Ordered unit from Amazon on 7-30-24. Got it on 8-2-24. Fast. Is it a 5000 btu, 5100 btu or a 5050 btu as the placard says? It came in a very well packaged box inside of an Amazon box that was too big and had no packing to keep the A/C box from moving around. The A/C box was marked with an "UP" arrow, this side up, but was upside down in the Amazon box. I unpacked it, righted it and waited 24 hours to see if it cooled before installing it in the window. It ran, got cold, but the compressor has a whine one can hear for a long distance. It had been dropped on the left rear corner bending it and jarring a screw loose in the top center of the unit housing. Good thing it had been packaged well in its box or the damage could have been worse. The best I can tell the coils, lines, fan blades and such are not making contact with the case. After a bit of running on low cool, the unit started a pinging noise as described in the manual. It was water rising in the pan and the condenser fan was picking it up and splashing it against the right side of the louvers and outside the unit. The manual states there is a small rubber plug under the unit. Removing the plug will drain the pan of water stopping the pinging and splatter. However, the unit will not be as efficient. It won't cool as well, because the splatter helps cool the condenser coil. If that is true, the compressor should also run cooler with the splatter, but its life span might be shorter by removing the plug. This is not the way to design a cooling system. If your house is wood siding, that splatter will take a toll on it. The unit has cooling louvers to direct the cool air right and left. There is no means to direct the cool air up away from the incoming warmer air below the cool air vent. I am using this unit as climate control for a storage room. I'm not pointing fingers, but Amazon could have labeled "Fragile, This Side Up" on its box and put in packing to keep the A/C box from moving around. Why did I buy this unit? The price was low, and I have a GE 5050 K btu unit made in 2013 that is still running fine. Manufactures were using a non-flammable, R22 or the like back then and the units didn't need water splash to help them cool properly. I should have spent a few more dollars and got better unit. Except for the above, the unit is fine for my purpose. I would not want it in a bedroom or any lived in space. If it lasts a season or two, I'll be surprised. Just my two cents.

Trying to review 6000 btu unit and Amazon keeps redirecting me to the older 5000BTU unit I bought previously to edit it. Why? they are not the same? I bought the "used/return" version of the 6000 btu electronic control unit for $70 off the new price. One star to Amazon for sending me an "acceptable" unit and it's not acceptable. Shipped it in a plain box with no packing so arrived with dents. Also came with no intallation kit, no remote or instructions. Not acceptable guys. Since I needed an air conditioner and since I didn't feel like hauling it back to UPS and since I don't like the fan fold side extensions, I kept it though I wish now I had sent it back and made them eat the freight both ways. As for the unit itself it"s pretty good. Keeps the bedroom at 68 degrees and the rest of the 1400sf house at 75 to 76 degrees. Runs at around 505 to 514 watts putting out 42 to 48 degree air. Dislikes: the ECO mode shuts off the unit when it reaches 68 degree set point and then doesn't restart even though the temp gets above 73 or higher. Starts immediately when switched to Cool mode. On low speed the fan is sort of loud and high pitched like its running on high when it's not. I would probably buy it again at the discounted price. As for the 5100 btu model-- I bought it to put in our bedroom as my girlfriend likes it 70 degrees while I am comfortable in 78 degrees. It's too small for the job. I have to shut the bedroom door to keep it at 70 degrees which means the central unit still comes on to keep the rest of the house at 76. I bought a "used" unit for $117. It appears to have come in original box unopened, but there was a hole punched in one side of the box and the rear coil had a flattened area on the fins about 1" x 4". I straighted the fins with a pocket knife (never had much luck with fin combs) and installed the unit with no problems. The unit runs at 390 to 460 watts which is less than previous similar units which usually run at 460 and up. It runs very quietly on low. The main beef with this one is the outlet vent doesn't have up and down vane adjustment--just side to side. Also, the new 6000 btu unit seems to put out a lot more cold air for another 60 watts or so I would probable go the the 6000btu minimum in the future. I may swap the units out to see if the smaller unit will do better in the smaller bedroom/house.

I had a buddy help me install it, as the window kit didn't fit very well into the window and we had to make some "adjustments", due to the instructions not being very helpful. This is a basic unit, no bells 'n whistles. It has dials, which I thought would help my mom understand versus digital, but the resistance is very tough to twist the dials, not for an elderly person. On the high fan settings, it's very loud and here's the rub of it all.... the unit is designed to sit flat for some unbelievably bad reason. That makes the fan blades rub against the casing, making the sound worse. You need to start the fan on high to create resistance for an ongoing low setting. You need to tip it at least a -10° angle to allow the condensation (water) to run out of the unit. It has a tray that keeps the water in, too. It almost seems like it's designed to fail, keeping water in to short out circuits. My buddy and I made it work, but you definitely need two people to install it to do so. Now, the good things... It went into a small bedroom and it cools it down from a very hot room to a cool room in a couple of hours with the door closed. My mom is a sound sleeper, so thankfully the sound doesn't keep her from sleeping. I saved a whopping $28 for picking the black color. I gave it four stars for the bad design, not allowing the condensation to leave the unit. If you don't want it to fail quickly, you're going to HAVE to tip it to allow the condensation to run out or maybe you can find a tray to fit it without a containing lip. That's just how it is, you can't change physics.

We had central ac in our home- We actually bought this as a back up -why? We used to lose power a lot 3 times for multiple days - so we had purchased a few of those Lipo 4 power supplies- and I had a small generator- anyway the idea was buy a small air conditioner and cool one room like the bedroom if power went out - of course it never went out for multiple days since we bought the unit. So we never used it in our home. However- Our neighbor had a 20,000 btu unit that cooled their downstairs area installed in the wall that went bad - it was under warranty and for some reason it couldn’t be repaired- and a replacement unit would not fit - so there was a delay in this process. So being a nice neighbor I offered them this unit to put in the living room window till things were fixed etc. This unit did an unbelievable job keeping the living room and adjoining kitchen area cool in June/July/August in NJ by the way. They had a small house but that area was much larger than a 5000 btu should handle but it did. - We actually ended up selling our house and moving before our neighbors sorted out their repairs on the old unit - so we never asked me it back. Anyway the bottom line is I am not an air conditioner expert - but I recommend this one !!
