Who this model may suit—and the main trade-off
The compressor remains in the room. Compare the published 65 dB sound evidence, window fit and hose route before treating the BTU rating as a complete answer.
Regular quieter cooling or several rooms matter more than portability; compare a professionally designed split system before buying multiple portable units.

Directly comparable: The same defined field is present in the verified product record.How we compare this model
Portable-v1.0 compares verified specifications against fixed portable-air-conditioner category benchmarks. The internal comparison covers output per rated watt (35), maximum noise (25), weight (15), warranty (10) and verified features (15).
Capacity itself earns no points because the right BTU depends on your room. This is not an efficiency label, product review or laboratory test, and it does not include price or affiliate value.

Features and practical meaning
12,000 BTU/h cooling
Published cooling capacity. Use the room-fit result rather than capacity alone, especially for sunny, open-plan or poorly insulated rooms.
65 dB published sound
Compare the stated measurement with other models on the same basis. A portable compressor remains inside the room.
1,346 W rated input
This verified input is the starting point for the running-cost calculator. Real consumption can vary as the compressor cycles.
Outdoor exhaust required
Confirm hose dimensions in the current instructions. Hot air must be vented outside without extending or sharply bending the hose beyond manufacturer limits.
Window kit listed as included
Check that the supplied parts match your UK window opening before ordering.
30 kg unit weight
Check stairs, thresholds, storage space and the route between rooms. Castors do not remove the need to move the unit safely.
App control listed
The reviewed manufacturer information lists app support; confirm current platform compatibility before purchase.
Dehumidifier mode listed
This mode can remove moisture, but published litres-per-day figures and drainage arrangements should be checked before choosing it for dedicated damp control.

Portable-unit setup matters
Vent hot air outside, keep the exhaust hose within the manufacturer’s permitted arrangement and seal gaps around the window kit. Poor venting can return warm outside air to the room and reduce useful cooling.

Frequently asked questions
What room size is the Princess 01.353200.02.001 suitable for?
The published recommendation represented in the CoolCompare catalogue is Up to 100 m³. Actual cooling demand also depends on ceiling height, insulation, glazing, sun exposure and internal heat, so use the BTU calculator before choosing.
How noisy is the Princess 01.353200.02.001?
The reviewed source publishes a single 65 dB sound value. It is not presented as an operating range; measurement type, room acoustics, fan mode and distance all affect comparisons.
How much electricity does this portable air conditioner use?
Its verified rated input is 1346 W. Rated input is not a promise of constant consumption because compressors can cycle. Use your electricity tariff and expected hours in the running-cost calculator for a transparent maximum-input scenario.
Does a portable air conditioner need to be vented outside?
Yes. A compressor-based portable air conditioner must discharge hot air outside through its exhaust hose. Keep the hose as short and straight as the manufacturer allows and seal the window opening; never extend or alter it contrary to the manual.
