I'd probably give it 3.5/5 if possible! It's actually a very good machine which seeks to break new ground in humble mobile air con design but some room for improvement. Accepting all mobile units are quite big, heavy and noisy to start with:
1. it looks good!
2. it's relatively tall with a smaller footprint although heavier than most.
3. the window kit is a great idea and whilst not perfect for typical UK windows, it works better than the rest.
4. A+ energy rating is good!
5. the remote whilst stylish has no display and you have to be close enough to the unit to see what you are setting.
6. you have to get really close to the buttons on the machine itself to see their functions.
7. the phone app isn't as easy to set up as it should be but works well.
8. they don't publish the units air flow (air volume) which means it's not easy to compare with similar units in terms of room size effectiveness.
9. it says not to use the unit in a room smaller than 12m2 but I think you will be ok if it's not sealed.
10. a few hours to get modest bedroom from a humid 28 to a comfy 22degC still leaves me a bit unsure of the air flow.
11. the box identifies anti-bacterial filters but they are not included and it's uncertain if they are available as an accessory in the UK.
12. I assumed there would be an advantage in having AEG for support but my support query is already a month without answer (but I sorted it myself).
Bravely innovative but some room for improvement
