I purchased the Slant-Fin for C$147 plus taxes, from Canadian Tire for use in my 26.5 trailer. It was promoted as being a "Portable air-conditioner."

The [air-conditioned] store had one up and running as a demo and it seemed to be OK, so I bought one, took it home and set it up according to directions. This included re-filling the water store bottle, not once as suggested would be necessary, but twice. Then I ran it for a while with no noticeable difference in the room-temperature of the trailer, which had started out /- 80-degrees F.

After re-filling the water bottle again, with cold water from the fridge, I tried again. No luck.

This product is nothing more than a very expensive fan that moves the already too hot air around. It's a waste of money in my opinion.

After all the phoo-fer-ra, I packed emptied the water, wiped off the interior, allowed the filters to dry off, re-packed the unit and took it back for a refund.

On the Customer Service counter, there were three other similar boxes, and a man two spaces behind me in line had another one.

I hope these comments will be relayed to the manufacturer. In my opinion, the manufacturer uses false advertising.....


Please see remainder of my comments in the "Cons" section.
