So far so good it was a very easy install and doesn't take long to cool down the entire room I'll turn it on for maybe an hour and my room stays cold I haven't seen a drastic change in my electric bill it's little to nothing of a change the product is so quiet I honestly forget that it's on sometime if the room wasn't so cold I wouldn't know that it was running I do prefer to use the remote because pushing the button on the machine doesn't always work I can turn it off by machine and it'll pop back on I don't know if I'm just pushing it too hard or too many times or I'm not sure but the remote just works better for me other than that great machine
