  • Nice unit and thoughtful design
Style: 12,000 BTU Upgraded
Really like this ac. It is much easier to install than other units I have had. The unit runs much quieter also. It keeps our large bedroom nice and cool. The new U bend design is nice.

  • Good Product So Far
Style: 12,000 BTU Upgraded
Got this for my tenant. She says it cools her apartment right down, even though it is just undersized for the volume it is cooling. Quiet too. Installed easily. My only complaint was that it got beat up in transit, box was damaged, and the casing that goes outside took a pretty good hit, so it has a few bends in the metal. Because of this, I almost lowered to 4 stars, but it really is shipper that gets the poor grade here, not the manufacturer. I still don’t know what this is going to do to my electric bill, but it claims to be very efficient. Time will tell. ... show more

  • Great AC unit and cools everything. Good deal. May not be good for light sleepers. Great AC unit and cools everything. Good deal. May not be good for light sleepers.
Style: 12,000 BTU Upgraded
This a great cooling unit and it also looks very nice. It chills the room quickly and the quiet fan is quiet. I think it might be the compressor that makes noise when it hums and vibrates and that is only sound it makes and it can be kind of loud for light sleepers. The remote makes it easy to control from a distance, but the info like temperature or mode might be out of sync when you change settings with the AC buttons instead. The remote display info refreshes after changing anything with the remote. The vent is adjustable. The foam boards and weather strips come included. It works for me and I love it. Had it for a month so far. I thought it was a pretty good deal. I have no information about efficiency, I just wanted an AC unit that didn't cover up all the window and the U shape is good for isolating the condenser outside so it releases the heat more fully outside. I would have preferred that the remote display have a backlight when it is used at night. ... show more

  • Works great but drains inside your home
Style: 10,000 BTU
I’ve been using this about a week so I can’t speak to long term quality. It’s much quieter than other air conditioners I own, especially if you use the quiet mode. The u shape means it is secure on a second story window. Definitely need to measure carefully, it was almost too narrow for my old window sills. Otherwise installation was easy with two people. Something no review mentioned was that there is a drainage port on the inside half of the unit. If I leave this open it probably drains a cup of water an hour, so if that’s an issue to you definitely don’t buy this. The only video review that showed this was clearly a paid review of someone who didn’t use the unit, as this is impossible to miss if you leave it on for more than five minutes. The u shape means that water cannot drain outside. The water would eventually fill up the interior half and leak out of the casing if you didn’t open the plug. However, if your alternative is a portable a/c the drainage is situation is inevitable. Either way this was worth it to me and definitely cools the majority of my apartment (~200sqft living room and 45sqft of hallway) and is half as loud as my other unit. I’ll have to buy a hose and bucket for the drainage as I cannot drain this outside. ... show more

  • Works well, but complicated to install
Style: 12,000 BTU Upgraded
Does a good job cooling and has quite a few setting that come in handy. However, the main selling point of a window unit that sits low and straddles the window sill isn’t as great as it sounds. It’s also much louder than I expected. Yes, it’s nice not having as much of the window blocked by an AC unit, and you definitely don’t have any worries that it’s going to drop out the window. Those are big benefits. But getting the unit into position and having to piece together weatherstripping/foam board to block window openings was a real headache. The unit also weighs much more than a typical window unit and is harder to navigate since you have to lift over the sill and then drop it down. You also need a big window because you need enough clearance to negotiate the unit through and then down. If low profile and having the AC securely fastened around the sill are priorities, this is a good unit. But for the hassle it took to install, I will go with a regular in-window unit in the future. Also, make sure you measure before you buy. I have what I think is a normal-depth window sill, and the unit barely fit around it. ... show more

  • Great Window AC Unit that does not block view out of window.
Style: 12,000 BTU Energy Saving
Outstanding performance and operation. Easy to install with assistance of another person as the unit is HEAVY for one person to lift and move around. Very quiet operation and easy to use with the remote or by using the touch panel on the front of the unit. Hardest part of the installation was getting the unit out of the packing material as it was very well packed for shipment. ... show more

  • You can’t always get what you want..
Style: 12,000 BTU Upgraded
This AC unit fits so well over the windowsill and provides a clear view of the window without taking up the entire space. However, after a month, we noticed that it doesn’t get as cold as it used to. Additionally, it makes a lot of rattling sounds. Make sure to level it out properly, as we didn’t, and even after leveling it out, it still has a loud motor cranking sound that randomly turns on, even when the unit is off. This might be due to condensation. Unfortunately, you can’t turn off any of the lights, and they are very bright. We had to cover our brand new unit with electrical tape to sleep because the lights lit up our entire bedroom. I reached out to the company, but unfortunately, it was just outside 30 days, and they basically told us that we were out of luck financially. ... show more
