BLACK+DECKER BPACT10WT 10,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner with Remote Control

4 YEARUPDATE 2022: It's been 4 years since I've purchased this portable AC unit. I've been using it everyday, when it's not summer I simply use the built in fan for air flow when I'm working and white noise when I'm sleeping. When it's blazing hot during summer I have the unit blasting cool air in my home office while I'm working and when I am done for the day and want to chill outside of my office I can run my central air and save A LOT of money on my electric bill. This is an absolute must buy if you're looking for some AC relief without breaking the bank. I will without a doubt buy a brand new one the moment this thing breaks down on me but it's been going strong for 4 years now and I still can't see it breaking anytime soon! ORIGINAL REVIEW: The central air in my house is broken and it would cost me nearly $7,000 to fix it so I decided to pass and buy this portable air conditioner and it gets the job done for a far less price. It’s only been a couple of days since I’ve used this thing and it’s been a LIFE SAVER. It gets up to 110F where I am and this ac unit cools down my room within minutes! I set it to turn off after 1 hour to save energy. I don’t expect this thing to cool down my entire living room but I always go to my room after work and I’m satisfied so far. My only complaints is the less than helpful instruction manual to set this up but you can get an idea on how to install this thing from YouTube, my other complaint is that it’s fairy loud but honestly the benefit far outweighs the cons so it gets 5 stars in my book. I’ll be sure to update my review if I encounter any problems, but as of now I’d highly recommend this unit if you want to beat the summer heat every year. UPDATE 08/19/18: It has been about 2 months since I’ve bought and used the unit now and I still stand by what I said about this device, it is a LIFE SAVER! My area has been consistently hot all summer with temperatures ranging from 99F - 107! And not once did I ever feel the summer heat indoors. This was definitely worth the purchase and is an amazing investment for future summers to come. UPDATE 05/17/21: It has been 3 years since I’ve owned this portable air conditioner and I firmly believe this is by far one of my greatest investments. It has reached upwards of 119 degrees where I live over the past 3 years of owning this AC unit and it’s been a LIFESAVER. I do not regret buying this and I can say with full confidence I would immediately buy a new one should this one fail; as things stand however, I don’t see it failing anytime soon!

En si el producto está genial. Ha hecho su función solo qué hay veces se siente que no enfría correctamente un cuarto pequeño 3x3 sin embargo, al momento de quitar el filtro de polvo, el serpentín se ve dañado y pareciera que se sobrecalento y está café en una parte. Lo más probable es que lo devuelva para evitar algún incidente más adelante. ----------------------------------------------- Actualización, al final no devolví el producto, lo que hice fue comprarle un protector para el tubo de plástico ya que se calentaba muchísimo, al implementarlo y ponerlo de una forma que de directamente a la cama, no solo refresca si no ha estado enfriando el espacio. El consumo de luz si fue bastante, vere como va este mes y si hubo diferencia de consumo electrico con el protector.

It's a great little AC, does the job well

Great was so worth of your money

I bought an Amazon basics branded portable ac because it had one day delivery and the compressor would not turn on at all, so I returned it and bought a b&d. I already owned a b&d mini fridge second hand and it runs great. I let my new unit sit up unplugged out of the box for 6 hours (8 hours is the sweet spot but the suggest 24 hours) ran so cold last night I used a blanket for the first time in weeks. Keeps my whole 450 sqft apartment cool all the way to the farthest point in the bathroom from unit. Easy set up & really cheap.
