Excellent Product
The media could not be loaded. This review is for the Arctic Air Pure Chill 2.0 Evaporative Air Cooler by Ontel - Powerful, Quiet, Lightweight and Portable Space Cooler with Hydro-Chill Technology For Bedroom, Office, Living Room & More,Blue:People have a love/hate relationship with this evaporative cooler. As a retired 35 year career in both Residential and Commercial HVAC/R, I can tell you this is not an air-conditioner as most people would think. Please be smarter than that. Let me also clear up something else about air-conditioning. Air-Conditioners DO NOT make cold air. A/C's remove heat from the air passing over an evaporator coil. I'll stop here and keep it simple.Much like a Swamp Cooler, used in drier climate areas, a fan or blower creates an air stream. Then you have a mister or Piezo device adding water vapor droplets to the air stream. This causes the water molecules to change from a liquid state to a vapor state. This removes some heat from the air stream and blows it into the space. Remember we are now adding moisture to the air. So technically this device is also a personal Humidifier.With this device, the principal is the same but on a (personal) scale. What I mean is, it is not going to cool down a space. So again... this is a personal device that is meant to be pointed towards a person to receive the full effects of the device. Now to make this work a little better, I fill the container with ice cubes and then add water to top off. Don't worry about running out of water to soon. The ice will melt fast. What you are doing is just chilling the misting water down a bit, absorbing some more BTU's before it is dispersed into the air stream.Another thing that is helpful is to take the cartridge out, saturate it with water and freeze it. When you are ready, just drop the frozen cartridge into place, turn on the machine and enjoy.Modes of operation are:Fan - Three speed settings (Fan Blade) symbolCool - Two settings (Snowflake) symbolTurbo - A button for Highest Fan Setting (+)Light - A button for the LED Color changing lights, and to turn off the lights completelyOkay, Class dismissed.So here are the PRO's:It works as advertised to cool and humidify the air around (You).I like the size of it. Not too intrusive or overly small. Excellent design.It is easy to use and functions as designed.The power supply is included! It is a 120VAC to 12VDC and is very efficient at drawing only 8 to 10 Watts of power. An added bonus not mentioned in the "About this Item" is that you can use a 12VDC car adaptor to run this in your car without an inverter. Also you can plug a USB-C end to end into a cell phone battery bank and run your cooler. Works off any solar generator too.Great For Power Outages:The Price is excellent at this time.Okay, CON's:Subjective - Fan noise level. Remember you have three speeds and then the Turbo speed.Not going to lie to you... It can get loud on turbo and high. Slower speeds are much more tolerable.So for my recommendation, and for what it is, and its intended use, I give it five stars.I ain't kidding you, last night we lost power briefly. I quickly set this up to work off my solar generator with a USB-C. cable and it worked flawlessly.I highly recommend the Arctic Air Pure Chill 2.0

Not what its cracked up to be
I bought this to aid in cooling down an extremely small bedroom - cannot fit more than a queen sized bed and two nightstands in it, only to shimmy yourself around to get to the bathroom - because the summer heat in Arizona is cray cray. Loved that it would be delivered same day (Metropolitan area for the win!). Had this little baby in 2 hours or less - and immediately opened it to set it up in said bedroom. Instructions suggest cartridge to be frozen. Well, that was a bummer; looks like I had to wait (story of my life). I soaked the cartridge, according to directions, and placed into freezer. Everything was ready for prompt usage in the am.Next morning, I woke up, did my shimmy shimmy around the bottom of the bed, and in a blink of an eye, fed the cats and made my coffee. I took the cartridge out of the freezer and inserted it into my new Artic Air Godsend. Turned it on, and waited for the cool blast that would signal the end of hell itself....and waited....and waited......nothing. Sure, it was cool, sure there was a faint trickle of air escaping the vents, but nothing like advertised; I think I breathe harder walking to the front door. I thought, maybe it's just in the wrong place...after all, isn't it all about location location location? I placed the Artic Air so the air flow would be directed across the bed. And waited again (I think you can see a pattern emerging here). Still nothing. Then I remembered...Good Things Come To Those Who Wait.....I left the room, watched an episode of Enterprise (worse theme song ever! I WILL fight you on that) and returned with renewed hope. Nothing changed. I could see condensation forming on the vents so knew it had some temperature change but it definitely did not change the temperature in the room. I even thought it may have just needed a little help, after all, we get by with a little help from our friends, right? I placed a fan next to it, to give it a little more umphh, and STILL NOTHING!!!!! My heart sank, for the devil himself would be hard pressed to remain in this room during the day. In conclusion, this is not a buy I would recommend - save yourself the grief and buy a window AC unit. I know I am.

Hope this helps
I give three stars, only because I do love this little box! It's very nice to have a small AC sit next to you on a table when sitting in the couch. BUT the only downside fall i have to say about this unit is it leaks a little water when it pushes the air out.So don't set this unit on anything particleboard or it will ruin it.If can give advise to better this unit, to whom ever would like to buy it, I would look for a small drip tray to place under the unit to collect any water it puts out. That's what I'm going to do next to have better use of this unit😊 I'm sure you could even go to Walmart and look where they sell the dish drying racks stands for those without dishwashers. They should more in likely have trays there. Or check out the dollar store see what they got.Like i said I do love the little unit! I just need a drip tray!Hope this review helps people before buying!
