Ha Sh CV-P12PX 11500 Btu Portable Air Conditioner Review

Ha Sh CV-P12PX 11500 Btu Portable Air ConditionerFirst off, the brand name is "Sharp", not sure why the title on this is "Ha Sh".

Appearance
This unit is huge, about 3 ft tall and 2 ft by 2 ft at the base, it certainly looks bigger than it looks like in the photo, so make sure you have the space (you're supposed to leave 1 ft clearance from walls on all sides for effective operation). Moreover, the unit is heavy, about 100 lbs, so if you plan to put it on the second floor make sure you can carry it up the stairs.
The unit looks nice and the quality of the material is decent.

Installation
The installation is pretty straight forward, make sure you have a window where you can stick the exhaust host. The included parts support both double hung and slider windows. Basically some plastic panels to cover the opening. The manual suggests that you use the included brackets to fix the plastic panels in place, but I didn't want to make holes in my window sill, so I just used tape and it worked fine.

Operation
It's a portable unit, so don't expect it to cool your room down like central A/C or a window unit does. I put it in the hottest room of my house (kitchen) which faces west and gets really hot during summer. The A/C cools down the room a little bit but I still feel warm unless I sit right in front of the A/C.
when the A/C is cooling, it's not exactly "library quiet" but after reading reviews of other portable A/C I figured it's considered quiet for a portable.
The main unit only has the on/off button, so you need to use the remote control to make all the adjustments.
