After enduring five hot summers in my new place, I finally decided to get a portable room air conditioner to help beat the heat.After a little bit of searching, I settled upon this Sharp unit. I liked its clean styling and the easy installation diagrams it featured on the outside of the box. The $50 instant rebate offered at the time also helped -- a lot.The unit comes with various panels to aid in the outside venting installation. The 5" diameter flexible hose seemed kind of g-normous coming out of the box. But its semi-rigid construction has a built in screw-like segmentation - which makes it easy to hand twist the hose into the a) the unit itself and b) into the window adapter - no tools required. How cool is that?It took me about 20 minutes to install the window adapter and frame into my outside window (with just a bit of drilling and screwing).But when I turned the unit on - I couldn't believe 1) how quiet the unit was and 2) how really cold the air was coming out of it. Halleluiah!My two cats watched curiously as I set the unit up. But they both managed to find favorite spots - downwind - which have now become their preferred nesting places during the day. Who says cats are dumb?The a/c vents on the front seemed small at first. But they open automatically (to help keep the unit clean) - and their limited size - actually helps to increase the speed of the air flow for greater projection.I've closed the doors to all of my other rooms - to confine the cool air to the kitchen/dining room and living room. I have no idea how close this area comes to the suggested 400 square foot maximum. My place has built-in air-conditioning, but I'm really looking forward to seeing if I can do without it for the entire summer.After living with a myriad of room fans - and even an indoor dehumidifier (which was a lot louder and vented its own heat out of the back) - I can already tell this is shaping up to be the most comfortable summer I've yet to experience.The Sharp portable a/c comes with a hand remote - which is used to control the settings. There is only a power switch and some indicator lights on the unit itself. I use the automatic control - to set a desired temperature - and the unit does the rest. Also, when the programmed temperature is reached - the unit goes to a reduced output mode - with a bit of cool air still coming out. Nice.But even when the unit is running - it is still a lot quieter than my numerous tower fans and my old room dehumidifier. It's also much, much quieter than my dishwasher. And almost as quiet as my refrigerator when it's going.I also went outside to see how much air flow was coming out - and it was surprisingly quite a lot. And the exhaust temperature was fairly warm - which indicated to me how much of a heat transfer was actually taking place. Nice.Since I use my dining table as my desk - when I work at home - having the Sharp portable a/c just yards away makes me as cool as I've always wanted to be - year `round.Will my overall energy bill go down by having this new Sharp portable a/c unit? I can't see why not - since I'm not cooling my entire place. However, only time will tell.For now - I couldn't be happier - or more comfortable. I think it's shaping up - to be a really cool summer. If you can afford the up-front cost - it's worth it. Please, don't miss out.

Have you ever purchased something that turned out to be even better than you expected? Of course. Well that's the feeling I have with this quiet and powerful little dynamo. First, rather than repeat the exceptional lead review by Aaryanna, one which echoes my sentiments to a tee, I will add to her exposition by explaining the title of my review. PlasmaClusters! Who knew? Aaryanna had so much to say about the A/C's features she was too tired to talk about the ions. All I wanted was a sturdy and reliable portable A/C for my bedroom. I live in the San Fernando Valley of So. California and right about June 20th to July 1st when the temperature hits 95F for the first time, the daytime temps will seldom dip below 88 again until about, um I don't know, Labor Day. Night temps will mostly stay above 80F and can average 85F for a week at a time. I have a one bedroom apartment with the unit's own built-in wall air-conditioner in the living room only. Last year on the hottest nights I'd set up a three fan series starting at the air-conditioner with a second fan midway to my back bedroom and the final fan around the small corner leading into the bedroom itself. As you might imagine, this jury-rigged little setup was not only inefficient, but required me to run the wall A/C at full blast all night to get even four or five degrees of relief. Not cheap! You can imagine from Aaryanna's review, this A/C marvel is just what the doctor ordered. Now I wonder what took me so long.What I didn't expect was the patented Sharp Ion Generator. What kind of of little doodad could this be? Fries with that double cheeseburger sir? Just Google Plasmaclusters, wow! This is no gimmick, hence the patent! There are pretty expensive Sharp Ion Generator units sold all over the world that do only one thing and very well at that. They scrub your air of harmful microbes, dirt, and pesky viruses in a patented way that has little to do with all of the other ideas you may have had about ion air cleaning machines. Are you ready for this? There is a "REFRESHER" function which when activated will cleanse the odors of any garments you choose to place in front of the unit, including simply placing the unit in front of your closet and de-odorizing your entire wardrobe. I won't bore you with particulars, that's what Google is for. Check it out.So, I've got a great air conditioner, a great dehumidifier, a great room air venter, and a first class sleep mode no louder than a good frig. But who knew it was going to be one of the healthiest things I've ever had? I would have paid the same money for the A/C qualities alone. It's as if they threw in the Ion Generator out of their concern for my health! Who knew???

Pros:1. The unit showed up in two days!2. Easy installation.3. Cools effectively.Cons:1. I live in California and the weather has been quite warm. The unit's water tank fills up in 2-3 hours which automatically turns air conditioner off. To further compound my challenges with the unit, the only means to drain the water tank is wheel the entire unit outside. This is not an easy task due to the size of the unit. I would have expected a removable water tank at a minimum. Even better, would be a drain hose or other means to remove the water from the unit allowing it to run for longer periods of time required to allow this unit to cool the room. All in all, unless I am open to wheeling the unit outside several times a night to drain the water tank, this unit is ineffective for my requirements. The support line, although I received conflicting responses, indicated I can attach a hose to the water tank drain allowing me to drain the water tank either outside or to an indoor drain.
