I bought this to replace a fully functional Frigidaire air conditioner that looks like it may have been in the wall since the house was built in the 60's. I replaced it for environmental reasons. I only hope this machine will prove to be as long-lasting. It does not cool as quickly as the old freon model but it does cool the space (about 20x15) quickly. I use my furnace ducting to move the cooled air throughout the house so it runs quite a bit in these hot days. It does occasionally have a humming sound for short periods of time that the booklet says is caused by humidity levels and they are high this year, but otherwise I can't tell it is running which is a great improvement over the old one. I would've appreciated a heads up on the three way plug that had a horizontal plugin and that it required a dedicated plug so I could've had the plug switched out before it arrived but otherwise it was just a matter of two strong guys muscling it into the sleeve that was already there, padding and insulating around the edges and plugging it in. Have only been using it about a week so I did not feel comfortable giving it 5 stars and will try to update if there are any problems. I purchased t based on reviews and the fact that the old workhorse was a frigidaire.

I had this unit installed in the fall. The heating function works great. Keeps the room nice and warm while it is 35 outside. I like the idea of the energy saving feature. The fan comes on every 10 minutes for 2 minutes, to keep the air circulating. The fan does not run constantly unless the unit is actively heating or cooling. I do wish the energy saver feature would use a lower fan setting for the 2 minute air circulating feature. It tends to be a bit louder than it otherwise would be, but not a major fault. I love the included remote. You can access all the features from the comfort of your chair/bed. At this time, I have no real compliants about the product. If there should be any problems in the future, I will let people know what they are.

I haven't had it installed yet but the fast delivery was great. I'll update later as to how it works. I have a Fridgidaire a/c in a window and love that so I'm hopefull this will work as well.
1/10/11- Had the sleeve and a/c installed today and so far it works great- love the heat- my house is old so there wasn't any heat in it with the exception of a fire place. It does get cold in south Florida sometimes and this will definitely take the chill out of this concrete block house. It's small but a few days of cold weather and you could hang meat in here. So far very happy with this a/c.

This unit is working very well so far. I like the thermostat so that I can set the temperature and it maintains it. The enery saving button uses the fan only until the compressor is needed. I have not used the heat yet but am looking forward to the same temerature control. If it keeps working like this I am very pleased with the unit.
