Installed two of these - the heavy duty and the light duty. Highly recommend you get the heavy duty, REGARDLESS of what size your A/C is. The heavy duty one is longer and provides more options for the install - the little one is shorter and isn't as flexible. Anyway, this is a great product, easy to set up, and gives you peace of mind that your A/C won't go crashing out the window. No brainer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice idea but doesn't fit a lot of apartments, June 23, 2010

This device is NOT universal.

I live in a pre-war apartment building in Manhattan. The facade is brick with drip edges around the windows - very common. This product basically does not work with this kind of wall. I bought the small one, based on the the size of our a/c unit, but the bracket was way too short and did not extend out far enough for the support arm to reach the outside wall. So I bought the larger one, which was designed for A/Cs much bigger than ours, and has a longer bracket but still it did not fit the wall. The only way I managed to get it to work was by using the longer bracket but with the support arm from the smaller one. It still is not that great but it is better than nothing. And for a grand total of over $80.. 1/3 of the cost of the a/c itself!

My advice is try to check if it works on your building. It is not easy to tell until you get it home and try to install it.

this thing is designed for a window that has a window ledge...mine doesn't, so this became very useless for me right when I opened it up and TRIED to use it...very nice paper weight though...if you get this, make sure you have like 4 inches of ledge or this will also become very useless to you too...the one that came with the A/C unit I bought works better then this does....that one is really universal...wait to buy something like this unless you KNOW you need it....other then that I couldn't use it...it would have work perfictly if I did in fact have a ledge like it was designed for :)
