Answer 1

I bought one for my daughter's room last year. The unit itself looks fine, but it is unattractive having a large hose stretching from the unit to her window which sits high in her wall. Not much to be done about it though. Her windows aren't made for traditional air conditioners, and  when tne summer ends, it wheels easily to the attic for storage for the next summer. It never makes her room cold, but it does make it very comfortable through hot summer days & nights.
