Pros

• Year-round utility: Has both cooling and supplemental heating — good for places with mild cold or cooler nights, so you don’t need separate heater.
• Good for medium rooms: Covers ~330 sq ft, suitable for medium-sized bedrooms, living rooms etc.
• Balanced efficiency: CEER ~ 11.3 is reasonably good for a non-inverter unit with heating.
• Reasonable noise: At high mode ~ 52 dB, and lower modes are quieter — decent for bedrooms or spaces where you want less disturbance.
• Useful features: Timer, auto-restart, filter alarm, energy saver mode, multiple fan speeds, 4-way atmospheric airflow—all help with comfort, power management, and maintenance.

Cons

• Heating capacity limited: The 3,850 BTU heating is supplemental — it can warm small/cool rooms, but not enough for very cold conditions.
• Power draw in heating is significant: ~ 1,260 W means the heating mode will draw much more electricity — so higher running cost when in heating mode.
• Noise still noticeable at higher fan/cooling/heater modes: Although moderate, 52 dB is not silent, so in quiet rooms it can be heard.
• Not ultra-smart: This model does not include WiFi by default (the base LW8023HR). Smart/WiFi capability may be present in some variants (e.g. “SM” version), so check if you need remote/app control.
• No inverter compressor: Fixed speed implies less efficient especially when usage is continuous or when room demand is partial—efficiency drops.
• Cooling capacity vs very hot climates: In climates with extreme heat or high humidity, it may require running at high setting often, increasing power draw & noise.

Conclusion

The LG LW8023HR is a good middle ground: provides both cooling & heating in one unit, decent capacity for medium rooms, with fairly good features.
