- This little device is better than a fan. It shoots out cool air and uses less electricity than a standard fan. This video is an out of the box overview of the ChillWell model 2.0 cooling device. I am not getting paid for this video, just wanted to share my experience.

![❄️ 🥶 Chillwell Portable Air Conditioner review. Can the Chillwell Portable AC cool your room? [425]](/img/n.gif)
It was the fact that it went from 81° to 84° right next to the thermometer, while filled with ice water after freezing the filter for 1 hour. It told me all i need to know about this product .
I recently purchased this for less than $50 including shipping. It's not a replacement for an air conditioner, its an air cooler. My room in my basement is pretty big & this device cannot cool the room down, but when it's on my headboard & set up properly, it does cool me down on hot nights and I get better sleep. It has drawbacks. Advertised to cool a room, not likely unless it's a small room. It runs for 8 hours on low, I didn't get close to 5 on a full charge but during the day if I'm awake, I leave it plugged in. At night, I run it unplugged so it shuts off after time.
Thanks for the review Nica, I had been wondering if those things were worth it.
Now I know... 👍🏼 😉
If it did not work in CA there is no way it would work in the high humidity of Alabama.
Thanks for the comment! I always wondered if this worked and now we know it’s capabilities.
I know I'm late the screen. This coolers marketing was underhanded they say A/C, which everyone believes stand for air conditioner, but it doesn't stand for air cooler, unfortunately. Air Conditioner and Air Cooler are 2 different things. It's so sad that this could have been a game changer for so many people. Good review
Wow! You’re right! That does make a difference
Perhaps on a nightstand, end table, combined with a larger fan with a window open and curtains drawn it could be very useful. It won't cool off an e tire room though. Used properly it could be a nifty little device.

If you’re sitting directly in front of it you can feel it
@nica3427 ahahah, you are an angel dear, I will be following you for all of your product reviews ,you just saved me alot of unnecessary time and money, thanks 😊
@@nica3427ahahah, you are definitely an angel dear, I will definitely be checking out all of your product reviews, you just saved me alot of unnecessary time and money, you're so brutally honest 😂 I love it !!
I bought the Arctic Air last year and like the ChillWell, it's just a poorly designed evaporative cooler.
That said, it would work well in place of a standard 6 inch desk fan. Keep in mind they both use misters for cooling and if you don't use distilled water, they will clog up.
Good to know! Thank you!
ty for the honesty. you know as it heats up, people are flocking to be cool
This is just a micro swamp cooler that will only work as a personal cooler in a hot and arid (very very low humidity) climate.
I have a similar device made in the UK (Total Cool) that I have modified by creating an aluminum cooling cartridge in which I place a mixture of frozen brine slush (-6 degree F ) and dry ice (-109 degree F). Directing the cool air outlet directly at my face a few feet away, my modified micro swamp cooler cools sufficiently for me to fall asleep.
Once the cooling capacity has been expended and I wake up uncomfortable. I replace my diy cooling cartridge with a fresh one from an ice chest.
Hey mate you might want to be careful there:
Is dry ice safe or not?
Dry ice can be a very serious hazard in a small space that isn't well-ventilated. As dry ice melts, it turns into carbon dioxide gas. In a small space, this gas can build up. If enough carbon dioxide gas is present, a person can become unconscious, and in some cases, die.

This is a straight up scam. The advertising is virtually all lies. The ad I saw said it would cool a classroom in two minutes. Unbelievable! No, really, unbelievable. For most of the people who would consider buying this sort of thing $100 is big bucks. Yeah, they will give you your money back. But how about just selling us a product that works?
Put your thermometer in front of the cooler and show what the temp is of the air coming out of there. There is a lot of variables of cooling a room. Heat soak, size, humidity, insulation, drafts ext.
Buy a $15 box fan and put a bowl of ice cubes in front of it and you will get the exact same results, (probably better because of the larger fan) a very slightly cooled breeze until the ice melts in 5-10 minutes depending on how hot your room is.
@@Malkier67 LOL!!!!!! 😂
The devise is to cool any “closed” room, not the entire house as this demonstration was done in the kitchen.
Thanks for you efforts
I dont see how anyone could think this could match what AC can do. Its a situation where I dont view this as a scam. Its a simple device with a modest performance
I wish I would have seen this video before I bought pos
Awwww maaaaannnnn!!!
RETURN IT
To good to be true.
Not really better than a fan because you're adding humidity while not cooling. Thanks for the review, was curious if these are any good.
Ya I had to see for myself
@@nica3427 Did they provide you with return shipping and refund you?
They actually didn’t want the device back they let me keep the first one and sent me another one. Then they gave me a full refund I got to keep the second one too
@@nica3427 Glad you were able to get the refund and not have the hassle of returning them. I give them credit for doing that.
Very misleading of them as far as I am concerned. Glad they refunded you.
I saw one at a resale shop setting there with the other junk.
I wonder how many of these worthless machines have been sold vs how many have been returned.
And I'm guessing that many don't bother to return. Specially if you live in rural area/ no transportation.
Well, i bought this device, but not to cool a room. I highly doubt it can cool any room no matter how small. I just saw it as a good fan for if the power went out. It provides a cool mist once you use cold water. So it kinda feels like cool air blowing on you. Basically just for close up use.
Hope you get your money back! These people should be arrested for false advertising! A real shame they are ripping people off. Poor little old ladies! Hope their momma gets ripped off
They gave me another device to try. They didn’t want either back and they gave me a refund
How are you at 19 degrees humidity?
My house is 62% in Florida. 73 degrees in the house.
Absolute Junk! I spent over $230 for two of these useless devices. First off, you literally have to be inches away from it to benefit from it and even then it's only the part of your' body that is directly in front of the fan that is cooled. The rest of my body was pouring sweat while my face received slight benefits from not the air blowing but the water you are being sprayed with. It didn't cool the room which stayed sweltering. It doesn't hold a charge. Once it shows that it has charged, you have about 10 minutes of working time before it shuts off. You have to plug it into an electrical source to get any substantial operational time out of it. However, they only provide you with the USB cord and not the plug that you need to plug it into an electrical source. Also, you have to keep filling the reservoir with water which dries out in an hour to an hour and a half. So you have to keep refilling it. Because of this, If you think you can have it all night while you sleep, you are wrong. It runs out of water and you wake up to hot air blowing on you. Absolute waste of money. I am very unhappy!!! Scam!
Well said! Thank you for posting!
Surprise!!!
Good video thank you for posting
its not going to cool your entire room just you
Yes that’s how I see it too
