I am about to pull the trigger on an Atwood Heat Pump 15,0000 BTU Roof Air Conditioner?

Anybody have one of these units? Care to give feedback?

Better than a Coleman or another brand?

Thanks for the help...

In my opinion it is the best AC available.
I have it mounted upfront and it cools the entire coach, and it's relatively quiet. The heat pump is also a good idea down to about 48*F.
It completely out performs my Coleman Mach 8 that I have mounted in the rear. No comparison....
Hope this helps, Scott.

I have the 15K unit mounted in the front opening.
It keeps the GMC cool, even in high 90's temps.
My only issue is the air flow when sleeping in the back.
My side freezes while my head and feet are too warm.
Keep in mind, I have done nothing to improve the insulation.
I will probably get the smaller unit for the rear this year, just to keep everything balanced when sleeping.
