Enjoy natural air conditioning with this NewAir portable cooler. Its 1000-cfm oscillation power chills up to 300 sq. ft., and the lightweight design with smooth-rolling casters lets you position it anywhere in the house. This red NewAir portable cooler uses eco-friendly evaporation for lower power consumption, and the 5.3-gal. tank requires fewer refills.

I understand that Evap coolers use water to cool the air a few degrees. They do not have the same level of cooling as air conditioners. I felt this unit provided a little cooling if you are in front of it but the ambient temp in the room changed very little. I felt it should do better so while it was running I checked the back to see if water was dripping down the wet / evap pad. Only half the pad was getting wet. Half of the nipples were not dripping. If I tilted the cooler they would start dripping. This tells me the pump is not pumping the volume of water needed for all water nipples wold be dripping water. I confirmed they were not blocked. I will return in the morning...kind of disappointed. Will look into a different product

The Newair 2-in-1 Evaporative Cooler (Swamp Cooler) and Fan is an efficient air conditioning alternative for arid climates. Add water to the oversized 21-quart tank to use it as an evaporative cooler, or use the oscillating fan alone to quickly cool up to 300 square feet of living space. This evaporative cooler packs a punch with a 1000-CFM fan that cools every corner of a medium-sized room.

Terrible, cheap, emits humidity
By AndreaL
This unit was very cheaply made , extremely hard to fill up with water and emitted so much humidity and heat into the air and actually heated up the bedroom

note the type of cooler this is..."Evaporative." Of course it puts out humidity, silly to say otherwise. You need to have good ventilation in your room so the humidity will not impact the cooling effect.
