They can compete with normal conversation, and can be distracting if you're watching TV or listening to music.An LCD display is useful so you can see the cooling status without having to get up and look at the screen. With regard to the noise levels and the amount of water produced, I kind of fixed them both with one addition. This shows energy efficiency according to your location, as well as other things, including how noisy it is, its kWh use each year, and its cooling capacity. You can even move them around, with some limitations, so the same unit that cools your home office in the day can also keep your bedroom chilled at night.

Once hooked up, it mirrors the controls on the remote but also adds a useful scheduling function, where you can set exactly when you want the PAC to turn on and off, along with the mode and fan speed.

Any issues it has are mostly practical – the hose is short and AEG doesn’t supply a window kit – making this a cool, compact PAC with a smidgeon of style and a luxury feel.

Some portable air conditioners do give you an indicator of the room size they'll cover, but not regularly. We also test each PAC for noise levels at full power and in fan mode at the lowest setting, and measure power consumption at these settings to provide an idea of long-term running costs.

It runs at 52 decibels on maximum power, but has three speeds, so you can select the minimum noise level so your sleep won’t be disturbed if you’re using it in the bedroom. These power down the compressor and reduce the speed of any fans to make the PAC’s hum a little easier to sleep through.
