Works well, no frills, affordable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This model was recommended by New York Magazine as "best (low priced) window air conditioner" in 2021. It can turn a 150 square foot bedroom into a refrigerator at maximum settings. Old school design, with no frills, so hopefully it will last for a while like older appliances tended to do.

Love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my two bedroom home and was a little skeptical because of the size but it does an excellent job cooling down the entire apartment. I would definitely recommend. Packs a nice punch for the small size.

Good for Small Room

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like most window a/c 's it's a little noisy when compressor kicks on. Nice color, easy to install. Works well in our 200 s.f. bedroom with southern exposure and mid-day sun. We use it just for sleeping. Cools room pretty quickly.

Expandable side louvers do not fit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had great expectations after a wonderful Consumer Reports Review, however... The expandable side louvers absolutely did not fit. When extended to seal against the edges of the window, there were gaps that measured large enough for most any bug, bee, spider, or creature to simply enter the house, not to mention the hot air from outside. After custom fitting cardboard, duct tape and silicone caulk to seal the gaps, I turned it on in my bedroom and found it was much too noisy to sleep in the same room with. I returned it regretfully.

Oh no, Regretfully! I hate to hear that this A/C did not work out for you. The air conditioner is designed to install in standard double hung windows with opening widths of 23 to 36 inches. If you need an air conditioner that can accommodate a larger window, please reach out to us directly, and we will be happy to see what we can find for you! ~ Brandi

Replacement works great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered this product a couple months ago. The original had a faulty compressor that wouldn't start. I contacted customer service to see about getting a replacement, they were extremely nice and helpful. I received the replacement quickly and it works wonderfully. Very happy with this purchase and their customer service.

Great little AC unit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this at the beginning of the summer and am very glad I did! Used in the bedroom and it has worked great to keep the room cool and comfortable all throughout the hot weather. Highly recommend!

More Than Expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start off by saying what I read some people say before I purchased it, and now agree with - it definitely cools more than it says. I keep it on low cool and don't even max out how cold it can go and it keeps my entire apartment, which is more sq footage than it states it can handle. The price, along with what I stated above, and overall ease to put together and install make it a no regrets at all purchase. The only thing and I can't possibly consider this a negative - when it gets really going from time to time it'll vibrate the front and if I simply press my finger on it barely it'll stop it completely. Wish I could adjust it somehow to make that permanent, but it isn't something I'm noticing constantly just when I walk by it sometimes. I'm happy so this gets 5 stars from me.

does what I bought it for!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a third floor that is my office/game room and with the computers and screens on the room would easily get to 80F but this is able to compete with those heat generators. It's a bit loud but I use head phones whole gaming and my mic doesn't pick it up so it's not a big deal

Very pleased

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this during quite a heat wave in July. I have a small living room I wanted to sit in and be comfortable. This is very good for that job. It even projected some cooler air into the other rooms, not a lot but more than expect.

Great air conditioner!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm so satisfied with my Frigidaire air conditioner! I live in an apt and needed one for the bedroom. I've always bought an 8000BTU unit but got this 5000BTU unit and it outperforms anything I've ever had. Not only is it compact, barely noticeable in the window, but it is QUIET! It has levers to direct the air flow and they really work. With other units, no matter which way I turned the levers or adjusted the coolness, I'd always be too cold or not cool enough. With my Frigidaire, I actually get a great night's sleep!
