VIVOHOME Portable Evaporative Air Cooler 110V 65W Fan Humidifier with LED Display and Remote Control Ice Box for Indoor Home Office Dorms ETL Listed

EDIT: I said I'd update this after I got some use out of it. It's easy to use and mostly hassle free. I do have one recommendation though.That is, get some potable water purification tablets or something. Keep in mind that you're going to be using water for refills and such, and I let mine sit unused for a few days and after using it again, even with changing the water it was kind of funky, like stale water in a fish tank.I cleaned it, washed it out and it helped, but how do you clean in the lines without dismantling it.So I got some potable water purification tablets and put it in the water container in the back. It worked great. Smells fresh and clean.A while back, my AC unit went out, and I just didn't have the money to replace it (it's out of warranty).I'm saving up to buy one, but in the meanwhile, the heat is on us and for a couple days it was almost 90 in the house. I don't mind it in the day, but at night when I'm trying to sleep? ugh! Misery.So, after shopping around for a while I decided on tis model, as opposed to a window AC unit, (no point since I'll have the big unit outside replaced soon enough. I ust needed something to keep me cool while I sleep).After reading the reviews I was prepared. I had enough cold water to fill the tank ready ahead of time.The set up was super easy. I filled it up with the cold water, turned it on. It took a minute to cool, (and the ice packs are in the freezer), but yeah. It works! Only been on a little while and my room is much cooler already.I'd imagine though that what people say is true. The water has to be cold and/or it needs the ice packs for it to be ice cold but I don't need it ice cold.I just need it to keep the room below the temperature of the surface of the sun while I sleep lol.It's a good buy. I highly recommend it.

I wanted to love this for a very small upstairs bedroom that gets very warm in the summer. I’ve had a basic $10 oscillating fan but I don’t want to go another summer in a hot bedroom again. The first thing I noticed after powering on is the noise. Holy moly this thing is loud. Especially if you put it on the sleep setting. At first (with ice packs only) the air seemed cool and I was pleased. About 10 mins later the air turned almost stagnant. The room filled with humidity so it actually felt warmer than before I even turned it on. I tried adding more ice packs but that didn’t help. Also the pump which was connected by zip tie for shipping is very difficult to take out for cleaning purposes. I’d never pay this price for a fan so it’s going back. So disappointed.

This unit does not bring down the temperature in the room but with ice and blowing directly at you its great. It really cools me down and the wind blows pretty hard. The ice packs it came with defrost very fast and 1 already burst in the freezer, you need extra frozen water bottles to keep the water cold. The reservoir holds enough water for roughly 7 hours which is great. it does not leak. Its not too heavy and with wheels its easy to roll to other rooms. Remote is very handy and works well. Its not too loud and doesnt interrupt my sleep. Ive had it a month now and will be buying one for my daughters room soon.

This product...has a power fan it does has one set of moving vents that will move the air around more easily. It has casters for easy rolling so it can be moved to various locations. The "cooling" feature leaves a little disappointment. You fill the tub up with refrigerated cold tap water or both the refrigerated cold tap water and ice mix. You can feel the change. You feel the coolness in the air coming from the unit. However, this is very temporary, it has a pump that pulls the water up into the filter and then it flows back into the tank like a faucet. Therefore you water nor ice keep for short term, I say 15 min max. After that you really have to be sitting in front to feel any coolness. Hubby likes it thinks it worth the tending to for the benefit.I'm not sure how it would (or could) work differently, but if that water would not flow so quickly back into the container of "cold" ice and water the ice would last longer and you could longer cooling time. Even using the frozen packs they thaw in the same time, I believe it is just like putting them under a faucet and expecting the ice to keep. It isn't going to happen! But the husband likes it!

I love the size of the product, not to big or heavy. I can carry up and down the stairs with no problem. They have to areas on it where you can easily grip it. The air comes out so cool, without you hitting the cool button. But if you choose to it feels amazing. The design is sleek looking and I didn't know it has a swing feature (oscillator) I slept so good last night. I ran it all evening and night and the water was still sitting in its tray. It comes with the ice blocks to make it cooler but you don't have to use them. I just sent the link to my sister for her to purchase too.

Very disappointed in this product. Can't even cool a small room!

I brought this as a gift for my friend who stays in Arizona. My friend always mention about VIVOHOME brand and how their products are! This Air conditioner produce lot of cool and works wonderfully! Easy to install, it has a swing mode where the vents fan up and down and cool the room quickly. Great Av at great price! It has soft touch buttons and has remote control.

Wanted something to help cool off our bedroom, (200 Sq ft) and this product does nothing to help. It is basically an overpriced fan. If you completely fill the water tray with ice water, it will provide cooling for maybe 5-10 minutes and then the air goes back to room temp. In addition, the item looks to be refurbished. Right out of the box there are a few noticeable scuffs, after peeling the plastic wrap off of the unit there are lots of small scratches that look like wear and tear that occurred over time. Get a portable air conditioner or window ac unit instead. Don't spend $180 on a weak fan.
