Small but powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We needed a small unit and this fit the bill, but the best part was how quickly this air conditioner cooled things off. Good things DO come in small packages! *Note* We did order online from a well known retailer and a small spot on the back “fins” was dented- a definite drawback to purchasing online.

Great Cooling !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought this a month ago and I am happy that I did. I was at first skeptical that this machine would help with heat but his small air conditioner cooled the room down very fast. I had a little setback with missing knobs on my air conditioner but had that issue fixed. I will buy again from this brand if I should need another machine or something else. Very pleased with my overall experience. Thank you. ♥

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.

Great choice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this in July and it was a good choice for my small extra bedroom when the grandchildren sleep over. Price was very reasonable. Popped right into the small profile window, was very quiet and all in all I am very satisfied.

Basic simple air conditioner

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this yesterday during a heat wave when my old 15 year old Goldstar ac finally died. Did a quick research for size,price, and positive reviews along with a name brand. First the pros; very light, easy to unpack,and install for this 70 year old. Total of 15 minutes to do. Now the nitty gritty. I put this unit in the spare room on the second floor of a cape style home. It was a 95 degrees and humid and anyone who lives in this style home knows, the upstairs gets brutally hot. Using the simple manual controls, which I like, I put it on high cool and fan. I expected after a few minutes to have icy cold air blowing out and figured to cool down the room in a few hours. The air was cool but not biting icy cold like the old unit. I do realize I was fighting an uphill battle because of the heat build up before. Also, I'm sure they use a different Freon in newer ac's than the older models. I don't know how much a difference it makes . By bedtime my upstairs was comfortable with this unit and another Frigidaire unit in the other room across the hallway. We always try to run our ac's early enough before the peak of a hot day or else it's hard for the units to catch up in the battle of cooling down the house. This unit has good fan speed in every mode and the noise level is certainly acceptable. Filter is easy access to clean. I do wish it was less flimsy but all the units I checked out at the store were basically the same. I picked Frigidaire over the other units because it just looked and felt less cheaply made than the others and it certainly has brand name recognition. I would recommend this unit but just understand that any unit will struggle in humid hot over 90's weather. I'm hoping it will cool down faster on less brutal days. I will try to update later in the season.

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.

4 out of 5 stars review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works well for the bedroom we have put it in. It gets cool enough, my only complaint is that it's pretty loud, (reason for 4 stars). Also, it would be nice if the compressor kicked in on at least the #3 setting, instead of past #6. At #6 it really blows out hard making it loud.

Good Performer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought one of these last Summer, and was impressed enough to buy another one for use this Summer. It's lighter weight than the one it replaced, and is just the right size for a bedroom. No frills, but it does the job nicely, and a very reasonable price.

Frigidaire A/C

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought another 5,000 BTU Window Mounted Air Conditioner for guest bedroom. Never had problems with my other two purchases. Easy installation, easy to operate, and easy removal of filters for cleaning.

So far, so good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Though I would actually prefer to rate this window a/c unit after using it for a year, I have to say that the install was easy and it seems to have been an excellent choice for our new she shed. Our shed is 150 square feet and this unit cools it down perfectly. Its relatively quiet and while I was concerned that it might pop the circuit breaker it runs on, but it does not. Time will tell about its durability, but it seems well built and thus far I have no complaints whatsoever.
