Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased my Honeywell 10,000 BTU Portable AC from Walmart.com. Amazon has the same price. I just thought that if anything went wrong it might be easier to return to a local store. I received the ac within 2 days of ordering in great condition. It was nicely packaged. After I cut the shipping straps off I wondered how in the world I would get the unit out of the box without turning it on its side (which is not recommended). I quickly found that the box lifts off of its base for easy removal of the unit. Very nice! I wheeled the unit into my 15' X 15' bedroom and was pleased to see that not many pieces were involved in its assembly. The instructions are not clear at all as to how you attach the hose to the other two pieces. It just says to do it. I tried snapping the connections onto the hose, then prying the connections onto the hose. Tried to use a flat head screw driver and ended up putting a hole in the hose, whoops! Luckily its at the very end so it doesn't affect anything. Finally found that you screw the connections on. It was super easy to do once I figured that out! Yay!! I easily installed the window plate. It's really nice because I rent & I didn't want to have to use screws in the window frame. The home is old and has ancient wood frame windows that raise up and down. I stuck weather stripping onto the window plate itself to create a good seal. The part that connects to the window plate kept popping out because of the drop from the window sill to where the plate sits. So I added another strip of weather stripping to the base of the window plate and that fixed the problem. Connecting the hose to the back of the unit took just a second and wah la, I'm done!! I am a single mom with no man to help and I was able to install this unit all by myself which I'm so ecstatically happy about!! The unit cools beautifully and works perfectly!! I've only had it for less than a week so I'll keep you informed if anything goes wrong. Thanks for reading, I hope my review helps!!
