Product review (1 stars): DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF CRAP
I did my research online and, in spite of a couple of negative reviews on this product, I chose to purchase it.  It arrived in a well-packaged carton when it was supposed to arrive.  I unpacked it, followed the directions and got it up and running.  Within an hour of plugging it in, the compressor started to rattle badly.  I learned that the compressor on this unit is inside a housing unit that's about the size of a cantaloupe.  Internally, it is supported by a few springs.  The rattling clearly indicates that one of the springs broke.

Next, I contacted the seller.  They directed me to the manufacturer.  They offered to send me a new unit and asked me to use the packaging material from the new unit to package up the old one.  They paid for the return shipping.  I got the new unit and sent off the old one.  Again, I followed instructions to a tee.  Once plugged in, the second one rattled also - just like the first.  I contacted the manufacturer and told them I wanted to undo everything and just get my money back.  Sunpentown, an apparently jack-leg organization, said that they would send me yet a 3rd unit.  I told them I didn't want that.  I wanted my money back and to be done with this piece of crap.  They agreed to take the unit back but said that I must package it up.  I explained to them that I did not keep packing materials on hand which would allow me to package a unit of this size and weight.  I even offered to take it somewhere to get it professionally package and shipped if they paid for it.  They would not pay for the shipping and would not agree to hold me harmless if something happened to the unit during transport.

So...  I am stuck with a unit that cools, but that rattles LOUDLY.  It's become a game for us here at home.  When it starts rattling, my 2 year old daughter wants to stop the rattle the same way she saw Daddy fix the rattle for the first time - she comes in the kitchen and kicks the living crap out of it.

I am in the process of designing a website that will elaborate on my experiences.  It will be located at [...].  Feel free to check it out.  Don't be fooled.  I am a real consumer, and this is a real experience.  Posted at 11:04pm EST on 3-9-2013.

Good luck.
