 Excellent Unit, Well Made July 3, 2010

I just installed this, no problems, I'm very happy with it. I was going to buy the 8000 BTU model FAA086P7A just above it, but the reviews were very negative due to noise. This unit is quiet, and 6000 BTU turns out to be more than enough for my application. Technically, this may be a discontinued model, as the Frigidaire website lists FAA065P7A at the time I purchased this. The latter unit, which is still available through Amazon sellers but not via Amzn Prime, has a slightly higher EER of 10.7 (vs 9.7 for this). If there is any other difference, I can't see it in the pictures or the description. This is a good unit, with some sophisticated features, like a fan that senses sudden changes in temperature, as when a door opens, in which case it automatically blows harder to cool down the room. Pretty nifty. It has a quality build, with a nicely finished steel cabinet with thick enamel finish. The remote is easy to use and works well. Most important, the unit cools well, and does so quietly. I do recommend it.
Ahhh! Cool, quiet comfort August 20, 2010

I have had my new window air condition for only two weeks, but so far it is perfect. It cools my room quickly, and the sound level is actually quieter than that of my central AC downstairs. I am using it in an attic room that the downstairs AC does not reach at all. It takes only a few minutes for the Frigidaire to cool my room to 74 degrees, which is just where I want it. Without the window air conditioner, the room is so hot that I can't stand to be up there. The remote control works perfectly, and I definitely think it was worth spending the little extra to get the model with the remote control rather than getting the cheaper one with only the knobs. You can set this one where you want the temperature to be, and it will automatically turn on and off as needed to maintain that temperature. It works perfectly, and I can't imagine anything being easier to run. I must emphasize that my air conditioner is the right size for my room--I'm sure that's one reason it works so well. I'm very satisfied with my purchase. It is too early for me to saying anything about durability.
What a relief! August 23, 2010

Great to be able to order an air conditioner when the whole state was sold out! It fillled our need. Easy to operate and efficient. Easy to install.
 Worst engineering I've ever seen. July 27, 2010

Much like the other one-star review, I got one with a functional compressor and a dead fan. Frigidaire confirmed that it would need to be returned, so I ran with it.
Amazon was great on this part, cross-shipping the replacement with one-day shipping. A+ on that regard.
However, today I get my replacement, and it's the same deal. This one, when I turn the fan on, I can hear it start to spin and then bump into something. I dig out the flashlight and a coat hanger to spin the fan blade so I can see what it's hitting, figuring something might have gotten bumped or dinged in shipping. Lo and behold, the copper pipes are routed through the path of the fan. I'm going to repeat that.
The copper pipes leading from the compressor are routed through the path of the fan.
There is literally no way the fan would ever work without physically contorting the frame of the unit to bend the compressor mount just far enough out of the way.
How this ever passed QC I will never know, but you can believe I won't ever be buying another Frigidaire product. Defects occur, it's part of the normal situation. This, however, was just poor engineering in the first place.

When the unit arrived, the compressor worked, but the fan did not. I called one of the repair centers that Frigidaire provide, and they said that this was a "replacement unit," and that it could not be repaired.
Now we're stuck with a useless AC in our window and nobody to come repair it.
BLARGH.
EDIT: After spending more time on the phone with Frigidaire, I found out that a replacement unit is one that cannot be repaired. They have to have the entire unit replaced. Evidently, someone will call me to arrange an exchange of some sort.
There's really no way this could be less convenient.
