    This saved me last Summer. My room is really hot in the Summertime and this kept it bearable. I run hot anyway and getting a decent nights sleep wasn’t happening much. I keep the cooler on low without the pump running and it’s been great! This is an evaporative cooler, NOT an air conditioner, it should be noted. There’s a big difference.

    This evaporative cooler is a great investment, especially if you live in dry climate. It really cools the master bedroom when trying to sleep during the summer months. The water tank holds 1.5 gal and lasts a couple of days. You can't be the price.

    Very nice ice cooler fan you can add cold water on the tray and also come with two special freezer bottle to add to the container with water to give you a nice cold breeze of air. It comes with a remote control to control the fan speed and vents and also have a timer how long you want the cooler fan on .

    Does not work as well as I was hoping. Unfortunately I did not realize that the return time window was so short so I’m stuck with it. I would have returned it otherwise.

    Well Designed and Priced Nice

    Very affordable as alternative to smaller, less functional units. This one has a lot of functions that make it more effective. It actually pumps water up and as it falls through a filter the fan blows the air through the filter. You can add ice to the water or use the included plastic bottles that you can freeze water in and put into the water tank. Also this one allows you to turn on/off swinging fins that adjust the direction of the airflow. Also it has a 3 speed fan. I sit it on the floor next to my computer desk and since it is taller it is just the right height to move the cooler airflow over me; so it doesn't take up desk space. It even comes with a remote so it can be controlled via the on-unit controls or the remote. Very nice unit, I recommend it.

    I thought it would be or have more force and it doesn’t. It’s just a fancy fan.I don’t like how you have to keep putting water in the back for it.

    It cools and humidifies my bedroom so I can sleep better at night. The only thing I don't like is the beeping it makes when I press a button.

    so far, we're very happy with this air cooler - will know better whether we can give an unqualified recommendation when the weather turns hotter later in July and August - can't yet say yes to this question -

    Piece Of Junk

    What a piece of junk. You have to be right in front of it to feel any cool air. It won't ever cool a small room. After a few weeks it started to leak water and warped my laminate floor. When I look up my purchase on line it says it's past the return date even though it's only been a few weeks.

    Yes, this is not an AC unit but a newer version of the old "swamp coolers" and it works amazingly well. Follow the directions, which are very easy, and you'll have wonderful cooled air. With only an in-wall AC unit in the living room, using this is the bedroom makes a huge difference in a good night's sleep with the cooled air circulating. I would purchase this again in a heart beat!
