It was great when it worked. But it did not last 8 hours with a full tank. It only lasts four hours. I have only had it for a month and it stopped working altogether.

El producto es muy malo, nada que ver son su publicidad, entiendo que es marketing, pero tampoco hay que engañar al consumidor. Me llegò hoy, lo probè y no enfriò nada. Lo probè tambièn en la casa del perro que no es de mas de 1 metro cuadrado y no enfrìa absolutamente nada. Echa muy poco aire, aùn en el nivel màs alto. Sinceramente, no lo compren, no lo recomiendo. Yo lo voy a devolver, espero y me acepten la devoluciòn.

First off, let me begin by saying that this is a single Star review because I can’t put 0 stars. I was slightly skeptical, yet intrigued, when my roommate (who is a sucker for online offers and gimmicky purchases) ordered me an affordable cooling option for my room, to keep A/C costs down. On the day of arrival, we tested it out in a room that was already air conditioned. It seemed as if the unit may actually work for its intended use… to keep me cool at night. I ran upstairs, set up my Arctic Air unit inches from my face on my nightstand, in preparation for a hot night. Inevitably, being in the upstairs section of a single unit central air home, my room got hot in the middle of the night and I tried this PoS out. Now, not only did it emit wet, room temperature air at my face, mattress, and pillow… that would have been enough to discourage any continued use of this product… but the tiny unit was louder than my 30 year-old box fan, also preventing me from going back to sleep. And if the warm ocean breeze, and the droning of the “not-so-cooling” mechanism, wasn’t enough, the “gentle glow” that radiates from the unit (which has to be inches from my face to actually feel the device’s “nocturnal emissions”, which felt more like a spray bottle blowing on my face than anything intending to cool me or my room off) was like the corona of the sun scorching my retina, and clearly seen when I closed my eyes. So in all, if you’re looking for a damp mattress and pillow, like sleeping next to an idling garbage truck, and can fall asleep in the Epcot Center’s laser light show inches from your face, this product is for you. If you prefer a cool room to sleep in at night, get a real air conditioner.

Mejor de lo que esperaba, lei alguno comentarios de baja calificación, y coincido en que el este dispositivo es un enfriador humidificador, no un aire acondicionado. Funciona a nivel personal, no enfría un cuarto o habitación. Definitivamente no funcionara en climas húmedos tropicales. Pero su funcionamiento en la oficina es EXCELENTE. Ademas es excelente si hay algo de polvo en el ambiente de la oficina ya que lo deja el aire humidificado y filtrado… SOLO USO PERSONAL y directo al cuerpo refresca y sensacion de enfriamiento mas que sensacional.

ONTEL AA-MC4 Arctic Air Personal Space & Portable Cooler | The Quick & Easy Way to Cool Any Space, As Seen On TV YES – “ONTEL AA-MC4 Arctic Air” – THIS IS THE BEST ONE – This one has the largest cooling capacity, is very quiet, easiest to fill, clean, and has beautiful lights, which really didn’t matter to me but it is a nice touch. You can easily fill this unit and see the water reservoir clearly marking when to stop. I have actually had to move it back from me as I was quite chilled with it at about 2 feet away. At 4 feet it much better. Really great product! Also tried to dry the filter as instructed and had no issues. Again, easy to use and works much better than expected!! Am going to buy a couple more for my bedroom, yoga room and son’s gaming room. Thank you!
NOT EVEN CLOSE – $59.99 “Anbber Portable Air Conditioner” – VERY SMALL AND DOESN’T COOL – (Check out the comparison in the attached photos). This one is much smaller compared to the other 2 and is more expensive than the ONTEL. There is a tiny hole to fill the water and you have to add a little at a time with a provided funnel, that will surely get lost or misplaced. The LED light feature too is very dim, only being visible completely dark. Cleaning this one was much more difficult, and the surface space for the cooling vent was really a joke. I could barely feel the difference even though I had it on high and waited the recommended time. I am going to send this one back to get another ONTEL.
NO, NO, NO – DEFINITELY DOES NOT WORK – $79.38 “Homedics MyChill Personal Space Cooler” – AFTER A FEW DAYS THE UNIT LEAKS AND IS NOT WORTH IT – (Don’t have photos as this is in my office, now on the floor so the leaking doesn’t damage any more papers, electronics, and desk wood). This unit is as large as the ONTEL, and for the short time it worked, it did cool well too. However, at some point about a week, after I had it, it started leaking the full contents of the water reservoir included in the tank onto my desk, laptop, and important papers. I tried everything to fix this, as it was nearly $90 and needed to cool my office. However, after attempting every recommendation, including buying a new fitter, it still will not work. I was over this, thus making me research other models and purchasing the ones included above. On a plus note, it is attractive looking, but if it doesn’t work that really doesn’t matter. Hoping I can find out from my friend how to return it too to Amazon since it is a POS.
I have a beautiful office, with full floor to ceiling windows and an awesome view from the fifth floor. I very much enjoy viewing the amusement rides at Universal Studios and it’s Islands of Adventures each day, however, by 1 pm the sun beams directly onto the windows heating my office to an unbearable 90+ degrees. Finding a way to cool my office has become necessary and besides these smaller units on my desk.
I have added this fan (which also works well): “NewAir Portable Evaporative Air Cooler” – https://smile.amazon.com/NewAir-Portable-Evaporative-Humidifier-AF-310/dp/B009KGB4FK?keywords=air+conditioner+cooling+tower+fan&qid=1538267144&sr=8-6&ref=sr_1_6
I have also ordered this as well: “Honeywell CS074AE Evaporative 200 CFM Indoor Portable Cooler” – https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CQ41RWS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I don’t have a/c installed in my apt and I live on the 6th floor. Instead, I bought 3 of these fans, for my 1100 sq ft apt. These fans keep the apt cool on those extra hot days.

Sara Huisking –
I had one of these last summer and I loved it!! It is only designed to cool the air immediately in front or next to you, so if you have expectations of cooling a room, your looking at the wrong item. I spend my summer evenings often times just reclining after work watching TV or on my laptop. If I sit this next to me so that it blows directly towards me, I stay nice and cool, even if the rest of the room is rather warm. It works just like it says. My problem with it is that it only lasted that summer!! There are 2 problems, one I cannot control. The filter is actually not shaped very well and it touches the 2 electric elements inside. I noticed a burning smell, and sure enough, not only did that touching burn the filter, but it shorted out the electric wires. The fan still worked, but the water pump did not. I believe what the filter was touching was the wiring to the water pump. I did go ahead and buy another one for this upcoming summer, but this time I cut a small piece off the filter where it would be touching that electric wiring. I’m hoping that it will survive the next summer! Incidentally, I saw this same problem in someone else’s review and that’s how I got the idea. He cut the filter too. The second problem is that you can use tap water, but there may be calcium deposit buildup on the filter. You can do the vinegar soak thing, but it would be more convenient to use distilled water. Not a big issue as most water-related coolers and humidifiers demand the same thing. Fortunately, there are replacement filters for this and you can just simply replace the filter every end of season. The cost would be nearly as much as what you spend in buying many gallons of distilled water, or pretty close to it depending on how long you run the unit during the summer season. Buy now or pay later kind of thing. I still love it, even if it does have those two issues. I love being comfortable!
