Pros
- Honeycomb media and a 5.3 gal tank run for hours between refills in a mid size room
- Remote and oscillating louvers let you aim the airflow from across the room
- Ice compartment gives a little extra chill on very hot afternoons
Cons
- At 470 CFM it suits one room of about 280 sq ft, not a patio or garage
- No garden hose hookup, so it has to be filled by hand
- The Amazon listing advertises 745 CFM, well above the maker’s own 470 CFM rating
