CoolMate Portable Air Conditioner Results
After hearing that CoolMate Air Conditioner could cool things down quickly, make small spaces more comfortable and be a more energy efficient option than regular air conditioners, I decided to put to test the claims made by the portable Air Conditioner. Because it was small and promised to be easy to set up, it seemed like a good choice, especially for personal use.
Unfortunately, the experience was not good. The cooling was poor and the product was more a cheap product being sold off as a good air cooler than a good cooling system.
The primary drawback was that it could not cool a room much longer than it took for the room to cool down significantly. The differences in temperature in the room was small, although there was an effect of the airflow with very close proximity to the device. It worked not nearly as well as a portable air conditioner, as it was marketed. It was really more like a small fan, that did not really cool things, than a cooling device.
Based on my experience, I would not recommend this product because the claims they make for it are exaggerated and they do not deliver the goods! A second worry was the credibility of the ratings and reviews from the customers, many of them sounded like hype and even less sincere when tested personally. Prices were also not consistent with the lower prices available on sites like Amazon. This gave the impression that the product was too expensive for the performance that it provided.
One of the few positive aspects was the product design. The sleek design and contemporary look were impressive, and indicated a high quality portable device. It was fashionable, portable and lightweight. But in addition to the pretty looks, the performance did not live up to the company’s hype. The return was also frustrating, stressful, and more than anticipated to deal with, adding to the disappointment.
Verdict
The CoolMate Portable Air Conditioner is not as powerful and efficient as it claims. The result was very little and the general impression was not as good as the advertising had promised. I would not recommend the product particularly for those who think it can be used in place of a good air conditioner. New customers need to bring low expectations and know that in the real world, results may be much lower than advertised on the internet.
