Help me, I'm hot.

[The Old Jaybird]

I need a recommendation for a small, room-sized, free-standing AC unit. Don't need much, but my man-cave is on the "hot" side of the house and the central air unit can't push enough in here to keep it cool. Can't use a window unit. Something from Home Depot would be ideal because there is a HD about a mile from me.

All info and suggestions appreciated.

Do you have a way to vent it to the outside?

Make one of those cooler a/c 's

Never used one of these but briefly thought about getting one for my garage...

I've owned 3 over the years, different brands and price points. They all seemed to work very well. The cheapest one cooled just as well as the expensive one in our office on the sun exposed side of the house

Have you tried a fan? Sometimes just moving the air helps.

OK, the internet is a wonderful thing. The spiffy free standing units are a very poor second to just an old fashioned small window unit. I didn't want to mess with a window unit because of bushes outside, but I will manage. So off to HD tomorrow AM for a small 5000 btu unit, my room is only about 150 sq feet. Got the grandson here to help with the outside work and an outlet handy on the inside.

I have an LG like this one in my home office:

LG Electronics 6,000 BTU (DOE) 115-Volt Portable Air Conditioner LP0621WSR Cools 250 Sq. Ft. with Dehumidifier Function and LCD Remote LP0621WSR

This portable air conditioner is a great choice for versatile cooling! This quiet unit is ideal for cooling medium rooms up to 250 sq. ft. The unit has 2 cooling and fan speeds and a 24 hour timer to create a cooling schedule. The auto-swing air vent helps direct the flow of air where it's...
