not very happy

i brought 2 of these units for our bedrooms just before hot weather set in,they are very noisy.my old a.c. units were much better then these.these units are very light in weight and they cool down the room pretty quick.maybe a better motor might help.

Gets the job done

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought a month ago and has kept me cool during the summer months. Does well cooling a single small room, and when used in conjunction with multiple others is able to maintain the temperature of a larger apartment

Performs as expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this unit to beat the summer heat and have been using it daily since. It is compact and a bit heavy but once installed, can be left alone until you want to move the unit elsewhere. There are 7 temperature settings and High/Low and Fan/Cool cycles. On a really hot day, I'll have the High Cool setting cranked up, but if it's a cooler evening, I'll just turn on the Low Fan. In brief, there are enough settings on this unit to get the combo you are looking for. I also registered the product with Frigidaire for the 1-year warranty.

Decent Window Unit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about 2 weeks ago. My brother installed it. He has to make some modifications but overall said it wasn't a bad unit. I must say I thought it would be more powerful. Maybe I should be gotten the 6000. The 5000 is supposed to more than cover the room that it is in according to square footage but I think they overstate it's capability.

small and mighty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm very satisfied with this unit. It was extremely easy to install, it's small, lightweight and very efficient. I live in a pretty busy area of the city so the sound it makes is nice at muffling the outdoor noise without it making any obnoxious sounds. Also, a lot of air conditioners turn off and on throughout the night which has always bothered me and wakes me up. This one is consistent which I appreciate.

Cccccold!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing little AC! May I say it makes my small 150 sf office extremely comfortable. The high setting is actually too cold for me. It was 92 here in New York yesterday and I was cool as can be! Soooo worth the price!

Decent for Its Price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my small bedroom (unsure of the exact dimensions, but I am sure it is within the specifications for this model). It has served me well so far this summer. In general, I find myself having to turn it to High Cool to actually cool things down. Not too surprising for a lower end model like this. Definitely do not purchase this if you have a larger room to cool.

Buy something different!!

NOTHING AGAINST WAL*MART! Poor quality, A/C has already died. If you need a window unit for AC, look at other products/brands. We are very disappointed, as Fridgidaire is normally a solid brand, and this could just be a bad one, as that happens as well. It has worked great since install in April, also understanding this is Florida, and we have heat index of 118 plus humidity. HOWEVER, we have had window units last 6 years, and we are really really displeased with this. I would like to see my protection plan re-instated and a solution to a dead AC unit please. I am most upset about the following: I would like to know why the protection plan was refunded without my knowledge? I did not request the protection plan to be cancelled. This is just not acceptable business practices.

Great for bedroom

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live in Oklahoma where the average temp feels like 110+ degrees in the summer... and super humid! I needed a new window unit ac for my bedroom because my old one went out. I've had this one a few weeks now and it works perfectly. Keeps it nice and cold. I don't think it's too noisy, but I also keep a box fan constantly going.

Why would you do that?

The good and the bad. It's good being small and fits my small window. Sounds great and most important keeps my small bedroom cold. The really bad is the placement of the filter. Why would you do that. It's made small to fit in a small window so a side filter (which I've never seen on a window ac) is ridiculous! I can't get the filter out without moving the ac out of the window.
