Pro Breeze 4-in-1 Air Cooler with 5 Litre Capacity, Remote Control, 3 Fan Speed, and LED Display. Powerful Evaporative Portable Air Cooler with Built-in 7 Hour Timer & Automatic Oscillation

I ordered this Pro Breeze 10L Portable Air Cooler as temperatures were reaching 30 degrees, it arrived next day and was easy to set up though the instruction manual could be better at explaining how to best use an air cooler which is best put by an open window to draw the warm air through and turning it into cold air via the cold water and fan at the front. This is on Pro Breeze’s own website. It seems cooler than my pedestal fans. I wanted to get the temperature down in my kitchen to stop the fridge freezer breaking down again as it did last year once temperatures get over 30 degrees (it’s an LG American fridge freezer) the air cooler definitely helped keep the temperature lower and under 30 degrees which gave me peace of mind as last year was a nightmare as we had lots of frozen food wasted and chilled food too as the only way to get the fridge freezer working again is to empty it and let it defrost, melting the built up ice at the back of the fridge which took a day or two. Keeping the temperature down with an air cooler seemed a better option this year. It comes with two small ice packs which really help keep the water colder, plus adding ice helps too. It’s 55W so only pennies to run (like any unheated fan). If you register your air cooler within 7 days of purchase Pro Breeze will extend your warranty to 2 years from 1 year too, just go to the standard registration. The 10L water container seems to last 2 days with added ice cubes without a problem. The air cooler is simple to use and feels well made, the wheels make it easy to move around. It’s not an air conditioning machine but it is better than just a fan, just draw the curtains and put the back of the air cooler near an open window. Ours is working well so far, I recommend it.

It does work very well. Dont expect it to cool the room for you. Your room has to be ventilated, it will give a nice breeze 3-5 degrees below ambient. In a closed room it will become warm and humid. Although it doesn't seem to cool the air very much, after 30 minutes or so it begins to feel quite cold and I have needed to turn the fan down or the water flow off, even on very hot days. It is very quiet on the low setting, ideal for the bedroom at night. Again you need a ventilated room, the lower the ambient humidity the better it will work. The water tank is big, it lasts more than a day often several days. Though if you leave water in it too long it will smell, easily remedied by emptying, cleaning the tank and pad and refilling, adding a drop of disinfectant, dettol or the like. Make sure it is completely dry inside before packing away for the winter. I have been looking for a replacement pad after 3 summers. The manufacturer said 'sorry you are out of warranty, we don't sell spare parts. Perhaps you could try Amazon for a suitable alternative '. No help there. I guess as far as they're concerned when the pad falls apart you can just buy a new machine. I hope the pad will last another 1 or 2 years then we have seen some natural fibre replacement possibilities through Google. Hopefully by then someone will be selling a cut to fit universal evaporative pad.

Much colder than I expected. Really easy to use. Easy to install. Very good value. Keeping us cool. Definitely recommend the 10 litre - just fill with water and it will completely transform the room

Good idea and works well, we've used it for a good month or more now, we have cleaned the water tank and filter regularly but has now started to smell! We bleached it and scrubbed into the corners where the little black bits of mould were, rinsed it thoroughly and reassembled. Worked OK again for about a day and smell returned, it seems once it gets old water in its hard to get rid of the smell and little black mouldy bits, also the blue filter is impossible to clean and showed signs of black mould, we scrubbed it as clean as we could but can't get the mould from the little nooks and crannies so I guess a new filter is required! We have now ordered some disinfectant to add to the water to see if that helps with the smelly mould problem! A decent product other than that!

This air cooler blows out really cold air even without adding water and ice. I use it for my babies room and it gets the temperature down really fast. She is quite a sweaty baby and is always hot especially when sleeping but with the cooler she is not sweaty at all.When we had a few days of really hot weather I loved into my living room and had to turn it off at one point because it made me cold.It is really easy to move around on the wheels and is very light. It doesn’t take up much room.I would say it is as loud as any fan you would buy. It is definitely worth the purchase
