when the a/c goes, these come out till repair man can get here. We have a single hose Hisense that we got from lowes that cost double of this 2 hose. Both are same style and can be programmed/sync using wifi app. Comparing both - the 2 hose seems to work better with cooling. The 2 hose is much quieter. Kindof sounds like lawnmower being used at neighbors house. vs Single hose is much louder having to turn tv way up to hear over a/c.. You DO NOT have to drain these. Which is huge bonus for me. Might still try to get another 2 hose to use in tv room and put the loud single hose in another room. All in all this was a good purchase. when a/c goes out these do work well. my renewed amazon 2 hose did come with window kit and hoses as stated in description. I'm happy with these and staying cool until repair man can get parts to fix my central a/c. Also during power outages I can hook into my Ecoflow solar power battery generator and still stay cool. win win!!

Arrived in good and working condition

I bought is portable Hisense unit for contingency purposes if my A/C were to go out. I tried it with the house A/C working and it could only get my properly sized 350 sq.ft room temperature about 8-10 degrees cooler than normal house A/C or about 71 degrees. This made me doubt its cooling capacity on it's own, even though it was putting out plenty of cold air.Well, our house A/C went out last week for 36 hours before it was repaired. This A/C did a great job and got the room down to 71, but this time on it's own with outside temps in the mid-high 80's. Didn't think it would do it, but it did. Also very quiet and never had to drain condensation tubes, even though we live in high humidity on the Gulf Coast.

Easy to use and move around.Not to noisy 👏👏👍

1. Initial thoughtsThe unit came packaged as if its packaged brand new. This was extremely pleasing as I did by the unit as a refurbished unit on sale. But from my understanding, lotta units that are sold as refurbished could practically be a scratch and dent return or maybe the box was damaged. Whatever the case is, I trust Amazon sell me a good product and they usually follow through pretty well with obvious exceptions to the rule here and there. The unit is a little bit heavy, but any normal woman man of stature could be able to pick this up pretty easily.2. SetupSet up is decently easy if you understand really anything mechanically. The directions are pretty good, and clear on what/ what not to do. You may have to finagle the window, slat a little bit to get it to seal correctly, but it does come with foam and beetle tape to ensure you have an airtight seal. Quite literally is “plug-in play.”3. Usage and performance.I am in south Florida on the beach. The climate that I’m in is extremely taxing on anything that has to do of cooling such as refrigeration or air conditioning. Normally, the humidity index is around 60 to 70% with an exterior temperature of 95° in the shade. This unit performs extremely well with all that being said and done. Its quiet, and very high-performance and handling heat thermal load.4. Have a real big question my power billobviously, the reason not most people would probably buy one of these either to help with cooling because it’s just hot as heck or because they want to save some money on the power bill instead of running their central air at all times. My power bill went from average of $11 per day down to $5.30 it immediately within the first day of using this unit to call my master bedroom down at nighttime down to 73 to 72° F. This is also running this unit on fan speed high, MODE -COOL. I do believe it’d be a lot more efficient and save you even more power if I was to run it at 74° fan speed on automatic and mode on automatic. Our consumption is somewheres around 400-500w/hr. This is only a FRACTION of what my central air conditioning uses (6,500w/hr.) obviously a split unit or a window unit with the same inverter technology, such as the Midea-U Will be even more efficient than this. But the reality is that it’s going to be a lot more expensive to buy/ install initially. For a four AC that is sub $200, dual tube, and digital inverter scroll compressor… i’m very impressed and very happy.5. The summaryI would buy this again. This is a great unit to save you power and really icebox your room out. This unit is cheap quiet very powerful and very efficient.There will always be more efficient alternatives, but in reality, it’s not by much. At least at this point, not enough to offset the cost of buying an entire split unit and then paying someone to install it and then paying someone to wire it up. If you want to save on power, this will cut your power bill in half as long as you don’t run your central air. My Central air conditioner is set at 78F at night.

I matched this A/C unit to the associated room size. and It does not matter what temp. it is outside, the unit brings the room temperature, what desired temperature it is set at. I purchased it for my guest room out of necessity due to sideways sliding window. Nice fit, but condensation hoses have to be manager. prior to ant use, however that is what was expected. So, so for it works awesome. we only use the included remote control. for these conditions it was a good buy with great functionality.

Bounces from 450 watts to 550 watts to maintain the temperature in a 15x11 room.The Midea window unit will do this with 100 watts.

Item showed up in Like New condition. Works like a new unit. I'm impressed with the functionality and cooling power and very quiet Not sure of the reliability, but I have high hopes.
