The window kit was a little tricky to set up. I have a high ceiling, 3rd floor room that can get very muggy when it’s hot outside; I was pleasantly surprised how cool the room gets. Great purchase!!!

The AC is great & chills my bedroom quickly. I had trouble with the window piece. It came with screws which I cannot use in a rental apt. I also had to buy a saw to cut the piece to fit in my window & then duck tape it all.

Fairly quiet for a portable AC. Cools the room quickly. The fan is stationary so it only blows in one direction - up. Overall, I like it. It does the job.

If you have the right type of window, this could be a great air conditioner for you. It is not quiet, but not much different than most hotel air conditioners I've experienced. It appears to cool quite nicely, but I haven't had a very hot day yet, to truly test it. The reason for this review is that the included one-size-fits-all window kit did not work for my window as furnished. I have a sliding slash window. The window kit is designed for sliding slash windows that open on the left by sliding to the right. My window opens on the right by sliding to the left. So when I tried to fit the window piece with the hole into my window, the hole was 18 inches above the bottom of the window and the hose couldn't reach it. I did jury-rig it and got it to work by cutting the window piece in half, so that the hole was near the bottom of the window where it should be. It boggles my mind that the window kit was not designed to work for all sliding slash windows. At least the product description should state that it isn't designed for windows that open on the right by sliding left.

    This was purchased before the weather has become hot so I can't offer a final assessment. However, on receipt of delivery, I set everything up to see if it ran OK. The coupler between the exhaust hose and the window panel assembly does not easily connect - I had to really force it and it still doesn't rotate completely into place, but enough to stay put and work. What's the point of manufacturing connecting items if they don't connect as designed? The a.c. unit itself seems very good. The fan is relatively quiet (more quiet than I expected). So far, I would buy the unit again - but very disappointed about the quality of the connecter for the exhaust coupled to the window panel. Also my window (slider side-to-side) is higher than the window panel insert but I have already incorporated a replacement extension that fits and does not require the side insulation strips. I give the a.c. 5 stars and the window coupler -1 star.

    Effective, but sounded like a small jet engine. I returned it. Wish Home Depot had videos of all their units running (not just dB ratings) so we could gauge real-life sound level before purchasing.

    This unit works very well in our bedroom. Can be loud at times but it does not prevent sleep. The Eco mode on this unit allows it to cycle on and off at the set temp. Easy to install. Overall a good product for the price.

    Received product that had already been returned to store. It was missing a key piece, and had stripped screws stuck into the window vent panel. It was a complete waste of my time, as I had to return the day after I received it. HD should not have sent out an already returned, defective product.

    Good portable AC, issue is the big exhaust extension that is not very decor friendly and that the fiter light is already on when we only had it less than a month.

    Nanni, I am glad to hear you are happy with your portable air conditioner. I agree the exhaust is may not go with all decor. I am passing along your feedback concerning that to the appropriate department. The Air filter light is a reminder to clean the Air Filter (See Care and Cleaning) for more efficient operation. The filter indicator will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. You will find the instructions for cleaning the filters on page 11 in your Owner’s Manual. To reset the alert light after cleaning the filter, press the "Filter" button and the light will go off. *Ruth Frigidaire

    Our bedroom is less than 350 sq ft and it doesnt cool off the room. Window vent not adjustable and fits larger windows. Smaller windows you need to cut down with power tools.

    We bought a new home (older) and the central AC was junk. We couldn't afford the 8k-11k to replace it, so instead I purchased three different Frigidaire units. This particular one is attractive, and does a great job of keeping our master bedroom cool in 100 degree weather in Las Vegas. I'm hoping it will do as well when its 120 outside. The timer function is helpful, and the cost is quite affordable. It's nice to only be able to cool the bedroom at night, and leave the rest of the house to get fresh air. Great unit!

    Bought this for my son whose room gets hot in the summer even though we have air conditioning. He says it works great to cool down the room and then goes off. He likes the remote so he can turn it off at night, if it gets to cold, without getting out of bed. Compared to some I've heard, it's not to loud.

    Before buying this air conditioner I read a lot of the reviews. I think for the price, this portable unit is about perfect and I've used a couple of them over the years. One of the big plusses for this unit is that the power draw is fairly low amperage (sub 9), whereas many pull 15+ and really should be on a dedicated circuit, which most people do not have. This air conditioner will make a small room ice cold, or a medium sized room cold enough if given time. It offers many of the same features other units do, but it's relatively small for a portable unit which is a plus. The really important thing is making sure your window will close properly. Most people screw up their windows by using the double sided foam on them, which is impossible to get off after the summer. The right move is to get your window attachment created correctly and attach foam to the plastic itself so it sits nicely in your window frame and can be removed easily. All in this air conditioner is a great value for the price and works very well assuming you can get the vent port set up correctly. People complaining that it isn't "portable" don't understand how air conditioners work and that condensers need to blow off the hot air they create while making cold air. Proper venting is critical but if you can get that right this one works great and doesn't draw a ton of electricity. A+!

    Overall works well. Somewhat noisier than I expected but keeps bedroom a cool 66 degrees for sleeping. Have not had a hot summer night in Georgia yet. That will be the true test.

    I've only gotten to use this unit a couple of times, but so far, so good. The installation instructions are awful, though. Everything is pictured as a circle or a rectangle, so it's hard to determine which piece is which.

    Hi KD! I know that some sounds on your air conditioner can be a little loud. Your air conditioner may make many sounds, such as high pitched chatter, vibration, ping, swishing, sound of rushing air, gurgle or hissing; which is a part of the normal operations. However, if you are experiencing any unusual sounds, please contact us directly. –Thanks!- Frigidaire
