These compact devices are easy to set up, move around, and deliver personal cooling right where you need it—without spiking your energy bill.
After testing and reviewing this year’s top models, one brand stood out above the rest: ChillWell. It earned our top spot thanks to its balance of cooling power, portability, and price. But it wasn’t the only impressive option. Whether you’re outfitting a home office, dorm room, or bedroom, we’ve ranked the five best mini portable ACs to help you stay comfortable all summer long.
Here are the Top 5 Portable, Energy-Efficient, and Effective Mini Portable Air Conditioners on the Market:
We Bought & Tested The Most Popular Portable AC Units, Here’s Why ChillWell is #1
Turn It On And You’re Just Minutes Away From A Cool & Comfortable Room
ChillWell quickly rose to the top during our testing. We knew that ChillWell was relatively new to the market and that they used patented technology from a group of experienced technical engineers. What we didn’t realize until we had been testing different units for a few days is how supreme this technology was going to be. It blew us away (pun intended).
ChillWell cooled down our test room in 30 seconds. It was easy to set-up and very energy efficient. There are four different modes 1. Low 2. Medium 3. High 4. Turbo. We found ourselves using the cool and chill modes the most as the unit was so efficient, we never needed to crank it up.
ChillWell got extremely high ratings in the cooling category during our reviews, but it was also a stand-out in our other criteria too!
- Low cost
- No Maintenance
- Suitable for home, office, car – you can even take it camping!
- Energy Efficient
- Super quiet
- Great Battery Life (lasted 8 hours on low and over 3 hours on max)
- Lightweight and fully portable
- Uses smart filter technology to clean the air while it cools (gets rid of allergens and dust particles)
If you’re sick of the cost, bulkiness, and ineffectiveness of traditional AC units, consider a portable AC unit. These units are disrupting a $135 billion dollar industry and the technology in them is continuing to impress. ChillWell sold 50,000 units by February, before most states have hit T-shirt weather.
The ChillWell is really a great and impressive device. It will be your favorite item this summer, guaranteed!
