If you want a brand, look some place else but if you want a reliable AC, look no more. My friend got this AC installed a couple of years back. When we heard voltas, we looked down on his choice as we were brand oriented. But the performance over this AC is phenomenal and the maintenance costs are equal to pennis as compared to its performance output. Fun fact: NASA uses Voltas AC in their headquarters. In the end it's not about the brand but on the performance and this AC will surely chill you out;)
