Very pleased with the delivery time of my portable air conditioning unit during a heatwave. Couldn’t work out why the accessories were delivered separately,I’m sure there’s good reason.

AVOID!
Pathetic customer service and a horrible scam are being run. Paid almost 1k for a portable air-con and extra for delivery on a specific date. The item was then unlisted, and no communication. I called to be told it's out of stock, no help. After complaining, the advisor gave me another date. I called again today to ensure everything is delivered, to be told they can't help. They stole my money and never delivered any products.
Edit: I did finally receive all the ordered items 4 days after the review. Still stand by my initial review however.

Could not fault them!
I had a great experience with Aircon Direct from start to finish. Ordering a portable air conditioning unit was quick and easy through their website. The estimated delivery date shown when I placed the order was exactly when it arrived.
The delivery process was excellent. I received a delivery time window the day before, and the driver called me 30 minutes before arriving, which was really helpful. The driver was friendly, professional, and very helpful.
Overall, the customer service was amazing, and the whole experience was smooth, efficient, and hassle-free. I wouldn't hesitate to order from Aircon Direct again and would highly recommend them.

Poor quality control
This was the only reputable company I could find who still had evaporative air conditioner units. I rang to ask a few questions and spoke with Miall. He was kind and professional, although when I asked which courier company they use he told me they do their own deliveries. This turned out to be incorrect as they sent my order via DPD. That was fine, they're good in this area - just a little strange that Miall got it wrong.
However, when I set up the machine last night I suddenly found it was leaking everywhere. I had to unplug it quickly.
Today I examined it more closely and found there was a several centimetre crack in the water tank. I can't even ask the company for a replacement as they've run out of them.
The box is intact which means the unit was either damaged during manufacture/packaging or it was a returned item which had been damaged by a previous customer and not checked properly before being sold again.
I have no choice but to patch it up and use it given that we're in a heatwave again, but for a £200 unit I expected it to at least be intact and fit for purpose.
I'm sure they're a well meaning company and the delivery was exemplary, just be aware their quality control may not be of the best.

Poor customer service
Poor customer service: I do understand that there is a problem with supply at the moment, but if you don’t have something available then please contact the customer to arrange an alternative or return funds straight away, don’t just tell them “we won’t be sending it to you until September”. And then when they contact you, don’t get back to them. I see you have a lot of people with an experience like this this week….

Appalling customer service
Appalling customer service - do not trust website. Placed an order in June showing units available to be delivered 8 July. Called on 8 July to be told that only part of the order would be available for delivery on 22 July. They had not reached out to me, they lied about availability and then they made a cancellation over the phone very difficult. Do not trust.

Great AC unit.
The AC unit was delivered on the day we were told that it would be. I would suggest using a different delivery company though. DHL delivered mine. The box was not intact, it wasn't dropped but put down quite hard. The driver was as rude as he usually is. I have complained to DHL. However, the unit is a good size for our bedroom as we don't have the biggest room. Though it was more money that we wanted to spend, it is worth it as the warmer summers seem to be getting hotter. We are renters so this unit has been a great investment. Easy to set up and very easy to use.
