This ac unit is perfect for the space we are cooling. It is approx 300 sq feet and this unit does an adequate job of cooling it.  It is pretty quiet unless you're running the fan on highest setting. Then it is noticeable but still acceptable.
I have never had a window ac unit with a remote control until I bought this one. It's so much more convenient! This remote is simple to use and gives full control of the unit from at least 20 feet away.  I'm very happy with this ac unit and hope to get many years of service out of it.  If I run into any problems I'll update this review.
