Delonghi PAC-T110P

The A/C unit puts out a tremendous amount of cool air and works as advertised. Previous reviews mentioned that it was noisy and that is indeed the case. However, that is a small price to pay after a… hurricane has knocked out our power, the generator has been turned on, and it's a humid 95 degrees out without a breath of wind. The price was right, too. I'm very pleased with the purchase. Setup is easy and the manufacturer quickly replaced a minor plastic part that got broken during shipping.

This looked good "on paper" after I researched portable a/c's. The one I have doesn't cool well, its being returned. I made a test where it was on for several hours, and couldn't lower the temperature… below 75, when it was only 80 out, but set to 66. I expected to freeze, not be merely comfortable. It won't be good enough for 90+ days. There were missing parts to connect to the window outlet (I used duct tape workarounds to test), and Delonghi said the serial number indicated it was manufactured over a year ago, and suggested it may have been returned. They seemed quite willing to send the parts... The good; it looks made well, no cheezy parts. No signs of the water bucket filling (which seems to happen dehumidify mode only), its relatively quiet. It moves fairly easy on the rollers. With separate air intake and output hoses, it should work better (but...). Con; no side to side adjustment for airflow. You seem to need to point the whole thing in a direction. Its very big and heavy. And it didn't cool well, but perhaps mine was returned by someone else.

The item comes in a flimsy box that is falling apart. This results in shipping damages causing structural damage to the air conditioner. I had to rebuild the shipping carton so I could return the item.… Amazon is very helpful in arranging UPS pick up and replacement. However the work involved ruins the shopping experience. I can't believe that Amazon does not regulated shipping standards. A better box would have saved all parties a great deal of effort..
