Great unit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the simplicity of this unit. I needed it for a small room, and the one I had before just had too many buttons. The simple two dial control makes it easy for me to operate it. The only downside is, I wish it had a thermostat on it just to tell me the temperature of the room.

Saved my summer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using this window unit in June and it has not let me down. I was able to easily install it myself in about 20 minutes. I use it in my home office, and has made me able to be so much more productive this summer. We had a really long extreme heat wave at the end of June, and my house only has an evaporative cooler. With temperatures 110 plus for over 15 days, I would have been a goner. This little unit saved my summer!

Amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about two months ago and love it! My room gets full sun most of the day and we've been having temps in the upper 80s and 90s most of the time. This unit does a great job keeping the room cool, and sometimes cold, whenever I need it. So glad I bought it!

Works like a charm... a quiet charm

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this Frige AC unit because we were so impressed by the Frigidaire dehumidifier we bought last year. The unit cools our approx 170 sq ft bedroom perfectly... and as a bonus, it added little to our electric bill when we had it going for about two weeks during a recent heatwave. Very pleased with our purchase.

Cool

Does an excellent job of cooling, and the easing into the compressor modes is a good plus! The louver works well in its new design of angled disks; that change air flow directions. I would prefer it split in the middle though; so you could direct the air flow of left & right sides individualy. Otherwise am very happy with the purchase so far.

Best ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This air conditioner is whisper quite. It cools my two bedrooms perfectly with no need to run the "big" swamp cooler to cool the entire house..saves energy and that means saving money. I totally recommend

Basic ac unit, gets the job done very well love it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought two units in August, our house is 700square feet. if I turn both units on they get the temperature down from 80 to 73 in 3 hours. they worked very well for me I love them. The installation is veru straight forward. Just make sure to tilt the unit tothe outside a little so it keeps the water out. I was worried about the absence of drainage when I read the reviews. But when I actually installed them it never got any water inside the house. So I am pretty satisfied with it.

Easy install but .....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Haven't really used much but satisfied so far. Easy install, but one issue. Happy with a/c but the fan runs continuously. Fan does not shut off when unit shuts down after reaching set temperature. I called the help line and they said it does continue to run all the time. If I had known this first I would have looked further for one that fan shuts down when unit does.

Hi, George in FL! Thank you for your feedback! Yes, when the air conditioner is active the fan will continue to run after the cooling system has turned off in order to cycle and test the air temperature. We do carry other models with an Eco Mode that will turn both the fan and cooling system off as needed, though this feature is not currently available for this model. We hope you continue to enjoy your new air conditioner! Best, Ashton

4 out of 5 stars review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm using this unit in a small 15x6 room. I'm using the low setting with the thermostat on the coldest temperature (#7) and my room is very cold. However, in the evening it gets too cold so I lower the thermostat one setting (#6) and for some reason it just can't keep up. The temperature is warmer than you would expect if you just lowered it by 1 setting. So, it's either freezing or it's not cool enough to be comfortable. But all in all, it's a great little AC unit which is also very quiet.

ScottRich, thank you for your review! We're happy that you are enjoying your air conditioner and it's quiet operation. We are concerned about the temperature issue you brought to our attention and would like to provide some tips that may prove helpful. Whenever there is an issue with regulating the temperature of your appliance, it is recommended to ensure that your air conditioner is the proper size for the dimensions of the room it is installed in. We also recommend ensuring that the room the appliance is installed in has proper insulation, because without it, the air conditioner will struggle to maintain the desired temperature. if you have further questions, don't hesitate to connect with us via Live Chat or by phone at 1-800-374-4432 Monday-Friday 8:30 am-8 pm EST. Thanks for choosing Frigidaire. - Damon

Great features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far I've been very satisfied with both air conditioners, which I bought earlier this summer. They've been doing a great job of cooling down the air in both room of my apartment. It was especially helpful during the recent heat wave in NYC. Thank you!
