WindmillThe Windmill AC Modern Air Conditioner - Easy Install - Includes User Friendly App - Ultra-Quiet and Voice-Enabled 8000 BTU Window Air Conditioner

I live in an old house that gets hot and humid very quickly in summer. I've tried so many other window units, and this is by far the best! It looks great (both from the inside and outside view) and was super easy to install. It cools down my place quickly and quietly - I have it in the window in my living room, and it easily cools the entire common space: living room, side room, dining room, and hall. The best part is how quiet it is! I can sit on the couch essentially directly next to it and still be able to hear the tv or have a chat with friends. Honestly, the first time I plugged it in and turned it on, I thought it was broken because I could barely hear it, but it turned out it's just *that* quiet, especially compared to other units I've used. I love the bluetooth functionality as well. I can go on the app when I get out of work, turn on the AC remotely, and by the time I get home, it's nice and cool. Other reviews have mentioned the internal thermometer is off by a few degrees, and while this is true, it hasn't had any impact on the unit working for me. If you're on the fence, I absolutely recommend this product!

Easy to install in bedroom window, works well andCooled nicely.Very quiet operation, didn’t disrupt my sleep.A/C is well made and looks nice in the window.

we haven’t had a window unit before and were nervous about installation but this was so easy to set up! kit comes with everything you need including easy to follow instructions, scissors/tools and adjustable cosmetic panels so it looks super clean. the unit itself is super quiet and efficient at cooling our one bedroom apartment down quickly. the app connection was was simpler than i expected and works flawlessly so far, i really like that you can turn it on/off from outside your apartment as i’ve forgotten to do so before leaving at times. overall highly recommend!!update: it’s been a few months and we couldn’t love this ac more :) has worked like a charm and kept us nice and cool even in summer heat waves !!

I don’t quite know where to start. From the first start up, the unit shakes so much for a brief moment when the compressor turns on that it rattles against the window loud enough to wake me from a dead sleep despite requiring 7 screws directly into your window and frame. I had to add additional support below and on the sides to stop it from shaking on startup.One of its biggest selling point, the inverter, also somehow results in the unit running so slowly that it sounds like someone is playing a bass tone on a subwoofer throughout my apartment (only noticeable to those sensitive to sounds).The front panel is warped and held on by weak magnets meaning it also rattles if not put in place JUST right. It’s super quiet other than that…The carbon filter is a joke. It takes up about 10% of the entire intake and a brief smoke test showed almost all air was pulled from around the filter.The firmware is not even currently on version 1.0 and it shows. It requires a Windmill account for any functionality (most WiFi enabled ACs do but it’s another relatively new, unproven company hoarding your data).It doesn’t maintain previous settings such as cool vs eco, set temp, or fan speed on startup. Similarly, night mode only stays on for one night at a time and is buried deep in the settings that are not intuitive to find. Why not just put the slider on the main page taken up by 50% advertisements for your local utility company?Not sure if the unit is at fault or the app is bad but it tends to hover about 5 degrees above where it’s set in app. With the app’s energy meter, you can see it actively NOT using the full capacity despite also not being anywhere close to the set temp.While the energy meter should be a cool feature, anything other than the real time readout is hilariously inaccurate with my unit using 500 watts for 3 hours straight and then reporting an average of 287 watts over that same time period.Every encounter I’ve had with this company including the app, customer service, and the unit itself shows that this is just another tech startup with too large a marketing budget. I’d never recommend this AC to anyone.

The two 8000 but units that we purchased have worked well this last season. They are reasonably quiet compared to the window ac units we've had over the years. What I really like is that the cool air comes out the top instead of in your face. It circulates the air better and no shutters to clean or break.They are as easy to install as any standard window unit, and the side panels make for a neat installed look. The app is good, though both units had instances where the room temp display froze up on the app and wouldn't update until the units were unplugged, then plugged back in. Otherwise the app is pretty informative. The remote works fine, but as it's an infrared unit the range is limited. The magnetically held filter cover is pretty trick, and the filter is the same type as you'd find in a split system, plus the charcoal filter.After running them this summer I'm impressed. They're not perfect, but nothing ever is in this world. If the app was flawless, and with an rf remote it would have earned 5 stars.

It was super easy to install, looks great (sleek and modern) and comes with all the parts to assemble, including a scissor! It’s very quiet and gets my entire living room cold within seconds. No leakage and not too heavy. The app is also really great and easy to control, I can turn the AC on while I’m on my way home, so it’s cold when I get there. Can’t recommend it enough, especially in this heatwave!!

I was in the market for a new AC unit for my NYC studio apartment and am very happy with my Windmill purchase. It fits so nicely in my window and doesn't take up so much space like my old unit so the design is really nice. It's SO quiet and has kept my apartment perfectly cool, especially in the recent NYC heat wave. I had a quick question on install and the support team was responsive and super helpful. This is my second windmill purchase-- I also have the fan and air circulator which is another GREAT purchase. Highly recommend this awesome brand!
