Pros & Cons
Pros
Plexiglass was used for the entire window and a hole was cut to vent the unit. I also recommend using aluminum foil tape for the window slider kit. Just make sure there's no kinks in the exhaust tube and you should be all set.
It's a little loud but no worse than a box fan on high, which is what i was using before getting this. It's on ceramic tile and is quieter than the room fan. Way quieter then my old a/c for sure.
With a few cuts in the sealing material, it now works. Nit a big deal. The tape works just fine.
Cons
That's just incredibly backward. That's on me. Incredibly frustrating" "waste of money. Dont waste your time. At first. Nothing more" "that definitely works not this machine" "it cannot be used in this way.
The window slider kit is narrower than the exhaust cylinder. Takes forever to cool down my 350sqft room. Once cooled and i turn it off to save money it’s hot in no time. Completely pointless to keep cooling the room.
The unit is extremely noisy. Every time the compressor turns on it sounds like you are in a bowling alley. First time i plug it in to a 120v grounded outlet (which should work with the unit) i hear three beeps come from the unit.
Highlights
Quality

I would say this was a bit overpriced for what it offers.
This really did not work as well as i hoped for the price
Shipping
It arrived a day early, which is great because we are in a heatwave.
While i did have to wait almost a week and a half for it to be shipped to me (it was in the beginning of a huge heatwave) this ... Read More
Also, they said it would arrive between july 1-7, mine arrived on july 2 and it was shipped from iowa.
We had a defective unit, but customer service was very responsive and helped us get a replacement quickly.
Packaging/appearance
I will return the old unit in the packaging that the new unit arrives in.
The drain tube was broken on this unit when i unpacked it.
Competitiveness
We tried other purifiers before the cuisinart but the cuisinart seems to be more powerful at clearing the air quickly and compl... Read More
I have a similar but older black and decker unit in another room.

Compared with that one this unit seems to provide less cooling is significantly noisier and something i remembered today when i got it out again for this year’s heat wave the connections between the unit the hose and the window piece are very frustrating they don’t seem to fit together well
