It WORKS absolutely wonderfully. I love the one hose for exhaust (it replaced a behemoth with two hoses) and so far I haven’t had to deal with emptying the water tank. The room cools down very quickly. I will say that it’s loud… not a big deal, as I sleep with fans and noise machines. But when the AC KICKS on, it realllly KICKS on… and it’s LOUD! The display is also really bright. I like a completely dark room, and this is BRIGHT.
