Reviewers say the 9,500-Btu Sharp CV-P10MX is one of the quieter portable air conditioners, which earns it a high average rating at Amazon.com. As with most portables, it can be used as a dehumidifier and includes a remote control. It also exhausts water outside, a convenient feature that removes the need for a drainage hose or collection cup. One caveat: There are no controls on the unit itself and a replacement remote control costs approximately $50. The Sharp can cool a room of about 225 square feet. The Edgestar Koldfront PAC8000S (*Est. $290) can cool almost the same area but costs less.
The Sharp CV-P10MX is recommended by Air-Conditioner-America.com, but it is not featured in any other professional review. It does receive quite a few owner reviews at Amazon.com, Newegg.com and AJMadison.com.
