Negative Positive
Title: Loud, LOUD, very very loud, and ultimately a source of infection!?
Review: I've had this unit for two years now, and while it does cool well and is feature rich (sleep timer, 0-100 fan speed settings, filter cleaning light), it was so loud we had to watch TV with headphones or have phone conversations in the other room. It would wake us up at night when it cycled up to full power to keep the room temp consistent with the thermostat setting.Additionally, it somehow (and I've never had this happen before) became an incubator for some sort of incredibly gross black mold, which has coated the entire interior of the unit (especially the air path), making it a spewing spore dispenser. I currently have a major respiratory infection which began the morning after running this unit for 6 hours overnight for the first time since last summer; my wife had a nasty cough all morning as well.I'm dumping it and getting a Kenmore 76081 - $200, much quieter, same specs, much better review record.
Is the review positive or negative?
