Having owned GE products including A/C products in the past, I have to say that I am a bit disappointed in this unit. While the remote works well and is synced with the unit, the mode when on "cool" and fan on "low" results in a loud noise and makes it difficult to sleep at night. During the day the noise doesn't impact me. My other unit...6000 BTU as this one is much quieter. Overall, I am pleased with this unit, individual preference I am guessing but for the cost, it is overall worth it.
