Foreword:
Frequency conversion, security, fluorine-free, customization, these popular words used to describe air-conditioning products, you will not be unfamiliar. In today’s household appliances, if a model does not have a unique selling point, it must not be enough to attract consumers’ attention. But for some consumers, affordable, economical and practical is the only standard for them to buy household appliances.
In this household solicitation, users of Wanwei Power Grid provided a Gree single-cooling air conditioner purchased in 2008. Its panel is simple, faintly yellow and compact. It is a small 1P single-cooling air conditioner. Of course, its affordable price at that time was the main reason for users to choose to buy it.


There is no excellent technology and beautiful panel design. At the same time, the product has been used for 4 years, so how did this Gree single-cooled old air conditioner perform during the test? Have you successfully entered the ranks of "electric tigers"?
Today, the author and netizens measured this Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 single-cooling air conditioner at home! Wanwei Home Grid will give you a true and detailed presentation of the actual performance of this Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 air conditioner in temperature control, power consumption, noise and air volume. Below, let’s take a look together.
Low panel yellowing fence type is not easy to clean.
After several years of use, the panel of Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 air conditioner shows obvious signs of yellowing, and the grille design of the air conditioner panel is not easy for users to clean during daily maintenance. This is a single cooling air conditioner of Gree, which was purchased by netizens in 2008.

The air conditioner adopts the design of double air guide plates, and users can adjust the air supply angle of the air conditioner according to their own needs.

As you can see from the remote control, this is an older model with an old style, but the buttons set on the remote control are still clearly visible. Key settings such as mode, wind speed, sleep, wind sweeping, ventilation and lighting can be adjusted on the remote control.

● Cooling at four degrees an hour is not strong enough.
Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 air conditioner is a single-cooling air conditioner that has been used for four years, so netizens said that they are worried that it will consume high power and make the electricity meter at home run rapidly. Here, the author reminds consumers that if the filter screen of air conditioner is not cleaned regularly and the air conditioner is effectively maintained, it is likely to make the air conditioner consume more and more electricity and affect its performance during refrigeration.

Open test
How does Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 air conditioner perform in temperature control? Then witness it with Wanwei Home Grid and netizens!

Indoor initial temperature
Initial indoor temperature: 26.7℃
Outdoor initial temperature: 29.5℃
Air conditioning set temperature: 21℃ (unified set temperature for household evaluation)
Wind speed setting: stroke
Room area: 10 square meters
Test time: 1 hour
Analysis of indoor temperature test results;
The temperature is set at 21 degrees Celsius, and the air conditioner runs in a stroke mode, and the air conditioner is turned on.

Air outlet temperature
According to the evaluation data, after the air conditioner runs for one hour, the room temperature drops from 26.7 degrees Celsius to 22.4 degrees Celsius, and the indoor feeling is obviously cool, and the cooling speed in the space is still obvious.

User comments:
Netizens said that the purchase of this Gree single-cooling air conditioner at that time was just for the benefit. After using it for so many years, I have been very curious about how this air conditioner performs in refrigeration. After such a test, it is still very intuitive when displayed by numerical values.
● Quiet and comfortable for use in the bedroom.
Noise:
Any sound that interferes with people’s normal rest, study and work, as well as the sound that interferes with people’s listening. In this sense, there are many sources of noise, such as the sound of cars in the street, the sound of voices in the quiet library, the sound of machines on the construction site, and the loud noise of the neighbor’s TV.

Especially the air conditioner installed in the bedroom, whether the noise is too large directly affects our normal rest, so netizens said that we must measure the noise of the air conditioner at home.
Initial indoor temperature: 26.7℃
Outdoor initial temperature: 29.5℃
Air conditioning set temperature: 21℃ (unified set temperature for household evaluation)
Wind speed setting: stroke
Room area: 10 square meters
Test time: 1 hour
Initial noise: 35.9 dB

Initial noise



In this test, we measured the maximum values of low wind, stroke and low wind noise of the air conditioner respectively. At the air outlet of the air conditioner, we measured it from time to time, recorded it in the form of photos and showed it truly.
42.5 dB (low wind noise) -35.4 dB (indoor noise) =7.1 dB
45.8 dB (stroke noise) -35.4 dB (indoor noise) =10.4 dB
48.6 dB (high wind noise) -35.4 dB (indoor noise) =13.2 dB
Noise test summary:
This Gree air conditioner has outstanding performance in noise test, and it can operate quietly in both stroke and high wind, so it is very suitable for use in the bedroom.
User comments:
Netizens said that it was cheap to buy air conditioners, but in the course of several years of use, it was found that the air conditioners were still relatively quiet, which was beyond imagination. If manufacturers can make this kind of quiet operation more suitable for different occasions, it will undoubtedly be beneficial to our consumers.
● Measured wind speed of air conditioner: 02.29 m/s.
The so-called wind speed, in short, is the speed of the wind, the distance the wind moves in unit time. The wind speed of the air conditioner can indirectly affect the cooling and heating speed of the air conditioner, so we also measured the wind speed of this Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 air conditioner when it was running in high wind gear.

During the measurement, we measured the wind speed at the air outlet of the air conditioner from time to time, took the maximum value of different wind stalls, and made a real record with photos.

Wind speed test summary:
When the air conditioner is in high wind gear, the wind speed meter records its maximum wind speed, which is 02.29m/s, and the air volume is small.
User comments:
This is a small 1P single-cooling air conditioner, which can be turned off after one or two hours of use in daily life. There is actually no concept about the wind speed, and I don’t pay special attention to it, so as long as it can save electricity and make little noise, it is enough.
● Power consumption test: 0.7499kwh for one hour.
It is said that the current inverter air conditioner saves electricity, so the fixed frequency air conditioner consumes electricity? A single-cooled fixed-frequency air conditioner consumes more electricity? With this question, we tested the power consumption of this Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 single cooling air conditioner.
So how much electricity does this Gree air conditioner cost after it is turned on for an hour? Let’s have a look.
Initial indoor temperature: 26.7℃
Outdoor initial temperature: 29.5℃
Air conditioning set temperature: 21℃ (unified set temperature for household evaluation)
Wind speed setting: stroke
Room area: 10 square meters
Test time: 1 hour

Power consumption for 1 hour
Summary of power consumption test:
After actual measurement, the power consumption of the air conditioner after one hour of operation is 0.7499kwh, which is 0.485 yuan/kWh according to the electricity price of one degree of electricity, that is, the user spent 0.36 yuan/hour in this hour. Compared with an old air conditioner that has been used for several years, this performance is still unexpected.
User comments:
The netizen said that he didn’t expect an old air conditioner, and he thought it would cost a lot of electricity with the mentality of trying it out. The value after the test still made him happy, indicating that after using it for so many years, the air conditioner didn’t consume too much electricity at home, which was gratifying.
● Test summary:
Gree air conditioner has always had a good reputation among users, and although this household test is an old-fashioned single-cooling air conditioner, it has performed well in terms of overall product performance.
We measured the temperature control, noise and power consumption of Gree KF-23GW/K(23316)E-N5 in detail. During the measurement, we found that this single-cooling air conditioner has outstanding performance in noise, which was affirmed by users. Although the yellow and difficult-to-clean panel looks old, its performance is still outstanding.
