    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Small and quiet but powerful. I like the eco features where the unit only kicks on when needed rather than the fan running the whole time.

        Did the job
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My central air died during the hot/humid spell in October 2017. Having old pets with health issues and who can't tolerate heat, I needed something quick. This cooled a decent sized area to keep both four and two legged occupants comfortable. It is pricey, thus only 4 stars.

          Absolute junk. Bought one. Hooked up the vent duct to exhaust tower in ceiling. Plugged in, blew cold air out. Using it in a room approx 20 X 15, just trying to keep the temp down a little bit as it has a machine in there that creates some heat. After running for about 16 hours, did absolutely nothing to change the temp in the room and the air coming from it was simply the air in the room being blown by the fan. Thought maybe the R410 leaked out, so I returned it thinking it was defective... Got another one of the same unit... hooked it up, DID EXACTLY THE SAME THING! Returning that one today for good as I called Frigidaire and the lady I spoke with insisted that they "do not deal with portable AC units @ Frigidaire" and would not transfer me to anyone that might have been able to help.

          Gosh! Junk Junk, I regret any frustration and inconvenience this matter may have brought you. The installation instructions for your portable air conditioner specify window exhaust only. The exhaust hose doesn’t allow the machine to operate correctly if there are any sharp bends (as there may be if you are attaching the exhaust hose to a ceiling exhaust tower). Regretfully, under these installation circumstances, your warranty may be negatively impacted. *Ruth Frigidaire
            Did the job !
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 700 soft condos central AC stopped functioning . The process of replacement was complex since it was a HVAC system requiring various approvals from the condo association and the City . I need to cool my condo for the summer until the new HVAC system was installed. Window AC was not allowed. This unit fit my requirements. I installed it for the bedroom and position a fan a the bedroom door. This allow me to keep my condo cool even during the hottest days. It was very efficient as my condo is totally electric and none of my monthly summer bills exceed $100/ month.

              Does not cool very well.
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I would never have bought this waste of electricity. It does not work as well as I was hoping.

                Working great
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Previous non-Frigidaire air conditioners we've purchased have lasted only about 2-3 years. So far, our Frigidaire AC is working great, and we hope it lasts a long time.

                  I love this thing. Just like central air conditioning it goes into a sleep/off mode once the temperature reaches the set level. When the temperature raises, the system recycles back on. The noise level is much lower then expected. I would absolutely recommend.

                          Works well overall
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this in early July after moving into a third floor space in the heat of summer. I wish it had a little more power as it didn’t quite cool my whole apartment (450 square feet) on really warm days but it still worked pretty well. I appreciate the timer and the filter is easy to clean. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase.

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Happy I stuck with that little voice in my head and followed my dads advice to buy frigidaire. It does the job, quiet and powerful. We bought a generator to run it, works great, we're ready for the next hurricane

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this item recently to replace a heavy window unit that is difficult install and remove. For all its inconvenience my old window unit worked better. This model functions well but does not cool the room as well.

                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased 1 month ago to replace older window AC. I'm glad I choose this model. Cools the room quickly and shuts down when room reaches set temperature. I like the louver feature opens when on, closes when off.

                                      We live in Naples and were out of power after hurricaine Irma x 1 wk. With the generator, this unit kept my family of 5 cool to sleep at night.

                                        Hello, Derek. This model is designed to cool a room up to 550 sq. ft. Please make sure you are operating the appliance in cool mode instead of fan or energy saver mode. Also, please make sure the a/c is vented properly to the outdoors. ~ Brandi Frigidaire

                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this unit at the beginning of the summer. It cooled most of my first floor and is soxe efficient for a 12,000 BTU unit .

                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This unit definitely cooled down my studio apartment. It's really noisy, though and the window installation wasn't very adaptable for my window (it doesn't really fit).
