      Hi there. We can recommend changing the fan and temperature settings to lower the room temp. Also, be sure that ceiling fans or furniture are not adjusting the airflow back onto the air conditioner. If needed, our team can be reached by calling 1- 800-374-4432 Mon - Fri, 8:30am - 8pm (EST). Kindly, Anna Frigidaire

    Stay away, Fridgadaire brand isn't what it once was. Don't know if I got a defective unit but, it doesn't do half the cooling as my 3 year old Artic King. Not only does it NOT cool properly but, sometimes it "spits" out droplets of water out through the vents. Not happy at all, should've returned it when I had the chance. (It's been 20 days as of the writing of this review).

      Sorry to hear that, john. Your a/c unit should cool and dehumidify a 250 sq. ft. room. I would recommend you check for any type of blockages that could constraint even air flow. Please reach out to us at 1-888-203-1389 Monday-Friday 8am-8pm and Saturday 8am-6pm EST with any additional questions. Best, Maggie Frigidaire

      Sorry to hear that you feel this way, Mercy. This unit should cool and dehumidify a 250 sq. ft. room. If you feel your appliance is not cooling properly, please make sure you clear the a/c's surrounding from any blockage that could prevent air circulation. Make sure the vents are fully opened and the air filter is clean. For additional assistance, please contact us at 1-888-203-1389 Monday-Friday 8am-8pm and Saturday 8am-6pm EST. ~Maggie Frigidaire

    Ran air conditioner for at least 4 hours (11:30pm- 3:30am) on lowest temp. (60 degrees) at cool on high. Room never cooled off but instead got hotter. Room temp. after 4 hours of use was 92 degrees! Terrible air coditioner. Only possitive is the unit is quiet.

      I hate to hear about the cooling experience of your A/C. I recommend making sure that the A/C is the correct size for the area that you're cooling and all windows and curtains are closed to reduce the amount of heat that enters the environment. Also, you may find that if you have a ceiling fan installed in your room, this will also help with the cooling performance. I hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to reconnect with us directly at 1-888-203-1389; Monday through Friday from 8am to 8pm and Saturday from 9am to 6pm EST should you have any other questions. -Courtney Frigidaire

      Hello, Summer! Thank you for feedback! We sincerely apologize for your experience with your Frigidaire - 250 Sq. Ft. Window Air Conditioner.

      Hi Lola, the air that is blowing out cold is distributed throughout the rest of the room by air circulation. It should be normal to feel the air colder at a shorter distance. However, if your room is not being cooled properly, please contact us to better evaluate this matter. Best, Maggie Frigidaire

    When my AC broke down this summer, I sought out the cheapest replacement when visiting Best Buy. In this case, you get what you pay for. I'm only trying to cool off one room for the most part, but this AC struggles to do that while at max settings. Wish I'd stepped it up a rung or two when purchasing.

    Installed this unit in a very small bedroom. It seems to take quite a while to put out even cool air. Checked filter and outside to see if airflow was being restricted, but no apparent reason for poor performance. Lesson learned!

    The a/c should be able to cool 250 sq. Ft. I have to put it on the max temperature to get it to work well. I got rid of a 5000 BTU unit that was better but was too old.

      Sorry to hear you are not keeping cool, George. This model is designed for 250 sq. ft. or less. Try running it on cool mode with a high fan speed. It may take a few hours to completely cool a very warm room. The air exiting the appliance is generally 17-20 degrees cooler than the intake air. ~ Brandi Frigidaire

    AC unit didn’t work when I bought it. It was purchased as an Open box item and the remote wasn’t there and you could tell someone already installed it and it wouldn’t blow out cold air. But believe it would have worked if inspected better.

    This air conditioner is one of two that I replaced and unfortunately it just does not carry the same quality as the originals. Definitely does not provide the cooling! I have to see if it can still be returned.

      Hi, SmartChick! We are bummed to hear that you are experiencing any matters with your air conditioner. Some tips that can assist with your matter, is to ensure that there are not any items blocking the vents. Restricted air flow can cause the air conditioner to not cool as designed. If the room temperature is very high, the air exiting the unit may not feel cold. Air exiting the unit is usually between 17°-20°F lower than the Intake air, and may not feel cold to the touch until the room temperature is reduced. You may need to allow the air conditioner to run for several hours in order to notice a considerable difference, after making adjustments. If the information provided does not resolve your concerns, feel free to reach out to us at 1-800-374-4432 Monday-Friday, 8:30am-8pm EST at your convenience. Kindly, Ciara Frigidaire
