I have a large and tall verticle sliding window, two units placed vertically on their side, end-to-end fit perfect in my window, and it is the perfect solution for my hot and hard to ventilate and cool upstairs bedroom.
I love the thermostat function, that starts the fans up in the morning when I am still sleeping, and the fans are so quiet, they do not wake me up, so I wake up to a perfect 74 degrees.
If I do not want a drafty breeze on my skin, I program all of the fans to exhaust all of the hot air out of the house.
If I want to feel a breeze, I can program 1, 2 or all 4 fans to blow outside air into the house.
Since I have 2 units in 1 window, I set one thermostat to 74 degrees, and I set the 2nd set of fan's thermostat at 76 degrees. So if it is extra hot outside, and the 1st set of fans can't keep the temperature down to 74 degrees, and the temp rises above 76 degrees, then the 2nd set of fans come on and they keep the temp below 76, so far I haven't needed to use any AC!
I am very pleased, and I will install the same in the second bedroom soon.

Twin window fans are easy to find in stores. But something like this is a true rarity. I decided to opt for this Bionaire model after a couple of cheaper ones died on me over just a couple of summers. The price on this baby may be steep, but its a top quality solid machine all the way. The blades on it are a little bigger than the usual you are used to seeing on store models, and whisper quiet during operation. It really moves a lot of air effortlessly and cleanly. This thing can be programed with the remote with so many options that its like a new toy for any man, (and something the more sensible lady can set once and forget about)... This unit fits nicely in most windows and is very easy to set up. The digital readout works perfectly and saves trips to your thermostat if your wondering what the actual temp is. I admit I am spoiled by this fan and would never settle again for something cheaper. A real keeper. Highly recommended for the discriminating window... : )Best Deals on Bionaire BWF0910AR-WCU Remote Control Window Fan
I purchased this fan through Consumer Wholesales here on Amazon. The fan, even with the extender panel does not fit my window. At the time I purchased the fan, the product info states extra extender panels were available. I tried to return the fan first. Consumer Wholsalers told me to contact Bionaire. There is no phone number on the Bionaire website, & the contact by email kept taking me back to their FAQs! I have been searching for weeks for the elusive "extender panel" & have not found it. What a waste of money!Honest reviews on Bionaire BWF0910AR-WCU Remote Control Window Fan
The product overall is pretty good but could be improved with design changes.It is going to be strange because some of the PROs are also negatives or features lacking.
PRO:
It has a Remote control
Fans turn in Exchange mode (out/in), Push out, or Pull in.
It gave me batteries for Remote.
Temperature Shut off if the temperature is reached.
CONS:
Window Size is limited especially for vertical windows.
========================================================
I wanted to put this in 4 places in my house but all my windows are vertical. However I saw that you could
extend the edge out on the horizontal so I thought it would work vertically. It however did not extend enough on my windows were about a foot taller than the fan could expand.
Remote Control
===============
Remote control lacks 1 of the buttons that is on the unit also you can't tell by any way what setting is on
the fan already from the remote point of view.
Temperature Shut
================
This is nice but I wanted it to adjust to pull from outside if the air on the outside is cooler than inside
or do an exchange automatically figuring this out it does no of that.
Timer Shut Off
==============
It lacks a timer shut off one could argue that the Temperature Shut off is good enough. Often it rained outside
and the room was still above the set degrees since it was late or I was not paying attention to the fan I often had to shut off the fan to avoid it throwing water in the gears. If it could detect moisture instead using a barometer or something that would be better but since I never seen that I don't expect that but other fans have timers that shut off after so many hours.

These fans have a history of thermostat problems, but I had hoped that they had been resolved. In my case they were not. The thermostat would only read between 74 and 77 degrees when running. When I unplugged the fan and let it sit next to an AC vent for an hour, the temp would go down to 68. When I plugged the unit back in....with or without the fan running, the temperature climbed back up to 74 degrees quickly, and remained between 74 and 77.Additionally, the fan was shipped in flimsy original manufacturers boxing. While I understand that mechanical items sometimes fail, I was surprised at how difficult the seller made the return, challenging my ability to troubleshoot a fan, trying to force an exchange when I wanted a refund, and demanding I handle the resolution their way. I eventually had to engage Amazon to intervene through the A to Z guarantee process.
