Reviews
Large Cooling Aesthetic Air Conditioner
"This air conditioner is great to have because it has a functional auto sensor that turns off and on according to the temperature of the room. It's durable and quality made. It does have some noise but not alot. It has a remote control for your convenience and so far has lasted a long time with ongoing continued use. This air conditioner has the ability to really cool down a large area room. You can move it around easily because it has wheels. This looks really nice with the aesthetic black color which complements the room. It's easy to use and somewhat pricey but a good investment."

Great portable AC!
"We got this Portable AC for when power goes out and we use a generator. It is very portable and easy to move around. Assembly was pretty straight forward. I tested it in our bedroom and it does not take long to cool down the room. It fits in our window perfectly. The noise does not bother us as we are sleepers who need constant noise at night. It gets cold really quick! The remote is great, as well! This way you don't have to walk over or get out of bed to it to change your settings. Love this AC!"

Portable AC well worth the price!!
"Our AC went out when we were at our home in the Florida Keys, 90 degrees inside. We ordered it and it arrived the very next day as advertised. Easy to install and move from room to room if needed. Unit cools very well and gets very cold in a bedroom. Can be set to 69 degrees but 75 degrees is more than cool enough. Unit is pretty quiet and will not disturb sleep."

Excellent option for backup AC
"As a homeowner in a hurricane-prone area of Florida, being prepared is a necessity. We obtained this portable air conditioner primarily as a backup cooling source to run off a generator in the event of an extended power outage or a failure of our central AC. While we thankfully haven't needed it for an emergency yet, I did a full test run to ensure everything worked as expected. The unit is well-finished and comes with a comprehensive window installation kit and clear documentation. Upon starting it up, it immediately began to put out a strong flow of cold air, and I'm confident it can keep a single room comfortably cool during the intense heat that follows a storm. Like all portable ACs, it requires venting the exhaust hose out a window and a plan for draining the condensation, but these are expected steps. For us, having this unit ready to go provides invaluable peace of mind."

Leaks!!!!!
"Purchased this unit at the end of July 2024, worked fine, for half a season. This year it leaked in the floor, every time we turned it on, even after draining it. It was stored properly over the winter. Very disappointed. I would not recommend. Expensive for 1/2 a summer season."

Powerful and Convenient Cooling Solution
"The SereneLife SLPAC408B. 5 Portable Air Conditioner is a fantastic addition to any home needing quick and effective cooling. With 14,000 BTU capacity, it cools rooms efficiently while the built-in dehumidifier helps maintain a comfortable environment. I appreciate the compact design, which makes it easy to move between rooms, and the included window mount kit simplifies installation. The multiple fan modes provide customizable airflow, making it versatile for different cooling needs. It's quiet, powerful, and reliable—perfect for hot summer days. Overall, a highly effective and convenient portable A/C unit!"

Effective cooling but a few issues
"This unit does a good job cooling -- on the few hot days in central NY we were able to keep the whole house cool with just this one unit. It's fairly quiet and has a good thermostat control and settings for the vent angle. It's simple to use and set up and moves easily on its casters. There are a few downsides though. While a window unit can drip condensation outside, this unit tends to fill up with water like a dehumidifier. It doesn't drain that easily. It's especially an issue in dry mode. There's a drain plug that should let you run a hose to a bucket but I couldn't get it to work. The other option is a lower drain plug but it's too low to easily get water out. The unit needs to be exhausted out a window (all air conditioners have to expel heat somewhere just of how the physics work), but this one is only designed to be used with casement windows. I'd you have a regular window you'll have to jerry-rig it and stuff some towels in the gap or something. It's a simple thing to fix but sort of annoying. The exhaust hose also isn't insulated so you get some heating behind the unit. In general this was a pretty effective unit and I'll definitely rely on it next summer. For the price I can overlook some of the flaws."

My cooler 9000
"Love it, keeps the room and apartment cool. This was a life savor, straight clutch for the summer"

Reliable Cooling
"This portable AC works exactly as promised and has been such a relief during hot days. It's easy to put together and simple to use, even for someone not very technical. I love that it comes with a remote so I can control it without getting up. The cooling power is excellent for a bedroom or office. Compact, efficient, and worth the price."

Great AC Unit
"This unit sits on the floor with just a small space in the window. I did have to adjust the length of the window blocking in this approximately 4-inch area cause it did not fit originally. I love it."
