Best Dimplex Portable Air Conditioners

the cons outway the pros when it comes to this so called portable aircon unit – Does an ok job of cooling but two HUGE gripes with this unit which means i CANNOT recommend it to others - as follows: 1) the outlet hose; ugg what… Read more

an absolute pain, it does not connect cleanly to the point that I've had to gaffa tape the hose at 2 points; the rear exhaust and then again at the window outlet. Terrible design.

Dimplex take note!! 2) dehumidifier - there is not collection point to empty out excess water, which means you have to come up with your own external hose AND collection solution in order to drain the excess water. When you're in QLD and it's 90% humidity this is entirely impractical. As another reviewer said - it would have cost the company next to nothing to at least include a drainage hose which you could then drain the water into an ice cream container I guess, but seriously who wants to do that??? What were you thinking Dimplex???

The mullet of air cons – The unit delivers cold air at the front, and hot air at the back. I had high hopes for this new technology, however the 3m x 3m room started at 26 degrees and after an hour of use, the room measured 34 degrees. I have since obtained a refund.
