[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fan is exactly what I’ve been missing! I wish I would have bought one years ago. Works great and built great!
I would recommend this to a friend!

It works like a chime

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought it for outdoor use in the yard. It ia quite heavy which ia great, so the strong wind we have here won't move it at all. During hot and dry days it makes a 3-5 degree difference. Because it runs on fan only, it’s very energy efficient as well.

The app is SO handy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is so nice that there is an app now. You can turn it on and off, or fan only. It also alerts you when it gets low on water.

Smarter- so you dont have to be.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One big problem with these type of outdoor coolers is that you need to turn the water off and let the fans run through the filters for 10 to 15 minutes before you turn the fan off. With these new smart models you don’t have to worry about that since you can just press the power button and it will turn the water flow off and keep running the fan for 15 minutes before it turns itself off
There is also an app and Wi-Fi connection, and I have used that, but I’ve also had to reset it before because it lost its Wi-Fi connection for some reason. Possibly because my Wi-Fi outside the house is not very good since my house is stucco.
These fans are made in America, and it is rare for a company to be able to stay in business in the USA when so many cheap knock off products come from overseas.

Apex 1200

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Must have tool for your shop. These Texas summers can be brutal and having the Portacool helps us get through the day. Having the Wi-Fi connectivity of the apex 1200 is handy for getting the cooling process started or stoped while you’re away. So far great machine and highly recommend to everyone.

Exceptional product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Apex 1200 is truly an engineering marvel. The combination of seamless high-tech with old school physics results in a cooling solution that will bring a smile to the owner. Simplicity begins with the onboard unit control buttons and extends to full control via the Portacool smartphone app. The unit is quiet and covers a wide area with ease...perfect for the residential or commercial use case. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
