Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've had this window unit for over a year, and I really love it.
First of all, my bedroom is 20x15 feet, one wall has one huge window on it, the second wall separates my bedroom from the garage, and a third wall has THREE floor-to-ceiling windows. Obviously, my bedroom is scorching hot in the summer, and freezing cold in the winter.
I've needed a window unit for years, but was worried about the expense of having one. I shouldn't have worried. First of all, the window unit helps cool down the house, and so the main house unit doesn't work as hard. Secondly, there is an energy saver option to use, so that it only checks to see if it needs to come on every 3 minutes. Turns out that other than the initial cost of the unit, the upkeep cost isn't much different from before I got it.
I love the remote. I love not having to get out of bed if I get too hot or too cold. I had completely dismissed the remote as something that I would care about when I was shopping for window units. Turns out that it's the feature I love the most.
There are 3 problems with the unit though. First of all the plastic accordion thing is too short to completely go to the edge of the window. If your window is any sort of average size, that means you're going to have to plug that up with something (I used a flat board and some foam, which is very unattractive.)
The unit was hard to set up... the directions were TERRIBLE. I ended up having to get someone to install it for me.
Final problem is that the temperature gauge is on the unit... so if you have the unit set to 68, it will shut off if the air next to the unit is 68. A couple of feet away from the unit it may be 74. This is not something unique to this unit... ALL window units are like this.
Otherwise, it's an awesome unit. I love it, and never regretted spending the money on it.
