Looks nice, but doesn’t work well.

Honestly, I was hoping that the windmill would be a step up from the AC I had prior, but I’m not convinced. The larger unit doesn’t do a great job of even cooling off my small bedroom and yet the dead of summer, so I’m thinking I’ll have to figure something else out.

Set up was easier than

Set up was easier than the packet said. App works seamlessly. You can set up triggers and timing for the ac to turn on and off at certain points. It does everything you would expect and more. Very quiet and effective. Cools down my living room and dining room very well and quickly.

Replacement

I purchased a Windmill air-conditioner a year ago and it stopped working. I contacted them and they replaced the unit free of charge and in a timely manner once I was able to provide them with all of the back up documents. I now have the new unit installed and it is sleek and quiet.

Looks + Performance

I was a little skeptical about the A/C thinking that it may be more looks than actual performance, but I have to say it delivers on both. It is much quieter than most A/Cs so it isn't disruptive (especially on the initial settings). Further, it cools my room efficiently. I also really love that the airflow is pointed upward, not only does that more effectively cool a room, but it also means that direct cold air isn't blowing on me based on my position. All in all, I would highly recommend.

We absolutely LOVE our Windmill Air ACs!

We absolutely LOVE our Windmill Air ACs. We have two historic houses, both of which don't have central AC. We've struggled to find ACs that work well, are efficient, and also look nice with our historic architecture. We've tried every portable AC under the sun – they don't work great, blow hot air and take up a lot of floor space. Enter Windmill Air! I couldn't be more thrilled – they were super easy to install (seriously, easiest install for any product I've ordered in years! They even include scissors!), and are really helping to take the edge off the summer humidity here in coastal Massachusetts. I've told everyone I know about these ACs because they've made a huge difference in us being able to enjoy being indoors in the summer. I couldn't recommend them enough! If you are looking for a beautiful window unit that blows some serious cold air, get these ACs.

Windmill makes a great product that’s easy to install, comes with clear directions, and even included scissors to cut the stripping. I was having issues with a unit and they replaced it no questions asked. I will NEVER buy another brand of A/C other than Windmill. Keep up the amazing work and thanks!!!

Eco mode? Not the best. Quiet? Very. Easy to use? Totally.

The AC box itself is very pretty and SUPER quiet. The installation guide isn’t reaaally well suited to windows with storm windows, but with some shims we made it work. It would also be nice to get a little more insulation. We used a couple extra towels we had lying around to get things really insulated. All that said, the real reason i’m giving this 4 instead of 5: it doesnt turn off on eco mode, even when the room is 10 degrees colder than what it’s set to. Its temperature gauge will even show that it’s well below the threshold, but it wont shut off, not even intermittently. Not very ecofriendly or energy bill friendly :(

Loving both of our Windmill ACs

We have two Windmill Air Conditioners, the 6000btu and the 8000btu. Love them both. Very quiet and super easy to control using the app. We had an issue with one of them and customer service was awesome! Very quick to respond to take care of the issue and followed up to make sure things were right! Definitely recommend this company!

Very happy with my two 10K units!

I bought one 10K unit to see how it went, loved it, bought a 2nd 10K unit, love it too! They are extremely easy to install, and these 10K units are more compact that typical 10K units and fit great in my smaller windows. The cover on the condenser fins prevents your fingers from getting sliced. They're definitely quieter than my old 10K units and don't interfere with TV or conversation, but they're not silent. Phone app works great! Automation settings work great! Very happy with these units.

Such a great AC, we got two!

You often find products these days that are upgrades of common things we know and love but are brilliant with their beautiful design and marketing and as a designer I'm a sucker for all of it so the Windmill ads caught my eye. Ultimately, I was intrigued by the selling points so we finally decided to get one and I was really hoping it would be the real deal. And it is, that's why we got another one! We love how sleek our Windmills look, how quiet they are, and how cooling they are. In fact the one in our living room also cools the hallway and kitchen that are connected via separate open doorways which is extremely impressive. Windmill helped us get professional installers, for our first unit in the living room, because we live on a busy street and needed to have a safety bracket installed. The professional installation was far from cheap but an A+ experience. We thought about doing a pro installation for the second AC unit in the bedroom but we decided not to because we didn't love that it would take away our choice to remove it in the off months. 99% chance we'll leave it in but we liked the idea of having the removal option since that room only has one window so doesn't otherwise have great ventilation and I love a good natural breeze. I was nervous about installing it ourselves but it was as easy as any other AC I've had if not easier given the well designed simple instructions. I don't normally write reviews but have been so impressed with the Windmill ACs we got this season and thought this info might be helpful for you if you're considering it. I highly recommend. Thanks Windmill!
