Prized for like 9 whole days of the year on average in the UK, but what an impact it's had on those days. Portable air conditioners fly-tip the heat and humidity from any room straight out of the window. They do the job and while I'm happy with mine, such convenience comes at the cost of other comforts which you have to be aware of before you buy.
Links to buy the unit I got (I sometimes receive commission if you buy via my links, but I have a dayjob anyway so I ain't gonna starve if you don't, but thanks nonetheless):
Appliances Direct (14,000 BTU version): tidd.ly/4dmIPSs
Amazon (more expensive): amzn.to/2V3PXAK
This particular portable unit is the ElectriQ EcoSilent 12000 BTU which really pulled me through the mid-July scorcher we just had in 2021. With another round of biscuit-melting weather due in August, I'm happy to have it. It's also going to be essential kit for when I'm doing my sim racing and general exercise, too. Aircon is rare in UK houses as it rarely gets hot enough to warrant a full install, so this is my way of fighting back without committing to a permanent installation.
