Frigidaire - 30-Pint Dehumidifier - White

Replaced my 10 year old piece of junk dehumidifier after it flooded my brand new floor. I have a split level so the downstairs gets very humid in the summer. This runs much quieter than my old one, but you can still hear it a bit if you are in the other room. I set it to 40% humidity, so it pretty much runs constantly so far. It's been an extremely humid July/August/September. Electric bill is higher due to the constant running, but electric rates have sky-rocketed, so not really the fault of the dehumidifier. I like the style, weight, controls, etc. Bucket isn't awkward to remove and put back in. To sum up - it does the job WELL, and fairly quietly.

I needed a dehumidifier for the basement of my 2,800 square foot two story house. I read about this model and purchased it knowing it had an optional hose attachment I could use since I have a drain that goes to my sump pump area in my basement. I had the unit shipped to my house. Set up took about 5 mins mostly reading the directions and removing packinging material. I started by using the standard bucket that comes with the unit. This did fill quite quickly, easily being emptied once every six hours. After the first week, I installed the hose attachment. I cut about a 2.5 foot piece of extra hose I had and made a gentle grade from the hose output (left side when looking at the front of the unit) and emptying into my drain. I have the humidity set at 50. The unit works great, no drips from the hose connection, drains into my drain fine, gets the humidity to about 48 in the basement, shuts down the condenser, then if it stays there, shuts down the fan until the humidity goes above 50% or so. For the cost of this unit with the hose attachment it is great for my use. If you are going to use the bucket option, be ready to be emptying the bucket 2 times a day to keep the humidity down. I am very happy with my purchase.

This dehumidifier looks nice, is easy to setup and use, and is relatively quiet. A few things stopped me from giving it a 5. There is no place to put the plastic hose adapter if the internal bucket is used so there's a chance of it getting lost or misplaced. The timer is good for just one setup so I can't just have it run only at night without resetting the timer each day. Even though the fan is pretty quiet it would be nice to have an automated way for it to run just certain hours a day. I wish I had gotten a higher capacity version in order to reduce the humidy faster and potentially it wouldn't have to run as much.

My basement is finished but it gets a little musty during the warmer months. This unit runs quiet and looks nice and it keeps the humidity down to about 30% which is perfect. I let the water drip continuously into the sump pit so there is no maintenance, just turn it on in the spring and turn it off in the fall.

It is quiet, efficient, and looks like a rolling luggage bag a storm trooper would take on a trip to Orlando.

Does a great job for the upstairs of our 3 br apt where the humidity was really heavy. Being only a 30pt capacity the bucket was full roughly every other day. Which isn't a bad thing (for my family at least) as my sons are both Autism Spectrum so we made it part of the routine to empty the water. The filter is also really easy to clean too. Cleaning the bucket is a bit more difficult until you get the hang of how best to remove to clear plastic cover and IT DOES NEED TO BE CLEANED at least every 2 weeks (I wipe it out with a damp cloth weekly to prevent buildup, but that's a personal choice). It runs great, I set it to 55% and it was noticably less humid within an hour or so of turning it on. I highly recommend this product to those looking for something that is not highly expensive but that does what it's needed to do. Looking at a 50pt dehumidifier version of this for our basement.

We put this dehumidifier in a cistern that was converted into a storage area and and it started to smell of moisture. This little dehumidifier might be small but it takes the moisture right out of the air. I install a hose on it instead of filling the bucket and it drains real well. Installing the hose was easy.

I was looking for a small and efficient dehumidifier to use in the bathroom to quickly remove the steamy moisture after taking a shower. This Frigidaire 30 Pint was the perfect choice. The mirror no longer fogs up and the amount of water that it collects quickly is amazing. This little unit works great!
