Unit shuts down when small internal tank fills with condensation. Must empty/drain daily in warm weather, or weekly in mild weather. Drain is very close to floor. So close a deck of cards will not fit under drain. The unit weighs 65 lbs. It is very hard to lift, tilt and drain into a bowl, or can. I contacted customer service and asked for tips or suggestions. I was hoping that they could suggest something that others had used to solve the problem. Customer support said each customer must do what works for them. I heard,"You bought it, it's your problem, figure it out." I think I will try to find a small sturdy plant stand, or table to set the unit 4 or 5 inches off the floor. Then I can put a good sized pan or conainer under to drain and only need to empty the water once r twice a week. I hate standing on my head or crawling around on my knees trying not to slop water all over In fairness the unit preforms well, is sturdy, ez to use and all around very good. But now I need to build or buy some Rube Goldberg system to take care of a problem that could have been cured with bigger wheels, or some how raising the unit 2 or 3 inches before selling it to the public and making it the consumers problem. This would be a great unit if you had sloped concrete floors in a garage.

This unit is easy to set up , made well . It cooled an upstairs bedroom in a poorly insulated house , fairly large room at that , eventually got it down to 70 degrees .No problem with it spitting moisture or needing to be drained as it says in its item description,even in a high humid room.BUT ,is this thing LOUD . On the lowest setting its noisier than any other AC I've ever owned.I had it running 2 days and gave up on it ,Threw my old AC back in the window because I could not sleep through the noise this monster makes ,and Im a person that can fall asleep anywhere with a TV blasting .This thing kept me up 2 nights in a row .I had to shut it down.Its more suited for a large wreck room , cellar,garage, or outside enclosure where noise wont be an isssue and it can be pushed off into a far away corner !!Now I dont know what to do with it and Im $350.00 bucks lighter in the wallet ......
Im back to finish this review after this summer of 2013 . These portable ACs are not worth the money ! The design is flawed ! The hot exhuast hose is fed out the window ,but it is constantly re-warming the air in the room because it is so hot. Most very hot days ,this unit could NOT get the roon cooler than 80 degrees . I stuck this unit back in the box and said forget it !! Ordered an regular 8000 window AC from Walmart for $200.00 , What a difference in cooling! Finally its comfortable in the room....

This portable air conditioner is very loud when operating there is no low setting so the only choice is loud or off. Also according to the directions it needs to be sitting at least 18 inches from the wall so that leaves it sitting almost in the middle of the room.Honest reviews on AP12001S - EdgeStar 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner & Air
i had a 6000 btu unit in a window in this room.i decided to leave it there while i was installing the 12,000 edgestar portable AC.in a window alongside it. about 2:00 in the afternoon.i turned the portable on and shutoff the 6000 btu unit. the room got warmer by 12 degree's over the next 2 hours while the outside air got cooler. it is now 4:00 in the afternoon mid july in n.y. over the next few days i kept comparing the difference between both units. i decided to keep the 6000 unit in the room and put the portable in a smaller room.because it was too much of a bother to repack to return the unit.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for AP12001S - EdgeStar 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner & Air
