Extremely effective little unit By MyPenName I am not sure what the problem is with the other reviewer's unit, but mine is not loud at all. I am wondering if maybe his unit was defective in some way. I mean, I hear it running, but it is quiet even compared to our 7500BTU unit. It does cycle on and off when in energy saver mode, but I do not find it bothersome - it is just doing it's job, and like I said it is not overly loud. I have had regular box fans and tower fans that are louder than this air conditioner. This things works good and fast! It has totally cooled our entire first floor consisting of living room (17x20), dining room (16x20), kitchen (18x18), and coat room (9x12). The cool air goes back the hall as well that leads to a bedroom and bathroom. There is another room off the kitchen that is 20x23 and you can feel the cool air filtering into that room too and taking the edge off of the heat in there. It definitely works for areas larger than 450 sq ft. My downstairs is much larger than that and this thing had it freezing in here. I have it running on low in the energy saver mode set at 69 degrees. I was really surprised that it works so well and cooled down such a large area. We had wanted (and thought we needed) a much larger wall unit, but this LG is working perfectly. Our 15+ yr old wall unit died on us a few weeks ago and we had to stick within a budget and get a smaller window unit for now. Needless to say, we will stick with this because it is doing just as good of a job as the wall unit did. You can adjust the air flow side to side on the vent, but not up and down. This didn't bother me, but it may be a breaking point for some. We haven't even tried the remote yet, so I can't comment on that, but it has very few buttons and looks very straight forward - much like the controls on the unit itself. The a/c is a nice, simple design in a light beige/tan and is not huge or terribly heavy. Installing was quick and it includes screws and brackets as well to secure the unit. You can use it with or without the accordian type "wings" on the sides - they aren't already attached, but do attach easily. I am extremely pleased with this a/c so far. I definitely got more than I expected in regards to performance. The controls are super easy to use. You set the fan speed/mode and the temperature and that's it - you're good to go and can enjoy the cool air. This thing is powerful, don't be fooled by the 450 sq ft quote on the specs. I was told by someone in the store that this unit would be good for a large bedroom or den.. ha! This thing is taking care of ALL of or main living space with no problem at all. I would imagine if used this in a bedroom, you would freeze over! I definitely recommend this unit and feel like the "noisy" claim on the other review is due to some sort of malfunction. This baby packs alot of bang for the buck. I bought it elsewhere for 256 including tax and shipping and feel it is worth every last penny. If we run into any problems with it though, I will definitely update the review. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Don't waste your money!!! By Chyna This air conditioner was fine for 6 weeks. Then the unit then stopped working. When I called LG i was given a # to call a local business for service. When I called I was told to bring the unit in, instead of a home visit. This AC is very poor quality, and will not last. I'm returning this unit and not wasting my time to repair a AC that shouldn't have stopped working in 6weeks. Dont waste your money. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good value, small window A/c By Brandy Dover This model scores pretty well in consumer report and fits the size I needed. It is not particularly loud for an A/C unit unless you are sitting right next to it. It is pretty effective at keeping a large area cool. We have an open lounge, kitchen, hallway and stairs (total
