Pros
- Slim tower shape fits beside a bed or desk
- Fill from the top or the bottom, so refills don’t mean lifting the tank
- Remote, 12 hour timer and four ice boxes included
Cons
- The 1.3 gal tank needs refilling every few hours on high
- Pad type isn’t published, so cooling depth is hard to judge
- Rated 60 dB, louder than a plain tower fan
