The air conditioning didn’t cool my small room. I had it at 64 degrees cool and for whatever reason it would switch to fan on its own. Very disappointed.

Does not get as cold as my old one

We'd like to assist with your window a/c unit's cooling performance. There are many factors that affect the cooling performance of your a/c unit. This model is designed for room sizes 150 - 250 sq ft. If your rooms size is larger than this, then the cooling performance would not be as effective. Also, to prevent airflow restrictions make sure that there are no curtains, blinds, or furniture blocking the front of the unit.

We want to help you with the sound level of your air conditioner. We recommend checking that the front grille is in good condition, the air filter is clean, and the unit is installed properly. Remove the grille and inspect it to confirm it is not damaged. If it is not broken, reinstall the grille. Make sure to check and clean the air filter, and remove any debris or dirt from the exterior of the air conditioner. You can clean the air filter by following the instructions on page 8 of the owner's manual here: https://images.salsify.com/image/upload/s--Y8eJn2g7--/xmxbwo6zyygoh2afarub.pdf Additionally, you can find installation information starting on page 9 and information on reducing the sound level of the unit on page 15 of said owner's manual. If the issue persists, we recommend contacting our warranty department at 833-426-3393.

Perfect small air conditioner!
The small air conditioner works well and was easy to install. The airflow is good and we’ve only had to use the low cooling as it is very efficient and low noise level ! Great buy for a small room air conditioner!

600BTU A/C
Definitely gets the room cool but is noisier than I expected. The fan set on LOW is just slightly quieter than HIGH. Also the directional levers only move left or right.

Cools well with great features
I like the eco/auto feature where the ac goes off & on when the weather isn’t too hot, but hot enough to use ac. It’s quiet & takes care of my 2 semi-small connected rooms.

Dependable ac for life
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The most reliable and probably will outlast any other ac out there. It does its job of cooling any small space. Energy efficient so I can have this on all day and maybe even at night because it’s quiet enough.

Great AC window unit, eco friendly & quiet!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently received the GE 6000 BTU Window Air Conditioner from Influenster in return for my honest review.I was beyond excited about this! We have horrible airflow in our home, since an addition was put on before we moved in. We ended up finding that we don’t get a lot of airflow in our back bedrooms, only in the main part of the house, which is difficult during NC summers! This was a wonderful surprise to have received this product!! It’s electric, a lot different from our last air conditioning system. It’s also eco friendly, it’s actually pretty quiet considering. Besides the system, I think I was most excited about the remote control! So smart!! The system itself came damaged, the backside was smashed in a bit. I believe it was due to the delivery of the system. Nevertheless, it still works. Installation and setup was so simple! It fits perfectly in our window and it was easy to put in. The air that comes out is very cool and nice, it’s also a LOT quieter than our last AC Unit! Grateful to have this, I would definitely recommend GE window air conditioner unit!!

All was well until the two side curtains broke
These are great for small to Medium size bedrooms. However, I am highly disappointed that both side curtains broke. Not happy about that

A Have Flexible Cooler That Any Household Should H
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an ideal choice for anyone in need of a flexible cooling solution. It's user-friendly, requires no complicated installation, and provides targeted cooling for specific areas or zones. This product is particularly well-suited for the following groups: - Students, temporary renters, and residents of apartments or condominiums (like my family): it requires no wall drilling or complex installation, and is easy to transport when moving to a new residence - Small shops, kiosks, and temporary offices: given the small and non-permanent nature of these business spaces, investing in a wall-mounted air conditioner would be both costly and unnecessary.

Installation was a little tricky, but it works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this GE window air conditioner from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. We have one room in our house that was added on after the house was built and they didn’t connect it to the AC in the house. It is the room that we use to get into the house and it also houses all of my husband’s 3D printing things. In the summer it can get pretty warm and stuffy. It is a really small room, about the size of a walk in closet, so I knew this unit would be fine to cool the entire room. Installation was a little tricky and took both my husband and me to get it in the window. I’m not sure how you’d do it from a room not on the first floor because my husband had to go on the outside and push it through the window. Maybe there is a way and we just aren’t experienced enough. As far as functional, it works as it should. It cools the entire room and keeps it cool.

Stay cool with this unit.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This air conditioner works very well, it wasn’t too heavy and it is perfect for the room. It has a very nice and long power cord so you can reach outlets that are further from the window. I love the smell that comes out from this unit, reminds me of one we had when I was a kid. The airflow is very steady and it works as it should. I live that is a 5,000 btu so it will consume less energy than others rated at higher btu output.

Great air conditioner
I love my new GE air conditioner. My house is a 200 square foot tiny house. This air conditioner is great in every way. It’s not too noisy, so it doesn’t interrupt what ever I’m doing. The temperature is right on the spot.

This model is really great at providing cool air while also being quiet and efficient. You've made a great choice for your space. We're big fans of the Eco mode, which automatically turns off the fan and compressor when the room is cool enough, reducing your utility costs. All around, we know this unit is going to help keep you cool for many years to come.
