Portable Air Conditioner, 8,500 BTU, BPACT05SM, White | 5,100 BTU SACC for Rooms Up To 350 Sq. Ft., 3-in-1 Portable AC, Fan and Dehum with Full Function Remote Control & Window Kit

I've been using this AC unit for 3 weeks now and have been very impressed with it. The dehumidify feature is fantastic and the fact the water goes out the exhaust vent instead of needing to be drained regularly is next level. The sleep mode is great and keeps the room temperature perfect throughout the entire night. The window kit fit my window perfectly and I was able to easily get a perfect seal around it on my window which was a huge thing for me with the help of some tape. It is a very powerful unit that easily cools my room without needing to constantly run the compressor. I believe its claim of handling up to 350 square feet easily, it could possibly do more. For my use case I no longer wanted a window unit and this is a perfect alternative. I love that I can select a temp and the unit will maintain the room there on its own. The sound level is comparable to a hotel ac unit its not quiet by any means but its not ridiculously loud either. Similar to a loud box fan but also consistent with no loud rattling. I'm used to sleeping with the white noise so I find it soothing at night. The filters are easy to slide out and clean, I like how they are positioned in the unit they will catch any incoming debris. I saw in some reviews people received theirs with the wheels broken but this was not the case with mine all 4 are intact and working fine. Value for money wise I don't think I could have found a better unit this one is perfect for my use case cooling a bedroom during the summer this thing moves air. Also a tip for anyone using this unit if you're using fan only mode do not use the vent hose, the fan air blows the hardest out of the vent hose port on fan only mode it is an incredibly powerful fan. Another tip is the unit really only needs using on the lower fan speed setting. It is quieter, moves tons of air, more efficient, and in AC mode the air has more time to pass over the cooling services allowing the air to become cooler before exiting the unit. I typically don't write product reviews but I was so impressed by the unit and blown away at the low rating that I had to include my own. I can tell the low 4 star product rating is from the broken wheels mainly and that is an unfortunate flaw for many but it appears to have been fixed on the packaging for the unit now. Black + Decker or Amazon if you want to hook with up with more AC units to test out this summer I'll gladly accept, review, and post videos!

At first I thought this was going to be a great little ac unit, it cooled very well. I bought it for my husband to have in his office so that while he’s gaming he can keep the room cold (we live in Florida and do have good ac in our house but in the summer it gets hot plus a large gaming pc 🥵) For about 3 months it worked great then all of a sudden it just didn’t cool anymore. I did all the normal maintenance on it like draining it, checking the filter, etc. to see if those were the issue. All were normal, no excess of water or dust but yet it still won’t cool. So I put in a ticket with black and decker on May 23rd to which I did get a follow up email quickly asking for pictures and videos of specific things. I sent those to them the same day and I have yet to hear anything else from them. I have sent 2 more emails following up with no response. I do not suggest getting this ac just due to the lack of help from black and decker if you do have an issue.

I was skeptical about getting this A/C. In the description it said it was 8500BTU. But when I got the box it says 5100 BTU. I learned later that there are TWO different BTU standards, so it is actually BOTH. Upon opening the box, I got aggravated when I saw 5100BTU. I had specifically been avoiding 5000BTU units because my room is 315 SqFt, and sits above a hot garage, which is above a 5K BTU unit's normal capabilities. I decided to go ahead and plug it in, thinking I'd probably have to return it. NOT. This unit DELIVERS. It cooled all 315 sq ft down in 15 minutes. Now, it's absolutely not noiseless. But I can live with the noise. I just set the blower on HIGH to cool the room down then put in on LOW to keep the temperature maintained. This unit DELIVERS. Will it cool a room down to 65 degrees? Not sure because I like my rooms in the middle 70's. But my once 84 degree room now sits at a pleasant 75 without the unit continually running. Very pleased.

The unit works well and cools the room nicely with good airflow. It’s a little noisier than I expected but not too bad. I took off one star for the construction of the exhaust duct. The window frame that holds the duct to the window is thin plastic and doesn’t hold the duct in place well. The caps for the ends of the duct don’t fit well and don’t stay on. I had to resort to duct tape. Overall I’m happy but a little more quality in the assembly would go a long way.

Bought this a while ago and hasn't failed me in the year and a half that ive had it. Kept my studio apartment cold and now the room im in since i moved cold as well. Nothing but positivity from this product and well worth the money!

The unit itself works great for my small apt. ( 800 sq. ft. studio ... I mean it's COLD in here even with this heat wave of 100 degrees YAAAA!!! ) ..>> BUT.. >> The venting hose to attach to the unit itself and out the window is majorly flawed in that the ends of it DO NOT Securely screw into the hard plastic receptacles ...So I had to duck tape them on..UGH...they SHOULD Have hard plastic screw-ins Attached TO THE HOSE itself as to be able to easily & securely attach them!!! I think it's Dangerous if the hose were to fall off in the middle of the night ALL that exhaust would come into the room... Not OK..They NEED to FIX THIS!! Also it'd be nice if they offered a larger window attachment for a sliding glass door..80-90 inches as sometimes (like in my situation too ) people only have that option. I would have given 5 STARS if it weren't for the hose attachment flaw.

Amazing ac. It cools down the room instantly and it's become so cold that we have to turn it off for some hours throughout the day. Wish we got it sooner for the beginning of summer. Easy to set up

DO NOT PURCHASE!!! Bought it last summer and it worked great, hooked it up again this year and it worked for a couple weeks and then conveniently stopped blowing cold air within days of the full warranty expiring. Filed a warranty claim (parts are still under warranty) and was told they would respond within 24hrs, after two days of no response, I had to call the support line only to be told they needed more information that wasn’t requested in the original claim. Sent the requested information and again did not get a response and had to call again. During the second call I was told that it was no longer under warranty (not true) and they could not help me. Finally got an email response after attempting to use the virtual chat, but was told that I would need to contact a local appliance repair and have it certified that the part is defective at my own cost, which even if it is determined that the part is defective, will end up costing more than just purchasing a new unit. Garbage product and terrible customer support. Do not purchase!

Love this AC unit (8500 BTU). It's surprisingly efficient. But please take note the window kit IS FOR A SLIDING WINDOW frame, NOT for rolling windows. Otherwise I would've given it a 5 stars rating.
