Sunpentown Evaporative Air Cooler. Conveniently rolls from room to room and uses LESS energy than Air Conditioners! The Air Cooler does exactly what the name implies, though it's not an air conditioner. Here's how it works: The Evaporative Air Cooler sucks air through a wick saturated with water. As the air flows through the wick, some of the water evaporates into the air, consuming the heat that's in the air. Cooled down, that air is then blown out the front of the unit to offer you relief in warm, stuffy, uncomfortable spaces. Note: Works well in dry climates; not very effective in areas with high humidity as the unit utilizes water to cool. Cool down: Remote control; 10L water tank capacity; Activated carbon filter helps remove odor; Nylon and photocatalytic filter; Three air speeds: H / M / L; Sleep mode; Timer: from 1/2-hour to 7 1/2-hour setting; Input voltage: 120V / 6 0Hz; Power consumption: 60W; 16 x 25 x 12". 17 lbs.; Order yours today and beat the heat!

Customer Rating:
Summary: IT'S COOL
Comment: This product works very well if you follow the directions, use the advice offered by some other reviewers here (like proper water and ice mixture, leave a window open, and don't use in a humid climate), and if you only use it for a smaller room. It does what it claims to do. It's a fan that blows ice cold humid air. It cools a 150 sq. ft. area of my house by about ten degrees, but I put other plain fans around it to help stir that cool air around. My only problem is that it's a bit of a pain to take so much stuff apart to clean it and that it goes through water a bit faster than I thought. It's well worth the money, but if you have a larger area, you need a more powerful machine.

Summary: excellent customer service
Comment: Initial item received had a minor defect. This minor defect does not affect functionality at all, just some sort of manufacture defect. Customer service rep proactively contacted me and offered replacement parts and refund. I was impressed with this company's excellent service.
Besides that, this water cooler does cool down a room when room is at around high 80. the size of the room is about fitting 3 desks with plenty of walking space.

Summary: Don't waste money
Comment: This does not cool as I expected. I wouldn't waste money on this unit. I have other brand that cools much better than this.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not worth your money and time...
Comment: Since I live in South Florida and I read a review from a person living in Florida, I thought that this product could cool my 15' by 12' room. All this product really is a glorified humidifier. I put ice, and even dry ice with water and it made absolutely no difference whatsoever. I think that this is a nice try by the swamp cooler companies to cool your room by at least 5 degrees Fahrenheit, but it really is a waste of money.
It may work in low humidity, but whoever writes the review from the Florida area or any area with high humidity, then it really is a waste of your money. Buy a portable ac instead.

Summary: Works But Needs Attention
Comment: This unit blows like a fan and does offer the benefit of cooler air, but only if you fill it with water on a regular basis.
We bought it for our 13 year old niece who came to stay for the summer and she is too lazy to fill it with water, so complains that it doesn't work.
If you are unlazy enough to add ice on hotter days, you're rewarded with significantly cooler air, as long as the ice lasts (maybe 1 hour).
In short, with constant attention, it's a decent, (much) cheaper alternative to a stand alone air conditioner.
