Don’t know about their unit, but my one is 48KG, so lugging it isn’t the easiest.
I would’ve though have it setup at the bottom of the house, have it running and only open a window at the top of the house…
Assuming no major air leaks in the house, the cold will displace the heat starting at the bottom, the rising heat then able to escape out of a cracked window at the top of the house,
Otherwise have it at the top of the stairs and hope that the falling cold will displace the heat
You would want it at the top of the house if it’s purely for cooling. Cool air at the top of the house will sink down to the bottom. Rising hot air will then be cooled by the A/C unit. If you put it at the bottom, all that cool air will just sit there and never move upstairs. The open window upstairs will allow hot air out… if it’s cooler outside than inside, otherwise it will allow hot air in. In either case, that won’t promote much mixing of the upstairs and downstairs air, so your A/C won’t improve the temperature upstairs much.

Yeah, if running it isn’t too expensive then using it to boost the old ‘diagonal air exchange’ strategy seems like a good plan
