Returning it- its more of a dehumidifier than AC

Would Not Recommend

The P1 code came up in mine also, it’s because it’s full of water. The instructions say you don’t need to have drain hose connected if in cool mode, and only in “dry” mode should you connect. Not true. Drain hose must be connected at all times and even in “cool” mode or it fills with water, and you will be emptying the tub frequently because this unit behaves PREDOMINANTLY as a dehumidifier.

New Back-Uo AC

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worked perfectly after the main AC went out, was hot and humid enough the fish could move in. Ordered this and room became comfortable again.

Quietness

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy installation and cools great. The only downside I find is the noise level. There is very little difference in the level of sound between low medium and high. I find it quite loud if I’m in the same room!

Works nicely!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave it four stars because of the price. I know, I know, "but inflation!". Doesn't matter. It shouldn't cost this much. It works well though. I didn't realize it needed to be drained if you use the cooling mode. Had I realized before purchasing, I would not have bought it. I use it on dry mode for now as to avoid draining it and it has worked in 89 degree weather just fine. It's not perfect but it is better than the DIY styrofoam cooler idea....

Broke 2 weeks after warranty expired, Frigidaire refuses to stand by product

Bought my portable AC unit last May, cared for it and stored it for winter per user manual. Plugged it in this week and it won't work. Conveniently 2 weeks after the warranty expired and Frigidaire CustomerSupport refuses to help. Stand by your product?

Satisfied with one complaint

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose Frigidaire based on the positive Consumer Reports rating. We operate the AC in Fan mode and Cool mode. Fan mode works as expected. On Cool mode the AC cycles on and off as the room reaches the set temp. When the AC cycles off the fan continues to run and there isn’t much dif in the noise level. My complaint is after the unit has been running during the night, in the early morning it will completely cycle off and then back on, both fan a...

Excellent value

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this to cool a west facing sun room of under 200 Sq. Ft. with windows along the south and west facing walls. It has a small enough footprint to take up very little of this already small room. The thermostat feature keeps the temp consistent. Even when the room, left vacant and the air turned off, heats up, this unit cools it rapidly. I have used the dehumidify feature once. It reduced the humidity 15% in 10 minutes. It has reduc...
