We were sceptical, but went ahead and bought this dehumidifier. Our upstairs especially feels close and stuffy, and one bedroom feels damp. So, we put it upstairs in the hallway. It does put out warmish air, and we felt it was making it feel even closer upstairs. After reading the instructions about five times, we decided we would keep the machine and set it up downstairs. Voila! It is dehumidifying the whole house. The upstairs numbers are coming down into a comfortable range, and the heat is far less noticeable with the machine downstairs. It is actually clearing up the whole house. We have to empty the water about once a day at this point, but hopefully this will lessen. And yes, we keep it running the whole time. It is doing a great job.

This dehumidifier isn't quiet but it is just a background noise. It doesn't use much energy and hasn't really affected our energy bills. We've used it to dry smaller washing items instead of using the dryer (not great for jeans & king size bedding) and also to get rid of condensation. The water then goes in the water butt. For the price it's brilliant. There's a louvre to angle towards your washing and a timer which is really handy to leave it on when you've gone to bed.

I have found the Meaco Dehumidifier to be quiet in operation, efficient and light enough to be moved around from room to room using the carrying handle. It is a nice touch having a digital display of the humidity as you can tell at a glance how well the machine is operating. Emptying the water tank is easy and I would certainly have no problem with recommending this dehumidifier.

This dehumidifier was bought to reduce condensation and stop mould growth in my elderly parents-in-law's warm, cosy but over-insulated house. It was very simple to set to the required Relative Humidity, and then left to get on with the job. It has been running continuously for a couple of weeks now and seems effective, with my father-in-law emptying it every day when it gets full and automatically switches off. The LCD display tells you the current RH level so you can see the dehumidifier's effectiveness as this figure drops. My father-in-law was worried about the cost of it continuously running, but I explained that it's one of the most efficient dehumidifiers on the market, using 165 Watts, which on his contract costs about 60 pence a day to run. Once the RH has stabilised the dehumidifier should switch off and on to maintain the level, so should become cheaper to run. I like the optional HEPA filter to reduce the spread of mould spores and generally make the air cleaner, as I don't want my elderly relatives to catch a cough or chest infection. Being made of white and green curvy plastic, this dehumidifier doesn't exactly blend into the background of the domestic environment, but it sits in the hallway at the bottom of the stairs and doesn't stand out too much, and the rounded corners means less chance of somebody bruising themselves if they accidentally walk into it. The fan is not too loud and while it could be quieter for a domestic setting, it's certainly no noisier than other models. There are similar specified dehumidifiers on the market that are a bit cheaper, but this is made by a specialist British firm that have won awards for their products and who can be easily contacted for advice and potential repairs or spare parts, which gives confidence for long-term ownership. Overall I'm very pleased with this purchase and think it's exactly the right dehumidifier for my parents-in-law's house. I was impressed enough to buy another Meaco dehumidifier for my own property.Read full review
