Just got this today and tried it out. Sharp usually makes good products, I wanted to like this a/c but at best it cools so/so.Styling is sleek, the louvers are nice as air direction can be adjusted (a feature not available on all portable a/c's). Remote control is more robust than most, but at the cost of no real on board controls. Like many televisions today, if you lose the remote- good luck getting it to work the way you want (there's only an on & off button & no on board display).Amazon shows the unit as 9,500 btu's in the title, but then 10,500 in the description. The model is the CV2-P10SX which, according to Sharp- is 10,500 BTU's. Unfortunately it only seems to have the cooling power of a 9000 BTU unit.I've now got three portable A/C's. One is a Haier I bought from Best Buy years ago @9000 BTU's (still running strong), the second is an 11,500 Friedrich and the third is this Sharp. I figured I'd try the Sharp this time b/c it had the air ionizing feature. Ionizers alone can cost $100 so I figured it was worth it. Upon reading the manual I was disappointed to learn the ionizer doesn't work when the unit is in a/c mode. It's either a/c or ionizer. I ran the ionizer for a while and it definitely gave the air that charged up feeling and does seem to neutralize odors (I have an old window that can smell moldy and the smell seemed to dissipate after running the ionizer).The unit arrived quickly from Amazon and came with the flexible vent (which has a larger diameter than most portables), window bracket & even weather stripping (which was nice). The window attachment is different than most as it's a rectangular opening and is made of a few pieces of plastic. When stress is placed on the hose, the plastic pieces tend to separate a bit- causing the flexible hose to fall out. I had to use a small wire clamp to prevent the pieces from separating, but it's still not quite stable & I have to be careful not to put any stress on it.The hose gets very hot during operation which would lead me to believe it's removing a lot of heat- but the air coming out of the unit into the room is only coolish- not really cold. I think perhaps the exhaust doesn't move enough air to allow the unit to cool properly.My 9000 BTU Haier cools better than this (supposedly 10,500) Sharp and my 11,500 Friedrich cools MUCH better than both of them. Of the three, however, the Sharp is the most quiet. Given the choice to do this purchase over again, I'd go for another Friedrich.Still this is only the first day with the Sharp, if anything changes I'll post an update.

It did a great job right out of the box and was fairly easy to set up.I have only had it a little over a month so I could not give it 5 stars. I will have to see how it holds up over time.But for now it does the job I bought it for.It cools the downstairs portion of my home kitchen,diningroom and livingroom not sure of the square footage.The unit is quiet for its size and looks pretty good.There were units that were a little less money but I know people who bought those units and sent them back because of noise and perfomance.I have had luck with Sharp products and so for this one is no exception.

People seem to be complaining about the unit not being Strong or Cold enough, but to be honest, I like that its not Ice Cold.Really cold Air Conditioners tend to dry out my throat and can actually make you sick if you are constantly near the AC.This one is just the right temp and also you have to realize that for the "very quiet operation" you have to sacrifice some "heavy power".Pros:Quiet (Even less than some window units)Very SolidCool modern lookEasy to setupNo more draining, especially for dry western states.Cons:Maybe too large for some people & Quite heavyWhen the fan is on low I can hear a buzzing sounds that seems to go away after a few mintues.This is the ION generator which automatically turns on when in fan mode and wish there was an OFF for the ION deal.Overall great AC unit that should last a very long time.Enjoy! (and newegg sells it for $399 + free shipping)
