Recently purchased LS1500-6 Tried to use digital temp. kept fluctating 34-44-36 finally settled in at setting 69 after about 5 minutes. Ran for 30 to 45 minutes. Truned off. Tried again next day nothing works. Only “E2″ shows up on digital screen. Left for 30 minutes still no change. Unplugged and plugged a number of times but still nothing works. Just get “E2″. Help!!

I would like to Know what the LED display reads in the 80s
starting at 83 and stays on after you set the temperature you want, instructions do not cover this phase

Thankyou Bob Moreau

In the UK we had the “Trades Description Act”, whereby if somebody over there sold you an air conditioner that actually made the room hotter you could sue! This is a piss poor unit, badly made, badly put together, badly designed, it is a BAD buy! Kenwood had such a good name……….once! Switch your manufacturing to China and you suffer the consequences! Avoid this like the plague, save up a bit more, wait a bit, suck ice from the fridge, anything but buy this crappy little thing! Wait until you can afford the real deal, go to a store, test and try before you buy! The Internet is NOT the best place to buy stuff like this. CDs…yes! Books…yes! Get a proper unit from an American company!! Get in yer car, drive downtown, find a family firm, ask for “Pop” or “Mom”, listen to their advice, pay a bit more and you will get the benefit of their experience!

I’ve got this conditioner from Lowes, and I also got Maytag 9000 Btu Portable Conditioner from HomeDepot. I put them both in one room to compare.

Kenwood’s fan is weaker then Maytag’s but we descided to keep KW85 as it’s less noisy, and it is important for us, because it’ll be placed in baby’s room.

My husband and I bought this portable unit for a good price to assist in cooling our furnished and well insulated attic. We have a small window unit in place, but since temps have risen over 90 degrees it was not quite doing the job. When we hooked up this portable unit, it did not make the attic any cooler- in fact it increased the temperature! We ran the unit all day, thinking maybe it needed time to cool the air. The temperature in the attic never got below 90 degrees. We just turned it off about 15 minutes ago, and already the temperature has dropped. It does not have good cool air output (weak fan), and the exhaust hose produces so much heat that it seems to countereffect what little cool air it does put out. Please save yourself the headache of hauling this heavy thing into your house only to be disappointed. Buy something else.

Like others have said before me, the Engineer that designed the packaging for this unit needs to go back and get his degree again. This unit arrived with the box falling apart and was delivered upside down because the bottom was falling open. Parts were missing and the unit was broken.

This is not the type of unit you want to purchase and have delivered across the country.

I called Amazon (In India) and after several calls was able to get them to replace the unit with the Delonghi.

Comment on ‘Big Bertha’ 30,000 BTU 13″ Propane Stove Burner – Electric Start by James D. Head

James D. Head — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 17:06:17 +0000

I purchased the Big Bertha stove to fire up a large (7 quart jar capacity) pressure cooker for canning. Upon arrival, the stove was banged around during shipping and did not sit level upon a flat surface. I was able to file down the offending leg slightly and now it sits rock solid level. In operation, this stove gets hellishly hot, it can boil a full pot of water in minutes. The 6 ft gas hose is rather sticky and smells of plastic resins and chemicals. This stove works well, has a full range of adjustment and puts out sufficent heat for pressure canning purposes. You can set a large pot on this unit with the controls being accessable.
