Tools and Hardware Reviews of Frigidaire FAK104R1V 10,000-BTU Slider/Casement Air Conditioner with Electronic Controls
Customer Review: This Model IS NOT Energy Star Rated!
Summary: 2 Stars
The Amazon.com product description stated that this model was Energy Star rated and it is most definitely not. Only the 8,000 BTU unit is. Very disappointed that I have to go through the time and hassle of repacking and returning such a large and bulky item. To Amazon.com's credit, they responded promptly within an hour or so (on a Sunday no less) to my online return request, and said that because the product was not as advertised, that I will not have to pay for return shipping. I should also mention that we already own two of the 8,000 BTU units and they are MUCH quieter than this one. We'll see how the return process goes...Customer Review: Finally, A Vertical AC . . .
Summary: 5 Stars
You'd be surprised how difficult it can be to find an AC that will fit in a window with a 16 inch opening. Thanks to Amazon, I finally found one and it works GREAT!! Pretty easy to install if you don't let yourself get intimidated by the 50 step instruction book. My only but is the flimsy white plastic bit that they give you to fill up the rest of the window space. While it has a nice frame to slide into, I miss looking out that quarter of my window. I think I'll get some plexiglass to replace it. Regardless, it's a great AC that runs a lot quieter than others.Customer Review: Weird Clicking Noises at First
Summary: 2 Stars
I just received this unit, had it installed... turned it on and left the house... Returned to a lovely cool room and the air-conditioner making annoying low level clicking sounds... I am hoping this might go away...The idea of having to remove the unit is almost too painful to contemplate...
UPDATE: After 3 days of constant use, the clicking noises on my unit stopped and the air conditioner has been working great every since. I wish they would let me add stars to my review, but I dont seem able to change my original rating...
Customer Review: Slider/casement window a/c
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very pleased with my new a/c -- I was able to fit it right into my new Milguard window without removing the pane of glass. But, the measurements on the product were ambiguous because the actual opening needed was buried somewhere in the description. Also, the case on the front of the a/c is cracked and we didn't notice it until after we had installed it. On the whole I am quite pleased.
Looking forward to working in my office this summer in the cool air.
Customer Review: Life Saver
Summary: 5 Stars
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area by the water. None of the homes anywhere around me have A/C. Well it only took one summer of record heat for me to buy this and it is a life saver. It only gets used about 30-60 days of the year but it makes our master bedroom so icy cold so fast. I can not say enough about how much I love it when I go to bed. It is loud and noisy but not sure if that is even fixable.
