Product Review
Amazon.com Review
A relatively compact window unit, the GoldStar R5050 air conditioner is the right size and power for occasional cooling needs or smaller spaces. Operated with straightforward manual controls, the air conditioner efficiently cools up to a 10-by-15-foot room. It comes with two cooling settings, two fan-only settings, and nine-setting thermostat for a wide range of needs. Simple control tabs let you adjust the horizontal air flow, and the turbo fan promotes even cooling. A washable air filter helps keep cycled air fresh and clean. Low-profile with its off-white housing, the air conditioner has a 9.7 Energy Efficiency Rating (on an 8.0-10.0 scale). It measures 18-9/16 by 12-9/32 by 14-9/16 inches and requires a window that is at least 13 inches high by 22 inches wide. --Emily Bedard

Summary: Great Machine 2010-08-11
Comment: Bought this machine sometime in 2003. Had a little problem getting it set in the window, but from that point on...no problems. It has run almost continuously during our 90+ summers here in Kentucky until this year and we think the only problem with it now is the drain is plugged and there is no easy way to get inside the case to see what is causing the backup. Other than that, I would get another in a heartbeat.

Summary: great price works well! 2010-06-02
Comment: it's sad all the bad reviews but honestly when you buy the cheapest thing on the market your going to get a few duds i bought 6 for about $600 tax and all they kept my house nice and cool they are for a small room after 1st year one started to shock when touched lol 2nd year one started making a noise 4th year i ran a screw in one by mistake freon leaked out 5th year i lost 2 of the last 4 this year i'm only using one at the time. it can keep my room at 60 degrees the down fall is if it's cool out side then the a/c won't come on outside tempature shouldn't bother the a/c from working wall units are much cheaper then running central to 8 rooms and the 2 bathrooms and kitchen. i can turn it on one room then at night turn on the batroom for bathtime it dropped me electric bill like $200 a month so 6years x 4months x $200 = $4800 - $600 =$4200 in savings much better!

Summary: this AC just works and works.. have it for 7 texas summers 2009-05-14
Comment: I would say this product is super sturdy. Each summer, I remove it from storage and jamm it in my bedroom window for extra cooling. /peak shaving and it works and works.. perfectly since 2004. my texas summers are 104 F.
this darn thing is nt showing any signs of aging.. saving me a ton. as I dont use my central AC in the night ( why cool the entire home) when I use the bedroom only for 9 hours

Summary: Goldstar (LG Corp) 5050 air conditioner defective 2004-06-06
Comment: I purchased this window air conditioner at a Southern California Walmart in July, 2003 for $125. After lugging it home, I installed it in my bedroom(15X15)- window. It worked well during that summer, but now (June, 2004) it no longer cools sufficiently - it has become more like a window fan. I cycled it off and on every month during the past winter (Southern California style)as advised in the included instruction manual. The manual states a one year free maintenance guarantee, but doesn't tell you about the $50/hour diagnostic charge levied by their affiliated independent service organization. I am very disappointed with this Goldstar unit, and would definitely not purchase another. I previously owned a GE 5000 btu model and it was much more durable.
