I have no idea how long this new SPT 8K will last, but we got it last night, assembled it pretty fast, and wham! after a few minutes, it was actually much cooler indoors than out, near hot downtown Los Angeles. Since my Toyotomi was a 10K, I was worried the 8K wouldn't work past the living room, but with the help of a regular fan, some 9 hours later, THE ENTIRE 2 BEDROOM APARTMENT is now below 70 degrees!!! We are ecstatic!
As is typical of portable AC construction, the window hose and connectors are a bit flimsy, but nothing some $15 3M aluminum tape can't fix... that tough tape is GOD for lots of other things around the house that need heat/cold resistant connection one can actually peel off later, so get it, even if you only need a little for this AC. But you could probably reinforce everything with duct tape or strong packing tape.
Recommend getting this little SPT AC if you're like us, and the apartment window casings are very thin. Our new AC made the front door with my horridly rough USPS delivery guy and hit the ground running, no sweat. The apartment is now finally cool after months of torture :) !
