Normally, I would not recommend the portable units, as they are usually
much more expensive, less efficient, and bulky, when compared to standard
window mount or through-the-wall mount AC units. Their sole redeeming
feature is ease of setup. In this case, the ease of setup becomes an
overriding factor.
Where I live, hurricanes are not a problem, so I use a window unit (and
it's almost time to install it again).
