Walmart drops big discounts on LG and Frigidaire window air conditioners

Add as a preferred source on Google

With May coming to an end, we find ourselves in that sweet transition between spring and summer. Temperatures are rising, and a few days a week we get to experience the blissful feeling of being far too comfortable in shorts and a T-shirt in the outside world. But that never lasts, right? The blistering heat will quickly follow, and if you don’t have a decent AC unit of your own, you’re going to be sweating it out.

We’ve already gathered some of the best AC deals we could find from around the web, but if you’re looking for a name-brand option, Walmart is currently dropping prices on Frigidaire and LG air conditioners. With discounts as much as $200 on Window units, it’s a good time of year to pick up one of these cooling machines before the heat hits.

LG 12,000 BTU Window-Mounted Air Conditioner — $91 off

If you’re looking to pick up a window unit that can cool a decently sized space, this LG model is an option to consider. A 12,000 BTU air conditioner can handle cooling up to 55o square feet of space. This AC unit weighs a solid 93 pounds, so you may need some help installing it, but once it’s part of your home, you can use the remote to raise and lower the temperature.

Normally priced at $570, a solid $91 discount drops the price down to a more reasonable $479.

A lot of window air conditioners were made to cool off smaller spaces, like the 12,000 BTU LG unit above. So if you need something that can cover a much larger space, you’ll need to rely on something with a little more power. At 28,000 BTU, this Frigidaire air conditioner can cool up to 1,900 square feet of space. It also comes with a temperature sensing remote control to help you adjust its output from afar.

Normally priced at $880 at Walmart, this window AC is on sale of $679. That’s a nice $201 discount you get to hold onto.

While the other two beefier units above were made to cool larger spaces, this compact 5,000 BTU air conditioner was made to cool much smaller ones. If all you need is some AC in your bedroom to help you sleep at night, this budget option from Haier should do the trick. It can handle keeping up to about 150 square feet of space adequately temperate.

Normally priced at $192 from Walmart, a nice $47 discount drops the price down to just $145.

Fraimic’s E Ink art frame generates art from your voice and looks incredible doing it
Fraimic's AI art canvas is one of the most thoughtfully designed smart frames I've come across.
Indoors, Interior Design, Person

We’ve seen a lot of "smart art frames" at CES over the years. Most of them feel like glorified digital photo frames in turtlenecks. However, there’s one that feels genuinely different: Fraimic, and I say that as someone deeply skeptical of this category.

The pitch appears quite compelling at first. Speak a prompt into the device, and its built-in mic sends the command to OpenAI's GPT Image 2.0, which then generates full-color artwork that lands on a Spectra 6 E Ink display.

Version 4.20 of the Google Home app adds a handful of pre-built routines to the Automations tab, so instead of building one from scratch, you can pick one and turn it on with a tap.

Roborock brought FIFA World Cup fever to Miami and it was blast to experience
Roborock Miami Fifa World Cup event

World Cup fever has hit Miami, and I experienced a bit of it myself at the famed Aventura Mall. Robotic vacuum manufacturer Roborock hosted a pop-up event there all weekend, allowing guests to play games, win prizes, and find out about the company’s current lineup.

The installation, dubbed “Your Home, Your Stadium,” ran in collaboration with two of Roborock’s partnerships: Real Madrid and Miami Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired. So, naturally, there was plenty of Real Madrid memorabilia on display, including a shirt signed by France striker Kylian Mbappe. Real Madrid and Brazil legend Roberto Carlos was present on the last day of the installation to greet fans.
