This product really seems like it'll be a scam. That or they somehow overcame physics limitations that have daunted every other AC manufacturer.

Thank you to Rick, who posted a comment of caution. I was greatly tempted as it would be possible for me to install myself in my elderly mother's house and also presume to provide a useful heat supplement. I did research and foundd nothing anything like this. I suppose everything has to be thought of sometime, but it does seem like surely someone would have done this if it could work.

So it's a tiny window air unit with heat pump that's really overpriced and chooses to stick *IN* to the house versus out?

What is the advantage of this thing?

Guys this is a total scam by the looks of the videos. There's an assembly video where the guy literally puts a pc 120mm fan inside.. 9000BTU my a**, there's no compressor anywhere.

Whoever this is has been trying to sell this product for the past ten years under different brand names. Look up Noria. Noria Home. Aka Kapsul. All kickstarters. They show slick videos of it "in action." They keep saying it'll be on the market by whenever. Last time it was 2019. Never has this product ever made it to market. I highly doubt that this product is real. Buyer beware.

I'm a refrigeration and air conditioning engineer of 25 years. This is a total scam and you shouldn't be promoting it.

People !! I Go and see how now on forums of Icyflow, Breezenova and Chillfeed on Kickstarter people are crying for lost money. ComfyAir is the same. Dont be suckers !!
1. no company , no contact info, noname engineers
2. no certification for eu and usa , it takes about 12 months to get so no shipments possible
3. impossible device to small,  impossible input output powers , shady tchnical schematics
3. price 51 % of " original price " not counting in kickstarter profit . not possible 9000 btu for 200 $ ??
4.  shady marketing strategis  free device for positive comments cash back referal program those are feature of scams . Many more info on comfyair commets wall.
