Our house has always suffered from damp and we often have to use a dehumidifier to keep it in check. Our old dehumidifier, which we have had for many years, is getting noisy, a bit scruffy and is much larger than the modern ones. So this new model from FRESHDEW is a good upgrade.

In the box, you receive the dehumidifier itself, two filters (one installed), a short drainage tube, a long drainage tube, and a well written and easy to read user guide. The build quality all seems fine, light in weight but robust and built to last, so far as I can tell. At 29 x 24 x 42 cm it is quite a bit smaller than my old one despite having a better water extraction rate of up to 12Ltrs per day. Weighing just 8 kg and wheel mounted makes it much more transportable too.

On the top, it has a large touchscreen display allowing you to check the current humidity level and to select the operating mode and target humidity you need as well as setting the timer, fan speed and power options. On the back is the detachable 2.5Ltr water tank which you will have to empty daily unless you use the included hosepipe for automatic draining. The hosepipe can be fitted without needing to remove the drain tank.

Operation
Operation is simple enough, press the POWER button to switch on, press the FAN button to select low or high power, and press the SETTING button to select the operating mode. There are two operating modes: Continuous (CO) and Comfort (AU). The first press will set it to Continuous mode and the screen will show the current Humidity level and the unit will maintain that level unless the SETTING button is pressed again to scroll between 30% and 80% target humidity levels. Keep pressing the SETTING button and you will enter Comfort mode and AU will show on the screen. In Comfort mode, you can vary the fan speed but not the humidity level, which is set by the device to the optimum level. In either mode set the fan to high to more rapidly reach the desired humidity.

Timer
Press the TIMER button to set the delay before the device turns on or turns off. When the device is in operation press the timer button to set the delay before it turns off automatically, the screen will show the number of hours. When the device is plugged in but turned off pressing the TIMER button will set the delay until it begins operation.

There are LED and audio alerts for a full water tank and the unit will cease working at this point. There is also an alert for frost detection - frost may form on the internal pipes operating in cold weather and degrade performance but the device will automatically defrost to alleviate this.

The unit is nicely designed and fits in well to the living room or anywhere that needs the humidity regulating and the unit can extract up to 12Ltrs daily from an area up to 2500 square feet. With a noise level of just 40dB, it is far quieter than my old machine, which used to dominate the room.

And that it is, that is all there is to it.

In use, it works well and will markedly reduce the humidity levels in the house and you can also use it to fast dry clothes. It is lightweight but feels well made and built to last, not too large, easy to move - it has wheels - and not too noisy.

The original price is around £149 but expect to pay much less when discounts apply.
