HOMCOM Portable Air Conditioner 8000 BTU 4-in-1 for 27㎡, Window Kit

I highly rate this Aircon unit it does a fab job!! I have it in the living room which is approx 3.5m x 5m maybe a touch more and it cools the room down really quickly!! I've ran it on the hottest days we've had so far with no issues. It's much more compact and quiet than an old model one I had 5 years ago and works just as well. I don't find it noisey in comparison to other aircons or fans even, I turn the TV up a bit and it's just background noise. I haven't bought a window kit as yet as I have standard open out windows but even with the window open for the pipe it's working brilliantly. I find the pipe more than long enough, I am 5ft 6 and fully stretched it goes to my chin!! As it is an Aircon you don't need to place it blowing on you it cools the full room. And the fact it's a dehumidifier too is a bonus as I needed one of those. I am going to purchase the same unit in a lower btu for my bedroom! I have fibromyalgia and do not cope well in the heat so this is a lifesaver for me, I bought it on offer making it even better value. The only downside I have found was getting the pipe on the back of the unit but it's on now and working brilliantly, it can even get too cold lol !! If you want a cooler room buy one and you will have one in minutes of plugging it in! Just check your room size and get an appropriate BTU, I just googled, I could of got away with a lower rating for my room but I am very pleased with this unit, I am glad I didn't get a more expensive one now! The unit I find is more responsive to the remote control than the buttons on top of it but that is fine. Power is excellent, ease of use is excellent.

Doesn't do a bad job of bringing the temperature down, but be warned - it has two fan speeds, loud and very loud. Don't believe the reviews that say you can sleep through it, because it's impossible unless you're hard of hearing or wearing ear defenders!

Works well, check the area it should work for, used in room much smaller than listed and works very well, has good functions, using as air con. Not that quiet but I think it’s good for how cold it gets the room. Quite a good looking sleek machine, easy to get working and understand the instructions.

Our room is in the attic with a ceiling to floor window that gets direct sun at the hottest hours of the day. Fans do nothing but circulate warm air. I was in desperate need of a solution. Whilst coolers are cheaper I wasn't sure they'd do the job. It's not just warm in the bedroom it's... imagine going to the sauna in the desert yes horrible. This wasn't my original pick for air con due to not having many reviews but this was the cheaper option from a bunch I picked with reviews that were helpful. Now wislt I'm not someone to leave a review, I have to here. Firstly, it makes no more noise than your average fan. It was easy to set up. I had to buy a window kit separately only because of my type of window doesn't match the kit provided, which I knew was the case from the listing so no problem there. But most importantly I went from eating ice lollies in bed with 3 fans on around the average sized room (yes, 3) to needing to cover myself - it does cool the entire room! Another plus for me which might be personal, a fan blowing directly at me gave me headaches, this isn't the case with the air con. And, value for money compared to the asking price of other brands. Remote wasn't a must for me but it is handy. Thankful for this air con find. If in doubt, honestly, its worth the buy!

This is effective and will get you through the hottest summer days in the UK. Also, we live in a top floor flat in a Victorian house and we have an attic that seems to collect heat even in mild warm weather and our bedroom is toaster at night even though it can be very cool outside and with the window wide open at night. We use this for maybe 20 minutes to cool the room down and we sleep so comfortable afterwards. It does make noise but we can sleep through it. It’s the heat that makes us turn in our beds all night long. I don’t know how long this is going to last. But because we don’t use it everyday in the summer I do expect it to last a few years in which case it will be money well spent. *NOTE* For the Britons complaining that it’s not effective: educate yourselves about air-conditioners before making a purchase. This is an 8000 BTU unit. That means it is suitable only for a room no more that 15 Square meters. So that will be a small room and if you live in a high ceiling flat or house you need to take that into consideration too. And if it’s a room with a lot of windows that get direct sunlight that should also be taken into consideration. Direct sunlight entering windows heats up a room like a greenhouse. Getting an air conditioner not powerful enough for the room you are cooling makes it more likely it won’t be effective when it’s really hot. Also the compressor in the machine will be working non-stop as it attempts to bring the temperature down to the set temperature. That shouldn’t be the case if you get the right machine for the room. A compressor working non stop means that it will eventually break down a lot quicker too. Last but not least, only buy an air conditioner in the midst of winter. There will be more choice and a LOT cheaper. For reference, I bought this unit in January for just £170 new in 2021

I ordered this unit long before the heatwave. And am I glad I did! Pros - small enough to fit anywhere - big enough to cool down a small room - wheels are such a plus! You easily move it from room to room, on carpet or hard floor - easy to set up. Just plug in and ‘play - I have a smart meter display and it shows a low electricity consumption Cons - a bit noisy for me. Thankfully, I have noise cancelling iPod air that cancel the noise out, but it is as noisy as a big fan - does not cool down as quickly as I would like to. However, we are experiencing extreme temperatures it may not be geared up for. All in all, I am pleased with my purchase. Gave 4 stars because of the noise.

Ive had an air con unit before here and abroad quite pricy brands before however due to the budget crisis I decided to cut some costs & look for something low on energy consumption. I decided this was the best option after searching and comparing for quite some time. It arrived very quickly, was easy to manoeuvre, is quiet and small enough to not get in the way. It has multiple settings such as air con, fan and dehumidifier etc. I used this in the last heatwave and it was great at keeping myself and my dogs nice and cool. So far it’s keeping up with the leading brands. It comes with all needed accessories too, although the window fitting is only for sash windows so is useless for my windows meaning a waste of material. It would be great if you could pick a different window fitting or decline needing it when ordering to prevent this for future purchases.

Simple to set up, its a bit noisy but thats to be expected with air-conditioning towers. Perfectly handled the recent heatwave keeping the bedroom nice and chill through the night. Definitely worth the cost.
