Keeps my horses cool in the hot Florida summer
on February 27, 2026
Posted by: Liz D

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned a few Portacools but the Apex 500 is by far the best. We use it here in Florida to keep our older horse comfortable as he struggles in the heat. The Wifi enabled timer and low water notifications have made our lives so much easier. I highly recommend!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I noticed that the filter has a lot of hair on the outside of the filter.
I know it's from our dogs I wish there was a way to block it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great. Easy to set up and the wifi feature and app is a big plus. Cools down the area very quickly and is extremely quiet. Definitely would recommend and already have.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my Portacool in the garage during the summer months. It's easy to use and has wheels so I can drag it to where i'm working. The app has always worked well for me. No issues. Solid performer. Highly recommend!

Cooling a hot shop
on February 26, 2026
Posted by: Anonymous
from NC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unit works well and makes space bearable. It initially leaked water out the front but was sent a new sprayer that eliminated the issue. Unit appears to be built very well and should last for years. Love the WIFI ability to turn on before going into shop. App works great.
