BLACK+DECKER Portable Air Conditioner, 8,500 BTU (5,100 BTU SACC) for Rooms Up To 350 Sq. Ft., Portable AC with Full Function Remote Control & Window Kit, BPACT05SM, White

I bought this for my apartment living room and this unit cools down the room in no time! Easy to install, it's quiet and works amazing!

Love this AC unit (8500 BTU). It's surprisingly efficient. But please take note the window kit IS FOR A SLIDING WINDOW frame, NOT for rolling windows. Otherwise I would've given it a 5 stars rating.

I bought this for my son's room. It definitely makes the room COLD! Pretty easy to install. My son's room size is 12x12. I don't feel it's great for being portable since it does need to be installed through a window.

Bought two of these units after our top floor air conditioner went out as a supplement until we can have the main unit repaired. Worked marvelously for both upstairs bedrooms where we sleep so it worked perfectly as advertised. Very easy to move around and set up as the wheels work nicely. Only reason for 4 and not 5 stars was that the sliding panel that goes in the window was just short for both of our windows but we found a workaround. A few reviews complain that the unit is loud and I believe that is because they simply turned the unit on as soon as they received it and did not follow the instruction to leave it vertical for a few hours to allow the lubricating oil to return to the compressor. The overall noise level I could compare it to would be a kind of quiet hotel window air conditioner which was to be expected. Overall very happy with this unit

I picked up the Square BLACK+DECKER Portable Air Conditioner, 5,100 BTU SACC/CEC (8,500 BTU ASHRAE 128) to replace another unit I bought a couple of years ago. The older unit is from an obscure Chinese company that no longer exists. This no-frills B+D square unit looks almost exactly the same but is a little smaller and I'm hoping to will perform better. The on/off temp control range seems to be the same, you have to go 6 degrees above room temp to get the AC to shut off. The new B+D unit puts out a lot of cold air but is noisy making a rattling sound from inside when the ac compressor is on. The 2-speed fan & remote works fine. I'm hoping the water internal evap cooler will be enough to keep the inside water tank from filling up. I will post another review update after summer
