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 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

Its great. I bought two - one for my computer desk as the computer room gets hotter than the rest of the house and one for my husbands desk out in the garage. Only had them a couple of days, but so far, GREAT!

I got it before it dropped to 3 stars but at most you will point this at yourself while you sleep and get cool air. Dont expect cold air or it to cool your bedroom even if its closet size. I add ice cubes all the time and blast it on turbo mode to feel anything. would i recommend you pick this up? Nah, save and get a window unit. or buy a 5-10 gallon bag of ice put it in a bucket and place a box fan on top.

I recently purchased this mini air conditioner, and I must say, its a game-changer for beating the heat. Its compact size makes it perfect for small spaces like offices or bedrooms. The cooling power is impressive, providing a refreshing breeze to combat hot summer days. The adjustable settings allow me to customize the airflow to my preference. Its easy to use, and the noise level is minimal, ensuring a peaceful environment. The only reason I deducted a star is because the cooling effect is more suitable for personal use rather than cooling an entire room. Overall, its a reliable and convenient mini air conditioner that delivers relief from the heat.

So 2.0 version is quieter, but this is only due to the fact that the fan on high is no longer as strong. High is now equivalent to LOW on the version prior. Also, there STILL is no option to turn the lights OFF! There is a night light that still shines in my eyes at night on my nightstand, keeping me awake. The other lights are even brighter than the previous version. We dont need to pay an extra $20 for a fan that barely blows and fancy lights that blind ya. Also, the air filter felt is less than half the other versions. I have allergies, and when though this is just a fancy fan, I NEED the air filter. Stick to the ORIGINAL version and price!

This is essentially a modern version of a swamp cooler, thats not a bad thing though. its very easy to use and simple to set up. Wet down the cartridge and put it in the freezer and it will work better to start. My only complaints are that this thing is loud and if you have it on high it runs out of water in about 6 or 7 hours So if youre using it in your bedroom while you sleep be aware.

my air conditioner in my apartment has been out for 2.5 weeks. supposedly they ordered a new A/C unit to replace ours, but it still hasnt been replaced. luckily it had been cool enough outside to crack the window to let some air in at night and i could get some sleep. it is the end of november but still 80+ degrees F in florida. i bought this out of desperation to help me get some sleep. i would absolutely recommend this to anyone who needs some relief. it definitely is not strong enough to cool my whole apartment, but it is perfect for me to get some rest and have by my bed and feel comfortable. i made sure to freeze the filter before the first use, as well as put ice and cold water from the fridge in the reservoir. this works perfectly for helping you cool down in a warm situation where a regular fan isnt cutting it. it is worth buying as an inexpensive option, but obviously is not as good as an A/C unit that costs a couple hundred bucks. i have the tshirt rag under it as the foam feet on the bottom left tiny scuffs on my table and i wanted to prevent more. the scuffs came off with water and a paper towel, so no big deal

Comparing the negative reviews to the positive reviews to my own experience, its pretty clear that most of the people giving this thing a bad review didnt realize what they were actually buying. This will NOT air condition your entire house. Its basically just a small fan that blows colder air than a regular fan at you. Like regular fans, that means will not cool off your entire house or apartment, but it will keep the area in front of it cool. And its amazing! We put it on the ottoman in front of the couch while watching tv, and having a regular floor fan behind us with this thing in front was way cooling, much better than the fan by itself. Its not going to replace an actual air conditioner on a super hot day, but its got just enough cooling power to be really helpful if you cant use an a/c (maybe because you live in an apartment and technically arent allowed to have one, or you cant afford to buy one because yiiiiikes theyre expensive). But its really helpful for if a fan just isnt enough to cool you down. Also because of its small size, I find I prefer using it to fans when its a little cooler out. Sometimes fans are obnoxious, theyre loud, they blow things over, but this little thing doesnt have the blowing power to knock all your papers off your desk like a big floor fan does. I like to just have it on the ottoman blowing on my propped-up feet. Its supreme. I see some people complaining about how you cant turn the lights off, but you can. You need to keep hitting the light button, you have to cycle through all the light options but theres an off option at the end of them. The lights that indicate what settings are on dont turn off, but theyre really minor - like, they arent really bright. I especially like that this thing is small enough that it wont be hard to store somewhere in winter when it presumably wont be needed, unlike those big oscillating fans which are awkward to find a place for. Cons: On the highest settings its kind of noisy, but its a steady noise level so its easy to learn to tune out and turn the tv volume up over. Also the plug for it gets EXTREMELY hot after its been on. I dont think its necessarily a fire hazard, but I would give it a few minutes after you turn it off before you unplug it from the wall. All in all, if you know what to expect from this little guy, you will really enjoy it and appreciate it. Dont go into this thinking its a $35 air conditioner that will put your entire home into the arctic circle. It will give a nice cold blast to the area about 6 feet in front of it, which cools more efficiently than a fan but isnt as effective as an actual air conditioner. This guy is an air *cooler*. Side note: Youre encouraged to put ice cubes in the fill thing, and it can take an entire tray of ice cubes to fill it up!

I oredred this expecting it to cool the whole room so I was disappointed when I realized that it couldnt do that. However, this is perfect for personal cooling. I leave it on my desk and have it pointed at me all day. I have never been hot in my room since this product. It does get a little noisy and the sound leaks into my mic when I am talking tho. Overall great product.
