The Black+Decker is #1 in portable air conditioners on Amazon and there are 43,000+ reviews while there are only 932 for the Frigidaire.

We just received ours today and it was easy to install. It cooled off our finished attic room very well in the 100 degree heat. So far we are very happy.

I noticed that Amazon does not mention btu DOE for the Frigidaire.

When last I checked, the Black+Decker model BPACT12WT was rated #1 on Amazon. I thought long and hard about it, but opted for a popular similar product, the Frigidaire model FHPC082AC1. The B+D unit does have a sizable number of reviews, but perhaps it's been on the market far longer than the FHPC082AC1. If true, the B+D unit would have had more time to accrue the large number of reviews.

The FHPC082AC1 apparently features R32 refrigerant, whereas the B+D unit seems to use R410a...a refrigerant that apparently is being phased out. I prefer to go directly to the manufacturers' websites to confirm products' technical specifications; this really is important, because there's a lot of conflicting information about portable air conditioners.

R32 apparently is the more energy efficient refrigerant, which, if true, would perhaps result in a lower electricity bill at the end of the month than a comparable unit running R410a. This is just one person's opinion, but I'd like to hear from anyone who knows differently.

The FHPC082AC1 apparently did not appear on the market until 2022, making it a very new product, which could explain the lower number of overall reviews.

It shows all the models of this portable air conditioner (8000, 10000, 12000) as being the #1 best seller. I am not looking forward to my first energy bill that is for sure. I hope it isn't more of a shock than I think it will be.

Similar to what bwilson73 had indicated, when I looked at the Amazon description, I was not sure about the **DOE** specification for the FHPC082AC1, but information found at the manufacturer's site did indicate the figure mentioned previously on this thread, 5500 BTU DOE.
