Pinguino PAC EX100 Silent
The EX100 Silent is De'Longhi's flagship portable, combining an outstanding A++ rating and 3.6 EER with a quiet 49 dB(A) minimum and RealFeel comfort control. Running costs are notably lower than most rivals, though you pay a steep upfront price and it is frequently out of stock.

The IG9919 is the value choice: a true 4-in-1 with cooling, heating, dehumidify and fan modes plus a 24-hour timer, usually under £300. Its lower 840W draw gives the best efficiency here (around 3.1 EER), though the 9,000 BTU output limits it to smaller rooms up to 20m².
