Dyson Cooler

Looking for opinions on the Dyson cooling fan or portable air cons in general. Want one that actually cools a room in summer. Have 500 to spend.

None of those coolers actually cool the room. For that you'd need a tube and a heat sink grill and fan outside. It will cost you a lot more than 500 that.

I have one of those Dyson "coolers" and can confirm though that in summer it makes 30 degrees feel like 22 to the skin. The mercury still shows 30, I can run this thing on full power and put the thermometer on it and it will still be 30. It just feels like less to the skin because there is a constant air flow hitting you.

You have to have it directed at you then at all times. What one have you?

I have a Dyson Purifier Cool Auto React Smart Air Purifier and Cooling Fan. it's the tall one, cools a 3x7 room just fine but you might do with a smaller one if you've got a smaller space.

On direction - Not really my experience, it slowly rotates around, you feel it extra when it's pointed at you but you still feel the cool when it isn't. You can if you want to stop it from rotating but generally it works better if you let it do it's thing.
