Frigidaire 6,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner with Remote Control, Cools Up to 250 Sq. Ft., Quiet Operation, Eco Mode, 3 Fan Speeds, Auto Restart, White

Does the job. No noisier than any other air conditioner that sits in your living room 5 ft from your head. Is it super quiet no. Is it super loud no . Is it loud yes it reminds me of my old dishwasher. I'm sensitive to high sounds high pitch sounds. As long as it doesn't have any of those it doesn't bother me. The reason I'm sticking with Frigidaire is I had a six year old 15,000 BTU Frigidaire window AC unit never did any maintenance on it except clean the little filter screen to the front. Left it in the window all year long for the past 6 years. I was ignorant and I didn't know you were supposed to do anything to it. It kept working, I kept using it. Had a crappy tenant with multiple pets stay in there for about 8 months didn't even clean the filter screen and yet it was still hanging in there still reaching 60° in a matter of minutes for that particular room it was in. Had to take it apart wash all the mold out that he caused and 6 years worth of vegetative matter that got in through the slots, pine needles that kind of thing. The drain hole was clogged up. It came as a sleeve unit so there was no way to just take the bottom thing off and wash that off and it weighed over a hundred pounds, that's the bad side of a sleeve so it survived despite that extreme amount of neglect on my part. It did not survive us taking the back off cleaning it out and doing everything else to it. Waited 36 hours turned it back on. Worked immediately reached cold immediately but now the fan has this grating noise to it that I can't live with so I'm giving it to the handyman he can fix it and keep it. I got one of the 12000 BTU and put it in the same space that the other 15,000 was in. I just ordered a 12000 BTU because it's more appropriate sized for this small cottage. It sits in full sun all day long Non-Stop no trees relative to underground plumbing and wiring. Originally a concrete foundation shed that was converted from a 24 x14 to a cottage complete with open cell foam insulation drywalling , real bathroom in a separate room . SeparateCloset . Separate storage area main area has stackable washing machine dryer that vents outside properly, 18 cubic foot refrigerator, an air fryer ,coffee pot, electric tea kettle , two giant overhead ceiling fans, electric frying pan and microwave....All exhaling heat and humidity into the same space thats under 500 sqft. Would I have done the space differently knowing now what I didn't know then , absolutely. Open plan would have been hugely better and much more energy efficient and one air conditioning unit would have done it. A separate space for the washing machine and dryer where the storage room is. When all these things are in the same area the humidity climbs back fast so this AC unit run in dry mode and eco absolutely works to maintain your temperature and can rapidly lower the humidity and does a great job of it. And if it would just cut itself off right there after the compressor stops I'd be sitting in high cotton. Unfortunately all the window air conditioners once they reach the set temperature and the compressor cycles off THE FAN continues to blow for the next 2-3 minutes ,sitting right next to a humidity reader. I've got like five of them in the room spaced out in different areas to make sure they're averaging about the same throughout the room and they do you're better off to turn the air conditioner off immediately and not let it run in eco mode if you're there. Since I never used to have a reader for humidity it's probably ignorance is bliss kind of thing, but it does go back up by about four points in humidity immediately on all of them when the compressor kicks off and it continues to run on eco for those few minutes while it blows the fan only. I listed all those extreme conditions so you can see it could do the job, it's doing the job with all this stuff in one room it can certainly cool your living room or bedroom down. I have another one of the exact same one that I purchased last month it's in the kitchen window I'll run the one in the bedroom just at night time and then the one in the kitchen during the daytime I do not need both of them at the same time and they act as a backup for each other if anything ever happens. Power consumptions not horrible in eco mode, but we're far from summer so only time will tell.

The Frigidaire 5,000 BTU Window-Mounted AC looks very well-made and durable. The design is sleek and compact, perfect for small rooms or apartments. It seems easy to install and operate, with user-friendly controls. From what I can see, this AC provides efficient cooling and reliable performance. The materials appear sturdy and of good quality, promising long-lasting use. Overall, it looks like a great choice for anyone looking for a dependable and effective window air conditioner.

I had a central unit scare in the summer peak (luckily just a blown fuse that I was able to locate in the air handler), and pulled the trigger on two of these units, a 10K BTU and a 5K BTU. I was extremely pleased with the 10K unit. It can get a little loud when it calls for max cool because it blows some serious air. The 5K unit, I was not pleased so much. To make a long story short, it wouldn't adequately cool my bedroom even on max cool. It probably would have, but it would short cycle (turn on, then off rapidly). Often times the short cycle was so quick it would strain to restart the compressor and sometimes give up starting it and kick back to fan. I pulled the front cover and and found the thermostat sensor wire in contact with the evaporator coil. I carefully pulled the wire off the coil, and that cured all the issues. That wire behind the filer should be in front of, but not touching the coil. If it is in contact with the coil it will make the unit think the room is colder than it really is when the compressor is on calling for it to turn it off. The wire will then quickly reach room temperature causing it to turn the compressor back on, and repeat. It will never cool the room to the thermostat's actual setting. So out of the box I was really disappointed, but once this minor factory issue was resolved it turned out to be a pretty decent little unit. It no longer short cycles, and is able to adequately cool my bedroom without the need to set it to max cool. The gurgling noise it makes as the compressor kicks in is a little annoying, but at this price point I don't expect whisper quiet operation. The 10K unit I have doesn't make the gurgling sound that I can tell, but it moves so much more air it may just not be noticeable. Overall, the for price point I am satisfied with my purchase.

During this years heat wave, my wife and I bought this to keep our second story bedroom cool. The room that its cooling is about what the manufacturer rates it for, about 150-200 sq ft. This ac unit keeps it cold, easily! Not cool, cold. Its built solid, but not heavy, so moving it and set up is a super easy task. Its not oppressively loud, its not quiet by any means but we sleep through it just fine. Last week, we had a hot humid day with a heat index of 104 degrees, and using an indoor thermometer, this unit set on low kept the bedroom at 64 degrees no problem. On high, I have no doubt we would have been sub-60 degrees easily. Great value, couldn't be happier with this little ac unit!

I live in the upstairs of a house with no ac. Had to have my boyfriend bring over a special extension cord to make it okay to use at my window, but this thing will run like crazy and keep it really cool. Had the guys install and uninstall it every summer and winter so I can’t comment on how easy it is to do that, but it works great and keeps me cool in sweltering heat

Just simply a wonderful little air conditioner. It blows cold and is very quiet. The controls are the most simplistic which is just great. It's like a 1980 Chevy Chevette. Simple, reliable, and does the job. Highest rating.

I've owned this unit for less than a year, but it worked great for my single-room studio during the summer. It seems like it moves a lot of liquid around internally. We installed the unit in such a way that it was slightly tilted towards the outdoors which allowed any excess water to escape outside rather than inside. It uses a considerable amount of power, however in my case I found it highly effective to let the A/C run for about 20 mins and then simply switch it off. It felt like my room would stay cool for hours after letting it run for just a short amount of time.

The AC was alright to install. I haven’t had the chance to use it during a heat wave yet, but the one time I did use it- my room was nice and cool.

Perfect for cooling my 20 sq meter bedroom. I never have to crank the cooling to high cooling. Low cooling can maintain 24 C when outside is 30 C. The only downside is the noise. I cant sleep with it on at night. Can't complain too much cause price is good and installation is dead simple.

Works on full blast but thatd it. Will leak doesn't drain properly and the vents on the top allow water in when it rains
