    We have two small A/C upstairs in our current place, of the cheapest kind available. Unfortunately we do not have the original remotes, and it looks like they are not that good anyway (they are pretty beaten up by previous guests).

    I am bothered by the one in the bedroom because it is impossible to stop the flap so that the cold air flow won't hit us directly while we sleep, and because since it is a older model, it simply spits very cold air, then stops when it reaches the temperature, and gets back on when the temperature rises again. I was told that inverter A/C, albeit more expensive, have better performances and a smoother functioning.

    Do you have any experience with this and what brand would you recommend in Argentina?

    Since my older unit is still working, do I have any chance to sell it?

    After our apt mgr told us that our 2nd tv no longer worked, we asked if we could get it out of the way by putting it in the back stairs alcove used only by us, until a decision was made about possible disposal. But no. Because “someone might steal it.”

    So I’d say you could certainly sell your spitting air conditioner.

    Here we are again. Our very old A/C in the bedroom is having difficulties in heating up the air. It spit a very hot air for a few minutes, and then goes silent. It has no issue with the cooling function, though,

    In 3 hours, 2024 May's Hot Sale begins. So far, the best price we found is - again - the same model/brand/store where we bought the two A/C units for our STR.

    Sensei inverter

    If anyone is curious, we paid 179,999 ARS or 385 USD for it last year. Right now it is 507,599.00 or 508 USD.

    Our criteria are still the same: inverter & cheapest!

    Let's see if we get lucky again.

Thank you for the support!
