(4 pack) Arctic Air® Ice Jet X3

This is my second Arctic Air product. Last year, we purchased one of the little tabletop cube models with the water reservoir. We were pleased with our purchase, and so this summer decided to buy from this brand again. We bought the Ice Jet because of less mess/less hassle: you don't have to worry about filling it with water. (I will say that our little cube Artic Air did stop pulling water from its reservoir at a proper pace, so the only way it really cools the air now with an evaporative function is if you freeze the filter. And it didn't take super long to "break" to this extent-- maybe 5 months. Then again, we did use it almost every day in the summer.) Now. As for the Artic Air. It is pretty mess free, stress free. It is a space-saver. It is economically priced. It's got a cute futuristic design. We are very happy with it and at this point, wouldn't hesitate to buy from the Arctic Air brand again. BUT! You need to know what you are getting. I am rating this based solely on what it is, not what some people wish it was. It will not cool your house or your whole apartment. If your room is large enough, it might not even cool the whole thing. We live in a studio apartment and have it going in a tends-toward-stuffy largish living room in the summer. We also have a dual sided fan in the window in that room, and often a small desktop fan going, too. That said, you can DEFINITELY tell the difference if you have the Ice Jet on. It's for sure more comfortable with it on. We consider it a big help on hot, muggy days. You do have to keep freezing the ice packs, because they unfreeze after a few hours, but there's three of them-- you can always have one or two left in the Ice Jet while you freeze the remaining ones, so that way you're never without any packs in the unit.

Since discovering this brand, I've really enjoyed all their products. I knew I had to give this Arctic Air Ice Jet air cooler a try. I live with 4 boys and a husband who is always hot wherever we go. We can have the most powerful fan on in the house and they are still hot. I loved how easy it was to set this Arctic Air Ice Jet air cooler. I charged it via the USB cord that it came with, took out 3 built in reusable ice packs (added ice boost powder packs with water, shake it and place it in the freezer until frozen (a couple of hours). Take 3 out and place them inside the Arctic Air Jet air cooler and there you have it a nice cooling air with a unique changing LED. Lightweight and portable. Can be used anywhere from a nightstand, in the living room, at the kitchen, outside by the pool, even camping! It worked for our family, and I love that the ice packs are reusable and convenient to have. Kids are very happy with this addition and I am happy it doesn't require major batteries, easy to recharge via USB.
