The GE 5,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner is pretty good at cooling smaller rooms, like a small bedroom or a cozy living room (up to about 150 sq. ft.). It has two cooling modes and two fan speeds, so you can adjust it to your liking.
According to the manufacturer's description, it's effective at cooling these smaller spaces and isn't too noisy, which is great if you need it on at night. You can tweak the fan and cooling settings manually, which is a nice touch.
Plus, installing it is pretty simple with the included EZ Mount window kit. Just make sure your window dimensions are within W 21.875 - 36 x H 13.375". You might want to use additional mounting brackets for extra stability, but that's just for peace of mind and better performance over time.
Our research shows that most people think it's good at keeping a room comfortable even in hotter weather. One person even mentioned it kept their room cool when it was 108°F outside by setting it to a mid-range temperature and using the low fan cool mode. It might take a bit longer to cool the room if it's super hot, though.
As for noise, it's quieter than some older models, but you will notice some noise when the compressor kicks in. Overall, if you need to cool a small space, this unit seems to be a solid pick—efficient, easy to install, and straightforward to use.
