abunda_amazon_reviews Quick update - It was in the upper 90s here all weekend. I turned the A/C unit on about an hour before bed every night and it would cool from close to 80 to mid-70s in an hour when set on "high cool" and 6 out of 7. That made it comfortable to fall asleep. I then turned it to "low cool" and went right to sleep - no issue with the sound. The first night, I was actually chilly when I woke up in the middle of the night so I changed it to 5 out of 7 for the temp setting. That seemed to be perfect. It stayed comfortable all night. To reiterate - this is for a single, small room. The 2 rooms we put these in are 150 - 200 s.f. each. We keep the doors closed when they're running. If that's what you're looking for, you'll probably be very happy! But if you want to cool a bigger space, buy a bigger and more expensive A/C. See below for more detailed initial review: I bought 2 of these little A/C units for the upstairs bedrooms in my house. I live in the south and when it is in the 90s for several weeks at a time, the upstairs of my house stays hot even at night. I got these to make the bedrooms for comfortable for sleeping. They are small units, only suitable for a single room. The nice thing is that a single person can easily carry them from the porch to wherever you want to install them. They are not super heavy. I got mine upstairs just fine. The installation is also very simple. You don't need anything extra - the package comes with the top bracket and the side panels. If you want to buy a support bracket, you could but it is not a heavy unit so not necessary. Installation took me an hour in total. That included a quick trip to the hardware store for an extra piece of wood to put on my window frame. If you have a storm window frame on the outside that is a bit higher than the inside window sill, you'll need a piece of wood. This is explained in the instruction manual. Once we got that, it was quick work to drill a few holes and put it up. The air conditioner feels very secure and does not wobble. It also does come with weather stripping if you want to get all fancy, but we'll just keep the bedroom doors closed so I didn't get too careful. The unit is remarkably quiet! The extra piece of wood we added to the window sill probably helped. But it sounds like something I can sleep through no problem. It sounds like white noise - kind of like a hotel air conditioner but it is a constant hum so it won't bother most people. It does not rattle. But keep in mind, this is not a $500 air conditioner and it does make noise! It is just soothing noise because it is making the air cool and happy. Overall, I recommend this air conditioner if you have a single room that you want to cool down, don't mind a humming white noice sound, and also don't want to spend a lot of money.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Great little unit for small spaces;;Kim SM;;;By far this is the cheapest option you have out there among in-stores or online. It definitely gets things cool quickly (I have a very tiny bedroom, about 8 x 14 ft). My frustrations include- 1) poor window fitment- the slide-out sides do not go flush to bottom/top OR sides- huge gaps even with the insulation strips they provide and stuff I had to buy on my own.. Even with using tape, there's visible gaps, insects can freely come in, and it sounds like all 3 windows in the room are wide open sound-wise. 2) temperature regulation- (this applies to being on low or high cool)- If I set it to 7 out of 7- the room will quickly go to 68 degrees. Over the course of the night it will occasionally drop to 64 (which is nice I'll admit, but not nice enough for me to want to pay for that!) so if I nudge the dial to 6, it will within 30-40 minutes hit around 76 (NOT nice). The temperature really swings wildly so there's no one setting I can keep it up and have to get up when I'm sweating or its too chilly- I don't understand the poor regulation 3) After minutes of running, it will, with an enormously loud sudden sigh of exhaustion/expulsion, stop running, BEEP annoyingly, pause for a few seconds, then start running again. It does this continuously when running. This is incredibly high maintenance, I know it can get my room comfortable but it sure can't maintain it in a comfort zone (or do so with just normal/acceptable running noise). I'd like to say had I know how wishy washy it was I would've spent more for something with true temperature settings or a remote, but I'm really cheap and I'm stuck with this one. (Not saying if I didn't win the lottery I'd huck it out the window and get one in the $200-$300. I have it plugged into a very expensive APC surge/brown-out/battery back up unit in which a lamp, my Echo Dot, and my cell phone charger are plugged in (8 more outlets available). I cannot plug in/run my 5.7 amp Bissell Pro Pet Spot Cleaner without tripping the whole thing (as I found out a few nights ago when my puppy threw up several times in the middle of the night). I wouldn't recommend this unit unless you a) are cheap/broke like me or b) are not temperature swing sensitive and sleep like the dead straight through the night;;Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2019;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;Cheapest option out there, many frustrations;;J. Bush;;;I ran this AC for two nights at high cool, max cool, it is defective and only works as a fan, it doesn't cool. After running at max for twelve hours, the temp in my small bedroom was still over 80 degrees. I tried to work with Amazon on an exchange, it was a nightmare experience. Three hours on the phone before they would issue a refund, and a week before they can get a new one here, even though this original one arrived in one day. Not worth it.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2019;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Defective Unit;;Carrie;;;Great price and fast delivery. Installation was easy and keeps the room nice and cold. Works great so far and it's been a week. Everything came in perfect condition.;;Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Great AC;;Kryogenik;;;It arrived in pristine condition no scratches, nothing was bent, every single fin was straight. Setup and installation was easy, a little I'll fitting but nothing I could manage. It cooled my room quickly. Was less noisy than the previous Frigidaire model that was replaced. And 24 hours later ... A loud buzz. Not "I have to turn the volume up in my TV loud, I mean it literally sounded like I turned on a lawnmower in my room. I literally couldn't hear my own voice when it scared me so bad I was yelling. tripped it's own power supply. Now the air conditioner function won't fuction without that horrifying buzz. When the compressor kicks in my whole neighborhood can hear it. That loud. But it's not the compressor ... or the compressor alone. Can't keep the cool on but the fan function works fine. I just have to do more research on another air conditioner. If this is Frigidaire's quality control, it's horrible. I don't blame Amazon for the air conditioner quality or the incident but I can't go through the hassle of returning it. These types of things are hit or miss.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2019;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;it has a time limit of 24 hour functionality;;Tober
