Measure your window first

I was expecting some small thing that I could easily cart from room to room but it's actually rather large and heavy. it works incredibly well though. I have a small house (under a thousand square feet). I keep it running in the loft and it keeps my whole house perfectly cooled to whatever temp I set it at. even though it's size and weight is much more than I expected, I'm really pleased with my purchase. However, make sure you measure your window first because the sizing bar for the vent was too big for my window even on its smallest setting. I had to custom cut it to make it small enough. my only other comment would be that the set up for the window vent doesn't really sit right in the window (see photo). I ended up just closing the window as much as I could and leaving some exposed space to the screen behind it because it just plain didn't line up and sit nicely when I tried to close the window on it.

This thing works amazingly well. I live on the second floor of an old Victorian and it's been like an oven in here. This air conditioner cools the room quickly and it is such a relief! The air is VERY cool. It is kinda loud, but I don't mind it. I'm just happy to be comfortable finally! It could be a pain to set up as the window part will not fit all windows. There's a 3 inch gap with mine - between my window frame and the plastic, but I have a screen so it's not a problem. But you might have to get creative to make it fit, depending on the size of your window. Overall I think it's a great air conditioner for the price.

Perfect Air Conditioner for a loft or bedroom

We purchase this product to cool a loft space (378 square feet) that was always 10 to 15 degrees warmer than the downstairs. With no door or way to close it off the cool air just migrated right down the stairs. We installed this in about 30 minutes. It does come with a window vent kit that we had to cut to size then insert the supplied set screw to hold the length in place. We use some wide painters tape to seal the small gap between window and vent kit. The temperature was 81 degrees when we turn it on and within about 120 minutes the temp was down to 73. It has a temperature setting that will cycle the compressor on and off to hold the temperature you set. The unit is very quiet on low and even on high it is tolerable. The cooling vent can be set to move up and down automatically to help move the cooled air around. A very nice feature.
So far this unit has exceeded expectations and we are hoping that it will last for many hot season's to come.

My master bedroom is the hottest room in the house during the summer. It’s been like this for years and it’s all due to the ducting in my house. For years I complain about the heat and not sleeping good at night. This year I decided to get me a portable AC unit. I bought one from QVC which was a lot bigger more expensive, louder and broken parts. Once I realized that one was not going to work for me I boxed it up did my return slip and went to Best Buy to look for something local. This was the only one they had in stock and that was on sale. Brought it home set up is pretty Easy. Yes it is s little loud but I’m use to it and it cools my room so well. I sleep so much better and the noise is my new sound machine. Worth every penny!!

Had my portable ac for over a year now and it keeps me cool...no issues at all...the remote control is convenient and I love how it swings up and down. Also the fan and dehumidifier function works well too. Highly recommend. Thinking about buying another for kids room.

Use this in a large open space with high ceilings and little insulation. Our three season room. Even with the recent heatwave this unit was able to keep the space comfortable.

Good AC

I bought this the summer of 2019 and currently using it for the third summer now. It works well. Had to install it on a sliding door. Bad they got discontinued
A:AnswerCalculated using the traditional method, this AC is rated at 10,000 BTU. The new method (DOE) accounts for the heat generated by the AC unit itself, which in turn, lowers the effective cooling power of the unit to 6,500 BTU
A:AnswerGood luck with this. I may have gotten a bad one - the hole to drain the tank is up at the top of the tank. I was not able to fit an aquarium hose into the hole. It was small enough, but it seemed to be blocked, so the hose would not go into the tank. I had to return mine. I ran it for about 10 minutes. The vent hose got very hot - 119 degrees f. It was a very flimsy connection. When I brought it out to my car to return it, water was spilling out of the hole. I have no idea how that much water accumulated in 10 minutes. I bought model NS-AC10PWWH9 and it claimed it was discontinued, I got it for 249.00. I had faith in the Insignia brand, and the reviews were good, but this was a total waste of time and effort for me. At least I was able to get my money back.
A:AnswerNo hose to drain water. But there is a storage area for the water and an indicator on when it is time to empty it. We have been using this for 3 weeks now and havent had to empty it yet.
