Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about TROTEC PAC 2100 X

  • Powerful cooling capacity for its size (2 kW)
  • Energy efficiency class A
  • Versatile functionality (cooling, dehumidification, ventilation)
  • Easy to use with a clear LED display and remote control
  • Effective at reducing humidity
  • Allows for a restful night's sleep with its dedicated night mode
  • It can be easily controlled
  • It has an automatic cooling mode that controls the cooling level depending on the ambient and target temperature
  • It has an integrated 24-hour timer to save on costs
  • It has an adjustable air discharge direction
  • It has a removable air filter to help with cleaning

What we don't like about TROTEC PAC 2100 X

  • No app control
  • It is a portable air conditioner and can be louder than a split air conditioner
  • It does not cool as well as a normal split air conditioner
  • It has a limited cooling capacity compared to some other, more powerful units
  • It is not recommended for very large rooms

Verdict

The TROTEC PAC 2100 X is a compact 3-in-1 mobile monobloc air conditioner designed for rooms up to 26 m² (65 m³), delivering a maximum cooling capacity of 2 kW (7,000 BTU/h) alongside ventilation (319 m³/h airflow) and dehumidification (1.8 L/h) modes. Operating with eco-friendly R290 refrigerant, a 1 kW power consumption, and holding an Class A energy efficiency rating, its prominent pros include an automatic condensation recycling system, an adjustable 17–35°C thermostat, a 24-hour timer, and an advanced "Follow-Me" remote control that measures local room temperatures. It also features a dimmable LED display and a specialized night mode for bedroom comfort; however, notable cons include its two-speed fan limitation and a maximum sound power level of 63 dB(A), which some users find too noisy for uninterrupted overnight sleep.
