Customers are saying

Customers recognize the 500 CFM Portable Indoor/Outdoor Evaporative Cooler for its effective cooling feature, which is particularly appreciated on hot days. The portability of the cooler, with its convenient wheels, is also a notable advantage. While some customers find the cooler to be efficient in cooling small rooms, others express concerns about its price and the increased humidity levels it can create in a room.

    I bought this for my small bedroom during the heatwave. It has kept me and my room cool and I love the cool/humidifier setting which I use at night while sleeping. It helps keep the air moisturizer so I don’t wake up with dry congestion.

    the fan is easy to maintain, but it does not quite col a room down as advertised. it does indeed blow cool air, but not enough to cool a room of 250 sq.ft.

    Bought this unit to place inside my trucks camper shell for a long trip with our dog as an extra cooling option. It did not blow as cold as I was hoping for, but it did assist in the air circulation. It's also a little noisier than expected when using inside the house.

    The fan produced plenty of air to cover a room completely. The cooling feature is especially nice on a hot day.

    This would be a fantastic product if I lived in the Southwest. Unfortunately, I live in Indiana, so when the humidity is above 70%, the cooler is a little ineffective.

    I would give this five stars, but it requires more then one ice pack to stay cool during a normal eight hour sleep at night. Use two or three if you can if you want more then just a fan.

    This does not use up as much electricity as an air conditioner. If you do not mind filling up the pan with water and ice, it is a Good alternative to Air conditioner.

    The evaporative cooler works good once the water pad is completely soaked. Works well with just cold water, but the two ice packs help a little bit more.

    Maybe it is not the product fault and it is just that I was asking for something different, I wanted to have a cool room for my pc gaming sessions but this is not the product for that, I get the same result with a regular powerful fan, so it is good but not what I needed.

    Electric fan, that’s all

    It’s a typical fan that sucks water to moisturize the air it blows. Nothing fancy, so it’s a wonder why this thing is so expensive. It barely cools the air like it claims. Adding ice helps a little but is very fleeting.

    Great cooling unit for NW Oregon!

    This evaporative cooler is great for my small flat. No venting means it's truly portable and doesn't require a window. Also, when the cooler function isn't necessary the unit operates as a fan. However, it's not a traditional fan with two grilles. The intake air is filtered and forced through the single grille. I don't mind using the unit in the kitchen whilst cooking because less dust is moved throughought the room!
