Worth the price - but you take the bad with the good,

This review is from: Sharp 10,000 BTU Mid-Size Room Air Conditioner with Electronic Controls (Kitchen)
PROS:
* This is a 10,000 BTU with a 10.8 EER rating. * Cools a large area quickly. I use this model in an area about 20 feet by 40 feet (about the size of a typical studio apartment and kitchen) with 9 foot ceilings. This single unit cools my living room area, foyer, hall, small dinning area, and small galley kitchen with no problems. * I run it just about 24/7, even in the winter (use it on fan only as white noise to drown out the sound of my neighbors and because I can't control the heat in my apartment and it's always too hot). I've been running it 24/7 since May 2007 (a little over 2 years) with no problems. * The timer feature is very convenient. * The controls are easy to use. * I like the remote control too. It's easy and convenient. CONS: * There's a feature that is suppose to allow you to let in outside air or not - called the "exhaust lever". It is nearly useless. I know this because the grounds keepers in my apartment complex come by once a week with their very smelly leaf blowers and lawn mowers and the fumes permeate my apartment even with this lever set so the outside air is not suppose to come in. * As you can see by the photo I uploaded, the air intake grill gets dirty very fast and is very difficult to clean. To truly get it clean you must use a cotton swap dipped in window cleaner or similar time consuming task. * The filter is very basic. No hepa filter or other fine filtration system. Easy to clean, but won't trap fine particles. NOTE: I paid $320 for this at PC Richards in May of 2007. At this time, the ad above shows this at $199.97 - and I'd say that's a great price for this item. I see the Sharp AF-S80NX 8,000BTU Energy Star Window Air Conditioner is more expensive. Not sure why since it's less powerful. It might have different features. But I unless it has a filter that traps fine particles this model shown in this ad and less expensive is just fine. I also have the smaller one in my bedroom - the Sharp S60NX, with 6000 BTUs but be careful when purchasing and comparing. Not all Sharp Air conditioners have the same features, even if they look the same. For example, with the lower BTUs in my S60NX I got a few less features. It does have the same look as the 10,000 and 8,000 BTU models, and it has the remote, but a few other minor differences. The point I'm trying to make is be aware of the details, but still both the 10,000 and the 6,000 BTU models were worth buying. UPDATE, November 1, 2011: I hope Amazon keeps this review posted for those who might buy old stock or a used model. It served us well. Unfortunately I have to report that after 4 1/2 years of running this a/c nearly 24/7/365 it finally gave out. It didn't die, but it started making very loud noises and that made it scary. It was still putting out cold as it should, all was still working, but the noise was so scary so we put it out to the curb yesterday. Sad to see it go but we feel we got our money's worth from it. I don't think I mentioned in the upper part of this review, but this was model # AF-S100MX.

AC returned to due poor customer svc from the shipping company,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sharp 10,000 BTU Mid-Size Room Air Conditioner with Electronic Controls (Kitchen)
I cannot review the AC product because I never received it. I had a very difficult time with the New Penn Shipping company the vendor used to ship the product. Long story short - it took over 3 weeks to try to schedule a drop off. I eventually returned the product because the shipping company did not deliver as per our arrangements.
