The problem with most lower-cost air conditioners is that they are not Energy Star rated, and they will use up a lot of power and drive up your electricity costs.
A great 6000 btu air conditioner with Energy Star ratings is the Frigidaire FAA065P7A. It is effective, efficient and easy to use, and itwill cool rooms of about 200 square feet. Its digital display and remote control make it easy to control.
The 5,200 Btu Frigidaire FAA055P7A is a small air conditioner suitable for a typical bedroom. Compared to most air conditioners of this size, it has quite a few features, including a remote control, electronic controls, eight-way airflow adjustment, variable speed fan, energy saver mode and brownout protection. With an energy efficiency ratio of 11, this is one of the more energy-efficient models available, and owners report that it is very easy to install.
The Kenmore 75062 costs more than most 6,000-Btu air conditioners, but for a low-profile unit, it's still a bargain. Features include remote control, electronic controls and digital temperature display, energy-saver mode and timer.
