My wave 3 worked well at first but then it failed with code 31 problems. Contacted company and was offered 50% cash settlement as not able to repair, they didn’t even inspect it.
The unit is 11 months old and has only been used a handful of times, they would not honour the 2 year warranty.

My Ecoflow Wave 3 arrived on time. However, the cooling was not working from the start. I’ve been waiting for 2 or 3 weeks for a solution. As you know, it’s the middle of a heatwave atm. I’m so disappointed that they can’t get it right

Wave 3 and battery is ok, but more bulky and cumbersome with the ducting pipes than expected. Not as easy or as portable as made out to be. It is quite a mission getting the pipes fitted out through a window. What has been the most additional pain is the promo offer linked with purchase of the Wave 3 which was a EcoFlow Rapid Magnetic Power Bank which was worth having. However it would not charge up and was dead on arrival. There have been lots of reviews about this problem. The growing suspicion from those reviews is that potentially dead power banks were being sent out because they'd got surplus stock that had been lying around in storage too long so it was a good way of getting rid of them. The returns/refund process is so complicated and long winded that I am sure a lot of people give up and not bother getting a replacement. I stuck at it but in the end accepted the Wave 3 protective bag instead (which by the way took much too long to be authorised as an alternative and I am still waiting to receive the bag). Could do much better Ecoflow. Dread to think what it will be like if ever we have a problem with the Wave 3 itself.

Das Klimagerät macht genau was es soll - Top 😁

I bought this for my home office to save on electricity and only cool the one room in my home whilst the rest of the family are out. It works great and it is running on less than 300w per hour, outdoor temperature 28C indoor temperature 22C. The one big issue I have with ecoflow is I am unable to choose the carrier. Every product I have purchased from ecoflow their choice of carrier has failed to deliver to my door 100%.

The EcoFlow WAVE 3 is hands-down one of the most impressive portable air conditioners I’ve used. It delivers powerful cooling in a compact, easy‑to‑move design, and the fact that it can run completely wire‑free makes it a game‑changer for camping, vans, garden offices, and emergency home cooling.⭐ What I Loved
Exceptional cooling performance
It cools fast—noticeably faster than most portable units. EcoFlow’s claim of dropping temperatures within minutes actually holds up, making it perfect for small rooms, tents, and vehicles.

Portable and genuinely convenient
The size is compact, the handles are sturdy, and setup is simple. Whether I’m moving it around the house or taking it outdoors, it never feels like a hassle.

Battery or mains power flexibility
Being able to run it off EcoFlow batteries is a huge plus. No noisy generators, no cables everywhere—just clean, quiet cooling wherever you need it.

Smart app control
The app is intuitive and lets you adjust modes, schedule cooling, and monitor power usage remotely. It feels like a premium smart‑home device.

Heating included
The built‑in heat pump is surprisingly capable. It’s not just a summer gadget—it’s useful year‑round.

🔧 Performance & Noise
The WAVE 3 is noticeably quieter than many portable AC units. While you’ll still hear it running, the sound is more of a steady hum rather than the harsh mechanical noise typical of cheaper models. Cooling output is strong and consistent, even in warm outdoor conditions.

🎒 Ideal For
Camping and caravans

Garden offices or sheds

Bedrooms during heatwaves

Off‑grid setups

Anyone who wants cooling without bulky hoses or heavy units

✔️ Final Verdict
The EcoFlow WAVE 3 isn’t the cheapest portable AC on the market, but you absolutely get what you pay for: fast cooling, smart features, true portability, and year‑round usefulness. If you want a premium, reliable, and flexible cooling solution, this is one of the best options available today.

Got this for the Summer heat waves, A dual hose Air con is a must or you just create negative pressure inside which will draw hot air back into your room.Being a wifi device, was hoping for better Home Assistant integration, but being new it will probably take some time.Was delivered upside down, so let it stand for 24h just in case

So far, so good. The unit matches the description and performs as expected...no complaints so far.Regarding noise: when standing close to the evaporator side, there’s a faint high-pitched sound. I believe this is normal, as I’ve heard a similar noise from split units in the past when inspecting them up close.One minor issue: the plastic attachment connecting the exhaust from the condenser doesn’t seal perfectly. A small amount of warm air escapes from the right side, which could be improved with a tighter fit.Regarding energy consumption: you can view the total power usage (in watts) directly from the mobile app, which I find quite nice and useful. However, keep in mind the actual efficiency of the device: its SEER rating is 2.6, which is fairly average for a portable AC.(For comparison, some De’Longhi models on Amazon reach 3.1 SEER, though unfortunately they’re all single-hose units.) By contrast, split units typically exceed a SEER of 6, making them significantly more energy-efficient.I'm planning to update my review in 2-weeks with some videos :)

I love this unit. I did get an error code 12 when it arrived, but that seems to have been a blip and it's been working flawlessly.Here's my situation:I have a 13 m2 bedroom in the attic with a typical PVC casement window (they're a terrible fit for portable units as they open outward from a hinge). I can't get a split system as I do not have permission, but I also need to sleep comfortably during hot times. However, the UK market for effective AC units is dire. For example, having a dual-hose AC instead of a single hose one (which is what most of the UK market has) can boost efficiency massively by up to 40% with the same energy usage because it doesn't suck the air from the room that's being cooled out the window. The UK market desperately lacks these as the demand isn't there for it.When I saw this unit, I almost dismissed it because I thought it can't possibly be dual hose while being that small. But it is! Even better, you can even put this unit OUTSIDE, and run two hoses that circulate conditioned air to the unit through a window for even more efficiency and quiet. While I can't do that, it's a nice option if I want to carry it downstairs.Not only is it small, but it's quiet, well built, and efficient. I have yet to break 500w on max mode, but I can easily let this thing idle at 300w to maintain a comfortable and dry room temperature. Sleep mode uses even less, around 230w. This is a massive drop in energy consumption vs the typical cheap units that consume over a 1 kw and are relatively loud.I was not only surprised to see an efficient, dual hose, easy to carry unit being sold in the UK, but I was also surprised to receive one and it live up to my expectations! This is great, as being in the UK means most of the year is cool enough to not need this unit so I can put it somewhere out of the way super easily while not in use or carry it up and down the stairs without breaking a sweat.Here's some questions I had before I bought one that I know the answer to now:Q: How does it fare for a light sleeper?A: I'm a somewhat light sleeper. While it's definitely noticeable at night, it's tolerable on sleep mode. It's got a lower hum in addition to the white noise of the fan, and doesn't make many abrupt stop-and-start noises that can be really disruptive but you definitely hear it kick in, but it does do a decent job of ramping it up slowly. It can be disruptive to light sleepers, but for moderate to heavy sleepers this unit is no problem.Q: Is it easy to carry?A: The top of the unit where the vents are work as carry handles. If you're able bodied, you should be able to carry it with ease. Just make sure to not tip it or swing it around as you carry, or you may need to let the compressor rest upright for a while before turning it back on to prevent damaging it.Q: How well does the de-humidification work?A: I haven't yet used the dedicated dehumidifier mode but it really does dry the air. As of writing, the air outside had a relative humidity of 70% at 21C last night, which feels a couple of degrees hotter and is stickier. This unit dried the air in my room to 45% humidity which is perfect, and feels really comfortable. So, even if it's plausible to say the outdoor temperature is fine, UK weather is actually pretty humid most times! The built-in tank fills up very quickly within a couple of hours under these conditions, so I have the supplied drainage tube flow into a 1 gallon container (which must be positioned under the unit, and the end of the tube must not touch the bottom of the container). As I have this unit on a table, it's easy. And to empty it is as easy as tipping the contents of the container in the sink.Q: Can I work from home with this unit on?A: Most definitely! It's quiet enough to work from home with this unit on the background I think. I recommend running it in eco mode with a low fan setting, it's a great balance of power and noise. And, with noise suppression on with Teams or Slack, no one will hear it on the other end (which you probably have on without realizing anyway).Q: How long are the hoses?A: I haven't measured and it's hard to say as they can almost be pulled to any length, but if you plan to route them through the small corner window (as typical of PVC casement windows) you will need to prop it up on a table or something at least 1m tall. I had to get inventive with my unit.Q: How long is the power cable?A: It's actually pretty short at 1.5m. So I would recommend an extension cord be purchased with this unit if your nearest outlet it far away. I don't know how this will fare with camping though, as I do not plan to use this for camping.Q: Do I need an American adapter plug?A: No. I have seen some dual hose units in the UK have the American plug but this one thankfully is designed for UK customers!Q: Will it work for large rooms?A: Probably not. I think anything larger than 15 m2, and this unit might start to struggle to keep up. My 13m2 room is being cooled effectively by this uni...
