This is the best portable AC unit I have ever had the pleasures to use. It's not loud,, i cant even hear it in the room beside it. It cools amazing, down to 61 degrees F. Easy setup with provided window piece. It plugged and played and was off cooling in no time. You will have to purchase some foam sticky sided weather stripping to really seal it up. This also doubles as a cooling unit in my RV van. Great buy and definitely worth the money.
I have been wanting a portable air conditioner for a long time now and while doing research for the best one, Whynter always popped up. I was not sure about getting it because at the time it was $500. Then recently I saw it went to down to $430. I still had doubts but the reviews and available videos helped me decide to get it. Setting up was very easy and straightforward with the youtube video I watched from UTECHPIA. The only setback was I had to trim one of the window panels. Machine moves around nicely, is quiet, and controls on unit and remote are simple to use. I use it in my master bedroom and the temperature in there is perfect now. It also does it in a great timeframe. I love it! I am very happy with my purchase.
This is an extremely heavy duty, good quality air conditioner. It really pumps out the cold air and does not struggle at all when it's really hot. I am a cold sleeper. I need my bedroom extra cold, technically this AC is too large for my bedroom, and I bought it that way on purpose, but I'm tired of my AC units failing and me waking up hot. This one is absolutely great! I stay nice and cool all night! I was shocked at the size of it, it's a lot for the money. But very powerful and effective.
It was much easier to install than my window unit. My townhouse is 1024 square feet. I put the unit on my first floor in the kitchen and it cools the entire first floor which is not an open floor plan. I don't find it to be any quieter than my window units. My least favorite thing about it is how much space it takes up so I decided to keep window units on the second floor in the bedrooms.
Powerful! Too powerful for where I wanted to use it - in a bedroom with 15 Amp circuit - so it keeept immediately and repeatedly popping the circuit. Moved it to the kitchen and used an outlet on a 20Amp circuit - no issues! With two box fans to blow the cold air down the hall of the ~1200sqft apartment, it is alllmost powerful enough that I don't need to use a second smaller one in the BR but this heat wave is also 94*F day and 80*F night … so should be fine solo for less sweltering days.
This air condition requires a knowledgeful person to install it. My handy man did my installation. It requires being connected to an outside window. it works exceptionally well. and it keeps the entire room very pleasant and cool. It is a very good choice for saving you money on your electricity bills. Sincerely, Donald Camp ❤️
I definitely recommend this Portable AC, installation was easy and it keeps the area its in within a degree or 2 of the temperature it is set to! One of the best portable ACs i have ever owned! 10/10 would recommend!
I've only had my Whynter portable AC for a day, and I'm already impressed with how well it cools. It is consistent and powerful — no complaints there whatsoever. That said, getting it set up was genuinely a bit of a project. The instructions could be clearer, and there's more fussing around with venting and connections than I expected out of the box. If you're not particularly handy, budget some extra time and patience for the initial install. Once everything was dialed in though? No regrets. It cools my space quickly and quietly, and the setup headache is already a distant memory. If you can stomach a slightly rocky start, the Whynter earns its keep.
The remote control does not work within 8 feet of the unit and it does not have a light so I can see the temperature settings in the night. The tank doesn't let me know how much water is accumulated before I have to clear the tank. I don't like that. I don't like that. It shuts off when the tank is full because it'd in the middle of the night.
I purchased one of these a year ago and it stopped working after three months of Use. I'm trying again because I don't see a better option out there and I'm hoping this time will go better. It's not that hard to set up, it's not that loud, and it does a decent job of cooling the space. I didn't have any problems with it until it stopped working! Beware that after two months while it may still be under warranty, you have to pay for shipping of an 80 pound machine back to headquarters for it to be repaired. So it's easier to just buy a new one.
