i need to purchase a portable air conditioner. a 12,000 BTU unit
should be just the right size (just a bit larger than i actually
need).

i'd like the unit:
- to be well built
- have replaceable parts that i can order
- to be energy efficient


here are a few i'm interested in:

Sunpentown WA-1220M

one nice thing about the Sunpentown WA-1220M is that replacement parts
can be ordered:

does anyone know if there are any cons to self-evaporating units?

any opinions on what i should purchase? any other suggestions in
addition to what i've listed here?



thanks,
david

why not try some of the china branded stuff... much cheaper and quite reliable too..
