Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about De'Longhi Pinguino PAC EM77

  • Cools down rooms quickly with effective 9,000 BTU output
  • Highly energy-efficient with a Class A energy rating
  • Easy to move between rooms using the pre-assembled castor wheels and handles
  • Versatile 3-in-1 functionality operating as a cooler, dehumidifier, and independent fan
  • Convenient control options via a soft-touch LED panel and dedicated remote control
  • No regular manual drainage required for the water tank during standard cooling mode due to an internal condensate recycling system

What we don't like about De'Longhi Pinguino PAC EM77

  • Operates with noticeable fan and compressor noise, making it too loud for some users to sleep comfortably nearby
  • Somewhat mediocre or uneven temperature distribution across larger room layouts
  • Heavy to carry up stairs or lift manually, weighing over 30 kilograms
  • Lacks modern smart home integration like Wi-Fi control or voice assistant compatibility
  • Window installation kit may not perfectly fit or seal all traditional non-sliding window styles out of the box

Verdict

The De'Longhi Pinguino PAC EM77 is a 3-in-1 portable air conditioner featuring a 9,000 BTU/h (2.1 kW) cooling capacity designed for rooms up to 70 m³ (approximately 25–35 m²). It operates as a cooler, a 3-speed fan, and a dehumidifier capable of removing up to 40 liters of moisture per 24 hours while utilizing eco-friendly R290 refrigerant gas. Main advantages include Class A energy efficiency with an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 2.6, an integrated 24-hour electronic timer, a convenient soft-touch control panel with a remote, built-in handles and castors for mobility, and a condensate recirculation system that minimizes the need to drain water manually. However, users point out that the unit is quite heavy at 30.5 kg, can be noisy during high-capacity operation reaching up to 63 dB(A), and the included window kit is primarily optimized for sliding or sash windows rather than casement styles.
