🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.

Both reviewers highly praised the cooling capabilities of the Whynter portable AC, highlighting its ability to drastically lower room temperatures quickly and effectively even in large spaces. They found that although this unit is more cumbersome to move than some smaller models, it is more powerful, and made with sturdy, high-quality materials. The overall performance of this unit exceeded expectations, however some improvements were recommended for the user experience, including a better remote control and a more adaptable window kit.

Pros

  • 🌬️ Exceptionally strong cooling capacity, effective even in larger spaces
  • 💪 Solid build and materials, offering durability
  • 🔊 Low humming noise, non-intrusive and tolerable for most users
  • 📐 Adjustable exhaust allows for multiple placement configurations

Cons

  • 🕹️ Remote control lacks functionality, is not two-way, and has limited range of operation
  • 🔩 Window kit feels lower quality than the rest of the product and is not easily adjustable
  • 🛢️ Size and weight of the unit limits its portability

Should I Buy It?

If you are looking for a powerful and effective portable AC to cool a larger space, the Whynter portable AC could be an excellent choice. Despite the size and the user experience improvements suggested, this unit offers a high level of performance and well-constructed design for reliable cooling. However, if portability is a main concern or you are planning to use it in multiple different rooms with different window sizes often, the window kit issue might be something to consider.

    • Updated 6/27/2021 detailed results after2 yrs this the 3rd summer and,..
Style: AC Unit Only
Update 6/27/2021 - over the summer months we had had three triple digit days and far too many 90's. Consequently the unit has been running most every day since we received it. it has worked flawlessly over the past two summers and now in our third it is fantastic, never once a problem. to be honest it cools down better than any portable unit we have owned to date. i could not be happier with the performance! also should note a few those days were very humid and as expected all the condensation was blown out the air exhaust hose i.e. no internal/inside water accumulation problems. that said i still hate the bright blue led panel on the front of the unit that cannot be turned off or dimmed at night but nobody's perfect. Update 7/11/19 – My most recent experience as follows. Yesterday for example outside a high 99F with dew points in the low to mid 50’s. Working from home in room approximately 150 sq. ft with a south facing window. The remote set temp to 77F with the fan set to low. I found the unit was keeping the room at a constant 76F, just off one degree. The condenser unit cycled on about once every 4-5 minutes, running for two minutes then off again. The fan of course runs the entire time in the background but the speed drops down once the condenser shuts down. But even with the compressor running you can stand right next to it speaking with no need to shout let alone raise your voice to be heard. Yes portables are a bit louder across the board but that is because unlike central air or window units all the noise making parts are inside with you not outside your walls. The rare ninety degree days i grew up with now are the norm. homes around here weren't built for those temps, nobody has central air except in the newest homes. It was about 2005 when we finally purchased our first portable unit. were impressed enough we purchased another that year though from a different manufacturer. All told we have had four machines from three different makers, so a little more experience than most. This unit and the most recent both whynter models. The unit arrived very quickly, on our doorstep two days after ordering. I greatly appreciated the ups guy who carried it up our stairs. The air conditioner is shipped with more protection than anything I have ever bought in my life, think Russian nesting dolls. After removing the first box, the second, the third then inside that last box was a very thick layer of foam. There was yet another box too with assorted parts inside. The unit itself was even partly covered with a peel off clear plastic protective layer. No surprise ours arrived with in perfect condition. The Good – 1 Dual hose! For fast cooling and efficiency compared to single hose models. Once we got our first dual hose unit we stopped considering single hose models because this type of design works better 2 Least amount of noise from any portable unit we’ve had to date 3 Rolls/moves around extremely easy. I was able to move it over a medium/high pile carpeted area as if it was a wood floor! 4 Cools very fast. The spare room approx. 150sq feet, tested in at 84F to 75F after about 20 minutes give or take 5 Easy setup, maybe ten minutes once out of the boxing materials 6 Vent slider bar/insert will fit windows from 20” to 46” either vertically or horizontally 7 Water all goes out with the hot air, no drain or bucket to be concerned about 8 all the remote function buttons are duplicated on the front of the air conditioner The Not So Good – 1 The vent on the conditioner is not powered. That said you can manually adjust angle 2 The remote is just a bad design, too small, not backlit 3 The vent hoses can be tricky to line up with the ‘tabs’ and get snapped into place properly 4 At nearly 80lbs or 100lbs with the box & packing materials can be difficult to move up stairs 5 Front panel bright blue LED readout is very bright w/no means to dim or turn off if using in a sleeping area Overall I like this unit better than any we’ve had before. It is much easier for me to roll around. The fan on high just blasts the room with cold air. I had no problems setting up other than getting the two hoses lined up so they’d snap in place correctly but a minor gripe. Though we do not use it for our whole home I have no doubt it could keep a couple medium sized adjoining rooms comfortable. As said it does cool well as i found out accidently the first week. I’d left it on by accident, came back later walked into an icebox so from that i know it will cool a room down to 65F. Regardless for myself the MOST IMPORTANT part is working without breaking down, reliability. The best air conditioner in the world is worthless if it breaks down. My expectations, if I don’t get some good use out of an air conditioner I won’t be a repeat customer. Our last whynter unit worked out well though it didn’t last quite as long as I’d expected. Nonetheless my overall impression that older model was favorable which is why we purchased this unit to replace it with. At this point I am very happy how things have turned out. Even on the hottest day this year 102F it worked perfectly. no drainage issues, no cooling issues, not a single problem. That being said reliability takes time to assess so once the summer has ended I’ll update this review and will continue to post updates for so long as it is working. ... show more

    • Beats the Heat & Going Strong After 10 Seasons! But Watch For Ice Accumulation!
Style: AC Unit Only
08/19/23: Let the ice thaw overnight and just reassembled it before the heat of the day got going. It's running like a champ again. Whew!! I'll definitely keep an eye on this since I have another surgery scheduled very soon. A note: I kept hearing water dripping but saw no water in the water heater drain pan I use to make it easier to drain rather than tipping it. I cut the drain cap off entirely, or it leave open (your choice). I have two units so I have one that is cut off and one that is open. Different locations with different needs. The one that formed the ice is cut-off but there was not water in the pan. A dead give away but I missed it. 08/18/23: The heat has been horrible here in WA. Running in the +95 degrees outside and no better inside. I've had my unit running night and day trying to beat it. Heard some clicking noises today and my unit kept shutting off. Figured it was finally dying on me but needed to do basic maintenance until my new unit arrived. Pulled all the filter components for a thorough washing and then tried to carefully brush vacuum the fins. Wasn't working so I put extra light on the area and discovered ice had formed. Talk about a shocker. Hard to know if it's a problem with the thermostat or something else. Presently waiting for the ice to melt. May still need a new unit. Really hope not. I'm recovering from surgery and don't need the extra stress on my body. The good news is that I have everything in place, including my insulation solution for really bad windows so I would only have to wait 24 hours before turning it on. 🤞🙏 6/12/19: This unit is back to working well after some modifications having to do with filtering outside air coming in. I also no longer rinse the outermost filter but vacuum it instead. Has made quite an improvement. Considering a second one for my bedroom since the effects don't reach that far. It cools it for sure, but I have four fans also running in my bedroom for the horrible heat days. I also like cool sleeping temps. Would be nice to move the fans to the living room to further move the air around there. The living room has a ceiling fan and one additional fan at the moment and it still gets very hot. Poor/no home insulation is the cause. 3/22/19: My original rating was 4-stars and I have removed a star due to my CS experience this morning and the lack of replacement parts. This unit is still on the job. Last year it started leaking badly and I requested instructions from Whynter on how to open it and clean it, which they promptly emailed. Finally did the job this morning, and while I couldn't get it open all the way, and CS/Support was ZERO help this morning and it may be an eternity before I actually hear from them, I did get it cleaned out sufficiently and discovered a wiring issue that needs to be addressed. Waiting to hear from them and I'm hoping it can wait until end of season to be fixed. It's been running, is still running well, so I think it will be fine. I'm nearing the end of my 7th season of use and I'm pleased with the longevity, considering what I paid. A worthy purchase. Would I buy it again after my CS/Support experience today... hmmm... maybe not. You can't talk to a live tech support person to ask a very simple question so this company doesn't work for me. I could have finished the whole job the right way if they had given me five minutes of their time. Apparently their customers aren't that important. When it finally tanks, I'll probably buy elsewhere. Something I really don't like is that lack of available replacement part and accessories. Clearly Whynter is no longer supporting this model. Nothing helpful on their site to buy, nor anywhere else, besides the hoses and some round filter attachments that are horrible and should have been included rather than charged for. They've moved on and when it dies I likely will too. Original: Purchased this unit last year, 7/6/2012, and enjoyed it all last season. Using it this again this year and still loving it. Minor filter cleaning and that's it to-date for maintenance. Cool and breezy, day or night. Not bad at all... ... show more
