8 Air Coolers to Avoid: What Could Hold You Back in 2025

6. Honeywell 10LTC10PCE-Exceptionally Quiet but Weak on Airflow-($161)

If silence is your top priority, the Honeywell TC10PCE shines as the quietest cooler tested, running at a whisper-quiet 37 decibels on low. However, its airflow performance doesn’t quite match its 120W motor, delivering less cooling power than you might expect for the brand’s reputation. It’s a bit bulky compared to other tower coolers, making placement trickier, but it’s built to last with a large water tank and a solid carbon dust filter. For a peaceful bedroom atmosphere, it’s a safe bet, but if you want stronger airflow, you may want to look elsewhere.
