Great A/C Unit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this Frigidaire portable unit for our warehouse. It worked great until it became very warm outside. It worked great until then. It's not the A/C's fault. There is very little insulation. We are planning to buy another unit. The temperatures are near 100. I took the unit home. It works great. It just wasn't mighty enough for our shop. It cools down a room quickly. You can operate it from an app. I like the fact that it's on rollers. It is a great A/c unit. I will purchase another one. If you are looking for a great A/C unit that is portable, this is the one for you.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Portable works great the only complaint I have is the installation instruction manual not being the best and could provide better guidance.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a very large studio apartment (975 sq ft) and even though the ASHRAE says it’ll cover up to 700 sq ft and the DOE up to 450 sq ft, it’s been doing a great job keeping my space cool in the hot and humid Midwest. I use a tower fan near it to help disperse the cool air.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Frigidaire portable AC for a month now, and its hands-down the most versatile unit I’ve owned. With a capacity of **14,000 BTU (ASHRAE) / 10,000 BTU (DOE)**, it delivers enough cooling power and keeps my space refreshingly cool—even during Georgia’s muggy summer afternoons. The supplemental heat feature will be a bonus for winter making this a true all-season solution. Setup was a breeze, and the Frigidaire app makes remote control effortless. I love being able to schedule temperature changes and manage humidity levels from my phone. It’s also compatible with Alexa and Google Home (I haven’t tried the feature yet though) which adds a layer of convenience as one could control this with a simple voice command. Despite its power, the unit runs quietly at just 49 dBA, so I can sleep, work, or watch TV without disruption. The sleek design blends into my space, and the caster wheels make it easy to move between rooms. If you're looking for a portable AC that delivers smart features, reliable performance, and year-round comfort, the Frigidaire is a fantastic choice.

So far so good

I don't like to write reviews after using something for a week, but am willing to give first impressions. The install can be tricky if your window is non-standard (mine is an RV with curved edges so it was very fiddly and required much custom cutting). I was hoping this unit would be quieter than the built in A/C, and it is, but not by much. The cooling is fairly effective for a long narrow space but I do have to move it around to make the cooling more evenly distributed. I realize these are not designed for RV's, but it may be worth doing this review if others in my situation are thinking of trying one of these. I got this because it also does heat and I'm hoping it will provide enough heat in the fall to avoid my using the very noisy furnace or very high electric charges for a space heater.
In general, I like it, but it is quite noisy in a small space and must be pointed directly at any space more than a couple of feet from the unit. I might still go to a mini-split ducted system but will use this for a longer time before deciding on that.

Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed first impression—it’s incredibly helpful, especially for others considering a similar setup in a non-traditional space like an RV. It sounds like you've put in a lot of effort to make the installation work, and we’re glad the unit is providing decent cooling and some heating flexibility, even if it's not as quiet as hoped. Your input about noise in a compact space and the cooling reach is valuable, and your feedback about versatility and potential improvements is appreciated.
