    I recently purchased the GE 5,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner, and it has been a fantastic addition to my home. It’s perfect for cooling smaller spaces, and it works really well in my 150 sq. ft. room. Within minutes, the room feels much cooler, and the unit operates fairly quietly, which is great for sleeping or working. One of the best features is the remote control, which makes adjusting the temperature and settings convenient without having to get up. The energy efficiency is also noticeable—I can run it throughout the day without worrying about a huge spike in my electricity bill. The unit was easy to install and fit securely in my window. It’s also compact and doesn’t take up

    This GE unit was an excellent value. It was purchased for the second floor bedroom in a bungalow style home. Installation was good and I was able to obtain the correct position for good drainage, however, the vinyl windows did not have a good spot for the security tabs, and I ended up putting extra screws in the window frame to prevent the window from opening. Performance is good and blows nice cold air, and the unit is pleasantly quiet. Remote is a nice touch. There are only two things I do not like, but they are minor: The vents can be aimed side to side, but range of movement is limited and there is no vertical adjustment. The second thing is that the unit starts in Eco Mode, which is fine, but the next step in the controls is Fan, which turns off the compressor and means you have to wait a couple minutes for it to come back on when you try to change from Eco to Normal. Minor quibble, but it would have been more logical to go Eco, Normal, Fan. Overall though, I'm very happy with the purchase.

    I purchased the GE 5,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner with Remote last year to help my mother endure the scorching Texas heat wave, and it exceeded our expectations. Performance: The 5,000 BTU cooling capacity was perfect for cooling a 150 sq. ft. room effectively. Even during the peak of the heatwave, the air conditioner consistently maintained a comfortable temperature, providing much-needed relief. Ease of Use: Installation was a breeze, and the included remote control added a convenient touch. The user-friendly interface allowed my mother to effortlessly adjust settings and control the unit from the comfort of her chair. Energy Efficiency: I appreciated the energy efficiency of this air conditioner. It kept the room cool without causing a significant impact on the electricity bill, which is crucial during prolonged periods of high temperatures. Quiet Operation: One standout feature was the quiet operation. It didn’t disrupt daily activities or disturb sleep, allowing my mother to rest peacefully in a cool environment. Durability and Design: The unit’s build quality is commendable, and the sleek white design seamlessly blends with the window. The compact size also made it a perfect fit for our needs. Overall, the GE 5,000 BTU Window Air Conditioner with Remote proved to be a reliable and efficient solution during the extreme Texas heat. It’s a purchase I’d recommend to anyone seeking a balance of performance, ease of use, and energy efficiency in a window air conditioner.

    Red light flashing on my ac unit from the second week

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
    • Brand response from GE Answers
      Posted .

      Hi there, and thanks for reaching out to us. We hate to hear you've had an issue with a red light flashing on your unit, especially as early as the second week; we know that must be an inconvenience. The lights below the touch pads on the control panel indicate which setting has been selected. There is also a light on the unit to indicate when the filter needs to be cleaned – the indicator light is meant to come on after 250 hours of operation. If this is the light that is flashing on your unit, you can clean the air filter, put it back in place, and press the Filter Reset pad; the light will then go off. If you are not able to resolve this issue with the light, our service department is available at 1-800-432-2737; there is also information on page 17 of your manual regarding your limited warranty if you think you may need to take advantage of that. We hope this information is useful for you, so you can enjoy your air conditioner without issue! If you have any other questions or concerns, we're always glad to help. -Sarah@GEA GE_Appliances

    4 years later and it’s still as cold as day one

    Bought this unit back in 2021, so that’s 4 summers of running this thing 8-10 hours a day in the hot summer months. It cools down my large living room nicely. I even left it in the window last winter out of laziness and despite that it still works perfectly and kicks out ice cold air like it did on day one. Would recommend!
