Summary: Portable air conditioner
Comment: I wasn't very happy with this product. It claimed to be a air conditioner but a regular fan would have worked better. Don't waist your money on this.

Summary: DESKTOP air conditioner
Comment: I'm on my third New York summer with my original pair of these, and I probably wouldn't have made it through my first without them. I work at home and have no A/C. Fans help only up to a point; on hot muggy days they only blow hot air around. These little *desktop* A/Cs actually cool you off on the hottest, muggiest days. They are not meant to cool rooms or truck cabs. They sit *on your desk* a foot away from you and exhale chilled air at you without blowing your papers around or making annoying noise. Extra water bottles are easy to find in the Rubbermaid section of your market--you only need to approximate the size--so you can chill a few for backup. I think the product is reasonably well constructed, though I'm also annoyed at the tiny screws on the battery cover. Mine have endured ungentle handling and still perform perfectly. I find that the batteries last a decent length of time, and are certainly cheaper than the electricity to run a real A/C. As an added bonus, you can aim them at miserably hot cats to cool them off without scaring them under the bed or out of the room.

Summary: Miserable waste of money
Comment: When you try to open the latch to put the D batteries in, you have no idea what kind of screwdriver to use. The screw holding the latch closed is ridiculously small. I called the company and they said to use the type of screwdriver you would use to repair eyeglasses. So I went out and bought one of those kits. Then when I tried the eyeglass screwdriver on that screw, it STILL did not work. Maybe other people have been able to get that screw out but I sure as h**l could not. And you can't run the stupid thing unless you can put the batteries in.
If I were you I would NOT buy this. It's junk.

Summary: you get what you pay for..........
Comment: The problem with cheap solutions is cheap results. I live in the desert and this wonderfully simple contraption consists of a small fan and a frozen water bottle. I find myself attaching the water bottle to a larger fan from a peice of string and doing nothing with the plastic encased toy fan. The freezable water bottle it comes with also leaks so............ If you want to pay a little amount of money for something you know is going to dissapoint you then by all means, go ahead!!!!

Summary: Sending it back
Comment: I bought this little fan because my car AC was not working well, and I thought that it would help keep me cool in this record breaking heat wave we had. Well, if I held it up to my face while driving, it created a slight breeze! There is absolutely not enough force to cool from a desk, or anywhere else, I even checked to make sure the batteries were fresh. This definitely is going back, and I will think twice before I order on-line again.

Desktop air conditioner keeps you cool while working, uses natural, frozen water instead of chemicals, quiet operation won't interfere with worker in next cubicle. Plastic, 10 1/ 2 x 13 x 5 1/ 2" with adjustable vent grill and on/off switch, requires two D batteries, not included. Has built in jack for your optionalAC adapter.
