I bought this unit to replace a Frigidaire 14,000-BTU air conditioner in my living room. This unit cools the room almost as well, though it's a little bit smaller than the Frigidaire and has a slightly lower BTU. One thing I don't like about the Friedrich is that the vents can only be directed up or down, not side to side. I also don't like the method of insulating the unit. I feel like it would be easier if you could attach the insulating foam strips to the air conditioning unit itself before sliding it into the wall sleeve, instead of attaching the foam strips to the inside of the wall sleeve, which makes the process more difficult and less precise. (Of course, the Frigidaire had the same method for adding the insulation strips so it seems to be an industry standard, which is unfortunate.) Anyway, I'm giving it four stars because it does what it's supposed to: cool the room. And I've only had the unit a couple of months so I can't speak yet to its durability -the Frigidaire unit I had before this only lasted a couple of years, and getting any service for it was virtually impossible. Not sure how Friedrich compares in that department -I hope I won't have to find out for a long time.

Purchased under pressure with the recent heat wave. Very limited due to a/c sleeve size of most apartment buildings.Cooled for 2 weeks, OK, then waffling sound from fan speed on low, and bang sound when compressor kicks in, enough to wake
from dead sleep. Another fine American product that comes from CHINA, sell it to the Chinese!!!!! CRAP.

This unit is really loud compared to other brand, besides it took at least 15 minutes to cool down my 350sq.ft living room, it's not worth it.
