About this deal
Despite it being 16kg, it’s extremely portable, thanks to the included castor wheels, and if you need to carry it to another room or between floors, there’s a pull-up handle. The Midea helps solve a problem common to many dehumidifiers: Just how the heck do you get rid of all the water it collects?
Think small window air conditioner, not box fan (in terms of electricity use) and you have the idea. It uses the same mobile app for Android and iOS devices as the Midea 8,000BTU U-shaped Air Conditioner and the Midea Duo Smart Inverter Portable Air Conditioner. It works by encouraging air to circulate and flow through a tablet similar in design to a dishwasher tablet.
This dehumidifier does an excellent job of tackling excess moisture, it also fights damp and mould while acting as an air purifier.
Push the button in the center of it to extend the support arms and stack the unit, then pinch the arms back in to nest it.Within six hours both units had pulled over a gallon of water each out of the air and dropped the house humidity almost 10%. Fortunately the console and the phone app both allow you to configure it to do a high water shut off far earlier than the physical bucket becoming full, if you want to stop it at 25%, 50%, 75% for weight reasons. I ran it on and off for a few weeks in my home, and loved how easy it was to empty: Just lift the top section off, then carry the bucket outside and dump it — it was ideal for watering the flowers. I placed the dehumidifier in my basement, which is a little more than 900 square feet and susceptible to high humidity levels during the summer months. The best dehumidifiers can rid your home of moisture and condensation, and even prevent damp and mould from occurring.
