Our scoreNot reviewed yetSCORE4.8 / 10
Our takeThe remote-control version of Frigidaire's 5,000 BTU unit: same CEER 11.0 and window fit as the FFRA051WAE, plus a timer, sleep and dry modes, auto restart and nearly twice the listed airflow.The smallest current BPACT: sold as 9,000 BTU, certified at 5,300 BTU SACC and CEER 6.2. A bedroom-size unit at about 150 sq ft by the ENERGY STAR chart, not the 400 sq ft on the listing.

Watch out forNot reviewed on its own; covered in our FFRA051WAE review.Warranty is 1 year parts and 1 year labor through W Appliance (manufacturing defects only); W Appliance may replace with a remanufactured unit; transferred units and shipping are excluded. The listing headline is the ASHRAE number; size by DOE SACC. BPACT models aren't sold in California, per Black+Decker. Owners report random shutoffs and water sloshing inside on this model too.
