Its 80 pounds and awkward so its not something you can just put in a room and be done, but this dehumidifier works. Chasing some humidity issues at the office causing doors to stick, I brought this up to run over the weekend and by the time Monday rolled around the doors had dried out and were no longer sticking in the jams.

This thing is extremely heavy, however, for an industrial unit it’s expected. This thing works wonders. Easy to use, difficult to lug around, when our laundry room flooded this was our saving grace and it worked great!

I bought 3 of these and put them in my indoor pool. It kept my room dry while the big unit on roof was being repaired they ran 3 weeks straight. The pool water is at 82 degrees and the spa 100 degrees and the room was average 60 degrees. Which will create tons of humidity. Awesome little units.

This is a heavy duty (and very heavy) dehumidified. You can vent the dehumidified air outside though I haven’t figured out exactly why or in what situation you’d want to do that, but it’s an option. Has handles so you can move it but like I said, it’s pretty heavy so be careful. Easy to ready display. Pretty loud but in a soothing white noise way. I have it draining into the floor drain. Pretty easy to figure out how to use. Feels very substantial. I’m confident and hopeful this will last quite a long time even with near continuous use.

At 80lbs in weight, this is no toy. Having gone through at least half a dozen 'normal' dehumidifiers over the last couple of years with little to no success I decided to up my game. This is exactly as described and pictured by the vendor. The humidity level in my basement went from 84% down to 35% in less than 2 hours. What a beast. You can literally watch the concrete start to change color as this works. You can se it drying out. I'm thinking that maybe when the weather breaks I may get the basement waterproofed but until then ... THIS WORKS. The display is easy to read and all the functions are easy to control. Comes with rubber feet which I highly recommend putting on. This is not a quiet unit and the feet help reduce some of that noise. There is also some minor assembly required for the duct. Easy to do. Also comes with a wrench and screws. Good deal and worth every penny. Really glad I got this.

Strong dehumidifier in small form able to keep up with 2k gals of fish tanks

We got this dehumidifier for our basement. Let me start by saying that this is very heavy so you might want to have help moving it. Our UPS guy was not thrilled. Just FYI. We had been running a few small dehumidifiers in our basement and we had a full-time job dumping each of the water trays every summer. When I saw this dehumidifier, I saw a much better way than what we have been doing. This one dehumidifier should be powerful enough to dehumidify our entire basement. It has more features than I had realized and more than I’ll ever use, but I’m not complaining about extra features. That in itself will save money over the multiple units we have been running. We don’t have it set up exactly like we want it to be at this time, but our plan is to hook it up to a pump so that the water can be pumped outside without us ever having to do anything with the excess water. My plan is to run the excess water into our flower bed so that will also alleviate the need to water, essentially knocking out two jobs that I have now. At present, we have it hooked up and running into a bucket underneath the machine and we still have to manually dump it, but right now that isn’t an issue because, being winter, there is very little moisture to contend with. We are still trying to decide on a permanent location because we need two free outlets, one for the dehumidifier and one for the pump, it needs to be a little out of the way due to the sound. It isn’t horrible for the size machine this is, but I want it in a place that is the farthest from occupied areas as I can get it. It also needs to be in a location that is accessible to running the tubing outside. I don’t think that I’ll use the control panel as a remote, but I think that is an absolutely awesome feature. Even though I’m not using it now doesn’t mean that I won’t have a need for it later, once I find its final home.

Does an amazing job Drawing moisture out! It is very heavy. So be aware of where you place it. Great gift idea for a new home! Wonderful value for the price!

A high-output dehumidifier that is perfect for use in commercial water damage repair projects. The working temperatures for this item are 60 degrees Fahrenheit and above. Hose connections can be installed to skip the water drain tank, but know that as there is no pump in the dehumidifier, gravity is your friend when it comes to getting the recovered water out of the house.

I bought this dehumidifier for my garage to keep my tools and cars from rusting. It was really easy to setup and works very well. I had to buy a 7\" piece of duct to be able to direct the air where I wanted. I also ran the drain hose down to the drain in my lower level (through the wall and floor). When running, and you set it to like 40% humidity, it actually will dehumidify down to 37% and then shut off. It then will fire back up at 40%. A few times a day, it goes into a \"defrosting\" mode which I was confused about for a few weeks. That's because the remote screen is basically icons and no words. So, there is a \"Bucket\" icon that starts to blink. I had thought that this meant that it was \"full\"! But how, I have a hose to a drain. I messed around with it a bit. I had thought it had a problem so I contacted their support on their website. They responded the next day with info that it was \"Defrosting\" and let it do it's cycle. I did and realized that it's working as designed. This unit does come with a wired remote. So, the screen does disconnect and it does come with a cord that's like 20 feet long. I ran the wire behind my drywall and mounted the \"remote\" touch control to the wall. It's real nice to have it at head level. This is a plus to have the remote. I do have this on a smart plug so if my garage door is open for more than 5 minutes, it kills power so I don't try and dehumidify the outside air. I've noticed that if it's off for a short while, it loses it's 40% setting and goes back up to it's 50% setting which is kinda annoying. Lost 1 star for this. It should remember what you have it set to no matter how long it is unplugged for. Our garage is heated to no less than 40 degrees F. It works fine down to that temp. I put a quick video on this review so you can see how its setup at our house in Minnesota. Would I buy this again? I think so. It's heavy duty and works great.
