I've got one in a box.
It's not functioning but while removing it I found several pinched O
rings that caused it to loose refigerant.
Theres no reason you can't get good service out of it, mine worked very
well until it lost its charge and I removed all of the hose connections
to check for leaks and sure enough I found one pinched O ring at the roof
mount evaporator and another at the front coil.
