Air Conditioners - Product Reviews

LKPCA - (May 18, 2004) Excellent cooling power ONLY in the direct stream path of unit. Nothing to the sides or about 7 ft away. Thermostat measured an 8 degree drop in the path, but to me it felt like it dropped a lot more, very refreshing. Humidity only went up additional 10%. It will beep to tell you when the water level is low. It initially would not pump the water through, but turned out to only be a loose connection. It was easy to unscrew and access the inside of the unit, and reconnect. Both the PC4USA and Sunpentown customer support were very excellent and accommodating when contacted about that.

simpsonsrule - (July 07, 2004) The unit is very efficient and effective at cooling - it works just great. I find it best to set the thermostat at 69 or 70 degrees F to cool. The Auto Mode is basically useless as the compressor will only begin to cool if the room is above 80 degrees. The unit itself is sleek and easy to move around. Setup and installation was easy and the instruction manual is very easy to follow. I wish the exhaust hose and window insulation were a bit more sturdy. I bought some pipe duct insulation to put around the exhaust hose - this helps to keep hot air from accumulating around the exhaust hose (without the insulation I bought, it gets warm back there). The exhaust hose connects to

szechuan85 - (June 29, 2006) This is a good unit if you need to cool a fairly small room. I use it to cool a room that's about 120 sq. feet, and it does a decent job. The unit is small enough, but at around 65 pounds, it could weight a little less. But overall, it's a good buy.

scottiec4200 - (11/01/2009) auto mode sucks thay expect you to tack of the ducting for dehumidify moodnot what i was looking for i need it all in one

monotheist - (08/11/2009) It looks pretty good in the spot I cut in the wall for the unit, and the air conditioner unit went in easily, without any unexpected trouble. I've installed three of these of various sizes now, and will buy again, as needed for business.

Iwantquality - (07/23/2009) This has to be the junkiest appliance I ever bought. It was dead 2 days in use and on the hottest day of the year so far. I called their customer service for some troubleshooting and was given useless advice. I left it on hoping it would finally work but it started leaking! Just fantastic.
