I have now had the unit for the 3rd summer and am very satisfied with it. This morning I installed it again and while it is now over 30 degrees outside, I have a pleasant 23-24 degrees in the flat. In the bedroom even 22 degrees. The noise level is okay. But I only use the unit when it's 30 degrees or more for a few days. I insulated the hose so that the hot air in the hose doesn't heat up the flat unnecessarily. In addition, I bought a thin clamping plate the size of my window for the exhaust hose, made a hole where I can put the hose in so that the hot air flows out, insulated the plate with polystyrene plates and mounted the whole thing on my window. This way, the hot air stays more or less outside, even though the window is open. I certainly won't win any beauty prizes with it, but it serves its purpose perfectly. The main thing is cool!

After two years of use in my 13m2 bedroom, nothing to say.
Easy to clean, not too noisy

Super climate fits everything as described. Noise level is in order. For me personally, the power cord is 50cm too short. Think but for many it is sufficient.
This huge glue on the front lise itself by some work. Hairdryer and a little nail polish remover away.

I was hesitating to buy it after I red all the reviews that it's very noisy and the fact that portable A/C's are not powerful enough, but it turned out to be a good investment. I live in a very hot area where it gets 30-33 at night which makes quality sleep nearly impossible (also I am an extremely sensitive light sleeper). This baby manage to reduce the temperature to bearing levels and significantly improved my sleep. It is true that it is a bit loud, the first night I put the settings on 24C and he was able to reach this temperature, so it would often turn on and off during the night. Which was really disturbing as I would wake up with every restart. But then I set it up to the lowest setting and it was constantly working without any disturbance. At first I used earplugs to sleep but then I got used to the sound so much that I didn't need any. In fact it works like a white noise machine, masking any sound from the street which I think is making my sleep more constant. SO if you have problems maintaining sleep during summer heat I would definitely recommend.
Pro
Very positive is how quiet it is and tested it this summer "2023". Middle floor with 3 bedrooms and a large bathroom. After 5h at max cool setting: Outside temp. 36 degrees. Inside 28 degrees. After 5 hours of operation just under 22 degrees inside.
Note that this unit is not designed for such large areas, but it did really well after 5 hours of operation.
Note: at 36 degrees outside temp. and 28 degrees inside after 5 hours at just under 22 degrees inside. This requires enormous power and that without emptying the condensation water tank! Top purchase recommendation
