I had very bad experience with samsung 1 ton inverter ac.
It stops working thrice per year on an average.

I am planning to buy a new one this summer.

Please suggest me a brand, model, technology, tonnage etc.
Thanks in advance, for your help.

If there is roof above your floor and your house faces the sun when afternoon go for 1.5-2 ton Ac

Daikin , Hitachi , Mitsubishi are some of the reputed bands

If you will use ac for less than 6 hours go for non inverter other wise inverter ac

In your opinion, do split or window air conditioners have any advantage in terms of long lasting?

Using split O general for last 7 years
Was using O general window ac 15 years before we bought split.

No repairs in last 7 years, got regular servicing every 2-3 years ( no repais, routine cleaning and maintenance)

Also we got 5 star 1.5 ton so the power usage is also very less compared to my neighbours even during peak summer.

Did you troubleshoot the problem you are facing for your samsung 1 ton ac?

Yes, I had extended the warranty for 3 more years (total 4 years).
The issues have been attended and fixed by the authorized service persons.

But the problems continued on 5th and 6th years as well.
I am fed up with the ac now.

Many many issues occurred including multiple gas leaks, multiple PCB failures, power supply unit failure, coil corrosion etc. etc. It keeps on happening.
I spent too much and tired now.

I have very bad experiences with all my samsung products.
I will never buy any samsung consumer products again.
They are either unreliable or the service is very bad (they break something while fixing one).

Inverter technology(irrespective of how long you use per day/year) from a reputed brand for fuss free operation/maintenance. Do remember to take additional warranty cover, and hope that you will never use the warranty.

Yep 1 ton is enough. Check the required tonnage on blue Star orLG website. We are using hitachi windows 1.2 ton in our 14×12 room and never had any problem and two sides are exposed to Sun light as well. But then again we are not fat people, so 25 degrees are fairly cold for us. While 1 ton will certainly do the job for you, I’ll still suggest you to get a 1.2 ton.

As for brands obviously the top level brands are mentioned above- Daikin, Mitsubishi, O’General, Hitachi. Stick with them.
