COSTWAY Portable Air Conditioner, 8000BTU Ac Unit Spaces up to 230sq.ft, with Remote Control, 24H Timer & Window Venting Kit, Sleep Mode, Suitable for Bedroom, Living Room, Office (8000BTU, Black)

I’m using this in a large (~350 sq. ft.) bedroom that is far away from the home AC unit, and the duct work in our house is terrible, so the temp in our bedroom in the summer is always 4-5 degrees warmer than the rest of the house. We use this portable unit to reduce the temp the rest of the way. Works perfectly, and I don’t wake up at night sweating anymore! I couldn’t say if it would cool the room 100% in the dead heat of the summer, but it’s the perfect supplement when the central AC doesn’t do the full job. The only negative comment is that it was kind of annoying to vent it out the window, and I felt like I needed to supplement the window kit with some weather stripping, weather proofing, and special locks to feel safe and protected from the outside elements. But once I got it set up, I love it!

Makes a huge difference in upstairs room which can sometimes be 10 degrees warmer. Can be a little loud to get used to but then blends in as white noise to fall asleep to. Can set desired room temp like a thermostat. Easy to set up and run.

This air conditioner appears to be well made. My issue was the Vent hose was not long enough and the window guard that fits exhaust peice was too long to fit the window. Allow space around unit when measuring to fit in the room you choose.

Works absolute wonders! Chills the room very well, sometimes a little too well, lol. My bedroom has little insulation as it’s a reformed attic so in the Summer when it’s above 70F outside, the room always feels extremely hot and muggy as all the cool air from the house escapes from the roof of my room. I’ll wake up sweating and have a hard time sleeping during the day (I work third shift). This aircon has been such a wonderful and welcome change. The only thing I will say, make sure to get some duct tape, or a thicker hose, to keep the hose in place on the unit as it started falling out due to the unit kicking out warm air. But other than that, I have no complaints and the unit works very well.

It runs quiet still after several months, of course it took sometime to cool down the temperature as it is for local concentrate air system, but it did a great job to keep the small bedroom cool during the most hot summer.

Dislike the cost of the item that has hardly a few hours on it. Compressor runs a few minutes and then shuts off and on continuously.

It worked ok for the first year, wasn’t even used much, this year, it’s struggling. I just bought a window unit after this heat wave.

I bought this for my bedroom/office. Room is 11 x 11 and houses 2 computers and 4 monitors so it does run warmer than it should. This lil guy was so great out the gate back in the spring when I got it. Unfortunately it is now struggling mightily. Set at 22---celsius I think, which is 72 according to google. I'm sitting right in front of it sweating. No way is my room 72. 82 degrees MAYBE. Which is better than the current 99 outside in TX. Every half hour or so it has a mini heart attack and shudders hard enough to rattle my window/floor. It's not so bad when it doesn't wake me up at night. I really wanted this to be better. But I may be asking too much.

The unit works great, the noise level is a bit high but not terrible(is only really a problem when I am on the phone). Be aware that this unit will pull a lot of moisture out of the air(I connected the included hose and have it continually draining into a bucket that I empty about twice a day). The customer service was wonderful. The shipping company delivered the unit 6 days early and did not bother to tell me it was delivered, so it ended up being stolen. The vendor was very fast to offer to resolve the issue and sent a new one at no charge with very little delay.

For the price paid, it is a good device. Easy to start. Additional accessories are also easy to install (with user manual included). So far for a few days of very hot weather, it has been good at cooling two rooms in the house. It is over a longer period of use that we will see the quality of manufacture of this model. But so far we are satisfied. :-) I make some additions of info on this machine: It works with us from a 120 volt alternating current. I don't know if it would work well on the battery in a caravan vehicle. Additionally, this system is 28 inches tall by 12 wide; so it takes up space. For noise, it is acceptable if it is placed far enough away from where you sleep (we can compare it to the sound of a refrigerator).

We do not have central air in our house, so we set up this unit in our bedroom, and it is a game changer. Super easy to install (no cutting your walls or window frames), and some nights we added an extra blanket because it cooled off the room so nicely! Before this we were sleeping with ice packs in the bed. Complete game changer. Highly recommend. In addition, it is on wheels if you want to move it about the house and cool off another area! Love it!

Like the features, happy with the venting. Most important they cool not just 1 room but that wing of the house.

Plus, as the air cools i barley see condensation forms and drips into drainpipe !
