Good for cooling bedrooms
I live in northern Utah, so virtually no humidity, and I thought this might help with sleeping on our few summer nights where open windows is not enough. I got good results with this unit by keeping a gallon of water "on call" in the fridge, and then pouring it in right before use. Then I'll take a couple trays of ice cubes, and dump them in to make sure the water stays cold. With those two steps, the unit will cool our room by about 5 degrees for several hours. 5 degrees is often the difference between sleeping vs. tossing and turning all night, so it's a success in my book. The fan itself is quite powerful and loud (which I like, because I need white noise to sleep, but others may not like it). This evaporative cooler is not going to cool down large rooms or anything, but it is perfect for our small bedroom. Recommended for the price.

Good product, good price
its a good cooler, but mine came broken, I fixed it and works good now, but it is not being enough for me, it cools good a small area, but even my small room is not cooled with this.

Not as described
We have a lakehouse in the south with no air conditioner and I decided to purchase this for our bedroom.
I just read some of the other rviews and see a few people have the same problem I do. The unit is VERY loud. The review I just read said that it has to be fixed.
Mine runs out of water within 30 minutes and only puts off semi-cool air. One of the reviews say this is becuase of the hose. I bought this based on the description and it doesnt live up to the description.
So now it looks like I have to go in and work on this thing to make it right according to everyone elses reviews.
This is what is prompting my bad review of this product.
