Worked fine last summer. Placed in storage for winter (upright, in closet, and covered), and brought back out for this year. Cleaned filters, checked thermistor. Fan works in unit, but unit no longer cools.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Can't have it running if I'm listening to tv or radio or trying to have a conversation. Just to be in same room can give you a headache from the LOUD noise!

Terrible app

Submitted 6 years ago

By Kama123

Have this unit 3 seasons. The most terrible is that recently this season ac keeps switching itself to scheduler mode which is not set on any of my devices. The ac turns itself off and then off in the middle of the night I wake up sweating because of it and after checking I see scheduler light on while i left ac running normal while going to sleep. Every time you turn ac on either from your device or manually the unit never remembers your last setting and goes to default eco auto 72 degrees which is annoying to do every time. Louvers turn to the sides only resulting in air being blown upright into the window frame instead of sort of ceiling middle of the room. You buy unit for wifi convenience but that doesn't work.

Used one season. Although well maintained and cleaned the unit became very loud with fan noise. So loud we could no longer tolerate the noise level even at lowest fan setting.

Nice air conditioner for medium sized room

I bought this in the height of our summer heat for supplemental cooling. It cools fine, however the temperatures are all over the place. I have to set the air at 72 degrees to come on, then the room temp will climb to almost 80 before it comes on again. I was quite disappointed with Lowes when I noticed on the appliance sticker that the unit was made in 2016. The ability to control the unit with my iPhone works well

Best I've ever had.

I bought this for my daughters bedroom. Had no issues at all installing this AC. I had no issues with setting up the wifi from my galaxy s7 smartphone. The Frigidaire app works fine for me, it works anywhere I can control this AC from work! I also had no issue setting it up with my amazon alexa. The front grille and filter part is held on magnetically making removal of the filter super easy and it looks a lot better than most window AC units. The only thing that should be improved is the directional air vents they are very poorly designed it only moves left to right which would be ok if it could do that properly which it doesn't it will not stay in full left or right position it always moves to blowing towards the center. I'd give it a 4.5 outta 5 due to that one issue. The other features make up for the poor directional vents, but i could see that being an issue for some people.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
