Testimonial

"Like my other appliances, "if it isn't broken, don't fix it." Or upgrade it. Well, I have three dehumidifiers and one did break. Well it fell of the counter by accident. I replaced it with this Frigidaire wifi model. Why?: So I could control it from NJ to VT where it is installed, monitor its usage, have fun doing it. Good decision. Now for my other 2 dehumidifiers. I'm donating one and sold the other. I'm upgrading those also to the Fridgidaire. So now about COST. They are not much more than similar non-Wifi models. And the cost difference, I don't know, what's being able to turn it off/on, change the settings and timer from a distance worth to you? Which has more value at that point, the money or the piece of mind? Thank you Fridgidaire." - Kevin

Testimonial

"Wow! I put this in my semi finished basement and was amazed at the water it took out of the air. It makes my basement feel warmer too, so I don't mind being down there now. Musty smell is gone and no more molding items. The unit was easy to set up and I had it running within 10 minutes of receiving the box. Plus, it really does shut off when the reservoir gets full, which I was a little worried about. Only suggestion is when the reservior is full, it is FULL. Have a bucket handy to pour some of the wayer into so you don't spill on your way to the sink." - Tessa

Testimonial

"I had three dehumidifiers running in my 600 square feet, 1902-era basement, and it still would never dry out. After purchasing the Dri-Eaz for $1100 on sale, I have retired the other three because the Dri-Eaz works far better than all of them combined. I can actually get the humidity level down to around twenty percent. I can SMELL and FEEL the difference. The Dri-Eaz has a nice set of features, including a reservoir pump, a cleanable filter, a looong power cord and discharge hose, an informative display, and lots of operational parameters that can be changed. The only negative I have found is that the rear filter often ices up. This isn't a deal-breaker, but it means you'll have to check on it from time to time (which is a good idea with any dehumidifier anyway). When I think of how much money I spent on THREE dehumidifiers (not to mention the tripled electricity cost), I kick myself for not buying a Dri-Eaz sooner." - Matthew

Testimonial

"The dehumidifier is very easy to operate through a well designed top control pannel. The unit works great although it is not super quiet. The noice level could affect your sleeping if it is put in the same room. But it works fine for me since I use it in my bathroom that does not have any open window. It pulls moist out great and not taking a lot of room. Have noticed that the machine has some smell when it runs, smell like some kind of burning plastic. It may due to the machine is new (just have it for one week), hope the odor will go away after using it for some more days. Will give an update on it." - John

Testimonial

"I couldn't decide between 4 and 5 stars, but finally landed on 5, as my concerns are relatively minor. Overall this is a great machine and I recommend it if you have under 2000 sq. feet to dehumidify. With the recent heavy rains, my 1200 sq. foot apartment became too humid and began to smell musty. The dehumidifier was trivial to set up - just take it out of the box, plug it in and turn it on. I took it off the preset continuous cycle (with one button press) and set the relative humidity for 50% (with another button press). It ran almost continuously for two days to wring the moisture out of the air, stopping only when the catch basin was full. Now it cycles on and off and keeps the place comfortable. My two minor concerns are: (1) it is a little tricky to put the catch basin back in place after emptying it, but I think I have mastered that now. (2) It is a bit noisier than I had expected it would be; not as loud as I had worried it might be based on some comments, but louder than I thought it might be based on others. I put the machine in the second bedroom, so the noise level in the main living area and master bedroom is quite minimal. But even from there it keeps the entire apartment very comfortable." - Tom

Testimonial

"I initially make one mistake with it though - I didn't read the installation instructions very carefully and assumed that all I had to do to attach to drain hose to the back of the unit was to push the hose onto the connector. I didn't realize until after it started leaking a few days later, that I had to attach it with the nut that they provided (even though the directions clearly say so - I didn't notice that until I re-read them ). So for a few minutes I thought the unit had a leak, but then figured out the problem, and after I attached the hose correctly it's been running great - very quite and effective" - Tom

Testimonial

"I did good amount of research before purchasing this product and it paid off. This dehumidifier is compact but easily pulls moisture from the entire 2000 square foot house from its place in the hallway without having to move it from room to room. I couldn't ask for a more efficient, well-designed and user-friendly product. It runs fairly quietly, sounding to us like a white noise machine, which we find relaxing. The air it blows out is fairly cool, the bucket is easy to empty, the control panel is easy to use, and it is substantial but moves easily on casters. The clean-filter light seems to be accurate and the filter is a breeze to clean. I have already recommended it to a co-worker who is also happy with her purchase." - Abe

Testimonial

"I purchased this unit for my daughter in Asheboro, NC during the bad weather due to Hurricane Florence. They didn't have flooding, but when they plugged it in, it measured 78% humidity in their home (like camping out indoors). Within 2 days time the humidity was gone and their home was back to normal. This truly was a godsend to them.....the gift that will keep on giving!" - Susan
