Title: Nice & Cool
Review: This little AC is a gama Changer for my overheated shop. It faces west and gets full sun all day making it very hot inside. This AC had the shop nice and cool after about an hr and it wasn't on coldest setting.I built a support shelf.for the outside part of the AC in the shop the AC is cooling. Very cool working conditions now.

Title: It's really cool.
Review: It was easy to install with a helper to lift it into the window. It is quiet and quickly cools 500 sq ft. I use a standing floor fan that is 3.5 feet above the floor and a ceiling fan to move the cooled air around. This thing is so powerful it would be more than adequate for a one bedroom apartment. The secret is to have another fan in the room to help disperse the cool and dehumidified air this unit puts out. Make sure you install it correctly with the outside portion sloping down as shown in the directions. My 1600 sq ft house has a central system but this helps reduce the load on that system. Of course Amazon had the best price with free delivery.

Title: Works great!
Review: First the good news. This air conditioner works great. We didn't want to spend the extra money for an 8000 BTU for our 250 square foot room, and we read that the 5000 BTU unit would only cool a room up to 150 square feet. Wrong. This unit totally did the job. It was 97 degrees outside today, and were totally cool in our air-conditioned room.The only reason I took off one star is that I found the installation instructions too hard to follow. I ended up installing the unit based on remembered experience from the past, and from current observation.

Title: P.O.S. Worked for an hour, puffed out a weird smell and stopped working.
Review: Purchased to supplement air in a guest room for a visitor coming during a heat wave. Package arrived on time, the day before our guest's arrival. The package appeared to have already been opened by someone else and resealed, but we installed the unit anyway in a desperate race against time and heat. The unit worked well for about an hour and began cooling the room. We left the room and returned about an hour later to a strange burning smell and a nonworking unit. We checked the circuits and outlets and discovered no issues. The unit just burned up and stopped. We waited several hours for the unit to cool down and tried again, but it did not even turn on. I checked the square footage of our room, and it was less than 150 square feet, so the unit we purchased/installed was the appropriate size for the room. So disappointed! Had to run to Lowes to pick up a more expensive unit at the last minute to keep our guest comfortable. Very disappointed for the hassle but happy we could return it without issue.

Review: Product is cheaplu made considering price. I do like the washable filter option. That being said, days over 25' the unit does not blow very cold air. This unit is also very noisy.

Review: I just took it out of the box and the compressor will not turn on.Noone will answer the call or call me back.Company does not fix their own product and no one will help you.Do not buy this and do not deal with Black + Decker unless you live in USA.
