Honeywell MN10CESBB – humidity won’t last a single round!

Our team found that the Honeywell MN10CESBB portable air conditioner was surprisingly powerful for its approximately $400 price point. In most respects, it punches well above its weight. And with the exception of some minor criticisms, our verdict on the machine is positive. Read on below to see how the unit fared in our criteria of performance, efficiency & certification, convenience, design and customer support.

Cooling Performance

With a formidable 10,000 BTU and a suggested area of 350 square feet, the Honeywell MN10CESBB is the epitome of a good portable AC. It is not the most powerful, but it is powerful enough for medium spaces, and, best of all, for a fair price.

Efficiency & Certifications

This unit is ADA-compliant, and UL-listed, so as far safety concerns go, the Honeywell MN10CESBB allays all of them. Its 24-hour timer enhances the efficiency of the unit.

In addition, the MN10CESBB has a Continuous Drain System while in dehumidifier mode, and which is used to continuously drain water that is collected from the air.

However, the MN10CESBB stumbles somewhat in its EER rating, which is 9.5, just below the 9.7 average rating for portable air conditioners.

Convenience

As far as convenience is concerned, this unit ticks the boxes. With a decibel rating of 50-53, you won’t be disturbed by the operational noise from this product. It is also designed for portability, with its smooth caster wheels aiding transportation from one room to another in your house or office.

The unit comes with a window venting kit, complete with adjustable bracket, which is very easy to instal, and operation of the unit could not be easier, especially with its user-friendly full function remote control.

With three settings, the unit’s fan function can cope with varying degrees of heat. Reaching airflow speeds of 174 cubic feet per minute, while still below average, definitely makes a positive impact after just half an hour of operation.

The MN10CESBB is particularly effective at combatting humidity, removing 68 pints of water from the air per day on cooling mode, and even more on the dehumidifier setting.

Unfortunately, the Honeywell MN10CESBB lacks an automatic restart setting, and a sleep mode, functions that are found on many other units in this category.

Design

Aesthetically speaking, the design of the Honeywell MN10CESBB is sleekly attractive. Its chic matte black minimalist design ensures that the unit will blend into the background of any modern home. Given the weight of the appliance, the manufacturers were wise to place this unit on caster wheels.

The only issues we had with the design were the three=foot cord, and the lack of a handle. However, these minor details did not entirely compromise our positive view of the product’s design.

Help & Support

Honeywell maintains a superb customer service section on its website, with its details for contacting the firm via email or phone. The site also has numerous resources to help customers deal with a multiplicity of issues, including
returning and shipping of products.

Honeywell maintains one of the best customer service infrastructures that we have come across, while the Honeywell MN10CESBB itself is covered by a five-year limited warranty.

Honeywell MN10CESBB Review – Summary

The Honeywell MN10CESBB is a major standard-bearer for the Honeywell company’s dedication to quality. This unit is the perfect ‘middle-man’ of the portable AC sector. It is neither a hulking powerhouse, nor a small unit, but rather right in the middle, making it best suited to mid-sized living and working spaces.
