By Anthony I've owned one of the Danby 12,000 BTU air conditioners (model DPAC 12030) for two years now. A unit of this size struggles to cool a 400 sq.ft. room a few degrees (with 30ºC outside, window curtains drawn). I find the best way to use it is to have the air blowing directly toward me. My main complaints about the unit are: * After a few months of use the small LED display, which is needed to operate the unit, slowly went dim to the point of not being able to read it. After many phone calls to Danby I was finally able to get the display replaced under warranty by a local electronics service company. But a few months later the display went dim again - as though Danby hadn't bothered to upgrade this obviously faulty component. To their credit, Danby agreed to replace the display one more time out of warranty. * The air coming out of the unit had a strange smell of oil for the first season. The service company said that sometimes the compressor leaks oil and it was probably the smell of the oil burning off of the compressor housing. * The unit is not real quiet. For the first year there was a rattling noise that occurred when the compressor kicked in, but this noise seems to have gone now. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Dont waste your money By P. SUSSMAN This item is a piece of junk! Cheap parts and poor construction make it a nightmare to operate and a problem waiting to happen. Within first month the thermostat stopped working. It will barely cool 400 SQ. Ft..and it is way too noisy. Customer service is very poor as well. Stay away from this turkey. If you buy it don't lose your receipt. You will need it. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Cools Adequately By Terry Dickson I bought this Danby Portable Air Conditioner Model Number: DPAC120068 a couple of months ago from a different supplier. I use it in my bedroom and have the rest of my apartment unairconditioned. It gets up to over 100 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and my room stays cool at 73 degrees. Dual Hose feature appealed to me so that no negative pressure is created bringing in hot air into to the room from outside. It was easy to install with everything needed included in the box except foam insulation standard for AC window units. I did not have to drill any holes into the window sill which is required for window units. I was disappointed that the unit still uses the old refrigerant R22, which means I will not be able to service the unit myself. The unit knocks a little when it first starts up but quickly quiets down. I do not know if this is normal. The knocking is irritating but it has not woken me up or kept me from sleeping. The water tank can and will fill up at humid times when the external coils cannot evaporate such a large amount of water. Luckily it is a very large tank and will take a long time time to fill. Overall, I am happy with this unit. There is a remote control which I have no use for. If the power should go off for more than a few minutes, Danby says that it will forget all settings, so do not be surprised if you come home from work to a hot room. I am giving 3 stars out of 5 because of the old R22 refrigerant, lack of memory for power interruptions, and brief knocking. . See all 8 customer reviews...
