Works great! Small footprint. I hooked up the hose from the upper drain port into a clear 1-gallon juice jug (NOT plastic milk cartons; those are meant to disintegrate & WILL leak). And other reviewers were correct in that the vent fins don't stay open, but I taped them open with white duct tape I already had & you can barely notice (see photo). I would recommend security rods (not tension-spring shower curtain ones, but locking pin ones with feet to adjust to under 1") for window security (I will review those soon as well).My bedroom is always hotter in the summer than the rest of my house as my bathroom sticks out & has 3 walls in the southern sun (east, south, & west) that heats it up. I even had more insulation blown into the attic to no avail. Due to medical issues, I need a cooler bedroom, & the ceiling fan & tower fan were NOT cutting it. This thing gets FRIGID fast! Just set the temperature while in "cool" mode, and it circulates on/off to maintain that temperature. As a lower-priced model, many others in this price range don't have a thermostat to cycle it to your desired temperature other than "high/low" settings, so that's why I chose this model. Dehumidifier & fan only modes are not set by the thermostat, and you may select the temperature to be in either F⁰ or C⁰. There's also a sleep mode & timer, which i have yet to use either. I bought this on the tail-end of summer, so I intend to use it next year as well. I would also recommend taping all the way around the window kit for drafts with duct tape on the edges, seams, & hose connection. My window was a bit too narrow to use the full inner sliding part without blocking half of the hose exhaust opening, but it took just a couple minutes to easily saw off those few inches of it & it worked like a charm for a custom fit with plenty more expandable. I will probably disconnect & store everything for the winter, but it wasn't difficult to install (I've owned larger units like this with an intake & an exhaust hose). I would say it isn't much louder than a microwave & provides good white noise, but it is far from whisper quiet. It is what I pretty much expected.*UPDATE*In the past 24 hours, I have dumped about 2.75 gallons of water out with it in dehumidifier mode. Definitely gonna need a bigger container than a 1 gallon one for overnights if I'm dumping out a gallon every 6 hours or so.

I bought this because I needed an AC unit, and this was on a smoking deal --$150, delivered. It is an effective little unit, with a few faults. (I ordered the 8,000 BTU model in grey.)First, I believe they have updated the remote. I've included a picture of the one I received. No light-up buttons, but very functional. The unit itself keeps my bedroom at a consistent 72 degrees, right where I want it. The louvres on the front tend to sag, sending my precious AC to the floor instead of up toward the middle of the room, where I want it. My solution was to duct tape them in the pointing-up position (not pretty but effective).Setup was easy. I live in a high humidity area, and have not had any issue with the water pan filling up, nor did I connect the included drainage hose. Wheels are tiny, and the unit is cumbersome to move on carpet, but I really only need to move it twice a year (into storage and out of storage). It is small and fits neatly in an awkward corner of my bedroom, Vents out a window nearby. The vent kit is not the best; I had to hacksaw one of the pieces in half to make it fit my window.Weighs about 50 lbs (average), and is about average in terms of quietness. I don't use the "sleep" function as the unit tends to turn itself off when in sleep mode. I just keep it in cool mode 24/7.I had one of these I paid $500 for a few years ago. It was better, quieter, and had a nicer remote. But it was more than 3X as expensive. For the money, this unit is great. Keeps my room nice and chilly.

Yo lo recomiendo., sinceramente cumple con lo descrito en la publicación.

Great value and works as intended. Very cold air. Perfect for smaller spaces.
