Good air conditioning unit for cooling a room.

I have 2 of these units and an older DeLonghi. I live in Florida and initially purchased the first 1 to have in case my central air conditioner went out. That older unit was not enough, so I purchased this unit in June 2021. My central Air conditioning is old and it finally died in August 2021. I set-up up my 2 units and quickly realized I needed another for my 1100 SF home. I have 1 in the main living area, 1 in the room that houses my parrots, and 1 in my bedroom. Using 3 of these does cool the house down to a good temperature and buys me time to save to purchase another central A/C unit. This unit cools well, however, I have to empty the tank often. I called DeLonghi and they said the high humidity in Florida is the reason that I have to empty the tank so often. The tank spout is very low on the unit. I put a paper bowl under it to empty it. When the temperatures were in the mid 90's, the AC units did a good job cooling my home. Now that the outside temperatures are in the mid to high 80's, the AC units have no trouble keeping up. Just know that this unit is designed to cool individual rooms, not a home. If I could change anything on this unit it would be 2 things. Maybe have an water tank that is easier to empty rather then the low short spout. The other is the window kit. The exhaust hose does not stay in the unit very well. I used packing tape to help hold it. There has to be a way the exhaust hose could snap-in securely on the unit.

Not recommend for Texas heat

We had terrible heat in Texas this year. I had all 3 units stop working during JULY n August 2022. They made a horrible bang n all these plastics pieces came flying out of the exhaust. . On all three units, One at a time. None of my units thermostats were set on high because of electric costs,for me. I read that Whitners portable units have dual exhausts because the heat is tremendous inside the units. I think DeLongi should not use such flimsy plastic blades on the humidifiers and the exhaust system needs an updated version like Whitners portables. Sams sells these products also.

Great so far

I bought this a week ago due to my central ac unit running all day and not cooling the house causing an extremely high light bill. It was very easy to install & so far I love it. I put this in my living room and a window unit in each other room and I keep the central ac off and just run these all day & I have noticed a decrease in the daily usage for my light bill. It is not that loud either and the fact that it has a remote is pretty nice. Also the color compliments my furniture and decor in the living room :)

Lifesaver

Used this during 100 degree week. Put on “78” and room feels very comfortable. We don't have an open floor plan but entryways between three main rooms are wide & this keeps them all comfortable. (About 700 sq Ft). Hose extendable to almost 5'. We have it on a 20 amp breaker with TV/cable box/modem and it's fine.

Love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this Pinguino DeLuxe portable air conditioner. I do competition bbq cookoffs and in the summer it gets crazy hot here in Texas. I've used it for numerous events and it has been a lifesaver. I absolutely recommend this to anyone that wants a portable air conditioner that feels like a wall unit. Cold air is not a issue. Love it

Amazing Portable Air Conditioner Unit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a new air conditioner unit for one room in my house where the air flow from my AC doesn't work well and when I saw this new unit from Delonghi I decided to try it out. This deluxe unit absolutely blew me away with how cool the air blew in my home office. It was super easy to install and I love having a remote where I can decide the air temperature I like. It's also nice because I like my home office cooler than the rest of the house while I'm working during the day but I don't want to pay the electricity fees to make my whole house cold when I'm not in the other rooms. This portable unit has been a god-send and has helped me cut down on energy cost and made my life happier. I highly recommend!

A work horse

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Pinguino DeLuxe unit sure does pack a punch. If you have a room that you need to cool down temporarily or just give your normal unit a boost in the summer, this unit will do the trick. It is easy to setup and use and will have you cooled down before you know it.

like a breeze

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a beauty this is a powerful air conditioners that's portable and fairly easy to set up. Really love the look and feel of the air conditioners and not to mention how cool it makes the room on a hot summer day. Great product, very big packaging and nicely made. The controls are easy to use and cools the room really quickly. I'm surprised how well this works and what a savings on my electric bill.

Works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this to set up in our bedroom that is always running hotter than the rest of the house. The portable air conditioner is fast and easy to set up. It is able to cool our fairly large room quickly and is quieter than I was expecting.
