Product Description

The swamp cooler is perfect for the areas that central air conditioners can't reach, or in an area that has a high sun load. Unlike a fan that blows hot air, the swamp cooler cools personal space cooler than any regular fan. Great for the home or office. Save money and keep cool by using the portable air cooler instead of an air conditioner. Air coolers are environmentally friendly because they don't use hazardous freon. With less moving parts you don't have to worry about a compressor breaking down or freon leaking. * Features: * Cooler than regular fan * With remote control * Use regular tap water * 10L water tank capacity * Photo catalysis filter (washable) * Antibacterial water tank * Germ-free water curtain circle system * Three air-speed: H.

Bad - E. Pena, May 05, 2008

Does not do what it suppose to do and they take forever to refund you your money back. I would recommend just getting the air conditioner you get and install in your window. That is for sure it will work. There $79 at Target for a window air conditioner.

Waste - Michael Villagomez, May 03, 2008

I live in Arizona where its dry people say this works in dry places honestly no difference if i know what i know now i wouldnt have paid $15 bucks for this ur better off just spending three to four hundred bucks for a air cooler the only good thing about this unit is that it is quiet cause the motor doesnt push air, the high speed felt like a low air speed low was almost off..

No effect on temperature here. - Aaron Contorer, Sep 21, 2007

I live in the San Diego area, and a friend got one of these. Bluntly, it doesn't seem to do anything to lower the temperature, even when one sits right next to it.

Inexpensive cooling - D. S. Nelson, Sep 01, 2007

First off, this is NOT an air conditioner. If you expect your room to be freezing cold, this is not the product for you. It's a COOLER, and it does its job very well. It works by evaporating water. Try soaking a T-shirt, wringing it out, and putting it on wet to get the effect. It doesn't work very well in humid areas, but it works GREAT where the air is dry.
I'm in southern California, where the humidity varies pretty widely. I place the cooler six or eight feet from my chair, and on the hottest days I'm quite comfortable.
Benefits:
* it's about 1/5 the cost of an air conditioner
* operating expense is a fraction of the cost of air conditioning
* neat features! (timer, sleep function, etc.)
* remote control

Drawbacks:
* it's not freezing cold like air conditioning.

Swamp Cooler - V. R. VonGunten, Aug 13, 2007

This thing actually saved my life. Living in a city where they claim "air conditioning is not necessary", I almost lost it on that fluke week of 90 degrees! The room does have a damp feel to it if you run with the cooler for a long time, but MUCH better than the alternative. Also, with the cooler, (female talking here) my skin is 10X better due to it not being dry. My new kitten and I thank Amazon for getting us through the HEAT, for a great purchase, great price and shipping RIGHT ON TIME AS USUAL!
