JML Air Cooler, Portable Fan and Humidifier - Chillmax Air Pure Chill 2.0, 4-Speed Settings with Dual Mist Spray Jets, Evaporative Hydro-Chill Filter, Easy Clean Alternative Air Conditioning Unit

Well I purchased three of these - one each for my two grandchildren and one to share between me in the kitchen and the doggo. Very pleasantly surprised at how powerful they are. Grandson got on well with his - definitely helped him to sleep - bit noisy but I think that helped him relax! Grand daughter yet to use hers. It's very good to have on the worktop while working in the kitchen. It doesn't cool the whole room, but certainly 4-5 ft distance for personal cooling down! I'll know for sure when I do the ironing. But yes, very pleased and would definitely buy it again.

Why did you choose this product over others?:This is really good for the hot summer UK heatwave nights. Not powerful enough to cool a room down like it says but its a game changer for night times. Pop it next to your bed fix the slats to point to your body slide the ice felt thing in maybe pop some ice in the water then press on let that freezing air cool you down and let yourself have a good night's sleep. I recommend it for that or for single person use!

Just arrived, works great. Enjoying the extra cooling provided nice to see that it takes a standard USB-C connection as well, so is more portable than the previous version.

Can be very noisy on the high setting you have to keep freezing the filter to make it blow cold air it does make the room a bit cooler

I've used similar devices in the past, so with the current warm spell I thought I'd treat myself. However, this is not like the devices of the past; in some ways it's better designed, but it's also utterly useless!Following the instructions to soak the filter before use, I took note of the ambient room temperature (26.9 degrees), then placed the cooler 6" away from the thermometer. After 15 minutes, the best cooling effect I've measured was 1.2 degrees. All that from a fan measuring ~65 dB from my seat, 70 dB if you get close enough to feel the air moving in front of the device.Ironically, the best cooling was achieved with the fan speed on the lowest level. Opening the front tray, I see that there's only a drop of water in the evaporation chamber, meaning that virtually no water is feeding through from the resevoir. The only cooling effect my unit provided was from water pre-soaked into the front filter, not from the resevoir, after 20 minutes of running the filter was bone dry.Returned as clearly defective, but given the loudness of the fan, I could not have used it on my office desk anyway.

Absolutely in love with this item. It doesn’t cool ‘the room’ but it cools me. The noise isn’t LOUD, it’s like a dull white noise. I’ve had it on all of the settings and can safely say it’s kept me cool. Used from receiving delivery yesterday and over night, with and without ice. Doesn’t need ice, it’s cool enough for me

Pluses:Cold air up to 4 or 5 ft away....if....you use cold water (I keep a bottle in the fridge and recycle as required). During heatwave ice and/or filter in freezer (I find couple of minutes sufficient). Noise easily drowns out - not as bad as reviews I've seen. Colour change nice.Cons: plug heats up on full setting. remote would be perfect to manage lights and amend level of flow once body temp regulates. Removable water chamber even better as annoying to have to unplug and carry whole unit to empty it (unless I've missed something). One refill can last days.All in all great little unit for my needs and recommend even at 30+ degrees centigrade. At one point I aimed the unit at my electric fan and we noticed cooler air bouncing back at a greater reach (but don't quote me on this one!)

Good, fair priced cooler. Easy to use and very silent if you use it at night.
