Frigidaire 6,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner with Remote Control, Cools Up to 250 Sq. Ft., Quiet Operation, Eco Mode, 3 Fan Speeds, Auto Restart, White

Does the job. No noisier than any other air conditioner that sits in your living room 5 ft from your head. Is it super quiet no. Is it super loud no . Is it loud yes it reminds me of my old dishwasher. I'm sensitive to high sounds high pitch sounds. As long as it doesn't have any of those it doesn't bother me. The reason I'm sticking with Frigidaire is I had a six year old 15,000 BTU Frigidaire window AC unit never did any maintenance on it except clean the little filter screen to the front. Left it in the window all year long for the past 6 years. I was ignorant and I didn't know you were supposed to do anything to it. It kept working, I kept using it. Had a crappy tenant with multiple pets stay in there for about 8 months didn't even clean the filter screen and yet it was still hanging in there still reaching 60° in a matter of minutes for that particular room it was in. Had to take it apart wash all the mold out that he caused and 6 years worth of vegetative matter that got in through the slots, pine needles that kind of thing. The drain hole was clogged up. It came as a sleeve unit so there was no way to just take the bottom thing off and wash that off and it weighed over a hundred pounds, that's the bad side of a sleeve so it survived despite that extreme amount of neglect on my part. It did not survive us taking the back off cleaning it out and doing everything else to it. Waited 36 hours turned it back on. Worked immediately reached cold immediately but now the fan has this grating noise to it that I can't live with so I'm giving it to the handyman he can fix it and keep it. I got one of the 12000 BTU and put it in the same space that the other 15,000 was in. I just ordered a 12000 BTU because it's more appropriate sized for this small cottage. It sits in full sun all day long Non-Stop no trees relative to underground plumbing and wiring. Originally a concrete foundation shed that was converted from a 24 x14 to a cottage complete with open cell foam insulation drywalling , real bathroom in a separate room . SeparateCloset . Separate storage area main area has stackable washing machine dryer that vents outside properly, 18 cubic foot refrigerator, an air fryer ,coffee pot, electric tea kettle , two giant overhead ceiling fans, electric frying pan and microwave....All exhaling heat and humidity into the same space thats under 500 ft. Would I have done the space differently knowing now what I didn't know then , absolutely. Open plan would have been hugely better and much more energy efficient and one air conditioning unit would have done it. A separate space for the washing machine and dryer where the storage room is. When all these things are in the same area the humidity climbs back fast so this AC unit run in dry mode and eco absolutely works to maintain your temperature and can rapidly lower the humidity and does a great job of it. And if it would just cut itself off right there after the compressor stops I'd be sitting in high cotton. Unfortunately all the window air conditioners once they reach the set temperature and the compressor cycles off THE FAN continues to blow for the next 2-3 minutes ,sitting right next to a humidity reader. I've got like five of them in the room spaced out in different areas to make sure they're averaging about the same throughout the room and they do you're better off to turn the air conditioner off immediately and not let it run in eco mode if you're there. Since I never used to have a reader for humidity it's probably ignorance is bliss kind of thing, but it does go back up by about four points in humidity immediately on all of them when the compressor kicks off and it continues to run on eco for those few minutes while it blows the fan only. I listed all those extreme conditions so you can see it could do the job, it's doing the job with all this stuff in one room it can certainly cool your living room or bedroom down. I have another one of the exact same one that I purchased last month it's in the kitchen window I'll run the one in the bedroom just at night time and then the one in the kitchen during the daytime I do not need both of them at the same time and they act as a backup for each other if anything ever happens. Power consumptions not horrible in eco mode, but we're far from summer so only time will tell.

The AC came all beat up. The box looked like it got best up by Mike Tyson. There was a few dents in the back on the metals grates. Very minor but still shouldn't be there being the AC is new. What really bothered me isbthe AC was left on the porch upside down. This can damage the compressor, which is the most expensive part of the AC to replace. Additionally, oil from the compressor may migrate to other parts of the system, leading to potential damage when the AC is turned on. I also know that there is only one person delivering such a heavy item. Amazon should have a party of two delivering all heavy items this way they don't get damaged. Amazon also should train there delivery drivers on how certain things need to be placed. The driver also should've paid attention to the big warning on-the-job box saying don't leave onside or upside down. As far as the AC goes it works very well. I'm actually shocked at how strong the fan is. I've had many AC's over the years and this one really forces the air out like a big giant fan. This is a huge plus for me. Cools down room very quickly. With all that said if you are thinking about buying this AC take into account of how it will get delivered to your house. Will it come beatbup like mine, will it be left upside down for hours until you get home? I will be buying my next AC from a store so I can avoid the delivery issues

My purpose for buying this AC was of course for the cooling, but also to cover up outdoor noise during firework season. The AC has makes that classic "loud" sound, which to me is comforting. It helps my dog because the noise muffles noise outside. Installation was extremely neat and easy, the packaging wasn't wasteful and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I installed it by myself and I'm just a regular person with regular strength. The size of the AC is very small but it will cool down my entire 2 bedroom apartment within an hour. I'd recommend this AC to anyone who wants a simple, classic and working air conditioner. The only thing missing, as far I've seen, it will stay on forever unless you turn it off. They do sell other models with more features but if you don't need the bells and whistles, this air conditioner is the perfect choice. Be aware, that the cord is quite short. The price is unbeatable as well, it's going for over 200 at my local big box store. Cleanup was easy, the last photo I attached shows how neatly everything could be tossed/recycled.Summary:Pros:- Cold- Easy Install- Low price, High quality- Includes sealing accessories- Small but powerfulCons:- No auto shut off (that I know of)- Short cord
