Buying a cheap portable air conditioners can be great in the right situations but how do you know you are getting something that will actually be of use to you? There are so many to choose from now, from all around the world, the buying process can be quite baffling. The first tip is to know your needs before you set out. Ask yourself questions like which room(s) do you want to cool? Is it a single room or you have multiple rooms of a similar size? Do other people use the room or just you? Is it well shaded or does it heat up from sunlight? These considerations will all influence the power level you’ll need from your unit. For example, if your room is about 250 square feet and is well shaded, used only by yourself, and maybe you have a second similar room that also needs cooling then a cheap portable unit will be worth considering.

It’s important not to fall into the trap of saving money upfront and find that it’s an inadequate unit for cooling your rooms or that it is unreliable. If you take time to understand your requirements first then you can match the right unit by some careful research. Remember you get always what you pay for
