Good Points: Nice design, soild feel, good cooling power, well thought out filter system, great after sales service form the Amcor help line.

Bad Points: Like all A/C unite, you wish it was a little more quite, you wouldn't want to take it up the stairs too often.

General comments: The Amcor AMC10000 is a good priced air conditioner, at 10,000 BTU it cools my livingroom/dinner to a comfortable level within about 30 minutes, and so long as you have the curtains closed where the sun is coming through it will make the room feel very cool within 1 hour.

I had purchased a cheaper A/C from Argos which was there own brand and it was useless even if it was 9,000 BTU, with anything you buy you get what you pay for and the Amcor unit I purchased does a great job for the money.

The amount of moisture it removes from the air is quite amazing, in two hours you can empty easily 1 litre of water from the drainage tap round the rear of the unit, plus you also get a water collector tray for easy collection, plus foam strips so if you exhaust the hot air like myself, where the window is open there's a hole in the foam for the exhaust pipe to go through, then you just adjust the window so the foam fits snugly, therefore stopping hot air breaching the opening.

My room is 20ft long by 13ft wide and 7.1/2ft high so it's well within the limits of this unit.

Like all portable air conditioners there never going to give you the chill like going into a high street shop in the middle of summer where you physically get goose bumps, there not supposed to work like that, but they will make the room very comfortable and cool compared to the heat outside.

You will find after being in a room for about 30 minutes you get used to how cool it is so therefore its just comfortable temperature, this is because you body has got used to the temperature of the room concerned, however once you go outside will you realise just how cool it is, as on a hot day the outside heat will hit you in the face, and once you have been out there for a few minutes and come back inside only then will you realise just what a great job the AMC 10,000 does to the climate of your house.

Well worth every penny!

I bought the Amcor AMC 10000 portable Air Conditioner from my local Comet. My flat has very large windows and consequently gets very hot during the summer, so I decided to buy an air conditioner.
The model I picked was mid priced when I bought it (£270) although now it is the entry level model in the Comet online store.
The unit vents externally so has a large plastic pipe that comes out the back similar to a tumble dryer. Luckily I have an existing vent in my wall for this purpose - alt ...
