Evaporative Cooler, VAGKRI 3000CFM Evaporative Air Cooler, 120°Oscillation Swamp Cooler with Remote Control, 24H Timer, 3 Wind Speeds for Outdoor Indoor Use,12 Gallon

I figured I'd wait a few days to publish a review when I got to use all of the features. Really good swamp cooler. I use it in our main area (living room, dining room, kitchen) it's not hooked up to a continuous feed. Comes with 2 ice packs. I bought another 4 pack just in case. Works great! Definitely works better with ice pack. Thinking about another one for the other side of the house.

Very easy to set up. It’s a right out of the box plug and play. It holds 6 gallons of water and you fill it manually by opening the top fold open door and pour the water into the small square chamber and is has a drainage hole covered by a black circle, don’t remove the black cover water will drain, since it is raised off the bottom. Make sure you level it so the water drains evenly to all filters. Leave it on low speed until all pads get saturated. We use it in North Texas on our back deck and it is 93 degrees and fells like 100 with the humidity and with this machine going on low it feels like 80 for my wife and me.

Good little swamp cooler works as expected to work, seems to put out the CFM it claims. seen negative reviews about this and others if you are new to swamp coolers these work by pulling air across water-soaked pads; The best i ever seen a swamp cooler do is 20 degrees lower than outside temp.These will add water to the air to help cooling these do not work in high humid areas because of this. recommend using the hose option as fast as possible as it keeps the water level lower, and sense these cool the water with how they work and then store a few gallons of water the lower the water level the better as these is less water warming up while sitting and the hose will trickle water as needed versus adding gallons at a time.DO NOT EXPECT AIR CONDITIONING RESULTS FROM A SWAMP COOLER

This does not cool at all. It is basically like just having a high powered fan. When your house is hot & the A/C isn’t working, it just blows hot air. I have a high powered fan, and there is zero difference except I have to keep adding water to this & it doesn’t make a difference. The “ice packs” are warm the second you take them out of the freezer. My normal ice packs stay much colder than the ones that come with this so-called “cooler”.

Works really well. I've had it for a couple of summers and ir really makes a difference in my hot garage.

I have to say that I am really disappointed in this product. According to most of the reviews I read, all were positive and mentioned how the evaporator cooler was cooling for them. I bought this product to replace a box fan I had in my garage for my two dogs that can come and go through a pet door. Summer is here and the garage is hot now and the fan wasn’t cutting it. So I ordered the evaporator cooler in hopes it would make the garage a little more cooler for my dogs, but it did not happen. The box fan that I replaced (which is going back in the garage ) blew more air and the air actually felt cooler. The ice blocks made no difference as well as I can judge. The product is well made, but doesn’t live up to the hype in my opinion. To me it is just a high priced fan and very disappointing performance. I will probably buy a small ac unit for the garage. If anything changes I will do an update, but it doesn’t look promising.

I’ve had this cooler for over a year now and it’s still running great! Had to reach out to their customer service to replace a plug that I lost and they were super helpful.

The product is really quite. I purchased one to try out in my shop for my employees to see how they liked it. The unit definitely cools the air. In the humid southern climate (South of Atlanta) it did cool the air and was better than a fan blowing hot air, the cooler air did make a difference. Employee put an ice pack in the top of the unit and changed it out at lunch. Now speaking of the ice packs. They are worthless as far as quality goes. People in other reviews complained about it and I didn't think to much about it. However, after purchasing a total of 3 of these units within 3 days of each other every single ice pack for all three units has busted in the freezer after the 3rd or 4th time being froze. I am going to call the MFG and see what they say about it. I have other ice packs that I can use and will keep all 3 units.. But the reviews about the ice packs (they come with 2 each). (I got a total of 6 ice packs, and all but one has bust). all of them busted at different locations.
