CONS: 1. No easy way to empty the water tank. The machine does not drain it all the way. If you want to avoid mold you'll need to pick up the entire fan, tilt it upside down to empty it, or else use a whole bunch of paper towels. 2. Even with the ice pack, you have to sit VERY CLOSE to it to feel the cool mist. Any further then it's really just another tower fan. 3. Does not actually lower the temperature of the room. 4. If the tank is not re-inserted correctly, the return water tube could leak a lot of water onto the floor (happened twice to me). PRO: 1. It has a swivel and a timer, I guess.

Worked ok but not enough for the price for the first two weeks after that it stoped putting out the little mist that's supposed to help you stay cool and started leaking. Waste of money just buy a normal fan worth your money
