Evaporative Cooler 12in. Personal Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have some mixed feelings about this cooler. Sure, it works great and is well-made. I have a three car garage and it does a respectable job. Unfortunately, customer service at the manufacturer level is horrid.
I emailed AdobeAir (the manufacturer) and never received a response when the motor went bad. I needed new pads as well, and I was stuck. I called AdobeAir on the phone. Some impolite lady took a message, and I never heard back.
Getting parts for a product is just as important as the quality of the product itself. I am looking for another evaporative cooler for my garage and possibly one for the house, but it won't be a MasterCool or anything else from AdobeAir.
Good work folks. You really know how to lose a customer. I will tell everyone I know about your nonexistent service.

Soleus Air PH4-12R-01 12,000-BTU Evaporative Portable Air Conditioner with Heat Pump and Remote Control Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have never seen such a dumb electronic device for regulation of air.
I still don't understand how this thing can decide to not trigger the air con while it is needed. Then suddently it may decide to do it... and depending on how you turned it on/off, its behaviour will change.
Just to say that the computer regulator for heater/air con is just not working decently !
A big mistake to have acquired this Soleus device.
(even 1 star is too much)

For exceptional versatility and comfort throughout the year, this four-in-one portable appliance functions as an air conditioner, heater, fan, and dehumidifier. Use it as a 1350-watt air conditioner with 12,000 BTUs of cooling power for staying comfortable in the summer, then in the winter switch over to its 1160-watt heater mode, which uses Heat Pump technology to deliver 12,000 BTUs of heating power. The user-friendly electronic control panel makes it easy to select the mode of operation, the ideal room temperature from 61 to 88 degrees F, and the fan speed--low, medium, or high. A handy remote control comes included, which allows for changing the settings from across the room. The unit can also function as an evaporative dehumidifier, removing up to 60 pints of moisture from the air a day to help maintain ideal comfort levels. Its Auto mode provides added convenience where the unit operates as a heater when the room temperature falls below 68 degrees F, as a dehumidifier when the room temperature sits between 68 and 80 degrees F, and as an air conditioner when the room temperature reaches above 80 degrees F. Other highlights include Sleep mode, a 24-hour automatic on/off programmable timer, optional oscillation, and an easy-access permanent air filter. Best of all, its portable design means there's no need for permanent installation. Simply connect the exhaust hoses to an open window using the included window-exhaust kit. The unit's efficient self-evaporating technology means there's no need to continually drain the unit. In extremely humid conditions, however, condensation may collect in the built-in tank if it can't evaporate fast enough. The compressor will automatically shut-off if the tank reaches capacity, and a "full" indicator will alert users to the need for emptying the tank. Accessories include two exhaust hoses, two hose adapters, two window-kit adapters, a window kit with four sliding panels, two air intake and outlet covers, and an owner's manual. Ideal for the home or office as an air conditioner, heater, fan, and dehumidifier, the appliance measures 18-1/2 by 19 by 32-1/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 12,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner, Frost White (ARC-12SD) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Arrived with plastic cover cracked and taped together. The cover is very flimsy and difficult to align in replacement. Otherwise, I am pleased with performance. It is not too noisy and cools a former attached garage which has been converted into a home gym and office. Only gets 4 Stars because of cover problems. I have owned it for one month.

Ramsond Portable Air Conditioner 12000 BTU 1 Ton *FREE SHIPPING* Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was skeptical at first for a brand that was unknown to me. But since it was a heatwave this was the only one around that met all the specs that I needed and it was for use in my unusally hot basement. Well what a plesant surprise! This little baby cools off my 2000 sq ft basement in mintues. I strongly recomend this unit. One bonus for me was the shape and size of the portabel vent. It was perfect for the small basement windows of my home.

Royal Sovereign ARP-1400BLS Classically Designed 13500 BTU Portable Air Conditioner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I did not order this via amazon.com, I got it from another vendor who referred me to the manufacturer royal sovereign for service when the unit arrived with a defective hose.
I contacted the manufacturer and sent them the information they requested via fax. This took several tries but I finally got it through with a successful fax report.
Over a month went by and I did not receive the replacement hose, I tried to re-fax them and got rejected about 10 times in a row. My emails have not been returned.
I jury rigged the broken hose with a replacement dryer hose from the hardware store and the story continues. The unit itself will blow alot of cold air, but thats only when its working. It fills up with water far too often, and at one point I found the entire radiator unit completely caked in ice. To 'ice' the cake so to speak this thing is as loud as an 18 wheeler in your living room. You can hear it, annoyingly sometimes even feel it shudder, 2 rooms away. Finally I noticed an enormous hit on my electric bill as the unit is NOT energy star rated.
I would not recommend this to anyone, spend the 2 or 3 hundred extra and get a name brand unit - I am sure you will be happier.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 12,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner with Heater, Frost White (ARC-12SDH) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Whynter Eco-Friendly 12,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner with Heater, Frost White (ARC-12SDH)
We bought this back in September and took it out again recently for the heater function.
Nicely designed unit that has a clean modern look. The display is a concealed LCD band that is simple and understandable without an overload information and meaningless statistics. Although easy to roll around, be sure to get help when lifting up above a foot. The window kit was good quality and overall setup was considerably easy. Just hookup the hoses to the kit and fit the kit snugly into the window opening.
Cools wonderfully. I use it specifically in the baby's room and occasionally in the study. The dual hose design helps with the energy efficiency and overall cooling or heating out. Both rooms are about 18x18 and this unit has no problem cooling down a 95F room to a comfortable temp in less than 30 mins. I'm surprised that the cooling throughput of this unit is actually 20%-30% faster than another 14000 BTU that I have. Nothing scientific but even my wife notices the significant difference.
The heating option is not for heavy duty heating but it works perfectly as a spot heater when you don't want to crank central heat up too much.
To sum it up, this is a surprisingly efficient unit albeit slightly bulky but gives great bang for the buck.

EdgeStar 14,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner for Server Room Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My company recently bought this unit to replace the older AC unit we already had in our small server room, and the improvement was dramatic. Using the single hose configuration, it very easily keeps our server room (approximately 50 sq. feet) perfectly chilled to the proper temperature. The ease at which it is able to do so makes me certain that it would be just as effective in a much larger space, especially if one were to use the dual-hose configuration. Also noteworthy is that it is relatively quiet while running. With the door to the server room shut, the sound it produces is virtually unnoticeable from the offices we have just down the hall from it.
Set up took literally less than five minutes to complete. After unpacking it, all that was required was wheeling it into position, attaching the hose to the back, and plugging it in, and it was good to go. One minor caveat to note is that the small LCD display attached to the unit requires two AAA batteries to function. These are not included with this product, and the product page does not mention this.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 13,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner, Frost White (ARC-13W) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am so far extremely pleased with this air conditioner. It's very well designed and as an engineer, albeit industrial engineer, it's well built and is impressive in it's cooling ability. Very nice styling overall but surprisinly heavy given the size. I would give this top marks in all categories.

Sharp 13,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner with Remote CVPD13PX Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Is it quieter than a smilarly powered window unit that is 1/5 the price? Yes. Is it library quiet? Only when on fan mode only and at the lowest setting.
As an air conditioner operates, it dehumidifies the air. The water has to go somewhere. With a window unit, it drips down the side of the house to the ground. With this thing, it has to store it. Eventually, it fills and you have to drop what you're doing and empty it...what a mess. The drain is about 1 inch from the floor so you have to move it to the top of the stairs or something like that to drain it. Of course, with the one I have, the rubber stopper has a crack so it leaks. I first discovered this when there was a pool of water under the thing and puckered, ruined, wood floor under that.
This thing has a dryer-like hose that goes from the unit to a window. Barely touch it and it falls apart.
I wish I had the receipt. I would return it and get a cheaper, less pain in the ass, window unit.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner, Platinum (ARC-12S) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This portable A/C works great. I sincerely doubt that it will really cool a 450 sq ft area but it does a great job for my bedroom upstairs...which is all I was really concerned with. My bedroom measures 13' x 12' or 156 sq ft and it takes about an hour to get from 85° F to 69° F. Setting it up was a breeze. The only problem I had was with the window exhaust kit. The expandable PVC plastic window mount wasn't long enough to cover the entire height of my bedroom window...it's about 5 inches too short. I had to cover that space with a piece of plastic that I cut to fit and duct taped in place. One thing I don't like about this unit is the placement of the exhaust hose...it's in the back. Some units have it on the top of the unit so that you can place the unit almost flush against the wall. The back of my unit sticks out about a foot and a half from the wall which makes getting around it a slight pain in the rear...but hey, at least I'll be cool this summer :). Another con...it doesn't have oscilating louvers. The louvers are fixed and can't be adjusted up or down. There are lateral louvers behind the front grill that can be adjusted manually from side to side with a slider. Oh...and one more thing...it's pretty loud when the compressor is running. It takes some getting used to.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 13,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner, Platinum (ARC-13S) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've owned and used several portable air conditioners over the years and I'm truly surprised at the speed of innovation over the last several years. Now it has come to a point where portable units have moved beyond your functional clunky beige contraption to something that has been designed to subtly blend into the surroundings. After deciding between this and a Delonghi (yes, I've finally arrived now that I can afford high-end appliances!) I decided to go with the more compact unit that was at a more affordable price point. I've been using this for about a month now and have been completely satisfied with nearly all aspects. One little gripe that I have, is the absence of handles on the side, it definitely is heavy too. It does however churn out very very cold air, look extremely slick and is a snap to use. The remote control has a myriad of functions that I will eventually use one day but for now, I just need the icey relief from a hot spring day.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 5 in 1 Evaporative Air Cooler (HAC-100S) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Whynter Air Cooler/Heater/Humidifier
Timeframe: 2 months
My usage conditions: 51F to 78F, Humidity 60% to 80%
Functions used: Heater, evaporative air cooler, humidifier.
Design:
I selected this primarily for the design and color scheme. I did not want another white/beige appliance or some psychedelic blue or pink candy painted device. Conventionally shaped and subtle in overall appearance. Top marks.
Functionality: The Whynter air cooler is a misnomer, while it does a solid job cooling a 150square foot space, it does a whole lot more than cool. The heat was nice to have when the temperature dipped and the humidity control is very useful when dealing with dry air resulting from heater use. Intuitive and easy to control. The water tank at the base take a bit of jiggering to slide in and out but otherwise I do not have any issues with it. The filters built into the unit do provide some degree of purification. My room air purifier lasted about 30% longer before the indicator light came on. It is light weight and portable, but be careful when you move it with the water tank filled.
Quality:
Well built with softtouch controls. The remote control was responsive and fit nicely into the attached holster on the unit. Material is were primarily plastic. Easy to clean and maintain. Pre-filter is easily removed and cleaned. No fuss device.
Price:
Quite reasonable for all that it does. I would take this over 3 or 4 separate devices any day.
Overall:
One of my better purchases this year. top scores across the board.

Whynter 14,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner (ARC-14S) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this to supplement the window unit I've been using for years and ended up just completely replacing the window unit.
Very robotic design, it stands around 3ft tall and is in fact rather slim once you take it out of the packaging. Came with all the necessary accessories to get it running immediately. Hooking it up and putting the hot air vent where my window A/C used to be was extremely straightforward.
We usually power it up after my daughter returns from pre-school and set the temperature to around 74F. It usually shuts off at about 2am when the room and outside temps are nice and comfortable. The air is extremely cold around the unit and gets a good sized room down to a nice temp really fast. It seems very quiet during the day with all the other sounds and my daughter has slept like a baby ever since we got it. I does emit a low hum when it's cooling but otherwise the fan sound is not noticeable to me. You can turn it on high for a few minutes but after awhile, that's overkill. It does a great job on a low fan setting once the room is almost at the temp you want it at.
I really like the idea of not having to use central air like in our old apartment. I think over time the utility savings will easily cover the cost of the unit. The best part is I can bring it with us if we ever move.
It's worked excellently for a couple of weeks now and I may just end up getting another for our own room.

NewAir AC-12000E 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner With R410A Refrigerant Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have always used an evaporative cooler since I live in a low-humidity environment. It works really well unless it get over 96 and this year was especially warm so we decided to get an AC for the bedroom, the warmest room. I did lots of comparing, reviewing and trying to figure out exactly what would end up being the best value. I saw this product and it was something I hoped would work.
It came quickly. The company sends you the FedEx number so you can track it and know when to expect it. After opening it, I was glad we went portable instead of window unit. It looks pretty cool and isn't too huge. The thing for the exhaust in the window looks good when viewed from outside the house. The air comes out very cool and gives instant relief. It isn't loud. The remote is nice - I didn't think we would use but we do. Not having to empty the water is a handy feature also.
I am really happy with this AC. :)
