For the money it should never need you to help with draining to operate. Self evaporating... LOL after 30 minutes of use just leaks all over the place.

I have been hoping that this unit would improve--or that once we replaced windows, added insulation that this unit would work better. It dehumidifies, awesome......I can pull the plug, this year and drain it daily. However--it cannot cool. We have been having a very hot week at near 100 during the day and nights in the high 70's the room, I am using it in, is on the South side of the house and it gets so hot in the evening. This unit cannot keep it below 80 degrees--which is too hot for me. Sadly--I just got frustrated, pulled the plug and brought my small 5000 btu window unit into the room and turned IT on--the room has gone from 80 with this unit--to 76 in ONE HOUR!

DO NOT BUY! It is fairly loud, too.

This is our second unit. The first one lasted 5 years of so. The last 2 and a half years, it ran 24/7 in our data center. If this one lasts as long, I'll be extremely happy.

Honest reviews on Sunpentown WA-1220E 12000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

I bought this sytem thinking it would at least provide some comfort from the Southern Cal heatwave we got durring the summer of 2006. Bottom line, IT DID NOT. The square footage of the top floor of our apartment is approximately 500 square feet. The largest temperature drop was from 91 degreees to 89 degrees at 9:00PM. Even sitting directly in front of the system's fan (approx 10 feet away) did little to cool one person, so forget about cooling a small room. Please look elsewhere if you want a room larger than a small closet cooled.

For its size and BTU rating I had expected much more from this unit. It is a pain to drain the collected condensed water tank, several times a day. It operates very warm, which makes this more of a heater and less of a cooling device. Even with the remove and clean filter a lot of dust still gets into the case, and instead of using standard philips screwdriver for the body they use several different head styles some of which are expensive. In addition, when i first got it, it did work but only if you stood in front of the vent, meaning that when it does work if you want to benefit from its use you have to sit in front of it. Bottom line, save your money and get a better one.
