"Soleus is bad for the environment" 2009-09-08
By K. Logan (Austin, TX United States)
Plastic fan blade disintegrated. Easy to replace if they would sell the part, but they do not sell parts. Bad move. I am certainly not going to replace it with another one of their products, or buy any product they sell. They have a very environmentally unfriendly approach to after warranty parts sales. This thing is going in the landfill for the lack of a plastic fan blade.

"Soleus LX-120 One summer is all you get" 2009-06-03
By Jennifer Mathews (San Jose, CA United States)
We purchased this portable air conditioner to make it through the heat waves here in Northern California. It worked one season. It rattled toward the end of the season and got louder and louder. This season it would not even come on. My husband opened it up and the gray plastic fan inside it is destroyed. We are over the warranty period so hoping we could fix ourselves. I called customer service. You must have a certified HVAC person order the part. They will not sell parts to customers!!! Avoid this product!!! Get a window unit.

"Avoid like the plague" 2007-08-30
By Sourkraut (Bay Area, Ca.)
I bought this because of its specs. Cooled close to expectations given the room and conditions. Worked for one summer. Summer #2 - after the warranty expired - the exhaust squirrel cage fan blades disentigrated. I believe the plastic fan housing warped allowing contact with the blades. Called Soleus to buy a replacement. Once the phone mail hell finally answered my call without hanging up, the obviously new customer service rep after several false starts finally advised me they do not sell parts but for $45/hr will troubleshoot and fix the system - just bring it in. They are in El Monte, Ca. I am not. Cheap materials - lousy support.
