Portable Air Conditioner, 8,500 BTU for Rooms Up To 350 Sq. Ft., Portable AC with Full Function Remote Control & Window Kit, BPACT05SM, White

I bought this to use only on the hot humid nights in my coastal home. We installed this in less than five minutes and had it up and running. I like how it is small enough that it can fit in a small space in a small bedroom. It cools the room quickly and keeps it cool. I also appreciate the timer, so we can cool the bedroom and then shut it off automatically. Would definitely buy again!

Good looking unit delivers fresh dry cool air that relaxes and uplifts. I have asthma and hay fever and this black and decker ac is better than the building hvac (it's replacing) so im impressed enough to consider another. It is very quiet and makes only the slightest noise like a new ac. It rolls very easy from room to room and window reattaching is easier than I thought due to the easily expendable windows panel that holds the vent. Super easy set up is made possible by parts that fit and great design. I like this one for being slim and boxy. I might get another for a different room. Very pleased

I have this brand and another brand of portable ac unit. This one is the better choice. Works as it should, cools down efficiently. I can’t really comment on the noise because it doesn’t bother me so I don’t usually notice. I’m a fan of background noise anyways. It may be a little loud to some though. The dehumidifier option seems to work, I use it sometimes. It has several functions, and a remote. I do wish it could be set lower than 64, as my other unit goes to 62, but honestly it does the trick either way. Would buy again and would recommend.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: It was a good price and works amazing, this portable ac definitely keeps me cool at night on these hot days, this is my first time purchasing one of this portable ac, the only thing u have to do is empty the water that builds up other than that this product is amazing, plus was a fun experience hooking one up definitely watch a video on how to put a window kit on

Cools my 250 sq ft space fine, with the help of a fan to circulate the air. Noise level is fine, and set up is easy. It needs constant drainage or else I get the "full tank" warning after about 40 minutes of cooling (in only 55% humidity). The hose it comes with was too small for my needs so I needed to order another one, and it doesn't tell you its dimensions anywhere.

I wish i could give a 0 star review. I’m so unhappy right now. Avoid, avoid, avoid. So much false advertising here. I purchased this unit because it came with a window kit that is supposed to fit up to 59 inch wide windows or sliding doors. Yet, the kit maxes out at 38 inches. (My window is 42 inches wide. I cannot forsee how this would even work in a door.) When I contacted Amazon, they wanted to give me a refund - i just wanted the advertised kit. (I live in a very rural place and it’s very difficult to get this unit reboxed to ship back.) They recommended I contact Black & Decker from the number on the advertised item - that number rolls to the B&D small kitchen appliances group out of Ohio - not the right support unit. Supposedly, B&D has been asking Amazon to update this number for a while. Who knows what the real deal is here. As for the unit itself, I couldn’t tell you how well it performs as I am having to purchase a universal window kit separately and am awaiting its arrival. If you are purchasing this AC unit with the idea the window kit will work for you, let me just go ahead and advise that if the window is greater than 38inches to avoid this unit.

Besides not having a vertical air vent adjuster ,it's good .

Edit: Well, after writing the review below, I ran into a problem. The A/C just suddenly turns off while it's running in cool mode. (It's not like when it cycles between the compressor and the fan; it just stops running entirely, even though the desired temp is still lit up on the display.) If I hit the on/off button, it makes the two beeps sound that indicates "off" (even though it's not running). I can turn it right back on, and it seems to work, but I can't keep waking up every 20 min to turn it on! Have done all the required trouble-shooting (check the electricity, filters, drain pan, exhaust hose is not kinked, etc) - all fine, and it does it even when it's not particularly hot out. Also does it within 15 minutes of turning it on. I contacted Black & Decker and they are happy to send a replacement -- but that means I have to uninstall this one, pack it up and ship it, and wait up to "7 to 10 days" for a replacement, and then re-install that one. Needless to say, not ideal when it's in the 90s. I asked for a refund instead and they wouldn't give it to me. Really disappointed - and dreading the next few weeks without an a/c! Please fix this, Black & Decker! I'm happy with this purchase. I've never had a portable A/C, but had to buy this because my windows in the place I live now won't open wide enough for a window unit. The A/C was easy to set up and install. I'm pleased that it's a compact size. It cools my room efficiently and quickly. The noise level is absolutely fine and what I would expect - certainly not louder than a window A/C. I really like the fact that when it switches from cooling to fan mode as the room cools, there's not a big "clunk" or other noise (which I have had happen with other A/Cs). Everything feels solid and well-made. Love the fact that I can control it with the remote.

Love this AC unit (8500 BTU). It's surprisingly efficient. But please take note the window kit IS FOR A SLIDING WINDOW frame, NOT for rolling windows. Otherwise I would've given it a 5 stars rating.
