| Quiet and Cool... | |
| I live in Hawaii where the humidity is high and the temperature is quite warm. Some of us here run our units all day. A quality unit is absolutely required. I already own a Panasonic 11,800 btu model, but needed a smaller unit for living/kit. This model is extremely quiet like all panasonic ac's living up to it's reputation as a great bedroom unit. The front panel is not "cheapy" looking like other brands with mechanical controls. Assembly was simple enough.....remote works great....Cools rooms efficiently according to max specs 10 x 30 or 300 cubic feet. It is worth the extra $50-60 compared to other brands which are less efficient, and not as quiet. | |
| The Panasonic CW-XC84HU is GREAT! | |
| We purchased this air-conditioner a month ago and feel it really lives up to its' reputation. It works great and IS VERY quiet. I was aware that to window mount might be a B----H but we didn't go there. We had ours wall mounted and had no problems at all. It seems to cool down a much larger area than it advertizes. It beat my expectations and the remote control is awesome! I think Panasonic did a good job and I would purchase it again. I checked a lot of reviews before we purchased and for the price (Amazon's) and the ratings, we made a good purchase. | |
| Works very well and is very quiet. Excellent choice. | |
| I bought this air conditioner after trying the fedders that most discount stores seem to sell. The comparable sized fedders/maytag is loud. The panasonic is whisper quiet. Since this unit was going in our bedroom that was important. The panasonic is quiet, it works well, and it has some great features (remote, auto air swing, delay timer for on/off) The assembly is a little more involed than many units, but not unmanagable. This little unit even came with a mounting sleeve and leveling feet. You just install the sleeve, adjust the angle, and screw it in. Then, once the adjustments are done, slide the main unit in to the case. I was shocked and horrified by the noise of the fedders/maytag. I returned it where I bought it. The panasonic is much better, and was only about 20% more money. Well worth it in my book. Oh yeah, there was one quirk. On low fan speeds you could hear water splashing around. I didn't like that sound. Fortunately panasonic gives you a choice. You can remove a plug, install the provided spout, and lower the water level. This will decrease the efiiciency slightly (still better than many competing units) and it will silence the water sound from the "sling cooling". It was nice of Panasonic to give us both options. I highly recommend this unit! |
