TheAir Cooler works by endothermic reaction (a reaction that consumes heat), so this 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 was in the air. An air stream is then blown out the front of the unit and is considerably cooler than the current room temperature! This is not an air conditioner and therefore uses much less energy.

Note: The unit works well in dry climates; not very effective in areas with high humidity as the unit utilizes water to cool.

Tayama TC-998 Blue Portable Air Cooler Review

Tayama TC-998 Blue Portable Air CoolerThis thing does not work as advertised.

If you put in some ice cubes and water from the tap, you get some cooling action for about 5 minutes, after that you get a lot of noise from the fan and some added humidity to the room.This is nothing at all like a swamp cooler.

I tried completely filling the tray with ice cubes and pouring in 35 degree water chilled in the refrigerator overnight.I got some cooling effect for about an hour, after that it's back to being a slightly humid fan even though the water is still ice cold in the tray.Also, if you add too many ice cubes, the bottom of the tray will consdense and you will have a nice puddle underneath your unit.

After two weeks and using it 10 times for spans of 3-6 hours, the fan motor stopped working.I was able to return this piece of junk and am glad to be rid of it.This unit is also apparently branded as the SPT SF-613.

Symphony Surround Offers EnvironmentallyFriendly Cooling Review

Symphony Surround Offers EnvironmentallyFriendly CoolingTo replace an aging WhisperCool TF3000, I purchased a Surround early in 2008 from Air & Water, one of two or three Web-only retailers offering the Symphony products in North America at the time.Having acquired AdobeAir in Phoenix, AZ (where I live), their scattered offerings have localized somewhat.Interestingly, AdobeAir Inc. is once again known as IMPCO, the name when founded in 1939 by the Goettl brothers.While not inventing evaporative cooling per se, the brothers brought into being the practical form factor for coolers we recognize as the standard used world wide to cool down the extreme heat of Earth's dry climates.Especially here in the Southwest USA, the Goettls are legendary and now as an Asian company exemplifies the progression of globalization.Find out more at [...].

Back to the cooler...I've owned several portable/mobile coolers over the years and the Surround has the best performance of the bunch.It blows a copious continuous blast of air 17 to 20 degrees F below ambient when humidities are less than 15%.I guestimate its runtime is approaching 3000 hours and has evaporated incalculable thousands of gallons of water.In comparison to the TF3000's draw of 400 watts, on high the Surround draws 80.That I can run it for most of the summer, waiting on the monsoon to use my 3.5 ton rooftop Trane, the Surround has saved me over a $1000.It has held up VERY well, particularly the fan, pump and chassis, considering we have some darned hard water in Arizona.

But living with the Surround hasn't been easy as early on I discovered it was poorly assembled with some sub-standard parts. Disassembly and reassembly is toilsome as two screws are hidden under the trickily fitted control panel (where flimsy wires need careful handling) while some assemblies are held in place by the correct fitting of snap together parts.Until I got the hang of it, three hands were required.And the hang of it I got since opening the Surround has become near-chronic.

It stopped irrigating the "wood wool" pad after about a week of use.I got inside it and discovered metal shavings, plastic sprues and quite a lot of pad debris.Wow.This pretty much clogged things up and a thorough cleaning got the water flowing again.Here I also found a cracked t-fitting for the two irrigation tubes, fixed with a cable tie and aquarium sealant.The padding was sloppily fitted and I tidied that up some.But as time went on the irrigation tubes or humidity valve continued to clog with pad debris.I completely removed the pad and shook vigorously whereupon enough crap fell out to loosely fill a 10 oz. glass.Since then, clogging has diminished but as with any evap cooler, on going cleanup is a necessity.But with the Surround it's more often than not and unnecessarily routine and tedious.However, considering the exceptional performance, the maintenance effort is more than worth it.

Why didn't I return it for an exchange?One, it was highly probable the replacement would have been just as bad.Or worse.Two, had the fixes been beyond my capabilities or unsuccessful, I would have.

And now the nit-picks.The low speed is too high; I could use a slower setting.The casters are better than nothing, but moving a fully filled Surround is tricky on both bare floors and carpeting.On that note, there is no baffling in the tub and water WILL slosh out if you're too abrupt.I found the "humidity control" to be worthless even before the knob broke.The ice door up front is two by one and a half inches - you need to scoop crushed ice with a spoon or jam cubes one at a time.That's ridiculous considering you need a "ton" of ice for about fifteen minutes of three to four degrees cooler air.

The Surround has otherwise convenient features with a pretty and pleasant design.I would like to believe, as a now global enterprise, Symphony has cleaned up its act and quality control has moved beyond... crap.Personally, I would (and probably will) buy another, no questions asked.Even at twice its outstanding price, it is light years ahead of the competition.Right now it's 97 degrees F with 7% humidity and I'm comfy and cool here at my keyboard.

NewAir AF-350 Portable Turbo Evaporative Swamp Air Cooler With True Cellulose PadsMy parents live in Arizona and they constantly complain about the dry heat in the summer.I bought this evaporative swamp cooler for them hoping that it would work (these air coolers aren't really useful for areas with high humidity, but they're supposedly fabulous for really dry places).I had it shipped to my parents and they have been raving about it ever since.It's pretty compact, works really well, and is obviously way less expensive to operate than their central air conditioner.Would definitely recommend this product to others.

ADOBEAIR/COOLERS #P400 Air Port Evap CoolerI have owned this for a couple of days now and this thing works just like it's suppose to. I did a test with a digital temperature probe and the air out was 20 degrees cooler than the air in. I do live in an area that has daytime humidity of less than 10% which is great for an evaporative cooler. In my situation it cools a room very well that is approximately 400 square feet.

NewAir AC-12000E 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner With R410A Refrigerant Review

NewAir AC-12000E 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner With R410A RefrigerantI have always used an evaporative cooler since I live in a low-humidity environment. It works really well unless it get over 96 and this year was especially warm so we decided to get an AC for the bedroom, the warmest room. I did lots of comparing, reviewing and trying to figure out exactly what would end up being the best value. I saw this product and it was something I hoped would work.

It came quickly. The company sends you the FedEx number so you can track it and know when to expect it. After opening it, I was glad we went portable instead of window unit. It looks pretty cool and isn't too huge. The thing for the exhaust in the window looks good when viewed from outside the house. The air comes out very cool and gives instant relief. It isn't loud. The remote is nice - I didn't think we would use but we do. Not having to empty the water is a handy feature also.

I am really happy with this AC. :)

SPT SF-610 Portable Evaporative Air Cooler with Ionizer Review

SPT SF-610 Portable Evaporative Air Cooler with IonizerThere are so many things wrong with this unit that I'm surprised I've managed to remember them all.Some other reviewers have touched base on them already, but here are the details:

* You put water and/or ice in the top of the unit; you cannot put water where the ice is and vice-versa.The area where you pour water into is about 3x2 inches in size (yes, really!), while the area for ice is about 7x3 inches.You literally need a funnel or a small plastic tube to fill the unit up with water (see below).But it gets worse...

* Easily the biggest flaw: the water/melted ice goes down a tube and literally into the casing of the unit!There is no water tank, or centralized hold for liquids.The entire bottom of the unit is the "tank", if you can even call it that.

* The two cooling packs provided contain some sort of cheap coolant liquid inside of them -- they do cool quite well, but here's the problem: they'rephysically too large.The cooling packs are dropped into the bottom of the casing (where the water is), right into the water.They don't mount inside anywhere.

* The "door" for the cooling packs is too small for my hand (and I have small hands), which makes removing the cooling packs impossible.It took me a good 5 minutes using a pair of plastic pliers to grab a pack and remove it.The door is held shut with magnets, which is admittedly nice. But the door empties right into the water "tank", which means you might as well fill it up from the side and not the top!What were they thinking when they engineered this thing?!

* Water pump is a pump intended for aquariums.If you open up the back of the unit (which you have to do for water filter cleaning; see below), you can peek inside and see quite clearly printed on the pump "AQUARIUM PUMP". Most aquarium pumps I know are loud, not soft/quiet nor do they hum; and because the pump is screw-mounted to the bottom of the unit (which is plastic), I'm left thinking the entire unit must vibrate heavily when powered on.This makes you question the production quality of this item.

* Water refill line is recessed deep inside the unit due to how the plastic casing is molded; it's impossible to read, and it's incredibly important (see above) to not go above a certain fill line.If you go above the line, water will start to come out of the front of the unit, and the rear of the unit (bottom of where the air filter starts).

* The air/lint filter on the back is easily removable.However, to clean the water filter, you must remove 6 screws and proceed to wiggle/wobble plastic pieces until you pull the back of the unit out.Why screws?Why not some retention plastic, or a clip?Better yet, why not magnets like the ones used on the coolant door?You cannot remove it entirely, because attached to it (permanently) is a bright orange hose connected somewhere within the unit; it has no slack.You need 3-4 hands to do this job.

* The water filter itself is what looks to be nylon webbing, identical to what some people use in a clothes hamper.It's just some cheap mesh with some Velcro on it so you can remove it semi-easily.

* Manual states you must clean the water filter every 2 weeks.Yup, you get to disassemble the unit that often.Fun for the whole family?

* Much to my amusement, the drainage spout (if you need to drain the unit) is directly behind where the AC power cord is.Am I the only one who thinks this is a bad idea?

Should you avoid this product?Absolutely.I'm left wishing I could give this thing negative stars; seriously, SPT should be ashamed for engineering something like this.I realize it's somewhat inexpensive, but what you get for under a hundred US dollars isn't even worth it.

Unistar 4-in-1 Swamp Cooler with Ionic Air Purifier, DF268. Review

Unistar 4-in-1 Swamp Cooler with Ionic Air Purifier, DF268.pros:
- saves you in energy bills since it can cool the room instead of using the ac
- filters are washable
- the included remote gives you controls even in bed
- the 30 min interval timer feature is great specially when it gets too cold at night

cons:
- the ionizer feature is more of a display light than anything
- needs a weekly maintenance. water mineral builds up at the bottom, if you let it sit for more than a week, taking it out posts a problem.
- if you even find the time to actually clean the insides of the fan and and take out the dusts and water deposits, it would take a lot of patients since the machine wasn't designed for easy disassemble. (you'll need a thin long screw driver to take out some of the screws.)

bottom line:
machine is great as an alternative humidifier and room fan.It is a high maintenance machine make sure you clean it every week or two.

8,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner - EdgeStar Review

8,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner - EdgeStarSo, I live in a studio. Not verybig at all. You would think this air conditioner would be able to handle keeping it cool. Well, not so much.

Regardless of how low I set it, or how long I kept it running, it kept my studio at 78 degrees. It was actually a better deal to shut it off, open the windows/door and let the air circulate. It actually got cooler in there once I did that.

Moreover, the hose you connect to the window vent is an eye sore, and isn't flexible enough to let your place the unit somewhere convenient. So you end up having to leave the A/C unit in the middle of the room instead of neatly in a corner or against the wall because the vent hose doesn't allow otherwise.

This is pretty much the worse purchase I have made in a LONG time. Worse of all, it doesn't even make sense for me to return it. The seller charges as 12% "re-stocking fee". Moreover, I would need to carry the huge 70+lbs box up and down stairs to get it back to my work so UPS can pick it up. The box is very flimsy once you remove the nylon ribbons that it comes sealed with, and doesn't really allow you to transport it without spending some money on repackaging.

So yeah, I'm stuck with a $300 70+lbs paper weight. Good times.

[EDITED 07/30]: So I was contacted by the seller (CompactApplience) and their conclusion was that my studio was too big for the 8,000 BTU rating. They actually let me return just the A/C unit without having to worry about packing all the awkwardly-shaped pieces, and reimbursed me for everything, including shipping. Although I've decided NOT to try a different unit with a greater BTU rating, I'm leaving this review here so that hopefully people looking into buying this or any other unit are aware of the importance of considering the size of the room you're trying to cool down when you choose the unit BTU. I was remotely aware of that, but didn't look too much into it, and you saw what happened... Luckily for me, the seller handled the situation superbly well. A happy ending, after all. :)
