I’ve never had to use a window unit before but I needed one after moving into an older cottage style home. I spent a week looking at different models, reading reviews, and comparing prices. After speaking with a friend who does property maintenance, I went with the LG. 

It’s been in about two weeks and it has made a significant change in the temp of the upstairs. There’s are two small bedrooms upstairs and a bathroom and I can feel a difference from the time before and after the unit was installed. I purchased a unit with 6000 BTUs and this is sufficient to keep my bedroom cold and it reaches down to the other room to keep it cooler.  

It’s also an energy efficient model which was important to me.
