All in one cooler!
I love this product so much, i had to buy one for the whole family! Its a cooler, air purifyer, it osculates, and its on wheels!


A GREAT FAN
This is a great fan. The evaporative cooler function is kind of neat and does produce a breeze slightly cooler than it would be otherwise. However, if you're battling serious heat this just doesn't do much better than a really good fan. I had hoped this might work as well as a weak air conditioner. I hoped too much. Twice I poured a 10 LB bag of ice into the water tank and let it run in my apartment with the windows closed until all the ice had melted in about four hours. The affect was disappointing. On the up side, it's a great fan. It moves a lot of air. It has the oscillating direction feature. It has a remote control.


Cooler
se lo regale a mi mama y si le gusto ya que como esta enfermita pues ella decide si ponerle hielo o no al aire, y ella quedo muy satisfecha con el regalo.


Even works in the humid South
This unit has been perfect for my intended use.

My co-workers prefer to keep our office building a bit warmer than I am comfortable. I have set the Unistar Swamp Cooler in the door of my office, and it effectively keeps my office several degrees cooler than it would otherwise be. I wasn't sure when I bought it whether it would work in a humid region, and have been very happy that it does. Nor does it make the environment uncomfortable humid. I assume that if the primary central A/C went out, this thing wouldn't do much of anything, though, in South Carolina.

Also, the manual is a joy to read. Honestly, I've read it cover to cover at least three times. It is an excellent and humorous example of non-native translation. Example: "Attention: Any parts of the control panel should be forbidden to be stained with water." Well, it amuses me, anyhow. . .


great for the summer, but hard to maintain
pros:
- saves you in energy bills since it can cool the room instead of using the ac
- filters are washable
- the included remote gives you controls even in bed
- the 30 min interval timer feature is great specially when it gets too cold at night

cons:
- the ionizer feature is more of a display light than anything
- needs a weekly maintenance. water mineral builds up at the bottom, if you let it sit for more than a week, taking it out posts a problem.
- if you even find the time to actually clean the insides of the fan and and take out the dusts and water deposits, it would take a lot of patients since the machine wasn't designed for easy disassemble. (you'll need a thin long screw driver to take out some of the screws.)

bottom line:
machine is great as an alternative humidifier and room fan. It is a high maintenance machine make sure you clean it every week or two.
