  • Dehumidifiers - anyone have a particularly informed opinion on whether it's worth going for the brand I've heard of (Meaco) Vs the many brands that sound made up (humizap, Honeywell etc) which are currently being aggressively discounted via black Friday sales? Or, does anyone have Which? Subscription and fancy sending me the recommended buys?

    Cheers

  • We had a maeco one for a few years when we needed one. Really rated it.

  • Honeywell are a "proper" company.

    I've got a meaco one. Mainly as it is wasn't much more expensive and it is quieter and more energy efficient (according to the specs at least).

  • Honeywell are over one hundred years old and have almost one hundred thousand employees. Definitely a proper company.

  • Edit: I see you got the Honeywell chat alr. I believe literage night also relate to how theoretically effective it is at pulling moisture

    Honeywell are not made up, although they are mostly heating/thermostat related so not directly applicable to Dehumidifiers. We have a Meaco that seems fine?

    One thing to consider is that a lot of the noise will depend on how well balanced the fan bearing is so might be a reason to spend with a reputable brand

  • Strong recommendation for the Ecoair DD1 Simple. Can fill its tank in a day or two (or much longer if less humidity) or be continuously drained into a sink etc. with the included hose. It warms the air as it works, so brilliant for laundry in a room with a closed door. Not too expensive to run.
