This is air cooler liao. I'm using one & if u pour cold water or add ice it will be more cool. Can get a decent one at $100+ (just search air cooler on shopee) but mostly for 1 person personal use & for small area only, can't cool the whole room like air con.
Wanting to hv this.
But on 2nd thought, maybe get air con service to clean the air con.
As strangely when off the air con, compressor fan still moving

IMHO.
Maybe just service and top-up gas.
Those add water and produce cool air, will generally not work as our humidity is high.

I have one from honeywell and been using for 8 yrs. it does cool down the room but not as gd as wall mounted aircon. Yes it’s noisy but it doesn’t affect me. Tot of changing but will be moving in a few yrs so just leave it

Anybody use portable air con?
Can recommend one good one?
I don’t recommend portable aircon , unless you can make airtight exhaust outside. Plus the noise is very high. Even window aircon is better than portable. Many second hand portable air con on sale in Carousell.

Portable air cooler don’t work well in Singapore coz of indoor humidity. It only feels nice in showcases in air conditioned malls. I tried many things also to escape hot and humid weather. Final resolution is escape to a South facing house or escape to shopping mall/ library.

Buy aircon also need to think about electricity bill. Can you afford? Will cost $2 a day. And also need to think about the monthly servicing fee like chemicals cleaning.
