HOMCOM 9000 BTU Air Conditioning Unit, 3-in-1 Portable Air Conditioner, Dehumidifier, Cooling Fan with Remote Control, Digital Display, 2 Speeds, 24H Timer, Window Venting Kit, 18m²

I bit the bullet on getting a portable aircon and I should have bitten it earlier, because it has made such a difference. The noise level isn't too bad. The cooling is very efficient. It was a bit of a faff getting the hose attached, but that was down to my poor motor coordination skills more than anything else. It cooled down my living room (4th floor of an apartment building) quite quickly. I like that it's on wheels, so you can move it around if needed. The cooling vents are adjustable too, so you can direct the cold air flow. The window vent that it comes with is only suitable for sliding or sash windows: I used the cardboard from the box it came in, and the vent as a template to make a vent hole, and taped it to my tilt-open window frame and it worked a treat. Remote control is very useful and useable, and even came with the batteries. I like that it works as an air conditioner, a simple cooling fan, or a dehumidifier, so it's versatile. I took a gamble on this, because the brand was unfamiliar, and I didn't have a large budget, but this was a good buy and was worth the money. If the price maintains, I might get another one for the bedroom. Do bear in mind that this is *heavy* -- I did struggle to get it up the stairs on my own, but I am not very strong, so ymmv.

This unit is functioning well. I am suprised how cool it gets. When the refrigeration kicks in at the start it is slightly noisey which is expected. Good thing is it only lasts a few minutes then its running cool and quite. As you can see from the pictures I have modified the window adapter kit that came with it to vent through the living room door which was the most convenient exhaust opening for my use case. I just had to remove the letterbox to expose the hole and a bit of craftiness made it all come together nicely. Only downside for me is that it blows sideways (left side from the front) and the lowest fan speed is still high for me. So a little noisey and overpowered for my taste, however its more the fact that it blows strongly towards where I am sitting even though its oriented at 90 degrees from me. Maybe I will put a plastic gaurd on one side to block it a little.

Easy to use, worked well but my wife said too noisy. It didn't have time to quieten down as it cooled the air. (Same in the car - can't wait for the Aircon to work, has to open her window.) So it had to go back. 😥.

This does exactly what it's meant to. 16 degrees is the lowest temperature & in a smaller room within about 25/30 minutes it's very cold. The down side is that it is quite noisy on the high setting. I've had it on all night in the bedroom to sleep during a heatwave & there is a night mode which turns off all the lights & you can set it to automatically shut off. I got used to the noise & I'd rather be able to sleep in a cool room than sweating & not being able to sleep.

This unit was so disappointing - after unpacking the unit, carrying it carefully upstairs and placing it in my room ive had the unit on all day And whether it is set to the fan mode or the cool mode, it just blows out hot air despite being on the lowest possible temperature which is 16°. I can only assume that my unit must be broken?! I have contacted the seller asking to return the unit only to be told I have to post it back to them at my own cost?! The unit is either faulty or these are just terrible air-conditioning units that do not cool. This feels no different to my Dyson fan. Even though I thought the BTU was fairly decent, this would not cool a large room if it could cool!! do not waste your money on this unit.

The media could not be loaded. I was dubious because very few reviews and so cheap, but glad I took the risk. I was also put off by the 3-6 day delivery as it would come at the end of a hot spell - so I was so pleased when it came in less than 48 hours. I had also read reviews for more expensive models and none guaranteed fresh, cold air and noise levels unlike an engine room.I wanted a cheaper air con for my teens bedroom, not knowing if he would tolerate the noise or I'd be wasting money. I'd already purchased 2 of a more expensive model for my bedroom and the living room last year - but the price then went up by £130 which is a lot. 😮 My son has asthma, allergies and his cats litter box is in his room - his room now smells so fresh and is cool, not hot, humid and stuffy.The machine is compact, slightly heavy but on wheels. It was just as easy to set up as my others. The noise is not too bad - literally the same as my more expensive ones - I can hear the TV fine - you have a choice of speed - the high is a noisier more powerful blast, but the quieter low setting does just as good a job and is a gentler blast, fresh, cool or arctic air. Obvs the further away from your bed, settee, etc, the less noisier an air con unit will be - but they are so much better than fans blowing warm/hot air around - the large floor fan I had previously sounded like a plane engine👍🏽The hose is out of the window (I've mastered my own quick, cheap window kit with velcro strips and a shower curtain from the £1 shop as my top windows open outwards). I did wrap duct tape around the hose end fixed to the air con, having read the review about the hose popping out - and then it happening to me - but it was when I turned the position of the unit forgetting a hose is attached. 🤦🏽‍♀️This is just as good as the more expensive brands that I have bought at an exceptionally low price, so will defo recommend to anyone who thinks that cheaper means it's going to be rubbish - it's the same as my 2 £400 units.Fingers crossed no problems will pop up. ✌🏽

Sound isn't the worst once the rooms cool and the condenser calms down. I'm a light sleeper and can sleep through the night with this running.Pulling around 800W at full tilt. 130 with the fan only. Nice, clean, cool air all day.
