5000 Sq. Ft Dehumidifiers for Home and Basement, 52 Pint/Day Dehumidifier with Drain Hose, 3 Modes, 24H Timer, Auto Defrost, Child Lock, for Bedroom, Garage, RV, Large Room, Humid Summer, Rainy Season

Just hooked up the dehumidifier today and it's already pulling moisture out of the bedroom where I put it. Easy setup. Quiet and I like the different lighting that indicates the moisture level at a glance.

I was looking for a replacement for my 25 year old Westinghouse Dehumidifier which started to just give in. I found this at a Black Friday deal and its a bit lighter and a bit smaller but it works really well. Has all the settings you need to either dry things out or set a level of humidity as I have with my other one on the other side of the basement. It has the option to plug in a drain hose or empty out the water bucket up front. I chose to hook it into my sump and again it works very well. Its very quiet and even has indicator lights showing you that it does work. Overall I am pleased with my purchase and hope that it does hold up to time and use.

Received product from Amazon in good condition. Only complaint is that the product requires it be shipped in the upright position. This is on the product packaging. But Amazon put it inside another box which did not display this requirement, so it was shipped laying on its side. However, this seems to have not effected the product. As a precaution I let it stand upright for a day before using. When considering the product, I was concerned the small 0.5-gallon water tank, but my intent was to connect it to my A/C condensate pump. So, I bought it based on the stated product spec's, size, efficiency and quietness. I first tested the product not connected to the pump so I could see it work and get a feel for how much humidity would be removed by the unit. I am using it in my basement, and I found it filled the tank fairly quickly. Thus, worked well. Once I was happy with that, I connected it to the condensate pump. This was easy with the supplied hose. It has been running now for a few days in this mode. I set the humidity level on the unit to 50%. I have a separate humidistat to monitor and can see the reduced humidity level. Overall, I am very happy with the unit, its quietness, ease of use, and general operation. Note that the user manual under continuous drainage is a bit confusing. It says to take the water tank out. Not sure why. I needed to reinsert the water tank for the unit to run, as I found out.

The below notes are after daily use for almost 1 month. I live in the north east US and Fall is approaching with lots of rain. Basement is decently insulated. Usability: Very easy to use. Simple buttons, simple screen, hard to mess up. Sound: On high setting it is noticeable but given this unit is rated for 5000sq. Ft. You can position this anywhere and not really notice the sound. For example my unit is about 20ft from the living area and it's more or less white noise you don't notice. Performance: Very impressed. My basement is a little under 1000sq. Ft. And within an hour of starting this up for the first time, humidity dropped to the set range without issue. Temperature: Machine is set to 45% Humidty on High fan. The air comming directly out of the top measures at ~31% humidity and ~85°F. This heat does not travel well in a large open area so as far as my basement temperature is concerned, it's always pleasantly cool. However Humidity Control: despite being rated for 5000sq. Ft. I found that it does not really bring the humidity down below 48% in an ~1000sq. Ft. Floor. Of course you wouldn't really want a LIVING space to be THAT dry but just a note. I keep it at 50-55% which the machine handles perfectly fine. Tank: If possible, arrange a drain set up using the provided hose so you don't have to keep emptying it. If you don't have that capability then you'll probably have to empty the tank frequently UNTIL humidity has equilibrated. Once it's evenened out, then emptying the tank is done a couple days apart. Overall Results: Very satisfied and would buy another if I ever needed to. Again, if your floor is under 1000sq. Ft. The flow rate of this 5000sq. Ft. Unit works great at keeping humidity consistently down to 50%, anything under that 50% is difficult to maintain unless you live in a dry environment.

I bought this dehumidifier due to the humidity in my home being so high with the winter season happening and having the heater on for so long. The item worked immediately, quickly lowering the humidity in the home. Overnight, the air was so much better and breathable again. The water collection and removal was very easy, as well as the setup only requiring it to be taken out of the box. The item is also a bit heavy, so it makes me not worried about the durability of it all. Would recommend.
