10/7: This article has been updated to reflect stock availability changes as huge demand sees the units sell out in record time
Meaco’s brand new Cirro portable air conditioner is coming back in stock this week after unprecedented demand saw the range sell out in record time.
Despite only launching last month, the new Meaco Cirro range which includes six smart models across 12,000, 14,000 and 16,000 BTU sizes, has already sold out once, but some retailers are due to get more stock over the next few days. But with temperatures set to exceed 30°C again this week, and demand for the best portable air conditioners still high, it’s going to sell out fast.
Another huge draw of this particular range is that it operates at just 45dB, which is twice as quiet as Meaco’s previous range of portable air conditioners.

The cooling only 12,000 BTU version came back into stock on 8 July but has already sold out again. But all is not lost as I’ve listed where more stock is expected over the next few days.
While Meaco’s stock has sold out again, I’ve also spotted the Meaco Cirro range will be available at John Lewis from Tuesday 14 July.
Meaco has also announced that it’s expecting fresh stock of certain models to arrive with Currys and AO (where you can currently sign up for a stock alert) from around 10 July, but that it can’t be sure exactly when that new stock will be available on the retailer websites.
Once this stock is sold out, however, Meaco says it won’t be replenished again until late September (for the MeacoCool and Cirro Cooling and Heating models), and 2027 for the Cirro Cooling Only models. According to a video shared on Instagram by Meaco’s founder Chris Michael, despite ordering 40% more stock than in 2025, the heatwaves we’ve experienced in the UK so far in 2026 have seen stock fly off the shelves.
If you don’t manage to get your hands on one of the last remaining portable air conditioners, a misting fan like the Dreo TurboCool Misting Fan 765S (£199.99 and in stock at Amazon) is a good halfway house between a fan and a portable air conditioner.
