[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After suffering for years with a too-small unit, this one cools the room nicely. My electric bills haven't been too bad, either. The only drawback is that this unit is very loud.
[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.
