DuraComfort Portable Air Conditioner 12000 BTU (ASHRAE) / 8000 BTU (SACC) - Compact WiFi-Enabled AC Unit with Remote for Rooms Up to 350 Sq.Ft - Perfect for Bedroom, Office & Small Apartment Cooling

Heyy, so I been living in my basement apartment for a little over 2 years with a fan, and honestly this AC changed the game immensely!! It was easy to install, I did it myself (23yo F) under 40 minutes.. My window is smaller than the panel that is sent out so I cut it down to fit the window, THEN places the fluff/stuffing in the corners around said panel so no air escapes! I didn’t read the manual and it appears I didn’t receive the exact same one as everyone else who reviewed it, but I say that to say I didn’t let it sit for a few hours before powering it on. I turned it right on after setting up and have zero issues so far (day 2) I’ll update this review if anything changes. The only thing is it doesn’t come with a collection plate for the water, and I do get water from both top and bottom ports. But it’s enough to fill a red solo cup!! I also run it on high through the day whether I’m home or not. Today I had to drain it twice, but it’s no hassle. Also the vent wasn’t long enough FOR ME and my window situation, so I stacked it on the styrofoam that it came from until I get a stand for it.
