S-220 – Avalla Air Conditioner - 4-in-1 Portable Air Conditioner 9000 BTU with Dehumidifier, Fan & Sleep Mode - Quiet 50dB Cooling, Remote Control, Swing Function & Window Kit - Cools Rooms up to 88m³

I bought this AC unit just over a year ago. I wanted to try it fully before writing a review. Initially I was reluctant to purchase an AC unit, I felt it was too costly and I would make do with a normal fan. I have used all of its functions and I have no regrets about purchasing this unit. During hot days, I usually put the AC function on in the bedroom and leave the door open. It cools my small bungalow enough to be comfortable indoors. On an extremely hot day, the unit does get moved to the living room to get it much cooler. During the night the bedroom door is closed, amazing sleep, lovely cool room with a background of white noise from the unit. I have also used the dehumidifier function in the winter. Clothes dry quickly and no musty smell in the property. I wish the vent hose was longer to allow it to be put out the top window comfortably. It does not stretch that far without the unit being lifted onto a higher surface. The condensed water is emptied from a little port at the bottom of the unit, this is a bit fiddly and you have to place a small towel under it when attaching the draining pipe as some water will def leak. I usually only have to drain it when using the dehumidifier function. However this year, I have drained it x2 already whilst in the AC mode, possibly higher humidity this year?! Who knows! Overall, I am very pleased. Unable to compare with other portable units but have no regrets as the summers are def getting much warmer!

While the air conditioner is fantastic and cools a room as expected, i am disappointed with the noise level, its far too loud to use during the night and the sleep mode setting doesnt appear to make any difference to the noise of the unit. It's great for cooling a room before you go to bed, but is unuseable during the night

The air conditioner does the job for a reasonably sized bedroom, around 25m^2, probably around 70m^3. When the unit was listed originally, it said Multi-Rooms and 85m^2 (squared) Currently, the description is showing as 88m^3 (cubed), and that feels about right.. But even in the UK, with small rooms, you will struggle to cool multiple rooms significantly. It cools the room from around 26c to a minimum of around 20c, the ambient outside is around 23c - which is perfect, we've been sleeping a lot better since having it. However, despite the above, I'd give it 5stars (it gets a -1 further below). All things are compromises - if it were more powerful, it would be bigger, and then it wouldn't be such a convinient size to put in a cupboard for the 330 days of the year it isn't so warm in the UK. Though I've been slightly underwhelmed by the power of it, I've been impressed by how compact it is, and how easy it will be to store. It is larger, but not significantly so than most tower fans - and a similar size to watercoolers. The reason it ends up as 4stars is due to the exhaust pipe. Most houses in the UK don't have windows that fit the kit, which I guess is fine, but they also need a longer hose - the included hose isn't enough to reach the windows in most houses. Buying a new hose isn't cheap, and it would have been better/cheaper to have just had a good size included already.

I was attracted to this particular air conditioning unit by the reviews, price and A energy rating. Upon receipt I was really delighted by how easy it was to unpack and set up, also to see that thought had been given to minimising single use plastics. I was pleasantly surprised that it tucks away in a corner when not in use and is not too 'industrial' looking. While it is reasonably loud, the quick cooling effect more than makes up for this. The volume of cold air coming out from the moment you turn it on feels impressive. I think it is going to be a game changer for days when we have very high temperatures, giving me the ability to be continue with work and life.

So disappointing. Ordered this for my 93 year-old mother. There has obviously been some kind of leak from somewhere when it arrived as the packaging was marked, plugged it in and ran it for nearly now but nothing. Did not work at all and in fact started blowing hot air back into the room. Absolutely furious. Fabulous customer service from Amazon who have refunded my money and I don’t have to send it back as apparently it would cost me money to return a defective items AVOID.

I did a lot of research before purchasing the S-220 Ait Con unit from Avalla. I had already tried another make unit previously which was returned as it was super loud and leaked. Then I found the Avalla. I bought this over the S-200 as it was newer, cheaper and had SWING on the vents left to right. This unit is much smaller and quieter than most. It is louder than a standard fan, but I can sleep with it on no problem. It says multi room, which I have yet to prove, but so far it has cooled my 4 x 4 Metre bedroom down by several Degrees to 18 Degs. I am not sure it will ever get it down to 15 Degs, but it does make the space feel less sticky and humid and cooler / comfortable. All air con mobile units come with the same type of Window kit, most of which do not fit standard uk windows unless you have sash. I have managed to make use of the kit as shown in photos below. It kinda works well. The only 2 slight niggles I have are that Auto mode is pretty pointless in the UK. It is set at 24 Degs and cannot be changed. I would like the option to set this to 20 or 21 Degs as that is the temperature I like to sleep at. But I am guessing this is an Environmental factor and for Countries who are melting in 38 Degs the 24 would feel cool. The other minor niggle is the top surface is a weird black material that always seems to have smudges on it and it never looks clean even though I wipe it. All in all very happy with this unit and it does what I wanted. Now just need some UK Summer heat to get to use it.

Working fine but received damage on a front body.
