I'm coming up on the second season of hard use. I have it in the bedroom and at night this thing will chill you out. During the day (I work nights) we get full sun and it still keeps you about 73 deg. If temps outside reach 90+ it'll keep you about 75. I use it in conjuction with old central air unit that will keep downstairs nice but once you get above the first floor good luck. This runs almost 24 hours a day during 7 months and all you have to do is vacuum the back (cooling fins) and vacuum the front filter (slides out). You never have to drain (I do after winter sets in). I liked ours so much I bought a second for the 3rd floor. As far as noise...you know it's there but like anything else you get used to it and can tune it out. The only bad thing about this is I think the portables are a little more than the window units and don't cool as much but they aren't "portable" and can be rolled into a closet or extra room. The set-up on these is considerably easier also: open window, add insert, duct tape insert into window and you're ready to rock. Another bad is that if you loose the remote or the batteries go (over 2yrs and still good) you can't control the unit without it (temp, fan speed, mode, timer).
I love this thing, 2nd summer of use July 17, 2008

I have used this for 1.5 summers in my bedroom, which is avout 14x14. Every hot night (I am in the nyc area) I turn it on high about 45 minutes before I go to bed and my room is totally chilled by the time I get in there.
By the time I'm done reading my book (another half hour) I shut it off and turn on a fan and sleep like a baby thru the night
It's a highly efficient way to keep my bedroom cool, and i sleep under a sheet! I'd say it's good for a 8 degree drop in the room in this time.
It's not as efficient or quiet as an equivilent window unit, but I live in a 50's modern with slider windows and it does the job great.
It's never had to be emptied, except at the end of the season, the dehumidifier function works fine -- but my primary use is described above. If we hit a cool spell, I roll it right into my closet and it's gone.
I love it. I had to be a little creative with the window kit, but bottom line, if you need bedroom AC and you have a smaller size room, it rocks.
The guy with the motor problem, well, bummer -- but it's certainly not been my experience and like I said, I'm in my second summer of use and expect it to keep going for a couple more.
I'd buy another with no hesitation if I had a reason. Oh! It also have a groovy little remote!
As I said in the title, it's in it's second summer

Let me just point out some things that some reviewers are whining about.
1. Noisy - Very normal, You think a window unit is quiet?
Solution - Get an outside unit and pay big bucks to the installer.
2. Vent is a pain - Are you kidding me? A 10 year old can work around
fitment issues!
Tips - make sure the screws from the hose connector to actual vent is
secured by a screw with bushings to hold it in place.
- make sure you put a stainless screen outside to prevent objects
from going into the unit.
3. Reliability - Come on lets face it, everything breaks including/especially my heart.
Tips - Dont fall in love too easy :P
Seriously
Tips - Dont keep on moving the damn thing, let it stay in one corner.
- When leaving the house for an extended period, unplug it.

I loved this product. It was built to cool off one room. And so far, this that's exactly what it has done. It Answered all of my summer problems.
