    Works great. The water stays in the bottom a long time. Hardly have to fill it.

    Complete waste of money

    First off this item is not made by Honeywell! Honeywell sold the rights to a 3rd party Jmatek who does not represent the Honeywell brand well at all. This Honeywell Swamp Cooler will regularly start leaking and expel all 5 gallons onto your floor. My hardwood floors are completely and totally ruined. Being that I had no longer had a receipt and it had been longer than 30 days I reached out to Honeywell for support because there name is on the unit. Honeywell offered zero help or support instead referring me to Jmatek and mentioning hopefully they would make an exception for me. $300 wasted on this swamp cooler and an entire room of hardwood floors. I have no recourse in getting my money back and Jmatek will only discuss replacing the unit. But, I have seen multiple reviews about the leaking issue so a replacement is no good. I am out $300 dollars and Honeywell refuses to help in the slightest. Do not make the same mistake I did. Buy any other swamp cooler, just not a Honeywell!

    Returned it - it spat water & drenched the carpet

    I must have got a dud. I returned it the next day as It spat water & drenched the carpet. I bought an Arctic Cove EVC500 instead. The Arctic Cove and Honeywell share some parts - the water fill door & ice tray area are identical. Honeywell has a water level indicator but the Arctic Cool does not. The Honeywell is a bit smaller and has a (harder to reach) drain plug underneath while the Arctic Cove has a drain plug at the bottom of the back wall. The Honeywell filter is held in place by 4 screws while the Arctic Cove filter hinges out without need of a screwdriver.

    Basically it's just a fan. An overpriced fan. It makes it a little cooler but it's not worth it. I am returning it.
