A019K A019K-06KR Air Conditioner, 10000BTU, White

I was skeptical about replacing my window air unit with a portable unit. I was worried that it would take up too much space on the floor. However, the unit is very compact and fits nicely in my room. It blows cold and is quiet. Very easy to set up.

It took me 20 minutes to set it up, but that mainly because I am an idiot and kept letting the locking mechanism get stuck underneath where it should have gone. I bet this would take no longer than 10 minutes to set up regularly.The fact it cools down to 61F is a Godsend for me, who lives in Arizona. 110F is hard to afford for the entire house to be cooled, but just my room and my office? That's all I need, and this works perfect for that.The remote is great to have, easy to turn off or on, change the temp, and there's a timer function too, but I probably won't use it too much.For it's price point, I would definitely say this is worth it. Showed up 6 days early too, saving me a few hot days~

Ineffective:I got the 10,000 BTU unit which claims to be able to cool up to 450 sq ft. This thing is unable to cool my 144 sq ft bedroom. I had it on max cooling settings (61F + Hi-fan) for 4 hours straight and my room is still above 85 degrees. I am still sweating from how hot my room is. I have to stand directly in front of the fan in order to feel any cooling.Inefficient:Massive amounts of heat leak out of the heat pipe. I was wondering why I kept feeling waves of hot air when I moved around the room. It's because of the radiating heat from the pipe. I tried covering the pipe with aluminum foil which helped a bit. But come on, this amount of heat leakage is insane. You're essentially heating and cooling at the same time.Noisy:The product listing description is blatantly lying about 52db. Imagine the booming hum of those old refrigerators. It's that for almost every setting. It's either loud or very loud.Deserves at least 1-star for its decently easy setup and working remote.I have no idea how this product is getting 5-star reviews. It is failing to do exactly its purpose. Please review this product honestly and critically so it helps other shoppers.

Ice cold air

Like the title says, it does what it's supposed to do! Works great, setup was easy and it cools very well. Only took about 20 minutes to cool to 70 from 95. The only reason I took a star off, was because the drainage is annoying and I had to rig it so I didn't have to constantly dump a bucket of water out. Remote control is a plus and works just fine but seems cheap and lightweight but that's not a big deal. At any rate, great product!

We live in stifling hot Arizona. I have central air, but it can use some help in my south facing rooms that also get heated by the direct sunlight. My master bedroom is one of these rooms. In July when daily temps are 110 or more, my central air struggles to keep the house at 80. When we go to bed, our room is often still up at 82 or more. While I would love to be able to get an energy audit and a newer and more efficient HVAC unit, that's not in our financial cards right now. So, I supplemented the A/C in our room with this portable unit. Even though our room is within the square footage quoted, it also seems to struggle against the intense heat and sunlight.The even bigger issue is the air exhaust hose fits poorly on both ends - the window vent and the attachment to the unit. The hose pops off repeatedly, pouring hot exhaust back into the room. Even when it stays attached for a few hours at a time, the hose radiates heat back into the room and is warm, almost hot to the touch. So much, that I had to order an exhaust hose insulating wrap. This helps, but the weight of the wrap makes the hose fall off the connections to the unit and the window vent even more often. To address this, I taped the connections, but my household packing tape dried up from the heat and the hose started falling off again. So, now I have a velcro strap around it and I've ordered special heat resistent HVAC tape to jerryrig in place an exhaust hose that should have been better designed to stay connected in the first place!Even if this A/C unit was fantastic (I would say it's average), the hose issue is frustrating enough for me to recommend looking for some better option. My opinion is its a poor value as is, but could be a good value if the exhaust hose was better designed.

After looking and looking for a portable unit, I had it narrowed down between this one, Coolbus and 2 others. I choose this one for the fact it was much smaller than the other bulky ones and kicked out 10,000 BTUs and less expensive than the others. Took a shot and chose it and very glad I did!This unit when arrived was a perfect size and not so heavy to pick up like so many of the others. It really blows out some nice cold air where you can actually feel it 20' away not a joke! I'm sold! My only critique would be 1 extra panel for the window and some weather strip. I Had to go out and buy some. I wonder if they have panels for sliding glass doors, that's where I want to put it because my one window is so high up, I had to stack it on some boxes. So, all in all well worth the purchase, Happy Customer.

When I bought this air conditioner I was a little afraid it would not do the job. I have a 10 by 20 foot room attached to a travel trailer. It is where we spend the majority of our home time. The tv and my desk are in it and in the summer, which we are beginning to enter, the room can get extremely hot and uncomfortable. I unpacked the unit and set it up according to the instructions. It was fairly easy to do. I turned it on and to my surprise very cool air started coming out. Within a few minutes the room started to cool down and become quite comfortable. It has been over a month now and I can say this has been one of my best purchases from Amazon. We love the air conditioner and would recommend it to anyone who has a room or two that need to be cooled down. We've already has very hot days and the room has always stayed quite cool. We love it.
