Has anyone ever tried to use a portable 120V AC unit? DeLonghi came out w/ a new one a little while back and it seems to be getting rave reviews from landlubbers - Amazon has trouble keeping it in stock:

My research on these things show they draw 9.5 to 13 amps and run between 12K and 14K BTUs. Seems adequate. Most double as dehumidifiers and some offer heat pump capabilities too, though I know those are little help lower than about 40 degrees F.
I'd really like to avoid a roof unit and have to run AC on shore power in any event - I'm not using an inverter - so, what the heck? Yeah, I'll have to bolt it down and jerry-rig a vent, maybe a drain, but those seem like simple tasks.
Eh? Worth a look? What say the the grizzled ones?
