Challenge 10 Litre Dehumidifier

Product Information

If you have a serious damp or condensation problem, it’s worth buying a model with a bigger tank so that it keeps working all night. How to choose the best dehumidifier for your home Water tank capacity: This is how much water the unit can hold, ranging from around 250ml to six litres. The smaller the dehumidifier, the more regularly you’ll have to empty the tank, though some larger models have a continuous drainage option through a hose.

Intelligent dehumidification allows for automatic adjustments of the humidity while continuous dehumidification provides immediate results. There are three fan speeds, a timer function and automatic restart allowing the unit to turn on automatically in the event of a power loss. That said, dehumidifiers aren’t the most stylish-looking devices. Hence, you’re unlikely to want a large unit sitting in the middle of your lounge but still think carefully about its placement. If the moisture comes from a leaky window or front door, place it near them. With the cost of living going up, we know that dehumidifiers can be expensive, so we’ve included this mid-budget option from Argos’ Challenge range. Effective, energy efficient and reasonably priced (comparatively), their 12L dehumidifier is reportedly a little noisier than other models, but Mumsnet users and previous customers agree that it does the job!

Clothes drying during the winter months is not an easy task. But the Swan 20L Low Energy Dehumidifier really helps to speed up the whole process. It’s a thirsty machine and fills up in no time at all. It is easy to set up, use and empty and it’s pretty easy on the eye too (well, for a dehumidifier). This function means that you are able to put the device on a timer so that it comes on at your desired time. Wheels

Meaco Arete is my best little cellar-dwelling friend. No idea if he’s actually helping anything, but he collects loads of water, and it makes me feel better about the damp situation, so I absolutely love him"(Recommended by Mumsnetter cimena) Mumsnet has been helping parents make their lives easier since 2000 and, in those years, we’ve seen, tried and reviewed thousands of products.
