The a/c works great while I wait to have my HVAC system replaced.  If you're looking for portable cooling at a great price, this will do the job for sure.  The electrical cord and exhaust outlet are a bit short (5 feet), which limits where the unit can be placed.  An affordable extension cord is available at your local big box store (I added an additional six feet) ... and I will also be replacing the plastic exhaust tube with a longer and sturdier one.  Overall, I'm really satisfied.
