A topological space such that each point in the closure of a subset A is the limit of a sequence in A is called a Fréchet space. It is shown that the product of a first countable space with a locally sequentially compact Fréchet space is Fréchet. It is shown using the continuum hypothesis that the product of two compact Hausdorff‐Fréchet spaces need not be Fréchet. This answers a question posed by E. A. Michael in [ 7 ] and a question posed by J. D. Pryce in [ 8 ].
