    Works well, a little loud but overall very happy with the quality and performance. Easy to use and water bucket prevents spillage better than our old unit. Really appreciated low price at Best Buy. Beat local competitors by $40.

    Works Good ... But Noisy

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Researched several units and went with GE ... to start. This unit is a workhorse and pulls humidity out of the air. Live in a very humid environment and felt a difference during the first day. Unit has a 'buzz', similar to being outside next to a window AC unit. It either got louder or we grew less tolerant and ultimately decided it was too loud for our large living area. Reluctantly, returned it and bought the LG equivalent. LG is very good at reducing humidity as well but only sounds like a loud fan on the high setting. Overall, would use GE in a basement or garage, but not living area.

    A Warning.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I set the desired humidity to 70% and the room is kept at about 56%. When I set it to 65% the room humidity drops to below 45% and the machine is still running. If you are running this machine without an external humidity meter, you may be wasting electricity. BYT: I have two humidity meters and they closely agree. I have had the machine for less that two weeks. Normally, I would wait a couple months before writing a review, but this is a problem that many people might not catch and it is costing them money. Otherwise the machine seems OK--about average.
