Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Hisense New Comfort 2AMW42U4RRA

  • Highly energy-efficient inverter technology that minimizes electricity consumption.
  • Excellent heating capacity, functioning reliably even when outside temperatures drop down to -15 °C.
  • Equipped with high-quality, dual-rotor compressors that provide quiet, balanced, and insulated operation.
  • Fast and smooth compressor start-up system.
  • Multi-split versatility, allowing connection of up to 1-2 indoor units.

What we don't like about Hisense New Comfort 2AMW42U4RRA

  • Requires professional installation due to multi-split configuration requirements.
  • Higher initial upfront cost compared to standard single-split or portable AC units.
  • Complex repairs in the event of power surges, which can require specific replacement parts like motherboards.

Verdict

The Hisense New Comfort 2AMW42U4RRA is a multi-split outdoor air conditioning unit featuring a 4.1 kW cooling capacity, a 4.5 kW heating capacity, and full DC inverter technology utilizing eco-friendly R32 refrigerant. Its main characteristics include an efficient twin rotary compressor, electronic expansion valve control, a compact 730x536x260 mm footprint weighing 34 kg, and low-voltage operational stability. The primary pros are its excellent multi-zone flexibility supporting up to two indoor units, energy-saving performance (A++ cooling/A+ heating efficiency), an automatic defrosting cycle, and a quiet indoor operation capability of down to 19 dB when paired with compatible units. However, its notable cons include a relatively high outdoor unit noise level of up to 62 dB(A) during peak load and a requirement for professional multi-line installation.
