This portable air conditioner is amazing for cooling down my backyard office/shed in Arizona. Despite the need to vent it with a hose, it pushes out seriously cold air and keeps my space consistently cool. Even in a hot state like AZ, I never have to set it below 76 degrees to feel comfortable. It can be a little noisy, but I don't mind as long as I'm not hot. After over a year of use, it's still working perfectly. I highly recommend it for anyone in a similar situation.

After conducting extensive research, I purchased this unit and have been extremely satisfied with its performance. It's currently installed in my enclosed lanai in South Florida, where it's providing me with much-needed cooling. Despite the high speed producing some noise, it decreases as the room cools. The unit is being pushed to its limits in a large area with high ceilings, but it still manages to keep the space reasonably comfortable.

I've found that the recycled moisture from the unit doesn't require frequent emptying, as only a modest amount of water is drained after running it for several days. Additionally, I haven't seen a significant increase in daily electrical use, which I can monitor regularly.

The window exhaust panel also worked out well. I had to extend the top of the panel by about 8 inches and had a piece of outside plywood cut to fit it at a local hardware store. The cost was minimal, and I even have some leftover.

Overall, I am very pleased with this unit and will provide an update on its performance in the future.

I have a 720 sq ft apartment, but the actual living spaces are a bit smaller. The rating for the unit is supposed to be up to 500 sq ft, but most at my complex are actually between 500-700 sq ft. I initially planned to try this unit out in the main living area, dining, and kitchen, and then add a smaller unit to the main bedroom. It's currently 78-80F outside, and humid due to being in south Texas. I allowed the unit to sit upright for 2 days, and it set up easily in my apartment window. Once I turned it on, the air became very cold in a short amount of time, cooling the apartment down from 78 to 72 within 30 minutes. My apartment has central air, but it has never worked well. This unit blows much colder air and works much faster. I plan to get the smaller unit for my bedroom, even though it may be too powerful due to its insulation.

I have been using this air conditioning unit to cool both my living room and bedroom before bedtime. It effectively reduces the temperature relatively quickly. However, there are some areas for improvement. The exhaust tube should connect higher up on the unit to cover more horizontal distance. Additionally, the provided window closing rectangles do not connect together securely, and the tube gets very hot during use. Connecting the tube to the connector is also difficult. Overall, while the unit effectively cools the room, there are several issues that could be improved.

The air conditioner is loud and works as expected. It lacks a place to store the remote, and there were delivery issues with UPS. Overall, it's a decent machine for the price, but the collapsible tube can be difficult to set up. Use needle nose pliers to gently pull the tube into the plastic guide in the window. Be careful not to poke any holes in the tube during this process.

The air conditioning unit effectively cools my small apartment. I often leave the bedroom door open and it cools most of the space, but close it on hot days to avoid overworking the unit. The lack of a power saving mode means the fan runs continuously, which may be a drawback for those who prefer quieter units. However, the filter is easy to clean and the remote is user-friendly. My only issue is with the window exhaust kit, as the installation instructions were unclear and the hose is heavy and inflexible, causing gaps in the connection. Despite this, the air conditioner performs well and I give it four stars.

This air conditioner has a modern look and fits perfectly in the corner of the room. It was initially borrowed by my sons for their apartment before I had a chance to use it. They used a couple of box fans with it to keep the great room cool and comfortable, and it also helped to cool the first bedroom. Although it's not designed for a whole apartment, it performed well when additional fans were used. I have it back now and use it in my bedroom at night. Without the air conditioner, the room temperature is around 82-84F on a 90F day, but within 30 minutes of using the air conditioner, it can cool down to 68F if needed. It switches on and off to maintain the desired temperature. I haven't received a bill yet for nighttime usage, but my sons said it increased their electric bill by about $60 when running it continuously. The only downside is that the venting hose is difficult to attach and stay in place. We've had to tape the hose to the window kit, which is included with the unit. I also want to get additional window kits so I can use the air conditioner in different rooms, as it is portable and on wheels. I'm still trying to find out where to obtain these. Overall, I'm happy with this unit and would recommend it to others.

After reading both positive and negative reviews, I decided to purchase two of these Impecca units to cool our rented house after the old central A/C died. The units arrived in heavy shipping packages and the instructions were clear about letting the unit sit upright for 24 hours before turning it on. I had to get creative with the window mounting due to our old crank windows, but once the units were up and running, they worked wonderfully. The air is ice cold, and the power bill has even dropped. I don't mind the noise level and the remote works well. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and don't understand the negative reviews. This unit does exactly what it's supposed to do.
