5⭐️- EXCEEDS MY EXPECTATIONS!
TOP QUALITY & MUST HAVE.
‼️‼️UPDATE 04/19/2024‼️‼️
I am even more impressed with this device. It’s been in the upper 80s for the last three days. I have the unit set to 66°, and the room is around 67°. I need the 🥶 cold. None of my other units would have been able to accomplish this.
Our bedroom is over our three-car garage; it is 425 sq—for the main bedroom and two closets. The central AC works fine for the bathroom. Even with a new heat pump for upstairs, it still doesn't cool or heat our main bedroom.
Firstly, I wasn’t playing around when ordering a new unit. I did my research. CONSUMER REPORTS, READ OVER 1,000 REVIEWS, and a recommendation from a TRUSTED STRAMFITTER (HVAC) guy. With the reviews, I noticed several things: most of the negative reviews were from frustrated people who, had they taken care of the device correctly, would still be working. ALL portable AC units need DIY maintenance. Clean the filter and drain the unit at least once every 30 days in high humidity or every 90 days in low humidity. Even though it says EVAPORATION, it still needs to be drained. The other issue is that people ignore what they are ordering and then blame it on the companies when it is their lack of attention.
I have 2 Digital Hygrometer Indoor Thermometer Humidity Gauge in the room. I placed one furthest from the unit and one on the unit. This way, I always know the temp & humidity in the room.
THE SOUND: (WATCH VIDEO)
The sound is EXACTLY as it is supposed to be. Those who stated it was too loud have never used an indoor portable AC unit. It’s not the same as a window unit. Window units have the motor and fans OUTSIDE the window, so the sound is different. If you stand outside next to a window unit when it is on, it is LOUD. Basically, the portable AC is quieter as a whole.
THE WINDOW KIT: (See Pictures)
This could be a little better. It almost didn’t fit my STANDARD window. I never use the FOAM that comes with the unit. I purchased weather-friendly, long-lasting foam instead. The foam they provide will get dried out and become dust.
THE REMOTE:
Very easy to use. Follow the manual.
THE DISPLAY:
Easy to understand & operate. Follow the manual.
THE HEAT:
Heats our room perfectly. We only keep it set at 68° because there isn’t a need for any warmer.
THE A/C:
Our bedroom is 425 sq ft, over a garage, and the sun beats in 2 of the four windows so badly that we had to black them out with Blackout Window Static Cling with White Side, Total Blackout Window . This unit cools the room rapidly and keeps it comfortable.
I like that once the room reaches my chosen temperature, it shuts down but comes back on when it warms up by 1.0°. My other units ran non-stop. This functions more like an AC/HEAT PUMP.
I’m impressed so far, and if anything changes, I will update this review to let others interested in purchasing this device know.
This portable AC is exactly as advertised, well-made, and works well. The PRICE is in the usual range.
