I bought the Panasonic inverter 2.5hp. Sobrang happy ako dito.
Bought it last November at AVANT Trinoma for P50k.
Used to have an older Kolin model, wasn't very happy with it. Not as cool during summer, thermostat switching very obvious.
Replaced with Panasonic now very satisfied.
To be fair my older AC wasn't yet the inverter type and the new one is.
Has anyone tried Mitsubishi (Mit-Air)? They have displays at Western App stores. I lost the brochure already but I remember it's priced lower than most major brands i.e. Panasonic.
