutes with a hacksaw. Second, the drain tube that comes with it, isn't the best method, since once you uncork the drain holes, water will immediately come out while you're putting the tube in. I cut the tube in half and then from the end, I cut one portion down to 3 inches for the top tank, and the other to 5 inches for the bottom tank. Then I bought cheap little plastic faucet spouts for them from Lowes, and crazy glued the spouts into the tubes. Now I can just keep the tubes attached, and when I want to drain the tanks, I just put something under a spout and turn the valve to let the water out without ever having to deal with the mess of trying to uncork it to insert a long tube. I also placed wire mesh on the window side heat tube outlet, to prevent stink bugs from entering, the way they were entering my window unit. We get stink bugs where I live, and every other day, one would come flying out of the window unit. Now I don't have to worry about them getting into the window exhaust tube, even though I doubt they could get into the standup AC from the tube, I didn't want the risk of them flying into my room, whenever I detach the tube for routine filter cleaning and general maintenance.

I love that it came with everything that's needed to hook it up. The vent fit perfectly in my window and was easy to install. I've used it for a couple weeks now and have had no problem with it. It keeps up perfectly without having to have the high fan on.

So this is a great airconditioner . It works very well. Others had talked about it being loud, but to me it as loud as a normal air conditioner. My only complaint is where they put the digital read out. It is on the top of the unit, so unless you walk up to it, you can not see the temperature it is set at, or the mode it is on. I also think that because the display is on top, the supplied remote does not work well. You have to hold the remote at a high angle in order for it to work . Mostly, you have to get up and get above and closer to the unit. Other than that, it's working out quite well.

This product works very well on our Florida enclosed area. Should have ordered a larger unit but that’s my fault, unit is working as advertised, would purchase again.

I recently moved into a new place unfortunately they did not have ac provided. I couldn’t spend too much to get a ac so this was a really good option. Super fast cooling ,Came with a remote and the settings were super easy to understand.

This portable air conditioner does a decent job cooling small to medium rooms. It’s easy to set up with the window vent kit and cools down a space pretty quickly. The noise level is okay.

We brought the unit last summer when our central air went out in Florida. It was a game changer. The front area is a great room large open space and it kept the whole area cool. It got up through 2 months of summer.

This thing is pretty awesome actually, especially compared to a 5000 BTU window unit.I only have 2 issues and neither are a huge deal. The bottom filter is difficult to remove with the exhaust duct installed. Not that it's impossible, I just didn't push my luck trying to get it out. I vacuumed it instead of removing it and rinsing it.Also, it needs a control panel lockout button. The control panel is on top which if you have cats that like to jump on things means they can jump on it and turn it off or change controls etc. I fixed it by putting a small throw pillow on top which has helped
