Good replacement
by: JohnBoyJJH

Have only had it for a week but it’s working just fine. It’s an 8300BTU replacement for an old Kenmore 6,000BTU unit that didn’t have a very sensitive thermostat and I needed to constantly get up and adjust the dial. This has a remote control that allows adjusting from my chair that is most convenient. I purchased it from a local appliance dealer and since it was slightly larger by a couple of inches I paid for installation and a new sleeve. Installer did a great job, cleaned up and put molding inside. Very professional job and would recommend a professional installer for this job. Very happy so far but it’s new and works well. Time will tell how things work out but GE builds jet engines so hoping their AC’s are just as dependable but I bought a 5 year warranty to be safe. Fingers crossed.
Persistent clicking in humid conditions
by: Patty22002

The unit generally functions well and effectively cools the space. However, when the humidity is above 50% the unit makes persistent and varied clicking sounds, which are very irritating and at times quite loud. After the first unit did this, GE arranged for a replacement, but the second unit has the same issue. There appears to be no way to repair this. I would not buy this again.

This is a review for the GE air conditioner. First off with the sleeve that it came with was a breeze to install. Took me a few to figure out but once I got the hang of it. Works great. Still playing with all the functions and feature. Works powerful quiet and efficient.
