I have 2 portable aircons - both De Longhi Pinguino & they are both *fantastic*. They are "real" airconditioners, one of them has a water boosted action & a tube that you use to vent the hot air out a window/door. The other is a portable split system, so the fan part sits inside the room and it's connected to the split system by a long insulated tube thing that you can feed out thru a window or door. It's very powerful and can cool a large space like a large l-shaped kitchen/family room area. It was quite expensive but a godsend, especially if you're moving from rental to rental. The split system is quieter than the other but obviously cost a lot more so there's a payoff there.
I can't think when it gets too hot so it's been worth every penny here - but it was very expensive to run both of them day & night during the big heatwave we had in Jan so I think I'll be a bit more careful with their use from now on.
