" ...  Super easy to set up, cools and dehumidifies rooms beautifully, is not noisy like my old ones that clanged all night long, and it’s energy efficient. ... I loved it so much that I bought a second one for my living room. ... In hot humid summer months these two 12000 btu units keep my entire 1900 sf house icy cool.  ...  "

" ...  Perfect for small one bedroom. ... First 95 degree day in LA and I haven’t used it at full speed yet, and it cools the entire apartment perfectly.  ...  "

comment
" ...  I used this on the second floor of my home which has two main rooms at about 140 and 190 SF respectively and i initially got 2, one for each of the rooms. ... The rooms are next to each other, but almost in a U shape so you wouldn’t expect the air to circulate around to cool both rooms, except it did. ... The main benefit being I could keep the one on in the room I’m not in (TV room), while turning off the one in the room I’m actually in (bedroom) and be fully comfortable, thus negating the noise.  ...  "

" ...  It’s THAT quiet. ... Not just for ourselves but also so our neighbors don’t have to hear “brewawarreesaaawrrrrr bzzzzzzzhhhhh rawrrre” every time the unit kicks on and we all also don’t have to endure sustained loud compressor noise afterwards.  ...  "
