4500 Sq.ft Energy Star Dehumidifier for Home Basement, 52 Pints Large Room Dehumidifier with Drain Hose & Water Tank, Intelligent Humidity Control, Auto Defrost, for Living Room - 2024 Update

Very good product and work well. Very quiet. I'm very satisfied.

So far so good this unit really pump some water out of the air! Reduce the humidity from 60 to 65% all the way down to 40 in a $1,700 ft² house in Florida! It's not quite summer yet hopefully it can keep up!

Box was definitely open and resealed, obviously a previous return item. I took a chance and opened the box in hopes that unit was okay. The housing was chipped so that's as far as I went re-boxed and requested a refund. One star because this unit should have never been sent or advertised as new.

Works very well.

We inherited a large basement humidifier when we moved into our home. This unit is substantially smaller in comparison to that one. I have been using both in our basement to conduct a comparison between the two units. When the humidity and temperatures start to rise I plan to move this unit up into the main living space to keep things more comfortable. I have been monitoring both humidity/temperature in out basement and electricity usage while testing this unit. Our basement is approximately 700 square feet and quite humid even in winter. The description for this unit states 4,500 square feet but I suspect that is a typo for cubic feet.I found power consumption for this unit to be moderate and I have included a picture of the energy label along with this review. Sound levels were also moderate and mostly confined to a hum and the sound of air from the fan. After running this unit in our basement continuously for less than a day I found the tank to be mostly full. During that time, it kept humidity levels in our basement under control but was slower than the larger unit (no surprises). This was impressive as the temperature was low (high 50s), making the unit have to work harder.The included hose was a simple plastic affair so if you're planning on using the drain hose permanently you may want to consider upgrading to something more durable eventually. One nice thing I found is losing power doesn't cause this unit to lose it's state when the power is restored, something that occurs with the other unit that we have. Requiring it to be started back up if we have a power outage. I look forward to using this during the warmer months to help the air conditioning with keeping us nice and comfortable.

I'm hesitant to celebrate too soon but so far it's working. My only gripe is the water tank is too small

With our faltering AC, we have constantly been having problems with humidity, especially in the Florida summer with rain pretty much every day (23.9in of rain just this past month). A few spots in the house were often unbearable and we got a little thermometer with humidity to keep an eye on it. I often work from home and my home office is one of them, usually sitting at 55%. Fired this up in my office and didn't take long before this had the humidity down to 38%, a BIG difference. Also, have a closet beside a bathroom that usually sits around 60%. Didn't take long for this to drop it to 33%. Super easy to use, runs quiet. The water collection tank is quick and easy to empty with no mess. This humidity absorbing canisters and other products like that may have their place, but this thing runs circles around them. I can see anyone who uses those products, the return on investment would be pretty quick. Highly recommend this for anyone who wants to shed some humidity.

Unfortunately, I’m not finding this unit to perform the way. I was hoping to. Limitations of temperature being in a 65° basement and the unit net doing its job to say the least is a bit frustrating.
