The 9000 BTU smart-WiFi ‘COL1574’ slips effortlessly into busy modern life, rolling from a steamy bedroom on muggy August nights to a laundry room battling winter damp. Connect it to the app or use the handy remote and you can power up the portable air conditioner on your commute, arriving home to crisp, freshly dried air. Two fan speeds, a 24-hour timer and self-evaporating technology keep energy use sensible, while the R290 refrigerant means you can chill out with a clearer conscience. Whether you’re drying clothes faster, taming humidity that triggers allergies, or creating a cool workspace for back-to-back Zoom calls, this quiet AC unit lets you dial in comfort without permanent installation.

Housed in a compact white cabinet measuring 27 cm W × 32 cm D × 68.5 cm H and weighing 19 kg, the unit suits rooms up to 43 m³ and travels easily on castors. It runs on 220–240 V, uses R290 refrigerant and tops out at 65 dB. To keep performance peak, empty the continuous drain or water tank when prompted, wipe the exterior with a soft damp cloth, and rinse the dust filter every two weeks; store the exhaust hose loosely coiled when not in use to avoid kinks.
