Dreo Evaporative Air Cooler, 40” Cooling Fans that Blow Cold Air, 80° Oscillating, Removable Water Tank, Ice Packs, Remote Control, 4 Speeds, 7H Timer, Swamp Cooler for Bedroom, White

Product works great, haven't tried the evaporated cooling just yet since it is still a little chilly in southern California. It has a strong airflow with 4 levels, remote is responsive where I am, and it is not very noisy.Customer service is also great, Carol helped me out once I entered a ticket for the set up and she was able to ship me the part that I was missing. It looked like I received a returned package when I ordered originally.I would recommend this company's product to other people

I put this in a room that is more or less baked all day long by the sun. I have several aqara temperature sensors throughout my house and that room is always 10+ degrees warmer in the summer than every other room in the house. Using the graph of the temperature from a 16 hour period from 8pm to noon the temperature dropped significantly and kept pace with the rest of the house on the rise through the morning and into the afternoon.The average temperature of the room over the past week was 81 degrees with the AC set at 72. For the whole day (after turning in the fan in that room) the average temperature was 70.4 degrees. (It’s a zoning problem in the house that is going to take like $8k to fix so a $150 fan was worth testing). I need more data to make a definitive conclusion of course but this first day is a promising datapoint, considering the previous day’s high temp was 98 degrees and today was 94 a near 11 degree difference in the room temperature is huge.There was a forecasted 4 degree difference with the high temp from yesterday and today, and I kept the AC at 72 degrees as I always have it. The only significant change in that room was this fan and we only used the water reservoir we’re going to run it for a full 7 days with water only and then have data to compare the significance with the ice packs installed.I have another room that isn’t as intense as the other room and I’m buying another for that room too.Very highly recommend so far!

Moved to a new apartment that doesn't have AC and has horrible cross ventilation, so the living area gets very hot and stuffy. I purchased this hoping it would cool down the space to make it more enjoyable. It definitely works and keeps the temperature down a few degrees.Keep in mind, it will not get anywhere near as cold as an A/C unit, nor does it claim to, but it certainly helps keep my living room cooler and more tolerable (about 300sf). Another note, it will make your room more humid because it uses water. I am going to pair it with a dehumidifier and will report back to see if there is a noticeable decrease in humidity, which should help with the overall comfort level.Lastly, I fill the tank with chilled water and ice cubes (I keep a pitcher of water in my refrigerator) and refill the tank with ice cubes throughout the day as needed. In my opinion, the ice does a better job at melting and keeping the water cold vs. the ice packs. The melted ice also helps keep the water level fuller for longer.Overall I'm happy with this purchase.

The fan, despite its high cost, does cool effectively. However, several issues detract from its overall usability:*will mold if not cleaned at least weekly**Health Hazard*1. **Water Retention Problem**: The fan doesn't fully deplete the water tank, leaving water at the bottom that must be manually poured out. This stagnant water can lead to mold growth, which poses a health risk as it can spread through the fan and into the air.2. **Refilling Issues**: The product is advertised as being easy to refill with a jug, but this is not advisable. Allowing water to sit at the bottom can cause it to become murky and yellow within days if not properly emptied and cleaned.3. **Cleaning Challenges**:- **Tank Cleaning**: Cleaning the tank is cumbersome as it requires detaching the filter each time. The tank has too many curves and hard-to-clean spots, making thorough cleaning difficult.- **Cooling Pad**: The cooling pad is impossible to clean effectively.4. **Odor Concerns**: There is a noticeable odor upon initial use and sometimes when refilling.In summary, while the fan cools well, its design flaws, cleaning difficulties, and potential health hazards significantly reduce its overall value and convenience.
