My husband and I purchased this as the temps were starting to rise this summer. We liked the idea of having something that is portable and a bit more energy efficient than an AC unit. We were a little skeptical but it works great. Like a fan but colder. It is especially helpful for hot nights. We have slept great. The only draw back is that you need to stay on top of making ice and it does need to be emptied periodically so it can dry out to prevent it smelling mildewy. Very glad we made this purchase

Make sure you read the directions. It works really well when you understand how to use it properly, 5 minutes of reading is all it takes... Keeps me very cool!

I purchased 2 before this one....am very impressed so far! Very easy to install! Only downfall is the drain tube...I live in Florida so a lot of water but unit is relatively quiet and cools the room great very quickly!

Feel disappointed, first time i ordered it online after receiving it is used and several damage on the surface, so i returned it.

I actually returned the merchandise because it just flooded my carpet, when it's on, it goes on and off and blows a lot of water outside. The water gauge was not too visible that I overfilled it with water that wet the carpet. I was so unhappy using it so I returned it just in time 14 days.

Cooler ends up smelling like rotten eggs sometimes BUT that's very normal with swamp coolers (hence the name swamp cooler). It does it's job, wish it was a bit cheaper when I bought it but other than that it'll cool your room, make sure you have adequate ventilation for it to work optimally.

It takes about 7 gallons of water to get to the max fill line. I think it takes about 4 gallons just to get to the min fill line. It has a "funky" smell for the first day or too which it states in the manual. Too much work to fill with 3-4 gallons of water every day. Also you need to clean the water out every once in a while. When you need to store it you need to drain the 4-5 gallons of water and clean the unit. It does keep you cooler than a good fan but fans are cheaper, less bulky and less work. Ended up getting a Dyson tower fan for $250 (they normally go for $400). Also got the Honeywell Quiet Set tower fan for $60.

Hi, We appreciate hearing about your experience. One thing to note about the application of Evaporative Air Coolers is that they are ideal for dry climates with humidity of less than 60%. They also require windows or a door to be open for cross ventilation to allow the warm and cool air to circulate. Feel free to reach out to us so we can recommend a unit that'll work best for your situation. Please give us a call at 1-800-474-2147 between 8:30 am and 5:30 pm EST Monday through Friday or send us an email at usinfo@jmatek.com so we can help. Thank you.

This Item came cracked and was missing all books. Ended up returning it anyway because you had to add water or ice to make it cool.

I love this air cooler. I fill it once in morning possibly at night and it keeps my bedroom cool all the time.

Doesn't get as cool as hoped, have to constantly put ice in it.

Doesn’t get as cool as I thought it would. Very disappointing with what the description said it would do. I have it on a small room and it barely cools it at all.

I bought this for my crippled son who lives in a basement. He is really pleased with how cool he feels with it on.

I’ve had mine for over a year it gets cool but not like I expected it to. I keep it because I payed to much money for it.

It was too big and there was no hose attached to drain the water when it gets full
