We've had our campervan for four years and travel all over Australia. A fan just is enough on really hot humid nights. We always stay where there is 240volt power. We just bought the cool focus model for $629 on promotion from Mitre 10 retailer at Corinda in Brisbane, the only retailer in Queensland. Off we went to Noosa for a week in the last week of January. The unit sits behind our front seats facing directly at the middle of our made up bed about a metre away. The curtain that divides the cab sits between the two open flaps when the unit i...

2018 - Was melting in a house with no air conditioning. Did some research before buying the close comfort set up ..... Being off grid I admit I was sceptical even though the research regarding this set up was positive. . I live in South East Queensland with a summer season that would try the patience of the best . The close comfort cools like a little beauty. I have the igloo set up over my bed and I run it on 17degrees and sleep under a doona ....... I absolutely love it and that fact that it’s so economical on power usage means I can ru. It off grid .... Highly recommend it . Fabulous set up - Cheers Jen .

Received my Close Comfort Unit, plugged it in straight out of the box ( no assembly or complex instructions) and it was ready to go and working in seconds.
Works like a dream when sitting at my desk or lying in bed.
Don't know why I didn't buy one earlier

I expected a nice cold breeze instead it's a noisy useless air, warms up the room, I am a lot happier using my old fan. Misleading product, not delivering as per ads on radio and tv, not happy at all, disappointed, read the reviews, they were very appealing, not sure if mine is not working proper, but mine is very disappointing.
Did not have a chance to check it out prior to the 14 days return policy, it Was not used as it was cold.
Even on the coldest setting 17 is not satisfactory. Wasted $. I could not recommend this product.

This is a short review because we don't need to say much - this WORKS better than expected. I LOVE IT. Make sure you understand it cools a small area, not a whole room. I sit right beside it at my desk, my wife sites beside me and it cools us both. This is not an evaporative cooler, it is a real AC in a simple, economical form. I LOVE IT. I'm telling everyone about it. I'm sitting beside it right now, it's beautiful. I live on the Gold Coast, crazy hot and steamy right now here. I only need the lowest setting, it's quieter like this and still k...

As we like to caravan comfortably no matter what the weather we installed a diesel heater which didn't need mains power to work so free camping was possible. Now we needed to be able to sleep on hot nights, but how? We have been looking at portable airconditioning for quite some time. The ones out there were not real aircon, evaporating water run units are no good in humidity. We wanted something to use in our caravan. Our generator was not powerful enough to run the unit on the roof of the van. With this little beauty using only 300watts...

This is a great product and is exactly as described on their website. Much more practical than the portable air conditioner it replaced since I don't need to have all the windows and doors closed to use it or figure out how to vent it out an impractical window. The noise is good compared to a portable a/c and the fan noise is pretty quiet, although there's an intermittent rattling noise from the compressor which is mildly annoying. It works really well in my home office where it's just me so I can blast cold air at my desk or easily move it around the room.

Can’t express how pleased I am with this unit. I live in the northern rivers NSW so it’s hot and humid a good part of the year. I’m also off grid so I needed something that would work with my limited solar setup. I’m currently running the unit at the end of my bed at full power, 18 degrees and it’s only drawing 280 watts of power. My bed is a little oasis of cool and dry . I’ll recommend these to everyone!!

We purchased this to use while camping in the Kimberley. Both the product and the service from the company were simply fantastic. The original unit we ordered arrived a bit later than expected due to a hold up with the freight company, and we had to leave on our trip before it could get to us. Close Comfort were a real pleasure to deal with. They simply sent another one to us in the Kimberley so that we would have one for our trip. Communication with them was easy and they were more than happy to give us a refund if the units didn't get to us i...

Like: Compact; no need to have extra vent/hose to get hot air out of window. Good cool air. Does its job well. Low power consumption to run!
Don't like: A little noisy.
