I recently got one of these &amp; like it overall very much. Are the 2 cut outs on the side for air circulation? I kind of wish they weren't there.

The cut outs are put on the back of the leg. They go there so they don't bunch up when walking,excercise, ect.

As noted by others, the 'X' shaped bracing ensures the bottom is not completely open, but air flow should be excellent. And, by the way, you have a strange case.

Those are for the cut out. This is an absolutely world class sink, it even came with a towel for buffing!!!

Hello! Well, to be honest, some of the cutouts can be on the sharp side, but I do not keep tiny, hard to reach items inside either. Hope that helps! :) Andie

I do not know it's purpose, however I am confident it is part of the unit design/function.I would not remove it. It almost appears to be a filter for the unit fan. Again not sure.

I bought mine today 4/17/2014 and it has a drain hole. Is that a new design? Should it have a drain hole or did they forget to plug the hole on the bottom of the air conditioner?

Mine has the cut out. As far as I know that's the only one currently available.

Yes, there is a divider you can put in or leave out. When the weather is warmer we use the front for a bedroom and the back for storage, when it is cooler we use the back for a bedroom and the front for a "sitting" room. The reason is, the windows in the front are lower and therefore provide more air down low where our sleeping air mattress is. Enjoy!

Check vents at the back to be sure they aren't blocked. Have mine sitting on top of the quilt on my bed right now - vents aren't blocked so air flow isn't restricted.

Make sure the bag is clean and there are no obstrctions around the fan. Otherwise is most likely a control board problem and will need factory repair. I'm on my second one after first lasted 3 years. Decided cheaper to buy a new one than repair the old one.

I got the one with the n cut out. I have had it since christmas and it is holding up really well. I love it.

The fan is a puller / pulls air thru the cooler. If you create even a small box frame to sit between the fan and the cooler, you dramatically increase the cooling efficiency of this small cooler. The box should be sealed against the cooler and fan so it does not draw air from other than the cooler. Don't know why the guys at B&M; don't do that.

There is supposed to be a liner to help keep it warm. It is removable so during the warmer months it will help keep air flow going through the jacket.

i just purchased the sidewinder. it worked really well. one question.... little tiny air bubbles appear all around the seams of this thing. is that normal or is it leaking air? i would appreciate some opinions. thanks

The two side Vents are open, Being concerned that wouldn't be enough, I used a razor and easily cut a larger opening for the 'main' top vent which would probably be sufficient. However, I also measured and cut out holes in the back for my back Vents on the ATIV 700T. This was not as quite as easy, but not really difficult either. I'm satisfied that ventilation is as good as it would be with no case now. See my video review that show's the modifications.

confusing question but to answer your question it does provide cool air, the reason to put under/next to the AC is that it push the cold air farther into the room. I just clast mine through the ceiling and move it around until the current land where i sit.

It will slightly restrict the airflow just because it has parts sort of in the way, but air can easily flow past those parts. If you need to block airflow more thoroughly, you will need a separate mechanism to do this.
