[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this to replace a 12,000 portable BTU unit that was using way to much energy during use to achieve the cooling needs I had (my portable unit was able to cool the entire upstairs of my small saltbox home). In the first week of use with the Frigidaire unit, I felt it was not pushing enough cold air thru to the hallway and into the 2nd bedroom. I was about to return it to the store following the return guidelines when I went to the store and spoke with a manager. He explained how to properly use the sensor. I HAD NO IDEA, as the directions were vague on that subject, that you could set the temperature from the sensor and then move it to another room for the unit to know how far and long it needs to keep cooling! Now it works great, no need for a second smaller conditioner at the end of the hall, (which we were considering). Once temp is reached I switch it to energy save, and it quietly goes on and off very efficiently.
Just bought this and installed it. It doesn't blow cold air. Brand New !! Read the guide and trouble shooting nothing resolved it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] good unit, blows cold. only downside is it's definitely loud enough to drown out tv or music even on the low setting

Uh oh, dswf! I can imagine how frustrating that noise must be. Please confirm the installation was done correctly, and take a look at the normal noises you can expect to hear from your a/c on page 4 of the following manual: http://manuals.frigidaire.com/prodinfo_pdf/Edison/16120300A04629en.pdf It is possible the noise you are hearing is caused by improper installation, or it may just be a normal operating sound. ~ Brandi

Hey Gigi6725, thank you for taking the time and willingness to share your thoughts with us. You can find some helpful information on page 11 of your Use and Care Guide under "Care and Cleaning & Energy Saving Ideas". Hope this helps!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the unit several weeks ago to replace a 12, 000 BTU Samsung window unit. The Frigidaire has more features, is smaller and weighs less, but cools the living room quicker. It also does it more efficiently with the remote sensing feature and does it more quietly. It is easier to install as well. The only minus is the Styrofoam fresh air/vent mechanism which could be more intricate and sturdy. Still I give it five stars fir all the pluses.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really happy with my Frigidaire AC. The price was reasonable. It's quiet. And it keeps me cool on hot and humid days.
