Works fantastic for my needs but before you purchase please read the following:I use this unit in a 12x16 bedroom size for an office. I did install it in many areas of the house to see where it would function best in accordance with the specification. First, it is not for a living room where it opens up to the kitchen, hall, other rooms unless you only want cool air and only if the weather is in low 80 degrees or less. It won't cool like you want it to. It's just not made for that, and besides, the product description tells you 400 sq. ft. So my advice for you is to research before purchasing any portable air conditioner because every manufacturer will tell you the size of the room it will be coldest (I know, I own two other portable air conditioners, from other manufactures and they are dead on when they tell you the size of room their unit works best for cold air).Second, you must follow the instructions that come with this unit (very simple) or else you are doomed and your unit will not work correctly. It does not tell you in the product description that you must leave at least 1.6 ft. (50cm) space all around the unit, but the instructions that come with it does. I wish I would have known this before I bought it because I almost didn't have the space required. If you don't follow this recommendation, it will run warm air; compressor cuts off every 10 minutes and fan blows warm--there are two vents on each side (right/left) and one in back that need that scope. I hooked it up for a day without the correct space and thought my unit was defective because it was always blowing out warm air, but after I shifted to the correct space needed it worked perfect.All portable air conditions make noise and the 3 different ones I own make somewhat the similar sound. This one is a low humming which I find very soothing but for those of you, who can't bear the slightest sound, you will need to find an alternative solution other than a portable unit, because you won't find silence in a portable unit. The compressor is inside and doesn't hang outside like a window unit; so, you'll never be satisfied with any of this type of unit. I also read reviews from customers dissatisfied with the LED display lights for other similar air conditions. This unit does not have blaring LED lighting but there are display lights which are not that noticeable or bothersome.The window adapter for the exhaust hose (circumference of hose is 19") is 52" long/tall so you can adjust it to whatever size you need for either horizontal or vertical use which seals the window nicely from outside elements and is very thin--3-1/2" wide. It comes with weather strips to insulate even further.I purchased this unit because it is 1/3 smaller than other units; self evaporative system exhausts most of the condensate water minimizing the need to empty the internal bucket; it has a remote control; and it has a timer to set on or off. And to my pleasant surprise, it runs cold air to the point of freezing if you allow it to (but remember only in the allotted space recommended for). Another thing to keep in mind is that I ran this unit in 90 degree weather with very little humidity (west coast).All in all, this unit meets my needs exceptionally well and the following are the desirable features:1. very good air output; lots of volume and pressure2. very cold output; even if you move it to a wide-open living room area; cool air is obtainable3. easy to move around on the coasters that come on the unit4. all the features that are mentioned on the product description are absolutely fabulous; and5. this portable air conditioner is reasonably pricedHIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This Amico Portable Air Condition has served us well since its purchase. Living in Southern California can bring the heat during summer, and this unit has worked admirably in our finished attic - cooling the room to a comfortable temperature in a very short time.The only drawback is its energy consumption. The month it was used showed a considerable - $80 - jump in the electric bill. But at $4 per day (for the 20 days that our guests were in town), that made a usually unusable space livable during a hot summer month, I believe it was a great investment. As an added bonus, the predictable water condensation problem has been nonexistent.

Amico Power 11,000 BTU portable air conditioner works great, cools down our bedroom quick on high, collects very little condensation (about 1 cup every 2 weeks), runs quiet on low and doesn't wake us up while sleeping. Great value with this product priced under $400 with over 10,000 BTU rating. Completely satisfied!
