Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Another terrible GE product

MLM111 8/15/2026

Unit cooling failed. Other systems still functioning, but not what we need. GE used to be a good appliance manufacturer. Not now. Terrible product(s), terrible service, and terrible administration of their ™€œwarranty™€. Be Smart; Avoid all GE products. Look to Mitsubishi or LG instead.

Good for a small space

Jkb24 7/13/2025

The unit itself is highly power efficient and works well, but the window screen is very cheaply built and there isn't nearly enough foam to insulate properly. All the cost goes to the ac unit and the extras are cheap. Wouldn't recommend running in a bedroom at night, as it's a bit too loud for a small space. Overall pleased

Portable air conditioner

Diamond666 7/4/2025

It was difficult connecting the exhaust hose to the vent, the hose keep falling off, doesn't get cold as I thought it would, I have a 5000btu mastercraft ac which put out more cold air than this GE portable air conditioner 😞

Extremely loud noise

Nora1986 8/28/2024

It cools OK, not great, but ok. Recently has started making noise and I can't figure out the cause. I drained it, cleaned the filters, waited several hours before turning it back on and it still makes the noise. It was quiet before, now it is so loud I can't sleep.

Cools a small room, but I have some complaints™€¦

KimmyNC1981 6/7/2023

I™€™ve had this unit for what is now our second summer. Pros: fairly easy install, cools well, no emptying water (under normal conditions) Cons: Loud, Bright blue display that cannot be toggled off for sleeping (dumbest thing GE ever did), lowest temperature setting it can be set to is 64. Mind you, my room won™€™t get cooler than 66 and the unit is well large enough for my square feet. GE would have good products if they would take the time and consider what a person would actually desire out of their unit. The bright blue display that can™€™t be turned off is enough for me to never buy one again!

Early Days but does an adequate job.

Luv2rept 8/25/2022

Former home had central air conditioning, so if you are used to central air, you may not be satisfied. It does an adequate job of cooling a small room, however I find the ™€œdry™€ feature is even cooler than the AC.

Kemsun 8/6/2022

Love the GE Air conditioner, works perfectly. Only drawback is that the remote has NEVER worked. Didn't mind so much before I became disabled. I tried to purchase a new remote from GE, but remote never came. Capital One was able to get my money back though.

Great unit

Cool in seconds 8/5/2022

This unit is working great in our unusually high temperatures and instantly starts to cool the room when it's first turned on. We are very pleased. Extra panels would be nice for elongated windows, however - we had to improvise the installation to accommodate our window. Also, it would be nice if the vent tube was insulated to minimize the heat output.

Went back after two weeks

Tweety72 10/7/2021

Worked great for about two weeks, I think but it never tracked the temperature in the room as stated in the manual. Itcame with batteries I stalledin remote, which I found odd, Duracell of all things. However, after two weeks or so, stopped blowing cool air. Would blow air for about 5 minutes then quit. Checked water level, empty… no error codes, Just quit… I think someone sold us a bad one that was brought back as the batteries were a clear give away…very odd. Therefore, since never worked right from beginning with temp readings and since it quit working after about two weeks, I have to give it one star. It was very disappointing.

Mike18880 9/23/2021

I purchased this product during the extreme summer of 2021 and units were scarce as a result. I have sliding windows so this type of A/C would install within an hour. It made a miserable summer very bearable for my dog and myself, I should have gotten one far sooner. It blows air with sufficient force that my ceiling fan spins slowly from the breeze. The air filter is just a rinse off type under a faucet. Very well thought out design. The size was adequate for making my home comfortable in the living room.
