Great unit for the price

Before buying this unit, I read almost all the reviews, especially the negative ones. Most of the complaints were about the noise, lack of options and ineffectiveness at cooling. My experience has been the opposite of all the negative reviews. The sound is about the same as having a big box fan in your window. The manual controls are simple and easy to operate. And, on the hottest day of the summer (92F with a heat index of 115F), this unit was a life-saver. It doesn't have any bells and whistles. Heck, it might even break down after this summer. But, for the price, it is easily replaceable. As with any budget-priced appliance, just don't use it all the time or leave it running 24 hours straight, and it should last just fine.

Okay for Window Unit

This air conditioner fits my 36" wide window with just enough space with the window opening. Its very easy tk operate without having to use a remote and all those bells and whistles. The only thing I wished is that this unit blew out colder air, but okay for cooling a bedroom.

Cooling fins not protected by grill or in shipping

Seems to work fine, however construction of the unit is deficient. The thin cooling fins are not protected by a grill and the unit is shipped without adequate protection for these delicate cooling fins. A relatively inexpensive grill to protect these fins would prevent the damage I found on my unit. A sturdier shipping box that protected the fins would also be advisable.

Great for a bedroom

This is my second time purchasing this particular air conditioner and I'm happy with the results so far. I have it in the bedroom and it's sufficient for that, sometimes I put a fan on top of the dresser to push the air further out to the front room. Easy to install.

Was great when it worked. Only lasted 4 months.

This unit was perfect for the space I needed to cool. I never had to turn it above low cool to make my room comfortable. Unfortunately the air conditioner stopped working 4 months after I purchased it. I am giving one star because the unit should last longer.

The online description says it comes with a remote which it did not. That was 1 of the features we really needed for the window it is in. Would not recommend based on that fact and the fact its loud. It works well and was less expensive than others but would have paid more if we had those features.

Amazing

Waited 3 months to leave a review and I'm so impressed. I feel like for the price it is so worth it. It freezes my room even on the low cool. Absolutely love this. I just wish there was a different way to move the wings around, but thats fine i guess.

Air conditioner

Great air conditioner for smaller room. It works great and is very quiet and a great value for the price. I would highly reccomend. I looked around at several other places and they wanted a lot more money for the same BTU and a high delivery charge. Walmart came through once again!

Superior and Small

Perfect fit for small window and so COLD in my room that I can only use it on LOW setting at 5 on temperature dial (even in 95 degrees outdoors). I could cool the hallway and an additional bedroom if needed, but we put a curtain up in hall for that, and must run on HIGH for a hour, to cool the additional bedroom.

Frigidaire Air Conditioner

I like this air conditioner. It cools the room real fast and is a godsend. Frigdaire is a great brand as always. My parents had their refrigerator, which back in the 60s and 70s, ran forever. I know things have changed since then, but I have faith that this air conditioner will last as well.
