    Frigidaire. It’s a company that makes a lot of window-unit ACs and fridges and freezers and stuff. Stuff that makes air frigid. :)

        It’s entered the dictionary IIRC, meaning a fridge because the brand name became like the word for it in everyday use. Like sopalin for example.

          Wasn’t sure about the dictionary part and I forgot the word fridge thank you. :D I know people with a fridge looking just like the right picture (excluding the light and with a mark instead of Frigidaire)
