Product Description
Sunpentown Evaporative Air Cooler with Ionizer. Conveniently rolls from room to room to cool and purify the air! The Air Cooler does exactly what the name implies, though it's not an air conditioner. Here's how it works: The 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's in the air. Cooled down, that air is then blown out the front of the unit to offer you relief in warm, stuffy, uncomfortable spaces. But it doesn't stop there. It also gives you the air cleaning benefits of an ionic air purifier and humidifier to make your environment as comfortable and clean as you like it. Note: Works well in dry climates; not very effective in areas with high humidity as the unit utilizes water to cool. Clean and cool the air: Remote control; 10L water tank capacity; Nylon and photocatalytic filter; Three air speeds: H / M / L; Sleep mode; Timer: from 1/2-hour to 7 1/2-hour setting; Input voltage: 120V / 60Hz; Power consumption: 60W; Air flow: 23 ft per second. 16 x 25 x 12". 17 lbs.; Order yours today and beat the heat!

 Works as efficiently as any evaporative cooler would August 15, 2010
McKay (USA)
This unit is design for about a 12 X 12 foot room and can help a hot day be livable. Being able to add ice into the water trough and an ice pack into the top can lower the temperature 5-10 degrees (F). The only minor draw back is it increases humidity, my doctor would not call it a negative, which on an extremely hot day can make you feel sticky. This unit is really good in desert/low humidity geographic areas.
Working well so far... August 5, 2010

I received the cooler yesterday after work. Seems like a solidly build unit. As designed I found the netting for the evaporation process too limiting. So what you want to do is buy some swamp cooler foam, cut it to fit behind the net... then drill three quarter inch holes in the water pan. Works like a charm.

My husband and I currently live in Germany we live on the 3rd floor and Germans dont believe in central a/c. We have been here over 2 years now and during the summer it doesn't usually get very hot but this summer it is. I decided to buy this unit hoping it would cool down our apartment better than a few fans... I was sadly mistaken this unit is hardly cooler than a fan and unless you are sitting directly infront of it you wont feel anything this sad little thing puts out. It says for best results fill 2/3 water 1/3 ice which makes no difference it also has a cooling feture which makes no difference on or off. At night my husband and I sleep with 3 fans plus this thing and only a sheet if that on us and it is still almost to hot to sleep. Other than that this unit is pretty nice its easy to fill light weight looks good has a remote and it arrived in good time but thats not why you buy something like this so the cons out weight the pros. My opinion don't buy this save your money and buy regular fans or a more expensive one that may actually work or buy one you put in your window DO NOT buy this if you actually want COLD air or something that will cool an area larger than a few feet you will be wasting your money.

I bought this product to cool the bedroom in my home. I live in Germany and it is usually not very hot, but the last couple of weeks it has been. Well I recieved the cooler in the mail, and read the directions,plugged it in to use it around 1pm. I will be fair this is NOT a Air Conditioner, but by 3pm I had to put more Ice in the unit because it was blowing out only warm air and the water in the unit had warmed to the tempature of the room. By the time I was ready to go to bed(11pm)the room was still as warm as when I had first plugged it in. I ended up unplugging the unit and opening all the windows in my house, and it was much cooler.SPT SF-609 Portable Evaporative Air Cooler with Ionizer I am very disatisifed with this product.
 Works for me. June 19, 2010

I live in California in the Bay Area. Not much humidity and the weather is typically pretty mild but it does get pretty hot in the summer (90+ degrees). I received the unit on a particularly hot day recently and I ran out and grabbed a bag of ice because i wanted to test this things cooling capability. I set it up next to my computer desk and turned on the cool air function. I was sitting about 5 feet from it and in 5 minutes my arm was freezing cold. I was perfectly comfortable the whole day but if i moved from the fan at all the heat was unbearable. This thing does not cool a room but it will cool the area directly in front of it. Once it cooled down a bit I emptied the water (which was made very easy due to the lightness of the unit) into my bathroom sink and used it that night as a normal fan. Its pretty quiet and the fan is powerful. Ive heard these swamp coolers can generate a musty smell so I make sure to empty it of water when I'm done using the cool air function. I only fill it with water when its extremely hot because the fan works fine for me most days. It's a very nice unit and it's exactly what I was looking for. Better than a fan and more efficient that an air conditioner.
