I wish I had googled "Fedders" before buying one. I would have seen people reporting that their smaller units are shoddy. I have had one for about 9 months and yesterday the motor failed. It makes a whining sound now but no longer turns the fans. I opened up the AC and found that it was a cheap brushed motor made in China. I also saw that many of the internal supporting parts were made of styrofoam. Furthermore, the grillwork was quite shoddy and was already falling apart after less than a year of service. I called their tech support to ask them about buying a replacement motor but they said they do not sell such replacement parts and I would have to take it to a service center, which would require approximately 2 weeks turnaround. As an aquarist living in Los Angeles, I can't wait 2 weeks because my fish would die from heat without AC running - so I am off to Home Depot to see if I can find another unit.
So, if you're looking for an AC unit, I would advise you to look at other brands. A low price may end up costing you more down the line.
