DeLonghi PAC T110P 11,000-BTU Portable Air Conditioner with Integrated Dehumidifier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The packaging was damaged but UPS checked it out to make sure that the unit was not damaged before delivering.
I like the ease of moving it from one room to another. The casters roll smoothly. It cools a single room very quickly but is noisy.
The window insert could use some rework. It needs to be beefed up and perhaps some ribs to line it up with the window. It tends to pop out from under the window because the duct is so much heavier than the insert.

In addition to its 11,000-BTU cooling capacity, this sleek-looking portable air conditioner also functions as a 60-pint dehumidifier to help keep indoor air cool and comfortably dry. The independent dehumidifier contains a built-in pump system that directs condensed water up and out a window through an enclosed hose, so there's no cumbersome bucket to empty. Even more, the air conditioner helps purify the air thanks to its 3M Filtrete air filter, which contains specially charged fibers that attract and capture tiny microparticles of pollen and dust. The all-in-one air-treatment center ensures ease of use and efficiency thanks to several thoughtful design details. Its electronic control panel, with soft-touch keys and an LED display, makes it simple to select the room temperature and control all the functions, while the included LCD remote control allows for programming the unit without having to get up and walk across the room. The unit offers Boost, Sleep, and Smart fan modes, and its 24-hour programmable timer can be set to turn the unit on at a specific time--great for coming home to a cool room at the end of the day. Other highlights include an adjustable thermostat, motorized air-distribution louvers, an adjustable humidistat, quiet operation due to the high-efficiency compressor and components, and durable caster wheels and side handles for portability. Accessories include an extra-large professional caster kit and a window bracket and double exhaust hose for energy-saving operation. Designed and engineered in Italy, the 1500-watt air conditioner measures 16-1/7 by 19-1/2 by 37 inches. From the Manufacturer How Do Portable Air Conditioners Work?

This Evaporative Air Cooler, Humidifier, and Fan by Sunpentown is versatile, lightweight and economical way that blows moist cooler feeling air than the ambient temperature. The Cooler easily rolls from room to room for use anywhere in your house or office. This Air Cooler shoots a stream of air with oscillating louvers, to evenly distribute refreshing cool air. Can also be used as a fan or humidifier if temperature is not an issue. The remote control allows you to easily change settings. The Air Cooler works by endothermic reaction (a reaction that consumes heat), so this evaporative Air Cooler sucks air through a wick saturated with water. As the air flows through the wick, some of the water evaporates into the air, consuming the heat that was in the air. An air stream is then blown out the front of the unit that can feel up to 12°F cooler than the current room temperature! This is not an air conditioner and therefore uses much less energy. It is best to be used in the dry climate or an open space. Leave window/door open if temperature rise or humidity builds up in the room. Add as much ice as possible and set the unit right next to you for better effect.

SPT SF-608R Portable Evaporative Air Cooler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, this is NOT an air conditioner. If you expect your room to be freezing cold, this is not the product for you. It's a COOLER, and it does its job very well. It works by evaporating water. Try soaking a T-shirt, wringing it out, and putting it on wet to get the effect. It doesn't work very well in humid areas, but it works GREAT where the air is dry.
I'm in southern California, where the humidity varies pretty widely. I place the cooler six or eight feet from my chair, and on the hottest days I'm quite comfortable.
Benefits:
* it's about 1/5 the cost of an air conditioner
* operating expense is a fraction of the cost of air conditioning
* neat features! (timer, sleep function, etc.)
* remote control
Drawbacks:
* it's not freezing cold like air conditioning.

Versatile, lightweight, and economical, this evaporative air cooler easily rolls from room to room for use anywhere in the home or office. Unlike a fan that blows hot air and more energy efficient than an air conditioner, the appliance uses water to cool a personal space up to 12 degrees lower than the ambient temperature. The air cooler works by endothermic reaction (a reaction that consumes heat). The unit sucks air through a wick saturated with water; as the air flows through the wick, some of the water evaporates into the air, consuming the heat that was in the air. A cool air stream then gets blown out the front of the unit through oscillating louvers for even distribution.
The appliance can also be used as just a fan or a humidifier when temperature is not an issue. Easily change the settings with the included remote control. The unit provides an air flow of 23 feet per second, a water-consumption rate of 0.6 to 0.7 liters per hour, and a 10-liter water-tank capacity. Other details include a nylon and photocatalystic filter, three air speeds, a sleep mode, and a timer that can be set from a half hour to seven-and-a-half hours. Though perfect for use in dry climates, please note that the appliance does not work very effectively in areas with high humidity since it utilizes water to cool. The 60-watt air cooler measures 12 by 16 by 25 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

SPT SF-610 Portable Evaporative Air Cooler with Ionizer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There are so many things wrong with this unit that I'm surprised I've managed to remember them all. Some other reviewers have touched base on them already, but here are the details:
* You put water and/or ice in the top of the unit; you cannot put water where the ice is and vice-versa. The area where you pour water into is about 3x2 inches in size (yes, really!), while the area for ice is about 7x3 inches. You literally need a funnel or a small plastic tube to fill the unit up with water (see below). But it gets worse...
* Easily the biggest flaw: the water/melted ice goes down a tube and literally into the casing of the unit! There is no water tank, or centralized hold for liquids. The entire bottom of the unit is the "tank", if you can even call it that.
* The two cooling packs provided contain some sort of cheap coolant liquid inside of them -- they do cool quite well, but here's the problem: they're physically too large. The cooling packs are dropped into the bottom of the casing (where the water is), right into the water. They don't mount inside anywhere.
* The "door" for the cooling packs is too small for my hand (and I have small hands), which makes removing the cooling packs impossible. It took me a good 5 minutes using a pair of plastic pliers to grab a pack and remove it. The door is held shut with magnets, which is admittedly nice. But the door empties right into the water "tank", which means you might as well fill it up from the side and not the top! What were they thinking when they engineered this thing?!
* Water pump is a pump intended for aquariums. If you open up the back of the unit (which you have to do for water filter cleaning; see below), you can peek inside and see quite clearly printed on the pump "AQUARIUM PUMP". Most aquarium pumps I know are loud, not soft/quiet nor do they hum; and because the pump is screw-mounted to the bottom of the unit (which is plastic), I'm left thinking the entire unit must vibrate heavily when powered on. This makes you question the production quality of this item.
* Water refill line is recessed deep inside the unit due to how the plastic casing is molded; it's impossible to read, and it's incredibly important (see above) to not go above a certain fill line. If you go above the line, water will start to come out of the front of the unit, and the rear of the unit (bottom of where the air filter starts).
* The air/lint filter on the back is easily removable. However, to clean the water filter, you must remove 6 screws and proceed to wiggle/wobble plastic pieces until you pull the back of the unit out. Why screws? Why not some retention plastic, or a clip? Better yet, why not magnets like the ones used on the coolant door? You cannot remove it entirely, because attached to it (permanently) is a bright orange hose connected somewhere within the unit; it has no slack. You need 3-4 hands to do this job.
* The water filter itself is what looks to be nylon webbing, identical to what some people use in a clothes hamper. It's just some cheap mesh with some Velcro on it so you can remove it semi-easily.
* Manual states you must clean the water filter every 2 weeks. Yup, you get to disassemble the unit that often. Fun for the whole family?
* Much to my amusement, the drainage spout (if you need to drain the unit) is directly behind where the AC power cord is. Am I the only one who thinks this is a bad idea?
Should you avoid this product? Absolutely. I'm left wishing I could give this thing negative stars; seriously, SPT should be ashamed for engineering something like this. I realize it's somewhat inexpensive, but what you get for under a hundred US dollars isn't even worth it.

Relax in refreshing cool air in any room of your home or office. The SPT Evaporative Air Cooler rolls easily from room to room, shooting a stream of cool air using oscillating louvers that evenly distribute the air. It sucks air through a water-saturated wick. As the air flows through the wick, some water evaporates into the air, consuming the heat in the air. An air stream is then blown out the front of the unit and is considerably cooler than the room temperature. Since the 3-speed Air Cooler is not an air conditioner, it uses less energy. You can also use it as a humidifier or a fan and still get the ionic air purifier\'s cleaning benefits. Use the remote control to change settings. Best used in dry climates or open spaces. Leave the window or door open when humidity or temperature rises in the room. Add as much ice as possible, and set the unit near you for best effect. Runs very quietly. 10-liter water tank. 120 volts. 60 watts. 12 x 9.45 x 28.4 inches. 17 pounds. Limited 1-year warranty.
