Amcor ALD 12000E Portable Air Conditioner  Product Reviews

"Overall, I can only marginally recommend this product. It certainly does not cool down a 400 square foot room, as it claims. It is probably effective with smaller rooms, however. Also, it is very noisy, and it only seems to become more so the longer you use it. Furthermore, the instructions are not very clear. I still have not figured out how to empty out the water from the unit, and the instructions have been no help. It seems to me that they modify the unit over time, but do not take the time or endure the cost to update the instruction manual. Nevertheless, it does produce cold air, which is far better than circulating warm air with a regular fan. I have the feeling that one is better off spending a little more and getting a better unit."
