I am so impressed with this portable cooler! We have a two-story home in Northern California and we love how this product cools our upstairs without having to run our AC unit. I would highly recommend this cooler.

Amazing Cooling Unit!
on July 13, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
from Arizona USA
We Recently Bought this cooling unit Because the House we recently bought doesn't have a big enough air conditioning unit for the size of house, It was constantly getting pretty hot in the office so we bought one of these portable Air conditioning units and couldn't be more happier with it, It really gets cold and we ended up not having to run it for long periods of time because it brings the room temp down nice and fast!! I Highly recommend This Unit if your needing comfort from the Heat!! Will buy again HANDS DOWN!!

Great unit for a large room
on June 24, 2020

We really enjoy this unit, in one of our bedrooms the central air doesn’t do a great job due to the layout of the house. We installed this in the bedroom and it’s super cool and easy to sleep. Night and day difference. The settings are powerful and moving it to high will freeze you out!

My First Evaporative Cooler Experience
on July 29, 2020
Posted by: Touring_Midwest (Drew)
from Albert Lea, MN
This is my first Evaporative Cooler, I decided to use it in my garage and see how it works. My garage is attached to my house but not central air cooled like the rest of the home. and in the summer months it gets pretty uncomfortable when I am out here trying to wrench on my Road Glide or some other project I have going on, a fan will help some but only to get air moving around. First off this thing is a Beast so you will need a good amount of space for it, that being said it is built to cool a pretty large area so it isn't a complaint... its more of an observation. the unit looks nice and It cools my space down a couple of degrees in a very short amount of time and keeps the air moving nicely throughout. I love the fact that it has an actuator to move the air side to side. if its blowing directly towards me its pretty dang cold air so I am able to take a nice little break and get back to work. I have not yet tried adding ice to it like the instructions suggest that you can but I think that would be an awesome option for a hot summer day outdoor get together like a Grill out or maybe a graduation party or something like that. The only issue is that I live in Minnesota and here the summers get pretty HUMID, these sorts of units use water to cool which also puts moisture in the air while its cooling your space so some days if its been running a-lot everything will get very damp, thats not a huge issue for my garage but its something to consider depending on where you are going to use it. over all I am pretty happy with it and I am looking forward to trying it out in an outdoor setting...Perhaps this weekend when we have a get together with the neighbors.

The Mother of All Portable Evaporative Coolers
on August 4, 2020
Posted by: GeekDadKen
from California
What Is the Frigidaire Indoor and Outdoor Evaporative Cooler, 650 sq. ft.?
What it's not is an air conditioner. What it is, is a massive fan that blows air across water as it drips down a honeycomb surface so that the evaporation causes the air to cool as it wafts into your rooms. It won't turn your living room into an icebox, but it will cut 10-15 degrees off the thermometer on hot days.
What’s in the Box?
One Frigidaire Indoor and Outdoor Evaporative Cooler, 650 sq. ft, a hose adapter, and the product manual.
Setup: Locate your cooler outside a door or window facing into your un-cooled house. Fill the reservoir with water (preferably cool water), and turn on the fan and cooling effects.
Use: There are three knobs: Cooling on/off, fan speed (off/L/M/H), and swing. You can turn the fan on to three levels of power, which are pretty potent. The cooling is where the water starts dripping down the honeycomb and adding the evaporative cooling effect. The swing means the fan blades oscillate left and right a bit to distribute the cooling air.
Output:
We have had other evaporative coolers before. This is the biggest and most powerful. It will take outdoor hot air, cool it by 10-15 degrees, and then blow it into your home with very satisfying effect.
What I like about the Frigidaire Indoor and Outdoor Evaporative Cooler, 650 sq. ft.:
It's massive and powerful. It delivers a huge volume of cooled air, and makes a massive difference on warm-to-hot days when we have no other A/C solution.
What could be better:
Filling the reservoir is not as easy/tidy as it could be. We don't use the adapter to attach a hose directly, so spraying water from a hose into the reservoir is not as simple as it could be.
The final verdict:
If you live in a dry region with hot days, and you either don't have air conditioning, or want to save a little money against what running A/C can cost, then this is the workhorse you need. It will fill a large room with cooler air quickly, and keep things comfortable for hours. Love this machine!
Note: we received a review unit for evaluation.
Disclosure: GeekDad received a sample of this item for review purposes.

Posted by: Following Keenan !
This portable fan cooler is built like a tank! I was so happy with this purchase. It cools way better than I thought. Weather I use it in my shop. Or on my deck for get together events. It performs beautifully. Only problem now is I need to get another one for my shop. Wife claimed the 1st one....

This can cool an area very quickly and efficiently
on August 31, 2020
Posted by: Little Helpers In Life
from Wyoming, MI
I received this, the first day that I had it my house was so hot. I decided to try it with ice and water. It cooled my house about 12 degrees in an hour and a half. My husband really wanted to try it in our garage where his man cave is at, as he had some work to do on a vehicle, and it was just entirely to hot. He has now taken over the product. He and I were just discussing last night that he may be using this well through out the winter, because it will add some humidity in the garage. We always tend to have a problem with it being dry while we use our wood stove. It is a large product, but works SO WELL! I highly recommend.
