Amcor AMS090HR Review

Amcor AMS090HRI bought this product. The picture shows a brushed aluminum surface for the interior unit, and is the same for many other websites.When the delivery came to my house the product was ugly and white plastic.Not only that the model code was different, AWS090HR, and not AMS090HR.When you go to certain websites however, they specify that the actual product part numbers are all different, with one site stating that the AWS090HR unit was part of the same product code, but it is completely different from the advertised product pictured on the many sites including on Amazon.com.

COVER A/C SQUARE34X30X34 [Misc.] Review

COVER A/C SQUARE34X30X34I've owned at least 3 of these covers. The first two I bought from Home Depot, and this is the third. All 3 seem to be exactly the same and they didn't last past two seasons. The elastic that comes with it, loses it's elasticity after one season and then it gets blown off with the wind, even after using extra rope

I've lost at least a couple this way. This time I'm going to get the one from Brookstone, which is supposed to be much sturdier

16" Evaporative Cooler Direct Drive Variable Speed With Tank Cart Review

16' Evaporative Cooler Direct Drive Variable Speed With Tank CartMy shop is located in the SE part of the country so heat and humidity are a real problem, especially when working outdoors.
While looking for a solution, I started to wonder if the "swamp coolers" I saw on the side lines at football games might be the ticket.I was skeptical, due to the fact that the inherent high humidity would diminish the evaporative cooling that enables these devices to work.Still I saw these things everywhere, so I was interested.After a little researchI found that the current models overcome a lot of the evaporative cooling/humidity issue via modern design.
My hopes were dashed when I started pricing these coolers, BIG BUCKS!I could install a separate AC system for the same price.Then by "divine intervention", I saw a portable version, when I walked into my local NAPA store.The salesman told me the way they market these coolers, is to drop them off at local garages during the day and then pick them up after it gets hot.Once people see the difference they make, they're sold.I was sold too when I got a great deal on the end of season model.
I'm impressed with the Port-a-Cool.Temps have only been in the 80's with low humidity, but the cooling is noticeable.The fan is big enough to make a "breeze" even sitting on the driveway.It's easy to move around can be used during any outdoor activity. So far this has been a great and cost effective cooling solution.
Tip:Add ice to the reservoir for even greater cooling effect.

White 8000 BTU Window A/C Review

White 8000 BTU Window A/CFor 15 years I've been buying small window units for a home library room. The last unit,a Panasonic was quite nice but unavailable when a replacement was needed so I picked up this Haier with its 3 speeds, digital thermostat and remote control and reasonable price. Install was no problem although the plastic side skirts are very flimsy and could easily be trashed while mounting it.

The PROBLEMS: First, this is the noisiest window unit I've ever had. The fan starts on high so turn to medium or low. Wrong! There is in fact almost no difference in airflow nor noise level from high to low. It roars on no matter what. Impossible to sleep next to this thing. Next I find out the thermostat doesn't really know what the real temperature is so don't count on setting the temp logically. It has to be by trial and error. Further the instructions are impossible on this point. Exact quote: When Ts-1F lesser than Tr lesser than Ts+3F the compressor will cycle for 10'on and 6'off. Yeh,right! and E=MC2 too! Calling Haier for help I belatedly find out their service is next to abominable. Long hold and then they were NO help. So what's not to like? Mine is going back just as soon as I find something else...

Danby DPAC120061 12,000 BTU 3-in-1 Portable Comfort System Review

Danby DPAC120061 12,000 BTU 3-in-1 Portable Comfort SystemI've owned one of the Danby 12,000 BTU air conditioners (model DPAC 12030) for two years now. A unit of this size struggles to cool a 400 sq.ft. room a few degrees (with 30ÂșC outside, window curtains drawn). I find the best way to use it is to have the air blowing directly toward me.

My main complaints about the unit are:

* After a few months of use the small LED display, which is needed to operate the unit, slowly went dim to the point of not being able to read it. After many phone calls to Danby I was finally able to get the display replaced under warranty by a local electronics service company. But a few months later the display went dim again - as though Danby hadn't bothered to upgrade this obviously faulty component. To their credit, Danby agreed to replace the display one more time out of warranty.

* The air coming out of the unit had a strange smell of oil for the first season. The service company said that sometimes the compressor leaks oil and it was probably the smell of the oil burning off of the compressor housing.

* The unit is not real quiet. For the first year there was a rattling noise that occurred when the compressor kicked in, but this noise seems to have gone now.
