It gets really hot in our S. Californian Apt (no air conditioner) and I bought this to help with that.. It does lower the air temperature by about 3-4 degrees with straight tap water. The only problem is it's not easy to drain this unit & it has to be drained or water changed every 2 days. The fan aspect works okay at blowing cool air at the spot it's set to. I recommend using this in conjunction with another fan like a Lasko and you will cool the room even more. That's how I use it and it works!

I wasn't sure about purchasing this unit, but now I'm very happy I did! After reading the reviews, I wasn't sure what to really expect but this unit is great to cool off to. As mentioned in other reviews, it is NOT an air conditioning unit, but it does cool you off by about 10 degrees. It does not provide very cold air, but for me it is just enough to keep me comfortable. The timer feature is great to fall asleep to and the swing feature is nice to keep the cool air circulating.

The evaporative air cooler worked exactly as it was advertised. Our climate is just too humid and when it is 100?? it really doesn't help much.
