White Cooler works well
on May 29, 2023
Posted by: Beverly
from Twentynine Palms
I bought this 2 yrs ago and I live in the desert where it gets real hot! I need a bit more cooling at night only in the bedroom and this item works great - if you need a smallish area cooled a bit more then the rest of your house you can't go wrong with this Newair !!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Replacement Filter
on May 19, 2023
Posted by: Trevor the Dissatisfied
from Mesa, AZ
Before you decide to purchase this fan, I challenge you to see how impossible it is to find a replacement filter. I have looked for hours to no avail. I will spend my money elsewhere in the future.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I recommend this product to anyone wanting to cool off
on May 15, 2023

from Undisclosed
Verified Purchase:Yes
This fan works pretty good on a humid day. The air is nice and cool. It could be a bit quieter but all in all I'm happy with my purchase and in would recommend this fan to anyone looking for something portable and not to too bulky to have in their home. On a very hot and humid day, I recommend having this fan set to high/cooler and use the freezer ice pack included. Also, place the new air near your body.

It Doesn't put a lot air flow!

poor air circulation and the cold water doesn't seem to help any at all. if you want a cool air breeze save your money and buy a AC unit.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Perfect in SoCal
on August 19, 2022
Posted by: KMFW
from Los Angeles, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the second model we’ve purchased over the years. Love the new updated design.
We live in SoCal and we prefer this NewAir evaporative cooler in our bedroom vs. a loud and large portable or window A/C that sucks up a ton of energy and creates more heat. The fan is super powerful on its own if you choose to not use the humidifier/cooler function or if it’s a particularly humid night. Hot tip: get yourself a second set of ice packs, so you always have cold ones to use the next night. We usually forget to put the used ones back in the freezer the next morning, so the second set is clutch.

New air works and the company cares about it's customers!
on August 15, 2022
Posted by: Don in Arizona
from Chandler AZ
I purchased this product to help with the Arizona summers and the high cost of air conditioning. I use it all day in my home office and all night in the bedroom. When it developed an electrical problem the help desk was responsive and helped me find the solution to my problem. The cool air flow and moisture add so much comfort to our home and the ease of use in filling and moving the unit are great!
I would recommend this to a friend!
