Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to assemble and works beautifully. Maintenance is very easy (the installation too) the whole process of connecting the tubing for venting and the window kit and the connecting to the machine probably takes about 20 minutes.
The pinguino is a portable air conditioner. It's about as loud as a quieter motel unit, not too bad unless you are a light sleeper. The unit is pretty and it adds to the decor of the room.
The motorized air vent angle on this one is cool in that it can oscillate the direction of the air up and down. When you turn it on, the vent slowly pops up out of the top, which is kind of cool. It works by blowing warm air out through a window vent ... Read More
Weather stripping to attach to the exhaust hose. This helps to give a better seal to your window frame.
Cons
I am sorry to say but this air conditioning really misrepresents the information and cooling properties. Delongi is using deceptive advertising.
Highlights
Quality
It's performance in all three areas is pretty good, and i have always been impressed by the quality of delonghi equipment.
If i had to recommend one of the two to you right now, i'd say go with the least expensive unit because both work about as well... Read More
I'd say that this unit is comparable to the honeywell with the added bonus that it has a slot on top to hold the remote control.
Shipping
The top of the shipping box lifts off, making it much easier to get the heavy unit out.
It is advisable to let the unit sit for at least 6 hours before turning it on, as the possibility exists that it may have been ... Read More
Packaging/appearance
Seeing as how you're going to have the window shut, you can just remove the screen.
It was easy to set up (like, 20 minutes tops— counting time to remove packaging), works great!
Competitiveness
Powerful, cools my much larger ipen concept living room/kitchen area.
It's 4 years old but half the price of a current unit.

The hardest part of putting the venting together is getting the tubing into the end connections
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Please keep in mind that the vent tubing is only about 4 to 5 feet long so it limits your ability to be flexible so to speak with where you can place the machine in the room
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Also please be aware that this machine is over 10 amps so make sure you do not have too many devices on the same circuit which will cause the circuit breaker to trip

The air conditioner cools about 34 of the room

I was expecting it to cool the entire room based on the description but it really covers about 300 square feet so a little disappointing there
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It also has a remote but the remote does not have a digital display so without looking at the machine closely you cannot tell what temperature or setting you have made on the machine
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This kind of defeats the purpose of the remote
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
At least its not loud enough to disturb conversation or listening to the music
