GREAT but.......

the exhaust tunnel designed hard to connect together and kept losing from Windows. Machine is great but the accessories not recommended. So far... Cool air is enough for our living room area. thanks.

Great investment!

I bought this a few weeks ago to cool down a large and open living room/kitchen/dining room area of the house and it does an amazing job! Not an eye sore, quiet, and effective.

slippery btu claims

nice unit , but i wish i had bought a portable ac unit with double hoses , as i would have a unit that was a true 14,000 btu unit. single hose creates a vacuum and draws warm air into your home, so you get just over half the btu's listed.

An excellent portable AC unit

I bought 2 similar portable ac units several years ago and they worked well but were more expensive. This one was cheaper, works much better and cools a large room really well even in the 100 degree heat of south Texas.

Happy Customer

Purchased this a month ago to replace previous DeLongi unit that died after 10 years of use. Love the new features of this one such as dehumidifier option, fan only option, and the color. Sam's Club also offered the best price around.

Mediocre Cooling but quiet

It doesn't have the cooling power i hoped it would. It seems like ones we had in the past, with a lesser BTU rating, worked better. It is fairly quiet though, and did come with the window kit so they are positives.

BUZZ BOX

It take's the humidity out which is a great plus, but room temps are mid 70's. So it does work and keeps you inside the house... My #1 complaint is the Extra Buzz this thing does. I can't express how LOUD this this is. The case rattles so terrible that I can't take it anymore. I only bought this as nothing else was available in the club except 6000 btu window units.. I suppose I could rip it all apart and fill it with foam & void warranty, but hopeful they have a window back unit in stock now instead. I even have an anti-fatigue mat under it, but vibs are from the housing. Another concern is its constant starting and stopping, and this will burn the compressor out or its relay. Not enough temp spanning at set temps. I too had to set this on top a shelf/table as exhaust hose is too short. Why do they try and save a buck instead of making it right the 1st time? China earns its reparation of producing JUNK workmanship. There all about building as fast as they can and skip on the quality. Sam's Club to blame as well for not sourcing a better manufacture. I don't mine spending more for quality!

Delonghi is the way to go

I've owned 4 Delonghi Portable AC Units in the last 15 years and each one was amazing at cooling our home. Externally they are easy to clean, and after the warranty expired I cracked them open myself to clean the inside and after 12 years they need it. Delonghi makes great AC units and I was proud to purchase this new unit. Very sleek, thinner then previous modes, love the way the hose attached with this one, the older ones I had to use tape to keep them on. Don't let some of the negative reviews stop you from purchasing, like I said 15 years and we finally had to say goodbye to one of our Delonghi's. Best Portable AC on the market in my humble opinion.

So far it's powerful and quiet!

This is the first portable air conditioner I've purchased. I've always been a window unit guy but we needed something for a pretty large space where the only windows were largely covered by a sofa - we needed something more flexible. I was torn between DeLonghi and Whilpool, but the sleek look of DeLonghi just caught my eye more. Setup was pretty easy. Only complaints were that screwing the hose fittings onto the flexible hose was a bit annoying (reverse threaded) and when locking the window vent into place, the little plastic locking mechanism didn't want to stay in place very well. All-in-all, it probably took me about 25 minutes to unpackage, sort parts, hook things up and have it turned on. I was expecting it to be louder than it is....it's pretty quiet and seems to be plenty powerful. We'll see if it can keep up with keeping things cool for us!
