 "Very Happy With This Unit" 2009-05-25
By J. Wood (Athens, OH USA)
I have had this unit for 1 year now am very happy with it. I was glad to find that someone made a casement unit with a high EER. Amazon shipping was very fast, faster than estimated. Others have written about poor quality and I can't say that for certain. My unit did arrive with a slight bulge in the front metal housing, and a small crack in the plastic front at the upper right. Actually in inspecting the packaging it looked to me like it had at sometime (in handling) been dropped. I guess I might have complained, except it was hot and I really wanted to get this unit installed,



The instruction are very poor...but that seems to be the pattern with all new products. The price last year was $350 with shipping, so the price has gone up about 10%. Based on other reviews on Amazon I did purchase the extended warranty which cost me $32, but I have not needed to use it.



I recommend this unit if you have slider or casement windows. The high EER is a plus, I like the remote, the unit cools well, and it is not too noisy.

 "Failure after two repairs." 2009-05-17
By David A. Gray (GRESHAM, OR USA)
We had a compressor failure after the first mild NW winter here in Portland Oregon. I just turned it on again today and we have another failure in the compressor bearings. It's unfixable, unless you want to replae the compressor again, and now out of warranty. I would not reccomend this air conditiner to anyone.



There is a quality problem.

 "Good AC Unit" 2008-08-04
By R. Genovese (BRISTOL, CT United States)
I've had this AC for alomost a month and I really can't say a bad thing about it. I love the Energy Star mode which I leave on during the day when we are not home, its not running all day long but its cool when you get home after work, so we should be saving on electricity. It cools pretty much the whole other side of my apartment. We could not use the bracket that came with it, our window sil would not allow us to screw it in. But the side panels that came with it which we screwed right into the AC unit itself seems to hold it up pretty well, very secure. It's quiet too, not too loud at all, perfect for sleeping. When you have to clean the filter, it tells you to check the filter so there is no guessing there. All in all, it is a good AC unit. Happy to have purchased it, good price too I think for a vertical AC unit.

Unit had poor instaltion instruction. Also unit is too noisy for sleeping even on low fan. Compresser makes loud bang when it stops.

 "Finally, A Vertical AC . . ." 2009-07-04
By the Wyvern Shalar (CA, USA)
You'd be surprised how difficult it can be to find an AC that will fit in a window with a 16 inch opening. Thanks to Amazon, I finally found one and it works GREAT!! Pretty easy to install if you don't let yourself get intimidated by the 50 step instruction book. My only but is the flimsy white plastic bit that they give you to fill up the rest of the window space. While it has a nice frame to slide into, I miss looking out that quarter of my window. I think I'll get some plexiglass to replace it. Regardless, it's a great AC that runs a lot quieter than others.

 "Busted plug in" 2009-06-22
By Dean W. Boe
When I received this item it had a busted plug in. It is a circut breaker plug in. It was cracked and I don't think it was from the shipping. I cut it off and put on a different plug and it works but it is not the plug in that is suposed to be on it. I wrote Amazon a email about it but did not receive an answer. I would probaly not buy another item like it from Amazon. Dean Boe dboe@rtconnect.net

 "Arrived Damaged" 2009-06-08
By M. Vayner (Los Angeles)
The A/C unit arrived damaged. The container was not properly padded at all, so it comes like this from the factory. The metal was bent. We had UPS pick it up and ship it back to Amazon.com. About 10 days later, Amazon refunded the money. I never got to see how the unit works. If they just put a little more care into packaging, I would have a brand new unit and Amazon would have their moeny!

 "great a/c unit for a casement window" 2009-06-06
By vinnie (Staten Island, NY)
If you have a casement window, the kind that opens out, this is the unit to buy, its quiet, and pretty easy to install, it comes with the bracket and framework to cover the rest of the open window, i used plexi-glass instead of the white cardboard but either way will work out. i recommend this unit for a casement window

 "Great AC for apartments with slider windows! =^.^=" 2009-10-03
By Robert Logan (SF Bay Area)
This is my second air conditioner of this type from Frigidaire. The other one I've had for two years and is the 8000btu model.



Both have been trouble free and very easy on the electric bill. The energy star features really seem to make a big difference and the remote is a definite plus.



These units are fairly easy to install and a great deal with the free shipping. =^.^=



I highly recommend these and have told all my friends about them when they ask me about my air conditioners.

 "great ac." 2009-08-23
By B. Onat (Woodland Hills, CA)
I bought 2 of these units to go into my slider windows. They are great, quiet and get the house cold quickly. The install was pretty simple too. I highly recommend this unit. Make sure you open the boxes and check them when they arrive. The first 2 came out damaged, but were replaced with undamaged units. There was a bit of a time delay to get this fixed because I live on the west coast and these units were truck shipping from NY. The company was good and offered 30% off to keep the damaged units (started at 10% and went up to 30%), but I wanted non damaged, so they promptly sent the new ones.

 "Works well with added support" 2009-05-28
By Mark Eassa (Syracuse, NY-USA)
Not that easy to install and needs extra brace. But it does the job you pay for extremely well

 "Great Product" 2008-08-31
By Thomas C. Owens (Slatington,PA)
Product, price and delivery service was great, so good I bought a second unit a week later

 "adequate but could be improved" 2008-07-31
By Macca (Los Angeles, CA USA)
This A/C unit meets my expectations based on the product description but it could be improved. In my case it is installed in a bedroom sliding window where it provides ample cooling for that room. The built-in fan isn't powerful enough to push the cool air into other rooms but with the help of a floor standing fan I get reasonable cooling of another bedroom and the living room as well. It will never be a substitute for central A/C but in a rental apartment, there is no option to install central A/C or even the ductless mini-split systems that would otherwise be preferable. I expect this A/C unit would be very well suited for cooling a large open room such as a living/dining area where it doesn't need to push cool air through doorways or around corners.



The digital control panel and remote control are decent but the timer function is quite primitive. There is no recurring or 24 hour timer. Its annoying that the timer has to be set manually every day. And the timer can only do one thing at a time. Either it can be set to turn on after the set number of hours, or it can be set to turn off after the set number of hours, but it cannot be configured for both on and off timers simultaneously.



Installation was pretty straightforward and took less than 90 minutes but the unit is quite heavy so be prepared for that. I'd recommend downloading the instruction/installation manuals from the manufacturer's website prior to purchasing so that you know what to expect. Other than that, the energy usage can be quite high if the unit is running 24/7 at a low temperature - in my case it more than doubled my monthly bill. I will need to find that balance between comfort/cost. Also, while this unit doesn't require it's own dedicated 20A circuit, it is possible to overload a circuit if you run this unit and one or more other high powered devices (hair dryer, iron, etc) on the same circuit. If you go much higher than 12,000 BTU you'll probably need a dedicated circuit.



My only other complaint is one that applies to all A/C manufacturers - the casement/slider air conditioners always seem to cost a lot more than the horizontal air conditioners. Surely the cost of manufacturing isn't that much different that they can justify a 50-100% higher retail price.



My unit was delivered by a third party shipping company (CEVA). I had no problems with them. They called and scheduled a delivery time with me and delivered when they said they would.
