I think I'll have to buy a second one for the next trip. If you need something more than just a fan that blows hot air, this is a good choice, and it cools the air down by a wet cooling filter.
It has minimal cooling, not as quiet as one would expect. I got a $12 fan from the drug store that works just as well.
However, I discovered a trick to force it to use moisture from the entire sponge, * Wet the entire sponge according to the instruction manual. Put it in the unit, close the cover, and turn the unit on.
It is very quiet, the front grill is plastic, it's and more importantly has no plastic odor which is a huge plus for me as I find that smell unbearable. The product works by moisturizing the air which brings the temperature down. The wind power isn't very powerful but you do feel a breeze of cool air blowing out of it. I was worried that this would be too heavy but I realized that the product itself is very light, just the batteries that take of most of its weight. For those of you who have it, you can understand that the inside of my car gets unbearably hot. To make matters worse the air does not work very well and really only cools those sitting in the front. Only thing is that the battery life isn't amazing, but that might be because I constantly have it on next to me on hot days. I got the knockoff version from eBay and this one is much better. I wish I could have given it zero stars, but the review system would not let you. As a beauty therapist, I know how important it is to look after your skin and how much damage a fan or an a/c can do.
This item is perfect to use when you want to cool off fast. If you wear suits to work, or have hot flashes, or anything else that calls for quick cooling, this is the item for you. They arrived in the mail in great condition in a timely manner, but using them is a headache. First you have to wash the sponges, and then you have to measure out the exact amount of water. This handy cooler is small enough to put in my carrying case. It's around the size of a large Starbucks coffee cup. Within 2 minutes, it felt as if the air was being cooled by at least 20 degrees. Of course the further away you are from the vent, the less cool the air gets. These mini air conditioners did not change this. After reading numerous reviews and finding that this product was deemed high quality I paid 100 dollars for two of them.
It would have been better if the air was strong so that both my girlfriend and I can share the cooling. It's simple but works!
It's easy to pack and not heavy so you can bring it everywhere. If you use it at home, you can take out the batteries and plug in a USB cable that it comes with.
