Not very long lasting. Does not cool the same after one year of use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this air conditioner for a small room. It worked well when I first got it even if it was a bit loud it works decently enough and it was not very expensive. However about a year later into its second summer of use it no longer cools as strongly as before. Frigidaire wasn't really able to help. At least they never got back to me. I doubt they will replace it under warranty. I have tried all the troubleshooting steps. I tried checking the temperature sensor was not touching the coil. The filter is clean and not blocked. I even disassembled the outer shell in order to make sure that the fan and all the mechanical components such as the condenser and coils were clean and clear of dust and debris. nothing has solved the issue. The fan turns on as well as the condenser but the air it blows into the room is not cold. I'm out of ideas after weeks of troubleshooting and cleaning.
I guess all I can recommend is to avoid this model and maybe purchase from another reputable brand or maybe try a more updated newer model and hope that any of the potential issues were fixed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this unit 11 years ago and it still runs well. I installed it in our smaller bedroom, and after all this year it still does the job perfectly. No issues so far.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm very pleased with my new little air conditioner. It does a great job of cooling 250 sq. ft. and is not too noisy. The price was reasonable, too. I like to buy Frigidaire products whenever possible as they seem to work well and remain problem-free.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our kitchen faces west and absolutely bakes in the afternoon sun. The Frigidaire window unit was the perfect solution. Its profile is slim, so it doesn't intrude into the window more than necessary. We made it 'voice controlled' by using a smart plug. My only complaint is that we didn't do this sooner! I recommend this for three important reasons: price, performance, and appearance.

Hi, JohnzMom!
It's great to hear that this AC has helped make your kitchen a more comfortable place to be! Quiet and low profile, this model makes an excellent addition to a small, well-trafficked room that needs some additional cool air. Thanks so much for your feedback! We love hearing the creative ways our consumers use our products.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This unit is reasonably priced, easy to install and cools pretty well. We have to turn the TV up a bit when using the AC, but it's not too loud. We had to cover a lot of gaps between the unit and the window, and it's not super energy efficient.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a 132 square foot small bedroom and this air conditioner is more than adequate for what I need to stay cool. I end up having to get under my bed covers because it gets so cold. I am very satisfied with it.
