I bought the big unit (12000 BTU) for my livingroom, the smaller (8000 BTU) unit for my bedroom. The big unit is great. Installation - it weighs about 90 lbs and I didn't want to recreate a Seinfeld episode by installing it myself, so I had a professional install it. It took him less than half an hour to fix brackets to the window frame and seal the unit. How well it cools - After leaving it running on medium fan/ cooling setting (don't judge - it's for my dogs - and I buy carbon off-sets out of guilt...), I came home to an apartment that was like a walk-in fridge - it was awesome! My apartment has a pretty open floorplan, the living/ dining/ kitchen/ entryway is about 650 sq feet and the unit cools that space on the medium or low fan cool setting, keeping the temperature around 74 when it's 94 and humid outside. I've only had it for a month, so I can't speak to its longevity, but so far so good and there's a 1 year guarantee. Noise - The unit is really quiet - especially for it's size. It's actually quieter than the 8000 BTU unit.

We got this air conditioner thinking it might not be strong enough to really keep our apartment cold, but man were we pleasantly surprised. It is like a freezer in our apartment and you can barely hear the thing run! It is heavy as can be, but works beautifully! I'm glad we didn't opt to spend more on a bigger unit because this puppy is all we need. Our apartment is a good sized 2 bedroom and this thing alone keeps us quite comfortable.
