Koldfront WAC18001W 18,500 BTU 208/230V Heat/Cool Window Air Conditioner

Absolutely the best window a/c ive ever used, and ive used many. This beast cools my entire home and does it quickly. Far more efficient than running the little 110v units which ran nonstop all day long. Im in new orleans, and in the middle of the most brutal heat wave in recorded history. Even though i keep the unit set to 68 degrees, i was completely shocked when it actually shut off after reaching temperature. Ive actually had times where i had to turn it off because i was COLD! Imagine that. The best purchase ive made. Ive had it only a short time so i will update if reliability has issues but i dont expect any. The thing runs great and all the reviews i read before buying said the unit was very reliable. This all surprised me so much because, after doing a lot of research, i was under the impression that fridgidaire and frederick were 2 of the best. I was all set to buy a fridgidaire but, thankfully, it had sold out. Also, i had been reading amazon reviews and noticed there were a number of bad reviews on both fridgidaire and frederick, especially with their reliability and poor customer service. When i found the koldfront, i almost dismissed it because id never heard the name before. However, after reading the reviews and realizing i could find no negative reviews and plenty of rave reviews, i decided to take a chance on them while praying i didnt end up having to return this beast. The only issue i had with this entire experience was with the delivery. This thing comes on a pallet and is delivered by a freight company. They were, according to the ad, supposed to call me to set a delivery date. They didnt and it just showed up one day while i was at work. They dropped it in my driveway. I had to rush home from work while praying no one tried to steal it, even though that would be difficult given the size and weight. I would recommend calling the freight company the day after you place the order to make sure you know when you need ro be home. This issue does not, in the slightest, affect my exyreme pleasure at what ive experienced since its been installed. This is a big unit so make sure you have the room and an extra hand to help you get it installed. I had ignored this advice because im pretty strong and just figured the advice was for people of less oomph. However, i ended up needing a hand at the end to get it up the last bit to get it into the window. Well worth everything involved, however. I would buy again and recommend highly!

Our old AC (different brand) blew out due to the heat here. This one cools off the whole house.

I use this unit for a 480sf room. I couldn't ask for a better performance. When the recent outside temperatures were 100+, this unit did its job. The heater worked excellent during the winter months, too. I give it a 10. 👍😎

The item arrived with damage that affects the performance - it doesn't drain properly and the front grill has a big crack. Returning this huge item would be painful and wasteful so I have not contacted the manufacturer. The packaging needs improvement to prevent minor shipping damage from impacting the customer experience.The unit runs quietly and works to cool and heat a small garage. The case has a nice thick enamel finish and looks like it will hold up to outdoor weather.

Easy to install

I purchased to rental property, the tent like the choice.

provides max cooling with heat too.. works very well.. low energy cost in a 400 sq ft room, in 104 degree heat outside

So far it is doing a great job
