LG 6000 BTU SACC(9700 ASHRAE) Portable Air Conditioners [2023] Cools 260 Sqft Easy Install & Remote Control LCD Display Eco-friendly Small Room Air Conditioner AC Unit Cool Home White LP0623WSR

I have this in a 12ft x 12ft office. I really like the cooling ability and the easy set up! I decided not to permanently stick the foam on so I can move the unit around if needed. One thing to keep in mind with this unit is it's kind of loud. I doubt it's louder than any other portable AC but I always forget how loud it can be. Without it on, my room is about 45 db from where I sit and about 55 to 60 (using a random android app). I sit about 3 feet from the unit.

We rarely give bad reviews, but the circumstances associated with this purchase have left us no alternative.We installed a new hardwood floor in our daughter’s bedroom and wanted to use a portable AC unit to cool the space.We bought a new LG 10000-BTU Inverter Portable Air Conditioner unit that is designed to shut itself off if there is a potential for leakage. The unit was installed in the bedroom and ran trouble free for several months. It was not moved from that location during this period of time.We then noticed water leakage on the new hardwood floor under the portable AC unit and immediately performed routine maintenance on the unit (cleaned filters and emptied the water collection tank). The leakage was substantial enough to cause permanent damage to the floor.To prevent further damage to the new floor we bought a drip tray to put under the unit and a leak detection system to let us know if it does leak.We then called LG Customer Service to determine why the portable AC unit did not shut itself off before leaking on the new wood flooring. After over 45 minutes of discussion, they agreed to schedule a service call by D.G. Appliance Service.A technician from D.G. Appliance Service arrived and discovered that the unit had a cracked water collection tank. He stated that he had performed repairs of cracked water collection tanks in the past but did not have the resources (helpers) to repair it now. He left without fixing the unit and reported that the unit had "Physical Damage" to his supervisor. He advised us to contact LG Customer Service to resolve the issue.We contacted LG Customer Service on the same day and were told that the warrantee did not apply since there was "Physical Damage" to the unit.We disputed the finding because the unit clearly had this damage upon arrival, and we reported it within the one-year warranty period.It took several months for the defect to manifest itself for several reasons:First, the LG technical support documentation is very explicit in their warnings that the unit is never to be laid on its side (or back) and should be kept in an upright position at all times - Otherwise, you risk damaging the cooling system. In order to have detected this damage upon shipment we would have had to lay the unit on its side to be able to visually inspect the water collection tank located at the bottom. This is exactly what the technician did to determine that the water collection tank was cracked. We had to help him support the unit in a horizontal position while he inspected the bottom of the unit with a flashlight.Second, for the first few months that the unit was operating the weather was fairly mild, and the unit was able to evaporate the condensation as it ran without having a buildup in the water collection tank. The heatwaves that started in mid-summer precipitated the condensation buildup in the unit's water collection system and led to the leakage through the cracked water collection tank.Since the unit was never moved from its initial installation location there was never an opportunity to damage the water collection tank except for in shipping or manufacturing.We were forced into buying an identical LG AC unit to replace the first leaky one since the permanent venting that we installed in our daughter’s bedroom made switching to a different brand difficult. Upon plugging the replacement unit into our wall socket the circuit breaker in our main panel tripped. No amount of re-setting the circuit breaker would cure the situation and we were forced to pay an electrician to trouble shoot and replace the circuit breaker. We immediately returned the replacement unit and received a third identical LG AC unit that appears to be working.We have contacted at least a dozen LG authorized and non-authorized repair centers to fix the first leaky unit but none of them will repair a portable AC unit. So we have this POS sitting in our garage waiting to get recycled…

I bought this in June of 2023 and it's held up so far. It has worked great against a couple seasons of those 100+ degrees Fahrenheit summer temperatures.My only complaint is that my unit sometimes rattles on the low fan setting. I don't why but it seems to stop when I press hard against the front right panel.It does require some maintenance to keep it cool. I clean my filters about every 2 months and it's still blowing ice cold.I like having this on at night when I sleep near me on low when it doesn't rattle. It makes kind of a white noise for me not hearing birds chirping, but just the fan blowing.LG ThinQ app works great for my LG ecosystem with my fridge and also TV with this.

After I bought this, I saw a YT video about the issues with these units, that they pull air out of the room leaving a small 'vacuum', and the house is therefore forced to pull in air from outside - ie. hot air - to replace the air you've just blown out the window. It needs a double hose to not have this problem. Thus, these things aren't very efficient compared to a standard window unit. But those things are ugly and old fashioned, so these things are popular now.So, that's the negatives. Everything else? Great. Very very cold. Cooling done a bedroom thats' quite large and doing a good job without closing the doors, and the bathroom has an open area too. Put on an hour or so before bed though. 90-100 (30-35 C) in the bedroom without it.Additional info for nerds - this has a nice remote and app, but I wanted it connected to Siri/homekit. Fortunately someone has made an LG ThinQ plugin for Homebridge so if you set that up then you can actually make this unit connect to your Apple Home and bypass the app or other home systems. I like that. So it's worth getting the LG unit over cheaper ones just for that function, for me at least.Uses about 700-900watts of power. Again, a window unit might use less for same cooling. But install is trickier and it's ugly on the outside. Would prefer a proper split system but this is much more affordable. And I have a whole home split system but it's expensive to run overnight just for the bedroom.So this is helpful and good.

First, you should know I am a female senior citizen, and I installed this myself. It wasn’t easy for me, but it might be easy for you!This LG portable AC does the job! I was worried when it stopped cooling on the third day. But instead of getting upset and writing a bad review, I went to LG’s website and looked up support info. I found out that it just needs to defrost sometimes. No worries!PROS:It has a variety of of settings.Cools a small room very well without running all the time.Has a remote control.Includes window panels in various sizes.It’s about as loud as the oscillating fan I was using before, but shuts off periodically.CONS:Attaching to window is not as easy as it looks.Sometimes the remote doesn’t control the unit, and I have to try again.Remote has no backlight for night time use.It arrived in a beat up box and the hose attachment for the back of the unit was broken (I was able to easily fix it with duct tape and hook it up).In general, I recommend this AC. The temperature control is accurate and it cools my room very nicely.
