I purchased the 14,000 BTU air conditioner and found that it cools very effectively. However, I had trouble running it on a single 15 amp circuit, even when it was the only thing plugged in. I learned that the wire gauge for a 15 amp circuit is not thick enough to handle the power draw of the AC, and it could cause a fire. I ended up hiring an electrician to install a dedicated 20 amp circuit, which solved the problem. I also want to caution against using an extension cord on a 20 amp circuit, as it can overheat and cause the AC to malfunction. I ultimately paid for the installation of two 20 amp circuits, and the AC now works perfectly in a large room with other high power requirements. Overall, I am very happy with the performance of the AC unit.

I purchased this air conditioning unit in the Pacific Northwest at the end of last summer (2017). The last four summers in the area have been very hot, with a high number of hot days and high temperatures. Most apartments in the area do not have built-in A/C, as it is not typically needed, but I decided to get a larger unit for my living room/kitchen open area due to the extremely hot weather. In 2018, the unit started showing an LT error frequently, causing it to stop cooling for a few minutes before kicking back on. I'm concerned about its longevity and functionality, even though it's not used constantly. The unit is likely being used in a space that exceeds its recommended square footage, but it still does a decent job of keeping the area cool. I realized that using the remote and console to turn the unit on and off can confuse it, and after making sure to use the same source to do so, it seemed to improve for a couple of days before reverting back to its previous issues. Overall, the unit is still powerful and doing an okay job, but the frequent errors are impacting its ability to keep the room cool.

The assembly of the unit was a bit frustrating, and I had some issues with the exhaust hoses and the oval shaped connector to the window plate. However, I was able to fix the latter issue with foil tape.

I purchased this unit to cool my kitchen and living room until I could get my central air fixed. Despite needing 13.5k BTU, the unit was not as effective as I had hoped. I found that the air movement and cooling capabilities were not as strong as my window unit, and I was not impressed with the dehumidifier mode. However, the fan mode worked well and the noise level was tolerable.

In terms of features, I would have liked a better programmable mode, an Eco mode, and a more adjustable grill design. Additionally, I believe the price of the unit is a bit high for its performance.

Overall, I would not purchase this unit again for its current purpose, but it may work adequately for a more permanent job. I would caution against buying it at its current price.

I've been using this air conditioner for 2 days and it definitely cools the room quickly. I'm using it in a dining room addition to my home that gets very hot and doesn't have its own HVAC vent. It's a bit loud, but that's expected.

My main criticisms are:
- The hose vent attachment to the back of the AC does not secure well and falls off easily, making it difficult to put the other end in the window.
- The weather stripping it comes with is too short and not the right size for the window adapter.
- It doesn't report the current temperature.
- I wish there was a way for it to turn on automatically when the ambient temperature reaches a certain point.

I haven't had to drain it yet, and I don't anticipate needing to do so often because I live in a dry heat area. I'll update my review at the end of summer.

Last summer, I purchased this portable AC unit when my central AC broke and I didn't want to immediately spend the money to replace it. It was a bit bulky and heavy when it arrived, but it was easy to set up and didn't require any special tools. It cools the immediate area well, reduces humidity, and has kept multiple rooms comfortable. I didn't need to empty the drip tray, and it even worked well in cold weather without needing to be removed. The remote control isn't necessary for me, and the unit sometimes shuts off when it ices over but restarts on its own after a few minutes. It's a bit loud, but I got used to the sound quickly. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase and it has saved me a lot of money by not having to immediately replace my central AC.

This portable AC unit arrived in a sturdy retail box and had to be assembled with some difficulty. The window vent blocking plate required cutting and securing, and the remote and interface were not user-friendly. However, the unit was able to keep a large attic bedroom cool, and the AirSwing feature was helpful. The unit did have some issues with water accumulation and power spikes, but overall it continued to perform well.

After using this product for two months, I have some feedback to share.

1) This AC is small for a 14,000 BTU, which makes it great for saving space.

2) The sliding window panels used to connect to the attachment are not sturdy enough and tend to bend when trying to connect. I recommend making these panels heavier.

3) The unit blows very cold air, but the fans are sensitive to obstruction of air through the rear vent. It is important to keep the screen very clean at all times in order to prevent fan malfunction.

4) The remote works well and can pick up the signal without needing to be directly facing it.

5) The unit has strong fans and can cool a 400 sq ft space from 80 degrees to 67 degrees in a half hour. It runs through the night and has good air flow.

6) This AC requires regular cleaning and maintenance for optimal performance, but it is worth it for its cooling power on a hot day.

I purchased this air conditioner for a room that is larger than the recommended size, but I needed it to combat the hot weather and the heat produced by my computer and monitors. The unit cools the room quickly when the outside temperature is around 70 degrees, but it takes longer when it's 80 degrees outside. It is easy to use and built well, but it is noisy, especially when the compressor kicks on. However, I don't mind the noise when I sleep. The unit didn't significantly increase my electric bill and it keeps the room cold, even with electronic devices running. The window kit could be improved, as it doesn't seal tightly. Overall, I am happy with this unit as it allows me to sleep better and keeps the room cool. If anyone has questions or wants to see more, I am willing to help.
