This portable air conditioner seems to be a dream, but in fact it is a disaster. The unit leaks water *badly*, as attested by most of the comments here and elsewhere on the Internet. You won't discover this immediately. If you run the unit occasionally, it may not collect enough water to be a problem. But if you use it on a regular basis, it *will* overflow, often with disastrous results.
Water, of course, is part of air conditioning. You can't cool air without water coming out, unless the air is absolutely dry. In-window units and central units simply pump or drop the water outside.
An in-house portable unit has to get rid of the water somehow. I suspect that the DeLonghi unit is designed to remove the water along with the hot air it is pumping to the outside. Whatever way it's *supposed* to work, it doesn't handle the amount of water you'd get by running an A/C for several hours each day.
I discovered this the hard way, by finding my carpet soaked through to the wood beneath. It's going to take $600 or more to repair a 6' x 8' patch in my bedroom.
I haven't even bothered to contact DeLonghi. My experience is that most companies respond to disasters like this by running in the opposite direction. We shall see.
In any event, *do not buy this unit*.

I purchased this DeLonghi PAC A120E a year ago when my wife and I needed a stand up air conditioner unit. I should have read the reviews here because it started leaking water all over our carpet and hardwood floor. This unit has been in operation for 3 months and it has broken down and has ruined a 150 dollar carpet. I have tried to contact the customer service for DeLonghi but it is useless. The nearest service center is 75 miles away from my house and is NOT open on weekends. The company does not pay for shipping or send a technician out. DeLonghi is unwilling to help or provide any kind assistance in this matter. Why should they? They already got paid. Our local repair shop will not touch these units and will cost about 200 dollars to replace the part. Please keep in mind this unit is still in warrantee. We are left with a VERY EXPENSIVE PIECE OF JUNK (a 700 dollar piece of junk). They say it is NOT their policy to ship or pay for shipping to their service center. Its a great scam. If I could give this product a negative number I would. SAVE YOUR MONEY. I will NEVER buy a DeLonghi product again. I just want to reiterate what an absolute inconvienece this is. It is the hottest week of the summer and my thermostat has reached 93 in my living room. So, thanks DeLonghi for that. I'm sweating as I type this and I bet your CEO is sitting somewhere very cool and perspiration free.
PS. I am not exaggerating and have not had any previous problems with DeLonghi, but they have been awful to deal with.

Before I buy products I use the trusty Amazon website. This was the only exception with this product as I went ahead and bought it after reading the reviews but thought that the leaking couldn't happen to me as I wouldn't think I'd get a defective unit. Well, lesson learned! Mine leaks all the time. We had to buy a siphon and a washing machine tray for it, spending more money. Too much work and not acceptable. I'll be returning it the store. Shame on DeLonghi for claiming "no drip" when that is simply not true. I wish they had just done the honest thing and make it where there is a small basin that is removable to put the water in. I would have accepted that. But too late and shame again! Will be returning the product tomorrow after the last 4 weeks of leaking when I only bought it 2 months ago.
Please save your money and buy from a company that does not make false claims.

We noticed the water before it created a major catastrophic buckling of our hardwood floors. We are going to return to a window model and eventually transition to a heat pump.
I wish I had read the other reviews before I picked it up.

The drain hole from the top catch basin is plugged to fix it you have to open the back panel and gently open the drain hole to the bottom tank that has the shutoff switch when it gets full it should auto shut off so you can drain it. I got mine as a demo floor model. When it drains it's a great little unit
