We bout this unit about a month ago. It's been doing a great job cooling our 350 sq ft space in the humid Brooklyn summer. Very impressed with all its features, and it even came with insulation panels and everything we needed to install it. so happy with this purchase!
i bought this air conditioner at the start of summer. it was easy to installed. But when it did not work, I called customer service. After it was determined that it was damaged, and I had bought it online, the Frigidaire company bought it back. I was very pleased with their no hassle approach. It allowed me to buy a new conditioner.
very noisy - while the air is cold enough - the nois is very bad. I have this in the kitchen - thank goodness it isn't the bedroom or living room.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey Jamesjr, thank you for taking the time to share your valuable thoughts with us. What sounds are your hearing from your A/C? I recommend checking your Owner's Manual (page 4) to make sure that the sounds that you're hearing are not part of the A/C's normal operation. The manual can also be located on our website at ftp://ftp.electrolux-na.com/ProdInfo_PDF/Edison/16120300a04629en.pdf. I hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to reconnect with us directly should you have any other questions or concerns. Courtney
It cools the room well but I was surprised at how much louder this unit is than the 10k and 12k units we have at home. You can hear it in my daughters room when it's running in my son's room.

JoeysAC, pleased to hear that your room air conditioner is cooling the room well. It is normal to hear ‘high pitch chatter’ a sound of rushing air, gurgle/hiss, pinging or swishing and vibration. These are all normal. For more information of normal sounds during operation, please refer to page 4 in your Owner’s Manual. Verify that the original installation procedures have been followed properly. Pay special attention to any gaskets. If improperly installed, even a high quality, low-noise unit can rattle mercilessly. If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to us directly. Sincerely, Ruth
