The quality and efficiency of the Frigidaire Gallery FGPC1244T1 make it an immediately attractive purchase, but of course there are situations where it will be more suitable than others. For example, if your home has more than one level, you will definitely find lighter and much more portable models on the market. However, you won’t find a better overall performer than this.

 

Cooling Performance

The FGPC1244T1 has one particularly special stand-out feature. Its oscillating louvres can be found in only a handful of other units. These louvres swiftly spread cool airflow throughout a room, allowing for a fast, fresh cooling effect. The Frigidaire Gallery FGPC1244T1 ability to cool a room quickly is enhanced by its circulation technology.

Other special features on the Frigidaire Gallery FGPC1244T1 include a 24-hour programmable timer, caster wheels to aid movements, auto restart, and sleep mode.

Design

The Frigidaire Gallery FGPC1244T1 is by no means light. Weighing 78lbs, it’s possibly the heaviest of all the products we reviewed.
