Soleus Air PH3-10R-03 10,000-BTU Evaporative Portable Air Conditioner with Heat Pump and Remote Control Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Piece of garbage.
(side note: the first one that got sent to me leaked water everywhere; I sent it back and received a working unit)
It's as if someone designed this thing aiming specifically for annoyance and inconvenience.
The manual is full of contradictions and outright lies; the unit needs draining far more than they suggest and the process is the most ridiculous thing I've ever tried to do.
The drainage spout is located about a half inch off the ground and the manual suggests that you not move the unit while it's full (I don't know exactly how much water it holds, but it takes a loooong time to drain).
This forces you to do one of two things; spend an hour filling up and emptying the tiny little tray they give you, or come up with some of your own creative and time saving drainage methods because you WILL have to drain this thing every 4-6 hours.
Plus, this unit is massive and a HUGE pain in the ass to move unless you can roll it to wherever you're emptying it.That being said, if you can rig up a way for it to drain continuously, it works like a charm.

Soleus Air® 7000 BTU Portable Evaporative Air Conditioner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Plus:
The unit cools well. It is small and easy to move.
Minus:
The dehumidifier is fairly noisy and it runs when the unit is in dehumidifier mode or in air conditioner mode. The compressor (which only runs in air conditioning mode) is very quiet as is the fan. I would not use this unit in a bedroom.
Installing the exhaust hose was a bit difficult as the hose did not have any end coverings and was a tight fit into the widow and air conditioner connectors.
The window slider kit is easy to install but the height is too small. The slider is only a little bit bigger that the opening for the window exhaust adapter. With the adapter in the slider does not sit on the bottom of the window frame. In my window there is a half-inch gap between the bottom of the slider and the bottom of the window frame that has to be filled in.
BTW, the instructions for removing the unit from the packaging material and box require you to destroy both so there isn't any way to repack the unit if you need to ship it back.

Soleus Air PE2-08R-62 Evaporative Portable Air Conditioner, Dehumidifier and Fan, 8,000 BTUs Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I cannot get a window unit due to my window size, and this unit came with a window kit that fit my windows. It worked absolutely perfect for 2 months. Then, on a particularly hot day, the bucket filled up with water and the unit shut off. I drained all the water, which is an absolute pain in the rear to do due to the drain being less than half an inch off the floor. The unit leaks water like a faucet ever since, all over the floor. There is really no effective way to use it anymore. I ordered a different brand that doesn't have water leakage issues. I should have listened to all the reviews I read. I practically paid several hundred dollars for a few months use. What a waste. The unit cools great, but what good is that with water all over your carpet? Stay away from this product.UPDATE: The unit only leaks when moved. If the water reservoir fills up, and must be drained, the unit must be moved to do so because the drain plug is literally right on the floor and there is no pan or container you can get under it. The reservoir will fill eventually, the unit will have to be drained, will have to be moved, will leak. Once all the water leaks out that is going to leak the unit works great until its time to drain again. Like I said, it took 2 months before I had to drain, but this process was a major PIA. I would avoid this unit, but I still gave in another star because it does not leak except during the drainage process.
