You won't regret purchasing
This air conditioner is the best! it's very easy to put together and fit in my window perfectly. It isn't difficult operating, cleaning the filters is very easy and draining it as well. It's affordable and helped us get throughout summer pregnancy and when i had my baby.

Buy a different one
Crap, does cool well but has to have water dumped like every other day, I have another one that I've had for 4 months and never had to dump it yet. Dumping is not easy either, have to unplug power and vent, roll outside, and replug everything in. Not worth it at all.

    Easily moved to another location without a hassle!
    I love this portable air conditioner! The only thing I think I would want changed would be to have an extra window kit so that it could moved to a 2nd location without the hassle of having to remove the entire window kit in order to put it in a 2nd location! With a 2nd window kit you'd just have to unsnap the heat exhaust out from the window kit, roll the air conditioner to the 2nd location, snap the heat exhaust in the window kit in the new location and your all set! Turn it on and presto! Cold air in that location which is great if you want AC in your bedroom! No big hassle! Easy Peary!

    Decent for the deal, although not great quality.
    The AC overall cools beautifully! I saw the positive reviews and for the discount price, pretty excited for the deal! Downsides - the AC once reached the cooling temp turns off. So being woken up at night after it turns off and starts again is very startling and I would much prefer it to run constant unless turned off. The instructions are not very clear although this is my second ever portable ac so set up wasn't bad at all. The instructions though- they don't really clarify how to use the timer on the ac. I was hoping to figure it out so the AC would stop randomly turning off throughout the night and back on yet no luck so far. Biggest downside- it is VERY loud and makes clicking / static / loud noises throughout the night. My prior AC was 2x larger and made less loud noises compared to this one. It can be difficult to fall asleep with the sudden random clangs, static, clicks and odd yet very loud noises it makes randomly. Overall- not the worst purchase although a prettier penny is better used compared to this one on something else. The company doesn't have contact information with the warranty so it's pretty much worthless to make any attempt to contact support / return / etc.

    love it
    i love this air conditioner, i live in a two bedroom apartment and it keeps the apartment nice and cool. it didnt make our electricity bill go up too much either basically the same cost to heat the apartment. it was very easy to set up as well. its a lot quieter than a window unit, but its a air conditioner its going to make noise people.

    Not that impressed
    So i have only had it fits a few days but its i dont have good rhings to say about it. Putting it together was not easy. It should have been it It's not a difficult process but I cannot get the hose to stay in place or the pieces to the hose. After I ended up getting it together fiemily I realized how loud it is. It's pretty heavy which is expected I guess. When it comes to cooling my room It does work but not as well as a in window air conditioner. This is my 1st portable air conditioner so I do not know what to expect so I'm not trying to be too Critical but I And not that impress with it.

    what will you pay for freight damage from China?
    It came with the side of it coming apart and looked to be re-packaged. The styrofoam was even broken inside. It seems to work so at a discounted price I will give it a chance with the hotter weather arrival next weekend. The directions are worthless and you're going to have to use some ingenuity to install it.

    Cools a very large room
    So far this air conditioner is cooling my very large room perfectly. The air coming out is very cold, thank goodness because my house is a sweatbox. We have incasement windows but all we needed to do was get plexiglass and tada, perfect.

    Excellent customer service
    Ordered a free shipping protable AC two weeks ago. Received it in 5 days, a week earlier than promised!!! Have used the 5000 btu unit for a week. It works as described on the website. Recommend the product.

    Costway saved my family during the heatwave!!!
    We loved the two we bought so much that we bought three more. The first two arrived before the MASSIVE heat dome hit us in the Pacific Northwest where it reached to 117 degrees at its peak. Our home is a doublewide, 2006 Fleetwood with the vaulted ceilings and believe it or not, we were able to keep the home at 78 degrees F all that week. If we didn't have these AC units, we would NOT have been able to survive. THANK YOU COSTWAY!

    Must have on hot days
    Love this ac unit. Its way smaller than the one Im replacing it with but the old one was about ten years old so makes a difference in what they are able to do now with the size of the units with the same amount of btus. The ac was super simple to install and I recommend it to anyone with limited space, no regular window for a window ac or even an elderly person as once its together all you have to do is put it in the window and clos the window and its done. For me I have a sliding glass door in my bedroom so I had to get an adapter (from Amazon for about $50) totally worth it as now I have ice cold air in my bedroom and the fact that it does not take up a lot of space is impressive for how well it works. Must have for anyone with limited space or a slider in their bedroom like I have.
