I bought this air conditioner about a year ago at Sears for the price of around $89.00. For someone who rents a small apartment in a place where the summers get to be in the mid 90's- it was the best investment I think I could have made.
I ran it continually (on high) from July until October of last year, kept it in the window through a brutal winter and it snapped back on with no problems after it became needed again this past April/May.
After I used and abused it all of last year the filter easily was able to be taken out and cleaned then put back in with the results that I saw after I first bought the thing. It easily cools the entire small apartment down and I miss the humming it makes when I don't have it during the winter!
All in all, it's a great value and a great air conditioner to have if you live in a small place or just want one room cooled. As for energy costs, my heating bill is higher than the summers with the 'air' on.
