The TCL 8,000 BTU Smart Window Air Conditioner is great, we love it! We moved into a new home last summer and thought that the endless trees around us would provide enough of a breeze to keep cool, but we needed something more. This AC unit has been helpful on the warmer days for sure!! It works well, and keeps the cooler air circulating!! It's easy to use and understand. I've never used this brand before this unit, but I am a fan now!
