    Hi,
    performed with 56% at bottom third (61 tested).
    Far better value is : Mitsubishi Heavy SRK20ZMXA-S, only 20% more expensive but with 84% rated number 2.
    Cheers

    • Thanks much appreciated. It is only $599 so this made it very attractive. It is only for my bedroom so I don't need it be the best. Does it mention noise?
      Will check out the mitsubishi

    I have nothing to post about the ACs but I think it's wonderful that RobMel has been so helpful.

    So a big +1 to RobMel

  • perhaps open the purse a bit and pay for the content you're after?

    choice is independently funded and requires people to become members in order to fund their research - support the system or don't use it

  • What happens when Choice can't afford to carry out tests because people leech off it instead of supporting it?

    It is funded 100% by people like most of us here, who believe that paying for testing and consumer advocacy pays off in the long run.

    Hi,
    I am sure alwasis will buy Choice membership if he/she is after more than a a high level summary for single product out of a single test.
    Consider it free advertising for Choice.

    Enjoy your day and smile :)

  • Choices's ratings for air conditioners (and many other things) are weird. They pay no attention to loudness. Noise is a major consideration for me and, I'm sure, my neighbours. I asked them about it but never got a reply.

    At least that was the case when I looked a year or two back when I had a subscription.

    Choice is very interesting and is available at the public library.
