They serve as tables, with a teak top. Goldstar products were fantastic. The Chinese were breaking-into the world market and yes Almot I agree today's LG brand is not match for the original.
The nice part is I can plug into a Mexican 15-amp outlet and SAFELY run any one of the three. My nightstand is a Goldstar. Since it is on the floor, it fills the losed door bedroom with dehumidified chilled air with zero draft. It will fill the room to around 36" from the floor then it'll will cycle off. As much as the ceiling complains about not getting chilled air, I lay in bed and ignore the moaning.
I bet I use one-tenth (or less) the kWh of a full-on roof air unit and down here if high usage slams the account and puts the rate into DAC, even that 5,000 BTU unit will consume twenty-five US cents per hour. On the warmest nights the duty cycle is around 40-50% to allow a flat 70F room temperature.
