Product Snapshot

Overview

The LG LP1022FVSM is a high-end air conditioner that was first introduced to the market in 2022. The AC unit has a 10,000 BTU cooling capacity, which is most appropriate for areas up to 450 sq ft. The unit can be used either as a fan, a cooler, or a dehumidifier, but at its quietest, the unit has a noise output of only 44 dB, which is quieter than many top-ranking air conditioners on the market today.

The LP1022FVSM also has easy roll casters that owners can use to place it anywhere within their room, and it also ships with a window kit for easy installation of its outlet. These features make it a strong competitor to the SPLAC10 – another portable alternative we’ve covered in our Serenelife SLPAC10 review.

Consensus

our Verdict

With a cooling capacity of 10,000 BTU, the LG LP1022FVSM will work great for users who need to cool a room up to 450 sq ft. This unit cools down your room by varying its speed, so it doesn’t use up as much power. The AC unit can also be positioned anywhere since it has easy roll caster wheels for easy movement, and its 67-inch outlet hose (max length) is long enough for most people. It also has four fan-speed cooling options to choose from and a noise output of 44 dB on its quietest setting, which is low enough for most people to sleep through comfortably. The LP1022FVSM is also easy on your electric bills since it uses energy-saving inverter technology, which keeps energy costs low by up to 40%.

The unit can be managed through the user-intuitive LG ThinQ app or its included remote control, and they both don’t take a lot of time to figure out how to use.

ReasonS to Buy

  • Cooling capacity
    • The LG LP1022FVSM air conditioner has a cooling capacity of 10,000 BTU and cools rooms that are up to 450 sq ft in size.

    • The LG LP1022FVSM has a super low noise output of 44 dB, which is quiet enough for most people to sleep through.

    • However, if you’d like an even quieter alternative, check out our Whynter ARC 123WN review.

  • Easy to use
    • The AC unit is also easy to use and can be managed through its LG ThinQ app. It can also pick up voice commands through Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.

Reason to Avoid

    The LG LP1022FVSM is a portable AC unit that can be placed anywhere in a room, while the LG LW6017R is designed to be installed on a window. The LP1022FVSM also has a higher cooling capacity and four fan speed options, making it more expensive compared to the LW6017R, which only has three. The LP1022FVSM is also the quieter pick between the two, but it is more than double the cost of the LW6017R. However, if both of these don’t quite fit your needs, then it may be time to consider checking out the best evaporative cooler.

    The LG LP1022FVSM air conditioner’s cooling capacity doesn’t quite match up to that of the more expensive Whynter ARC-1230WN. The Whynter AC also gets slightly quieter than the LG AC on its lowest setting, and in terms of size, it is also the more compact option. Additionally, the Whynter AC has a higher Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, making it the more cost-effective alternative regarding power efficiency. However, if you’re specific about getting an LG AC unit, then perhaps the options on our roundup of the best LG air conditioners might be worth a look.

    The LG LP1022FVSM has easy roll coasters, allowing owners to position it anywhere around their space. It differs from the Midea U-shaped MAW08V1QWT, which is designed as a window AC unit. However, the LG AC unit has a higher cooling capacity and can serve larger rooms. This makes it the more expensive pick between the two. Both of these utilize inverter technology for lower electricity costs, but if you want a list of ACs that use the least power, check out what we think are the best inverter air conditioners on the market.
