3.0 out of 5 stars Cool deal, for the money, June 7, 2007

By	Rosemary Thornton "The Houses That Sears Built" (Norfolk, VA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I recently moved into an old house with no central air. The summers here are mighty humid and hot, with temps of 100 degrees during the worst of it. I purchased this little window unit because it's cheap and easy to install.

After running the air conditioner for about two hours (on high), the bedroom will be fairly cool, but I'm not sure how it's doing on humidity. I never see any water dripping outside, but you can hear the water slurping around in the back of the unit.

However, this 6,000 BTU a/c does NOT get the room cold, cold, cold. My bedroom is 12' by 17' with 9' ceilings and while it keeps it comfy, it doesn't make it bitter cold. I like to wake up in the morning with a little frost on the comforter and bluish lips. This unit can't do that. Even if it runs all night on high, max temp, it never gets the room past "comfy cold."

And it's noisy. I don't mind some white noise so I'm able to sleep even when the thing is blaring away but some folks might be disturbed by the loud fan motor.

For the money, it's a good deal and it'll cool down an average-size room but it's very cheaply made. The unit arrives partially disassembled (which surprised me). The top bar and side pleats have to be installed. The styrofoam shipping blocks in the vents are nearly impossible to get out. Ick.

And those accordian pleats on the side can't possibly last more than a couple years. They're thin and light and I was afraid of breaking them whilst doing the install! (Pass the duct tape, please.) The shroud inside the unit (where the cold air blows) is lined with chincy-looking plastic and styrofoam. Short of making it out of corrugated cardboard, I don't believe it'd be possible to make this unit any more cheaply. But if it lasts for a couple years, I'll be a happy camper.

One last note, this has the LOWEST efficiency rating of any unit on the market. You get what you pay for.

I bought three of these units so I could survive the summer, so I guess I've voted with my wallet. They're cheap, loud, chincy-looking and don't cool all that well, but they'll keep me from going stark-raving mad when the temps start to climb.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good window unit, August 10, 2007

By	Nanda Sambasivan - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The window unit cools two rooms of my house very very well. I just let the door open for the second room and both rooms get absolutely chilled inspite of the high humidity and heat outside( temprature 89+ for the past one week.)And I dont mind the manual switch at all.Its a damn good buy for $ 150 each.

4.0 out of 5 stars very good air conditioner, July 17, 2007

By	D. Morgenstern - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Bought two. The first arrived in perfect shape. Weighs less than others in its class, which is a plus when installing in a window. Cools very well, with excellent air flow (which does of course make noise, but acceptable). Ordered a second a few weeks later, arrived damaged, non-functional, but Amazon customer service immediately credited account.
