Amazon.com Product Description
For exceptional versatility and comfort throughout the year, this four-in-one portable appliance functions as an air conditioner, heater, fan, and dehumidifier. Use it as a 1256-watt air conditioner with 10,000 BTUs of cooling power for staying comfortable in the summer, then in the winter switch over to its 1179-watt heater mode, which uses Heat Pump technology to deliver 10,500 BTUs of heating power. The user-friendly electronic control panel makes it easy to select the mode of operation, the ideal room temperature from 61 to 88 degrees F, and the fan speed--low, medium, or high. A handy remote control comes included, which allows for changing the settings from across the room. The unit can also function as an evaporative dehumidifier, removing up to 60 pints of moisture from the air a day to help maintain ideal comfort levels. Its Auto mode provides added convenience where the unit operates as a heater when the room temperature falls below 68 degrees F, as a dehumidifier when the room temperature sits between 68 and 80 degrees F, and as an air conditioner when the room temperature reaches above 80 degrees F. Other highlights include Sleep mode, a 24-hour automatic on/off programmable timer, optional oscillation, durable casters, and an easy-access permanent air filter. Best of all, its portable design means there's no need for permanent installation. Simply connect the exhaust hose (extendable up to 60-5/8 inches) to an open window using the included window-exhaust kit. The unit's efficient self-evaporating technology means there's no need to continually drain the unit. In extremely humid conditions, however, condensation may collect in the built-in tank if it can't evaporate fast enough. The compressor will automatically shut-off if the tank reaches capacity, and a "full" indicator will alert users to the need for emptying the tank. Accessories include a flexible exhaust hose with two adapters, an adjustable window-slider kit, a drain tube, and a drain pan. Ideal for the home or office as an air conditioner, heater, fan, and dehumidifier, the appliance measures 22-1/6 by 13 by 27-7/9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Customer Reviews

Don't do it!
I have had the unit for 2 summers. It sucks. You can't empty it easily. It does not cool our master bedroom and I regret buying it, especially at the cost. Please just buy a window unit. You will regret this purchase.

My First Review EVER.
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.

not worth it
I bought this product to condition the downstairs master bedroom at night so I did not have to cool the whole first floor. This product is quite loud. You can sleep through it, but it is more than just white noise. It is louder than a box fan on high. You will have to modify it to make it work well. The other reviews that mention foam board or some other insulator around the window vent are absolutely correct. It is also a good idea to wrap the air tube with insulation. The water reservoir fills very quickly in a room that already has conditioned air (filled in less than four hours in Houston). At that point I felt it just was not worth it.
