Product Description
Unlike a fan that blows hot air, the HAC-100S air cooler cools personal air space significantly more than a regular fan, using about the same amount of power as a light bulb. An air cooler is a cost effective alternative to more expensive portable air conditioners. Great for the home or office because they do not use utilize freon and CFC refrigerants. This Whynter air cooler also incorporates a sophisticated humidifier system that provides a controlled cool mist of healthy, natural humidification. The internal air purifying system activates the carbon filter to capture particulates and then use water to filter dust, pollen and pollutants, trap them in the honeycomb filter and then wash them away.

Customer Reviews
I bought this based on the other 2 user reviews, and now I'm convinced these were created by the manufacturer.
There's nothing positive I can say about this product, but as for the negatives...
- It has barely any effect on the room temperature when set to air-cooling mode.
- It's extremely loud and obnoxious. Seriously, it sounds just like an idling lawn mower.
- Emits a nasty, exhaust-like smell.
Save yourself the time and money, you really don't want this product at any price.
EDIT (6/10/11): My suspicions about the other 2 reviewers (Ken Manning, Dave Martin) at the time of my purchase can be confirmed by their reviewing and tagging history. Look for yourself- Both have only reviewed this product (with a raving positive review of course), and have tagged every Whynter product with an assortment of positive/descriptive adjectives. Ken Manning even went so far as to tag several competing products as "defective" and "not cold". Well, I know what brand NOT to trust now.
Whatever your weather situation, this does the trick. I've used almost all the functions and my favorite is the humidification function. Being extremely dry in the dessert, this has the ability to maintain a very very precise level of moisture in your immediate surrounding. I'm very impressed. Just make sure the units has an sufficient fill of water to draw on and you're set. The cooling function is great and so is the heating. Great price and fast shipping.
