GE AHEK10AC Smart Window Air Conditioner review

The AHEK10AC is GE's standard smart window unit rather than one of its Profile models, and it covers rooms up to 450 sq ft with 10,000 BTU of cooling. It shares much of the SmartHQ feature set with the pricier ClearView: app control from anywhere, energy reports, geolocation that adjusts settings when your phone heads home, and voice control through Alexa or Google Assistant. Eco Mode shuts off the fan and compressor once the room is cool enough, and a filter reminder tells you when to clean the filter. GE lists three cooling settings and fan speeds, 4-way adjustable louvers, power interruption restart and a 24-hour on and off timer, plus a remote. The fixed chassis installs in a double hung window with the included EZ Mount kit. The trade-offs: it is not an inverter, GE gives no noise figure, and GE marks the model as no longer being manufactured, with a $408 clearance price.
