Verdict

The MEDION MD 37387 (Life E900) is a versatile 3-in-1 portable air conditioner designed for rooms up to 32 m², operating with eco-friendly R290 refrigerant and an Class A energy efficiency rating (1 kWh/60 min energy consumption). It delivers a 9,000 BTU (2.6 kW) cooling capacity alongside dedicated dehumidification (1 L/h capacity) and fan-only modes across 2 adjustable power levels, supported by a 360 m³/h airflow rate, a integrated dust filter, a 24-hour digital timer, and a dedicated sleep mode. Key pros include its multi-functional utility, convenient mobility via pre-assembled swivel castors, and an included window kit with a 1.5-meter exhaust hose for straightforward setup. However, notable cons include a relatively loud maximum noise emission of 65 dB that can disrupt sleep or television viewing, a poorly placed drainage outlet at the absolute bottom of the unit that forces users to elevate the entire device to easily drain condensation, and a window kit that some users find difficult to securely install.
