As noted by a previous reviewer, this unit shuts down its air conditioning function when the condensate reservoir fills up. The unit then goes into fan mode. To get air conditioning back, the user empties the reservoir using a little, almost-flat plastic pan (LAF pan) that, even with its low sides, just barely fits below the reservoir exit, which, itself, is situated under the heat exhaust hose and just a little above the floor. If you're on a rug, the reservoir exit has even less clearance, or none. In addition to the LAF pan, you must also bring a pail to the job, so you can repeatedly empty the LAF pan into the pail. Of course, if you tip the LAF pan slightly on its way to the pail, you spill some of its contents onto your floor or rug in the process.This is a case of abominable engineering---design that wastes your time and patience each day you use the "air conditioner." You spend time on your knees moving water from the very bottom of the unit to a pail. Then you spend more time mopping up what you've spilled in the process.If there is no other way for you to exist than with this portable unit, you may want to design a five- or six-inch-high pedestal that holds the unit securely and allows you to place a bigger emptying vessel below the reservoir exit. (About half a gallon would be good.)Better is to rethink the buying decision and return the unit.

This unit works great. The only part I agree with on the other reviews is the drain hole. It's in a terrible place but to solve that I simply put it on a small table that was about 18" high and put a 5 gallon bucket under it for drainage. It takes about a day for the bucket to fill up and was my saving grace last summer during a heat wave. It was exactly what we needed and worded great.

Soleus pe2-10r-32 review. PLEASE NOTE: I bought this for $299 plus tax in box, and brand new at Menards hardware store on 5-11-11. I COMPLETELY AGREE with Mr. Griffiths and Koqn. This unit has hardly any dehumidifying ability. I WAS using it in the bedroom, and it hardly cools at all. It is also loud, but I think that goes with the territory of a portable, because the compressor, and motor are on the inside of your house, instead of outside the window. However I TOTALLY RECOMMEND their window units. I have a 12,000 soleus, and it reduces humidity in my 12 X 22 X 7' high front room a lot. It will reduce it from 70% on a bad, muggy day to about 40% in just a couple hours. I am going to take this back, get another 12,000 and put that in my bedroom window. Not much else to say except I would like to thank Soleus for helping me to a great WORK OUT while hauling it up and down the steps.
