Consumer review (newegg.com)

Have used it for years...

 

I see there are a lot of bad reviews, but my experience with this unit has been great. Perhaps I was one of the lucky ones?

This unit has given me no problems. It's never leaked (note: you are not supposed to move it when there is water inside it!), never complained and never stopped working. I used this almost year-round (cooling in summer, heating in winter) when I was...

The programmable timer isn't very helpful. The remote doesn't always work. It's also a little loud. Never really cared

Buy with caution

 

This unit is not a "quick setup" AC. It has issues. But, if you have an AC-Tech mentality and work through them, it might work for you. I have 2 other units (Sharp) in my basement. They don't have any of these issues. I like them very much, but I doubt...

1. Very good cooling for a portable unit. 2. Looks pretty nice, in my opinion

1. Trips 15amp breaker several times/week. I'm going to run a separate 20amp circuit for it. 2. It leaks. Beware! My 1st use, it leaked on the floor and did minor damage. (Cap was tight.) To solve this, I built a U-shaped platform for it and placed a...

Soleus Air PH4-13R-01

 

The unit is heavy and bulky. I had to hire help to take it fedex. Cost $50.

I received package in good condition with no visible damage to outside and inside box. When I unbox the unit, I found out some scratches on the body

This unit never worked as it was not blowing any air at all. I returned the unit and got the replacement after almost 3 weeks. By that time weather on east coast became bearable and did not have chance to use the air conditioner extensively

HORRIBLE unit!

 

I chose this against my normal judgement, seeing bad reviews all over on these Soleus brand a/c's, because I cannot fit a window A/c in my house, and do not have the ability to purchase central air just yet. I would opt for some other type of unit,...

none, I had the worst experience with this unit

Too Heavy, casters do not roll well, left marks in my hardwood floor from it basically dragging, carpet-don't even think about it. It's "portable" but no where near portable if you want to move it around everyday. 13000BTU, had it in a 400sf room, It...

DO NOT BUY!!!!!

 

This is the first time I have ordered a large item. I don't think I'll ever do it again. It is much better to have somewhere you can take it back if it doesn't work.

Newegg delivered promptly

Does not work. It keeps tripping the breaker built into the power cord. Called tech support phone number and waited 1.5 hrs, no one answered. Email Soleus Air, no response. Unfortunately I cannot return a "bulk item" to Newegg. DO NOT BUY ANY SOLEUS...

All joking aside, this is a phenomenal AC unit. its efficient, having the 2 air systems; one to cool the inside of the room and the other to cool the hot condenser and remove the heat from the room. 13,000btu cooling capacity is HUGE! When it says it...
