Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating :  - Great Unit
We were looking for an A/C unit that we could use during power outages which seem to last from several days to a few weeks during hurricane season. Researched the models and reviews in Amazon and decided on the 6000 BTU Frigidaire unit. We were looking for something that would cool our bedroom and adjacent office, and also be light enough to store elsewhere and install easily when the power went out. We did appreciate all the people who took the time to give their opinions.
Unit came in quickly (as almost everything we order from Amazon does), and after unwrapping it and reading the instructions, installed it in the bedroom window. Installation was easy - no tools or fuss. Except we knew this window was about 8-inches wider than the provided accordion side spacers, so I cut and fit a piece of plywood to fill in the gap. Also used duct tape to fasten the accordion spacers in place, seal the little spaces, keep out the bugs, etc. Turned it on, and it was ever so quiet. After 3 minutes the compressor came on, and it was hardly noticeable. This is one quiet machine, and cooled down the room quickly. Am now trying to decide whether to drill a hole in the bottom of the drain pan as suggested by some of the other reviewers, or wait and see.
Bottom line is this seems to be a great unit and I would recommend it to anyone. + See Full Customer Review |  |
