Pros & Cons
Pros
But on low mode it does the job and isn't as loud as all the fans i previously had. This unit is actually quieter than what we had and doesn't vibrate the floor when run in.
Black & decker portable 3-in-1 air conditioner. This is the best portable ac unit i have owned.
Purchased this to replace an ageing one purchased from a diy store over 7 years ago. It really does look stylish with the round vent rather than the usual square vents. Much bigger than the unrealistic dimensions provided in the product description.
Shortest pipe the best as less heat from pipe back in the room before venting. It's handy having a light notifying you when to drain it to avoid leaking. Low humidity to start of with, may be the key to why this machine instantly feels my room and hal... Read More
Bought it specifically for the uk heatwave (july 2022, 40c) did wonders for cooling my home. Literally saved our little newborn from cooking. I truly recommend to anyone who hates heat like me.

Price
Works out around double my daily cost should i run it 24/7.
4 star as it could be quieter but for the price i can’t complain!
Noice is lower than the other makes i have tried.
It would have cost pennies to add this functionality so i have no idea why they didn't do it.
Competitiveness
But, it uses most of the water to recycle and refrigerate during the cooling process, so after a month of daily use, when i did... Read More
Would defo recommend but make sure you get a good price, i paid 299 and now they want £349 can only assume it would go up more.

In the summer with any temperature outside over 20 degrees we noticed a significant increase in the temperature even with opening every window possible

Our initial thought when we unboxed the unit was that it was rather large and has a large hose that needed to be hung out the window that was unsightly
