Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

ajustice 6/7/2022

We used this product for two summers. Went to install today and the air conditioner runs for 5 secs and then it flashes 88. After researching the issue, we found that it references a bad control Panel signaling the unit is dead. We spent roughly $350 at Lowes. We're disappointed.........

The best air conditioner

Jennynyc82 6/5/2022

I decided to replace the 2 acs I had , 1 in my living room and the other in my dining. This 8000btu cools my entire apartment and it's not a small nyc apartment like you would think about. This one is a very large 3 bedroom!!! I've already recommended it to others !!

Had high hopes

JeannaFD 8/24/2021

We read reviews on several different A/C brands before our purchase . We decided After careful consideration to purchase this GE Window unit for our she- shed. We purchased it in July 2020 and it went out today August 24th 2021. We did not run it during the winter months. We probably got a good seven months out of it. It is the Compressor.I would not recommend. We are one month out of our year warranty.

VSAN 8/9/2021

Had it for a year, then suddenly started freezing up. I followed instructions in the manual to get rid of the ice but it continues to freeze. Doesn't work after the ice melts. Doesn't cool my bedroom. And because of it spitting water out, it has mold.

Fan Noise, Temp Sensing, and App Need Work

Omnipius 8/6/2021

Unit cools quite well when running. However, it doesn't seem to be able to accurately sense the temperature of the room unless the fan is continuously running on COOL mode. On ECO it can get stuck with the fan off thinking that the temperature is at or below the setpoint while the room is actually 5+ degrees over the setpoint. What's more, the temperature control is +/- 3 F. Meaning the cooling doesn't kick on until the sensed temperature is 3 F over the setpoint and doesn't turn off until the sensed temperature is 3F under the setpoint. There is no way to adjust this control band. I worked around the sensing issues by creating a IFTTT applet to quickly cycle COOL and ECO modes at the top of the hour if it's been more than 30 minutes since the target temperature was reached. Downside to this is that every time a setting is changed, even remotely, the unit beeps. There is no way to disable this beep. The fan itself is WAY louder than the compressor, even on LOW. So you pretty much have to use ECO mode for some peace and quiet. The Android App needs a lot of work. Constantly waiting on a spinning wheel while "Communicating with Appliance" is super annoying when I just want to see what temperature is being sensed. Also, returning to the Control pane of the app after a while for some reason loads the self help pane instead and you still have to wait through the "Communicating..." message again before it'll let you change anything.

More than I expected

Just us two 8/6/2021

This air conditioner looks fabulous was easy to install and works like a charm. It cools off my whole apartment with the assistance of one fan to blow the cold air into the rest of the rooms. And I have a four room apartment. As a matter of fact sometimes it gets too cold. I love the remote and everything about this. If I needed another one I definitely buy this again.

This air conditioner was very easy to install and to operate. Had no problems from the start. I installed this in a shed off of my house hoping the wifi would work from that distance and it has been working great right from the beginning. I have not had any problems controlling it from my phone while im out town. I love it and would reconmend it for anyone.

Rudy Q 6/30/2021

I give the 4 star rating instead of 5 stars as I was hoping this unit had a air flow control to switch from "outside" air intake to recycling "inside" air drawn from inside my home. When advertising/listing your air conditioner units online on ANY website, AND on the box you print for when a unit is sent out to sit "on the shelf" in a retail setting at a brick and mortar store, you should always make mention of a controllable air intake feature to help a customer decide as to which of your air conditioners are appropriate for the customers needs

First off this was super easy to put in, not super heavy like older models, it's heavy but not back breaker! I love the WiFi and app feature! I can be out and check on the temp in my living room and adjust it from the app!!! Would recommend this for that reason! So if eco button is on it adjusts temp to outside temp, so if you want it cooler just turn that little button off and there you go!

Chrissy31 6/30/2021

We've had this a/c for about a week and I hate it.. it doesn't blow out cold air.. I'm dying in the heatwave.. my room size isn't that big it's probably 150sq ft and this should get a room cold that's 500sq ft and so far all I feel is hot air coming out and I have it on the right settings.. I basically bought an expensive fan.

Chilling in AZ

Havajude 6/29/2021

I have 4 window air conditioners all energy efficient. Out of the 4 this one is by far the best! It cools great and is quiet. Living in 120 plus heat in AZ it costs a fortune to run my Central Air in this Manufactured home. I have 5000 BTU in bed rooms and this 8000 in den/living room and it keeps it cool even in our sweltering summer heat. I would recommend this to anyone. My electric bills are really low compared to my friends running the big central air.
