Pro Breeze® 10L Desiccant Dehumidifier with Timer, Air Filter, Continuous Drainage, Digital Control Panel - Ideal for Cold Temperatures in Damp Homes, Basements & Garages

We did our homework prior to purchasing this and consulted Which? where we learnt lots more about the validity and use of these devices. Glad we did as this is amazing!We use it in 'auto' mode set at 50% when our little humidity meter in our rooms shows about 70% humidity which is very rare as we now have economical heating sorted out as well.We now mainly use the dehumidifier for drying the washing and no longer use the tumble dryer. We do 2 loads of washing on the same day, each load on an extra 1200 spin in the machine. The washing is then put on airers in the spare bedroom (12' x 10') and the dehumidifier switched on as above. The washing is usually on the airers by about 11am and it is generally dry by about 6pm and ready to iron or air in the airing cupboard. The bedroom is heated by an electric radiator set at 17 degrees so not too warm - we couldn't find anywhere in the research whether there should be heating on as well though. We empty 3 litres of water from the the dehumidifier afterwards and save the water for watering the plants! (The water is not suitable for drinking). The unit switches off automatically when the water reservoir reaches 3 litres of water). There is no condensation in the bedroom at all during this time and the dehumidifier actually gives out heat too. We are pleased to say that the condensation in our home is now virtually non-existent but, on these exceptionally cold nights, it can be left switched on 'auto' in the bedrooms overnight if required. It is not loud enough to keep us awake and the slight hum is actually quite soothing. It is also economical to run being 660W on high power. There are convenient handles for transportation (we move it from upstairs to downstairs with relative ease). We were thinking of buying another of these units but just this one is so effective, we will wait a little longer to see if we need 2 units - we don't foresee that we do. Highly recommended if used properly.

This is a very well made and solid looking unit, the controls are clearly marked andeasy to use. The unit it's self is very effective, reduces the humidity very quickly.Set to auto reduces the sound level but takes longer to reach the desired level, Set to number 2 is much quicker, also if the power is switched off it will remember the settings so could be used with a timer. Overall a very effective and good quality unit.

As this was my first Dehumidifier I did a bit of research and as I live in a old stone two storey house with dampness and with colder temperatures i decided on the Desiccant version of Dehumidifier over the compressor version as it works better in lower temperatures.Here is my verdict after seven months of use all i can say it is one of the best purchases I've ever made.1: It works extremely well at removing moisture from the air in the house regardless of temperatures its very consistent and fills the three litre tank in a few hours.2: Its brilliant for drying clothes especially during the winter months or anytime when it isn't possible to dry them outside it will dry a laundry load over night (it use to take nearly take a week to dry them in the winter inside before I got the Dehumidifier)3: As well as dehumidifying it will warm a small bedroom quickly raising the temperature very quickly.4: Now i mostly use it in the kitchen area on for two hours a day and it keeps the humidity down as it was very damp in this area no more dampness on the walls or mouldy, or damp smell or food going damp.5: What I have found it is extremely consistent in the levels of moisture it removes regardless of tempertures at first i was gobsmacked at the amount of moisture it was removing so I'm emtying the three litre tank ever second or third evening but you can have it continuously drain with the supplied pipe if you wish into a sink or larger container.6: So if you have a older, colder house i would highly recommend this Desiccant Dehumidifier if your house is newer or warmer then the compressor version might suit your needs better as I believe it is more energy efficient.7: So the only negative is you can't run it on a timer as the machine has to be manually switched on but there is a timer switch which you can press to have it stop in 2, 4, 8 or 12 hour intervals after it stops it will run for couple of minutes to cool of so it is important to allow this to happen before plugging it out.8: I don't often write reviews but this product merited a review as I was very impressed with it.

I bought this after my Meaco DD8 failed on me.Aesthetics: The first thing I noticed is how sleek and compact the dehumidifier is. It is extremely light, even a seven-year old would be able to lift it.Power: This is quite powerful and the 3l tank was full after a few hours. There are only two settings; High and Low.Laundry: There is no laundry feature (perhaps a useless gimmick) but it does have a louvre that can be directed in different directions to assist drying and when using it on the high setting, it dries clothing very quickly.Noise: On low it is very quiet and almost unnoticeable. On high, it is similar to the noise of a small fan.Robustness: Unfortunately, after one day's usage, a small gap appeared on the right hand side of the water tank (see photo). I have no idea how this happened, perhaps due to using it on a hard, uneven, kitchen floor. It has not affected the performance of the unit in any way as of yet though.Ease of use: The water tank is slightly tricky to be replaced and must be perfectly aligned. When emptying the water tank, the remaining water can spill out if it is not perfectly aligned with the drainage hole.Features: A great feature is the handle on top making it easy to carry to other rooms. I don't know why all dehumidifier manufacturers would not include this feature.It does not have an ioniser (perhaps another gimmick) but the air naturally feels much cleaner.Warranty is extended to two years after registering on their website.Edit: Fairly annoyed that the price was reduced by £20 to £135 the week after I bought it!

I have black mould in my bathroom and bedroom and needed to try to get rid of it. Got this as part of my cunning plan and very glad I did - the humidity level is often 80% in my home. Its super easy to use and has been removing litres of water from my house every time I have switched it on! It is loud when in high power so only use that when I can close the door over while I am in another room. On low power it is much quieter. If I could make two changes one would be to put wheels on the bottom. The unit is fairly light when not full of water so can be moved about easily by most people but I use crutches because of severe arthritis so it can be tricky for me. The second would be to make the tank easier to empty. I find it hard to carry in one hand without spilling some - it has a carry handle but I am not steady when walking and slosh the water about. There are openings on the top and you poor it out from the top. These are not enough to put me off what has proven to be a highly effective dehumidifier. I like the timer function on it and it switches off automatically once the tank is full so I never worry that it is going to overflow. So glad I got it.

So I have had this for a week now. Today is 07.10.2020 and the weather has been averaging around 11C in the day and 7C at night. I live in a small 2 bed 1900s solid brick cottage with electric heating and without any extractor fans. To allow ventilation I have had to keep windows at least on a latch and with British climate the humidity outdoors has been sitting about 70-80%. My house has been pretty cold and with heating on low (to save bills) the house was sitting on 16C indoors with about 70% humidity.With this dehumidifier I have been able to keep all my windows closed and maintain 40% humidity (windows open only while showering or cooking with doors closed) and the heat output has heated my entire house to 23C - 24C. My main heating has been off all week and replaced with the heat from this dehumidifier. I now have an issue where I am too hot and have to turn the dehumidifier down to cool down a bit but sacrifice full dehumidifying benefits. Within a week I have saved money on heating and gone from walking around wrapped in slippers dressing gown and blankets to bare foot and in shorts!If you live in a small house and with windows closed you can expect this to provide some serious heat! Do not fear though because you can just turn the setting down to low and save energy. I would say this costs me about 9p an hour on full or 5p on low.So to conclude this has been revolutionary. I have replaced a total of 5.5kw electric heating battling windows on a latch heating my house at 16C and 70% humidity with a 0.68/0.35kw dehumidifier with closed windows.EXTRA: I highly recommend this to anyone with similar housing and if you do I also recommend an air purifier so you can ensure your air quality stays much cleaner to outside. Another fun fact that most people may already know but I have only become aware of is that the more humid the air obviously the more water but also the more it will cost to heat all those pints of unnecessary water in the air. So not only has this become a great humidity solution it has become a fantastic heating solution too.Hope this helps someone!

I wanted a dehumidifier but was so worried about the usage costs as in england at moment the energy costs are so high. I read that these type of dehumidifier cost more to run but I still went for this one.On testing the power it actually runs on less power than my tumble dryer. And 3 times less than my economy electric heater. I use it on low setting.Since using this I have actually limited the use of my heater as this gets rid of the moisture in the air which makes the room feel warmer. So it's saving me money.If I use my heater it's virtually for 5 minutes as since using the dehumidifier it heats the room so much quicker as well.The settings I love as it's so easy to set it up .Just 3 slight negative points. (1) When you are setting it up it is turned on so you getting the blown air in your face. It's a pity you cannot set it up with it on standby mode and simply press power on to then run it.(2) the water drawer can be bit awkward to push in. I'm always worried if I push to hard and I break it.(3) I wish it had some sort of handle . Or wheels. It's not actually heavy but it's just easier to move about if it had handle or even better with wheels.But this is really worth purchasing so go for it. 😀

I've been using this dehumidifier for only a short while but am very pleased with it. It's very efficient and is quiet. Not only is the high humidity soon dealt with, the air is fresher. The settings give you as many options as you need but are simple and straightforward. It has a neat, inconspicuous design and, when handled, feels well built. I don't mean it's heavy; it's not. As for the cost, I bought this make because its price and quality compared very well with the award-winning one I had been intending to buy but which cost considerably more for no good reason that I could see. This one comes with a standard guarantee of one year and that period is doubled to two years if you register your purchase with the manufacturer, which I've done. Because of the humidity problem throughout the house, I'm considering buying another of these later. If I do, I get 15% off. Nice. Don't see how I could've chosen better. Recommend.
