Some things to consider:
- the settings are easy: off, low fan, low cool, high fan, high cool in that order going counter clockwise, but the grey background with blue writing is unbelievably difficult to see. I’m in my mid 30s and I’m near sighted and it is still so hard for me. If you have poor vision, just keep this in mind.
- make sure to measure the window with the product measurements. I’ve seen some reviews that complain that it doesn’t fit, so make sure it fits your window.
- it’s advertised as a vertical opening window, but it works just fine for horizontal. I just put a piece of wood to close the gap at the top.
- it’s pretty efficient but my apartment is small. Make sure you calculate how many BTUs you need to cool your place.
