Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about LG LP1025WHSM

  • Provides quick and impressive cooling performance in medium-sized rooms
  • Excellent smart control integration via the LG ThinQ mobile app, Alexa, and Google Assistant
  • Versatile 4-in-1 functionality with cooling, heating, fan, and effective dehumidification
  • Maintains a very steady temperature without harsh on-off cycles
  • Equipped with smooth-rolling casters and side handles for easy room-to-room portability
  • Sleek, modern design and sturdy, well-made build quality
  • Auto-swing air vents distribute airflow evenly throughout the space

What we don't like about LG LP1025WHSM

  • The window installation kit can be tedious to set up and has limited extension flexibility
  • The power cord is relatively short, which heavily restricts placement near windows and outlets
  • Can be noticeably noisy, especially when running on high fan speeds
  • More expensive than many direct competitors with similar cooling capacities
  • Supplemental heating functionality fails to perform efficiently when outdoor temperatures drop below 40°F
  • The physical digital display on the unit can be awkward or difficult to read depending on placement

Verdict

The LG LP1025WHSM is a versatile 4-in-1 smart portable air conditioner designed for medium to large rooms up to 450 sq. ft., featuring a cooling capacity of 10,200 BTU (SACC) / 14,000 BTU (ASHRAE) alongside a 12,000 BTU supplemental heat pump, a dehumidifier extracting up to 4.01 pints per hour, and a multi-speed fan. Main advantages include year-round climate flexibility, an auto-swing air vent for even airflow, exceptionally quiet operation reaching as low as 44–48 dB, and seamless Wi-Fi integration via the LG ThinQ app for Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice controls. However, notable drawbacks include a relatively high power draw of 1,210 watts for cooling and 1,300 watts for heating on a standard 115V circuit, a slightly cumbersome first-time exhaust hose setup requiring manual assembly of the end caps, and the potential need for manual water drainage via the rear port during periods of extreme, prolonged ambient humidity.
