So I have central air, but I have an office on the top level of a split house and it just gets too hot regardless of the central air (my house has 5 levels). So in my quest for a portable air conditioner, since I have replacement windows that do not open up enough to have a regular window air conditioner, I bought the under 300 dollar Amcor and here is the brief review.
The good: It is cold, as my one son said, “Daddy it’s like winter” when he stood in front of it. Easy to setup, quick to move, cool down the room quickly. Price is cheap. Looks easy to drain.
The so so: Single exhaust. There is a tube that disperses out the water, but I still have water slogging in the unit after 4 days of it working, I thought the water would evaporate or be pushed out the tub better. Loud. Exhaust hose gets real hot, but I guess that is too be expected.
Overall for the price a good unit, I do not know how it would fair as an overall house unit, but as an additional unit for replacement windows in a house with central air it works great.
