Amcor 16,000-BTU Portable Air Conditioner - Silver (PLM16000E) Review
Amcor 16,000-BTU Portable Air Conditioner – Silver (PLM16000E) Review from Carlye R Nystrom. Put it on a platform and get a big bucket, If you don’t live in the desert, this won’t work for you. It has major design flaws.
1. There is a Reset button on the plug. When the air conditioner decides to turn itself off (just after you have gone to sleep) make sure that you have access to it. It can go off sometimes every 10 minutes. Hope you didn’t want uninterrupted sleep. When you press the reset button, the bright blue light on the front goes on (you can turn it off if you get up and press the buttons on the front). I suggest taping a piece of dark cloth over the light.
2. The water tank holds about 2 cups. On a humid hot day it will fill up in about an hour or so. If you try to move the air conditioner at all, it will leak all over your floor or carpet. Hope you have a good carpet cleaner with an extractor.
3. The best way to deal with this air conditioner is to put it up on a platform and let it constantly drain into a bucket. A measly 2 gallon bucket fills up in about 3 hours. Hope you didn’t plan to sleep all night, or you’ll wake up to a flood. The best suggestion is to leave it in a shower and vent it out a bathroom window. Hope you don’t mind sleeping in the bathroom.
4. It’s not exactly quiet, but if it’s hot enough, you’ll go to sleep anyway. Just keep an eye on the bucket…
