Airbreeze air cooler: what to check before you buy

Look for an identifiable manufacturer and model, a matching manual, tank and power specifications, warranty terms and a clear returns policy. Make sure the documentation relates to the exact listing.

The name alone does not confirm the cooling technology. Check the product documentation: evaporative coolers use water and need ventilation, while portable air conditioners normally discharge hot air through a hose.

Only if the exact model is evaporative. Confirm this in its manual and follow the stated filling and cleaning instructions; do not infer a water tank from a product title or image.

Confirm the legal seller, manufacturer contact details, warranty provider and returns address before purchase. Keep the listing and order confirmation so you can refer to the stated terms.
