This eco-air conditioner was a little pricey, but was worth every cent. I don't find it to be too loud, it's quieter than my last one, it's compact and cute, connects to wifi, has a great fan that can be set to swing mode, and best of all the water evaporates through the air vent. The air hose had a good connection that snaps together, so I didn't have to bother taping the hose on with duct tape, which I've had to do with two other units I've had in the past. I like that this has a cooling, fan, and dehumidifier mode with various fan speeds. I enjoy customizing my atmospheric experience.
This cools down 600 square feet of space and brought the humidity down today from 80% to 46%, what's not to love. It keeps my apartment cool and seems to be energy efficient. It also has a light that lets you know when the filter needs to be cleaned. This is the best air conditioner I've purchased over the years and I think it's a great option for small spaces.
