Air Conditioning Unit Portable Air Conditioner 9000 BTU 4-in-1 Dehumidifier, Cooling Fan with 2 Speeds, Digital Display & Remote Control, Window Kit, 24 Hour Timer for Room Up to 269sq.ft

I'm slow to review products like this one, simply because its impossible to tell their quality over time when you first purchase them. However! Having just set it up this year, for its third year of use, I'm happy to say its still working just as well as when I first bought it. Overall, love this thing. It's my 10 y/o black labradors best friend, he loves napping in the cool air stream. And it's made the last two years summer heat spikes so much more bearable, and its now doing the same for this year too! Its pretty noisy, but thats to be expected as far as I'm concerned. No home AC unit is going to give you an absolutely silent room. But it's no issue for me, my sleep remins uninterupted by it. The window vent is a bit flimsy, so I used some padding and such to improve the seal with the window and frame. All good. It cools my room down in a matter of minutes. I like to turn it on before the room heats up to maintain a cooler temperature when able since I find this more efficient. But it can take it from, say, 24 down to 20 no problem. Sometimes have a little battle of wills with getting the cooling system to start after it's been turned off for ¾ of a year. But I can't really blame it for not wanting to wake up. I can't say I really use the timer, as I just turn it off and on as I feel is necessary. But it's a good size, not too big. And it does just exactly what I want it to. I cant claim to have stored it away meticulously, either. But its pretty easy to take the filter panels off to clean the dust and such. All in all I'm extremely happy with this, and for now 3 years of cooler sleeping conditions in summer it was very worth the price in my opinion.

Portable air conditioners are noisy. 54 decibels on low at idle kind of noisy. Think of walking behind a restaurant and you can hear the evaporators outside – that goes for all portable air cons as the evaporator is built-in. But it's not a bad way to keep cool in the summer heat. The air in the room feels crisp and refreshing when compared to other rooms in the summer heat. In terms of energy, it costs us about £0.32 per hour to run, so it's not great not terrible in that regard. I haven't tried the dehumidification setting yet, but there is some water pooling in the built-in reservoir already – I guess I have to put it on a small table to drain it, as the opening is almost flush with the floor. We tried sleeping with it on the first night we bought it – I couldn't bare it, my partner slept like a log. I've since purchased some reusable ear plugs for around £8, and they seem to have done the trick. Last night I used the timer function for two hours until we fell asleep, and that worked well. Another thing I had to purchase was window covers, as we have top-hung, outward projecting windows in every room. They do a good job of holding the supplied cheap hose, but I am thinking I might need another hose in the near future, as the one that comes with this product is super clunky. An ideal solution would be to drill holes through the wall to and attach the hose to that, but we can't do that since we're renting. All in all, a good solution for the British heatwave. We will see how long it lasts, but for now it's been a releif having it in the home office.

This is an amazing cooler on hot sticky days and nights, used a lot since buying with perfect results. Very easy to use, looks nice and whilst a quite heavy to put away in the loft in winter it has been a life saver for a comfortable sleep. Wouldn't be without one now. You pay for what you get so whilst some may thick its expensive you really can't compare to the old fashion fans that just blow hot air around your room. this not only sucks out hot air but pumps lovely cool air down to 16 degrees. Noise level is ok, can be noisy of full speed but small price to pay.

I am an elderly lady who needs equipment that is easy to get going from point of delivery and easy to manouvre in situ. The air conditioner arrived promptly and was easy to put together. I did wait for the 6 hours advised on the outer packing and fiddled a bit with the window fitting gear, as I only have small, outward-opening top windows. The sliding gear fitted in easily and I secured it with a couple of pieces of strong, double -sided tape. I then devised a fly screen , made of plant netting and tied that on, secured with awning clips that will be easy to remove at a later date. This unit was purchased as an addition to 2 x 20 year old air conditioners which have tanks that need to be emptied of water several times a day in hot, humid weather., partly because of the fact that the new one discharges the water through its own hot air duct when in cooling mode. Having now used it, I am well-aware of the improvement in speed and fast cooling effect. It is almost enough to cool my entire 2 bedroom bungalow, but a second one will be a perfect solution in really hot weather such, as we now suffering. The only downside, is that it is a bit noisy, but I got the house cool enough yesterday, in about 4 hours, to enjoy a perfectly acceptable night temperature. I always had to use my old ones overnight and almost all day in very hot weather, so think I shall be able to get a better result with less use of electricity with this model. In addition, it is pleasing to look at and not as large as the old ones. One perhaps important point is that it has a much wider outlet hose and I am guessing that this disperses heat from the house much faster. I just hope that it lasts as long as my old ones!

The uk was set to have a heatwave 17 June 2022 at 32 degrees Celsius (89.6F). Which doesn’t sound a lot but we tend to not get much wind with our temperatures and also we have poor heat alleviating resources at home, like no AC or ceiling fan to cool us off effectively. This was a big purchase as I don’t have much money rip To start off, the parcel was a bit heavy but that’s an AC for you, still lighter than my mini fridge in my room. It also has wheels which makes it easier to move around (also comes with two spare wheels which is amazing) There were instructions provided but honestly it’s super self explanatory with common sense as to where the tubes go and which parts to use where. So installation was super easy. I also installed the window bag thingy myself via a separate purchase as my windows are somewhat weird (the bag through which the ac tube goes outside) On the heatwave day I set this to the lowest setting on 16 degrees and I felt no warmth from the outside, in fact I was cold after an hour or so and I had to get blankets in my room because of the cold itself, and I love the cold but while stationary on my day off in bed watching shows, I got pretty cold. I found 20 degrees to be a very comfortable temperature, not hot, not cold. Just right. Noise levels, it’s actually a lot quieter than I thought it’d be. Its noise levels are like a regular school AC system where you can hear the fan and that’s all, no clinking from any pats of buzzing. The panel on top of the appliance is easy to use and a simple touch activates it. This is further improved by the remote control. You can even change the fan speed from low to high which is a big plus Overall it’s a great appliance 100% worth the money.

Keeps cool but hose is rubbish and doesn't stay on due to poor design

The unit does work well as an Air Con unit. You can really feel the cold coming through it. The main issues I have had with this unit, some of which are probably on me for not doing a full research before buying are: - Noise - this is a very loud unit. I wouldnt be able to have it in my room if I was trying to sleep. Luckily, I use it in my office, where I tend to have headphones on, so it doesnt bother me too much. - How it connects to the window - My windows open outwards, where this unit is designed for sliding windows. This means, I have to have the windows to use it. Reading up on Air Con units, as you are changing air pressure in your room, the pressure is backfilled with Air outside of you room. If you have the windows open, then this would mean you are drawing warm air from outside back into your room. It does a good job at cooling a room down, but I suspect, it isnt very efficient at doing so in the way I have it configured.

I bought this product as I was fed up with sat working at home in a puddle of sweat. Pointing a large desk fan at my head was no longer cutting the mustard. I bit the bullet and bought this after a lot of research and reading reviews of similar items. The reviews sold it for me. I purchased via the payment plan which was very easy to set up and is managed through Barclays. As for the Aircon unit itself, it definitely is as described. It cools a room down very quickly, I have a living room with dimensions of approx. 6x4 metres and it took about 15-20 minutes to cool down to the desired 16 degrees Celsius. There are 2 speed settings and 3 cooling settings, I have mainly used the Ice/frost setting to cool the room down rather than dehumidify or fan. The product came with a window seal adaptor and exhaust hose. However the adaptor only fits sliding windows, which most new build homes in the UK don't use. I still need to but a open window adaptor separately. I have found sticking the exhaust out an open window and closing the curtains is effective enough for now. Obviously it is vital the exhaust be able to vent outside to remove the hot air from the room. I am very happy with the product as a whole, but have 2 minor drawbacks. Firstly it is heavy, as the exhaust hose isn't massively long it does not reach a lot of my windows. For that reason I have had to put the aircon unit on a chair or box in order for the hose to reach out the window. Lifting it could be a challenge for the weaker of individuals. My 10 yr old son definitely couldnt manage. Second drawback unfortunately is that it is not as quiet as I was hoping. Yes I understand it blows out cool air into a room with a fan, but paying this much I was hoping for a more quiet sound. I am a very light sleeper so I was unable to sleep at night with this unit on in the background. However I am sure some could cope, similar to white noise. I have recommended this to others already as it is a great product. Keep it cool folks
