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.

Just purchased this after seeing it on TV and still sweltering next to a normal fan. What the hell I thought even a little bit of a relief is better than what I have at the moment. Looked at JML and it is the same price but you have to pay postage, so onto amazon and it arrived an hour ago. Small unit, not the sturdiest of construction, but what it is, is a fan with a filter in front of it, which is removed, made wet or better still put wet in the freezer, the lid lifted and filled with cold water and the fan blows over the cold wet filter and the water keeps the filter wet. The result cold air. This will not cool down a room, it is a personal cooler unit. I am currently sitting in a chair, with it 2 feet from me, it is 1400hr in 29c and the hairs are up on my arm from the cold air. I can feel it on my legs and I feel totally chilled and comfortable. It is a great relief. Not the quietest of fans. I have it on 2 at the moment and I am not sure whether I could sleep through it, but tonight will have to see. Really happy with it though from my first try. Be careful, if it is knocked over it won't stop the water soaking whatever it is on as the top is not secure or watertight.

This is a great item! Small and compact, lightweight and simple to use. Purchased due to very hot weather of late with more to come! I also like the fact it has a choice of air flow, water spray and lighting! It’s fab that the filter is super easy to remove and store in the freezer which, next day when I came to use it, gave a fab boost of freezing cold air to my living room. I added freezing cold water to the top tank and also a few ice cubes, then sat down and then altered the flow air via the air vent to point at me and my furry friend sat next to me 😁 Within seconds we were both cool and relaxed! I continued to replace the water and ice cubes throughout the day and evening, bliss! Even better I used it over night next to my bed and stayed cool all night 10/10👍

Positives: 1. Really does help you to feel cooler - seems to be more effective than some other devices; 2. Small, lightweight, easy to use; 3. Good price compared to some other similar products; 4. Provides a little humidity in hot dry environment Negatives: 1. Fan rather noisy/ intrusive; 2. Only cools your immediate surroundings when device/ air stream is pointed directly at you - makes no difference at all to the room temperature, or even to the temperature surrounding my desk! 3. You have to clean the small filter at least on weekly basis

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.

Chose this model as didn't. Want a USB . Its so easy to use, and I just keep a container nearby to top up with water when required which is surprisingly rare.. The three settings are excellent and I have literally had mine on for 48hours ,using the lower settings at night. The humming initially can be intense on the highest setting but in all honesty whatever the setting the noise soon fades and I rarely notice now. I'm going to buy all my family one of these and recommend them to everybody. I don't think I would have slept over the last 4 days without these little boxess. Much better than circular fans, as they take up so much less space and the water makes the air flow much cooler..

Spot on little contraption, wet the filter and add aste to the top and it blows out mist. Not extremely powerful but if youre sat about a meter away you can still feel it. Wish it was a bit bigger but does the job! The max setting is loud so when im streaming always turn it down by 1 so mic doesnt pick up on it, but off stream it hardly bothers me!

Love it. Works brilliantly. the noise is the same as a fan. You can have all the different settings. coloured lights are a great bonus. The Chillmax is wonderful. Would highly recommend. The weather has been so humid, this is brilliant on the ice setting. Usually have it on every night. Great for someone like me, who has night sweats. Even my husband loves it. My grumpy old man never likes anything. Unless he picks it of course.

This was useless Had to return it.
