Arctic Air Pure Chill 2.0 Evaporative Air Cooler by Ontel - Powerful, Quiet, Lightweight and Portable Space Cooler with Hydro-Chill Technology For Bedroom, Office, Living Room & More

I would rate it higher, but the power cord it came with doesnt really work with it. I thought it broke, but it was actually the power cord that stopped working. I ordered a different one and tried using the same cord and it didnt work either. Thats when I realized the power cord had crapped out, not the unit itself. So now I have to return the other one I bought and get a better power cord for it. I like it because it does what its meant to do though. I have it on the table next to my bed for when I sleep. I need it pretty cold to sleep comfortably, because I over heat easily when I sleep. My dog usually gets out of bed because she gets too hot too, but now with this she stays in bed with me most of the night so I feel like my dog likes it too. I like the night light option, it looks cool and its not too bright to sleep with, but its bright enough to see by when you wake up in the night. I also feel like it acts as a humidifier because I notice that the humidity in my reptile enclosures dont drop as much at night any more and I know thats probably good for all my plants too. If youre expecting it to significantly cool a room it wont do that, but it drops the room temp by a couple degrees after its been on a while, but when youve got it pointed directly at you it will definitely cool you off.

I actually bought this as a Mothers Day gift for my Sister and she uses it at work and she works in the back of a Bakery she says it keeps her área so cool the other employee now want one

I dont usually mind white noise from fans/air purifiers, but theres a shrill quality to the noise this device makes that I find particularly unpleasant. That said, it does a FANTASTIC job keeping me cool when Im working in my home office, so Ill continue using it despite the noise. I like the adjustable light. I suggest placing a towel underneath it when in use, because it produces a lot of condensation, particularly at higher settings

We bought this for our RV to help us stay cool at night. Most RV parks that dont have full hookups will not allow you to run your Generator after 10pm so I thought this would just help keep the room cold after hours, but nope we didnt feel a thing and on top of that had water running down the counter in the RV. I tried cold water with ice and freezing the filter. Still nothing. Turns out its just white noise at night. Mine actually stopped working for about 5 days, I was about to throw it out and it magically came back on. But still not cooling a small lil RV for 2. Of course I have passed my return date. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE REVIEWS. this is not good for even a lil small RV.

Our AC failed on a 100+ degree day. You can imagine trying to get service at this time.These were available for same day delivery. I expected something like a mini swamp cooler, but it is not! It has two little mist-makers that a small fan blows over. The cartridge is not a wetted filter ala swamp cooler -- it is a set of felt-like sponges that the wetted air blows by, not through. They will soak up some of the mist. The directions say you can pre-wet them and freeze them for added cooling. We did not try that. Heads up #1: It cools by evaporation --- if you are living in a humid place, it wont help you any more than a fan! Heads up #2 is the water. I suggest you use distilled/ purified water. Because it is a mister, it can fail due to minerals/ sediments plugging the tiny orifices. ( I suspect many of the quite working reviews are related to that.) Also, tap water minerals will give you a fine dust as the water evaporates. If you have a lung condition, you DO NOT want to add fine particles to your air. Heads up #3: Look carefully and make sure you have all the tape removed. I have one louver that will not adjust because I broke it due to tape. Heads up #4: Whatever you set it on will get wet-- so be careful of your particle board furniture/floors. Setting the louvers slightly up will help with the front drips. I note that one reviewer added a drip catcher to theirs as a fix. There will still be leakage from inside. The manufacturer failed to provide a pan feature at the bottom of the device. We are using those cheap plasticware covers (ala tupperware) to set them on. I suppose you could use a cookie sheet, foil, plasticwrap, etc for the same purpose. Another reviewer used this for the purpose https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007PKH3E4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Bottom Line -- I am happy with them (we bought 2). They kept us reasonably comfortable til our AC got a temporary band-aid. The outside fan motor was going out on thermal protection- which lead to the compressor stopping due to high pressure. We are waiting on a replacement motor that is Mojave rated. If the existing motor burns up before the new one arrives, we are OK with these little units!!

Since we got these units we have saved 100s of dollars on electricity. They are utterly amazing and last for 10 hrs

Directions are easy to follow, and easy to use. However this product is best used if youre in a very small tight space. In large areas like offices, I wouldnt recommend this tho.

I bought this thing to have on my desk. I stream and do a lot of other things on my PC. Works great! Only flaw is not being able to clean the water “tank” so use bottled water if you live in an area with harsh tap water!

My room will typically get 87° and it kept my room at a cool 82° last night and it was my first time using it. Its a perfect quick fix for now Ps makes the same amount of noise as a regular house fan

Yes it does work. For an individual, that is! Its not gonna cool a room but IT WILL cool you off. The only glitch Im finding is you HAVE TO have it lit up!! I use at night and do not care for any lighting!!! There needs to be an OFF for lights. Im adding this a while later but 2 Cups of water will NOT last for 6-8 hrs. No way, so, they need to clarify that. But. Like I said, it will cool YOU off. Now Im noticing after 2 mos of almost nightly use, it is losing its capacity to run on high. Im a person who cannot sleep HOT and this machine helps but Ill have to find something else if this continues diminishing fan speed.
