We tested the laundry function, using it to dry a range of clothing – from light pillowcases to thick denim – and found it worked extremely well. She's an ambivert who enjoys communing with nature and traveling for months at a time just as much as watching movies and playing sim games at home.

This reusable dehumidifier doesn’t run on any electricity, so you can place it where you like, and it will still collect a lot of moisture from the air. I have used this dehumidifier for a few months now and it has done a brilliant job of lowering the humidity in my cellar from 90% to around 70% which has stopped the mould growth. This dehumidifier does an excellent job of tackling excess moisture, it also fights damp and mould while acting as an air purifier.It weighs in at 9kg, so moving it around is a little tricky – the addition of some castor wheels would have been helpful. That means not only having to endure the cold, but also high humidity and dampness, which comes with its own set of problems like festering mold and other allergens, ruined belongings, and newly-washed clothes that simply won't dry - to name a few. Dehumidifiers tend to remove moisture more quickly in tropical climates and more slowly when it's cold.

It’s very quiet – you’ll barely notice it’s on, especially if you have it in a family area where there’s other noise going on. Despite its small size, it can collect up to 500ml of water – ideal for small spaces, such as kitchens, bathrooms or even in damp spots such as under the stairs.It’s an easy mistake to make but be aware that the model’s size describes how many litres of water it can extract from the air within 24 hours – not the capacity of the water tank. With over half a decade of intensive experience, Jawad's repertoire spans across political discourses, societal narratives, and pivotal current events. We tested a range of dehumidifiers by letting them run continuously in different spaces and under different conditions, such as with laundry drying or while cooking. Refrigerant models remove moisture from the air by cooling and condensing it and depositing excess water into a tank. It beeps when the tank is nearly full, which is a handy feature, but it would be quite difficult to hear if you’re in a separate room.

It has a tray capacity of 900ml, and the clear design means you can see when the water needs to be emptied.

Depending on the size and energy efficiency of the model, they don’t cost much to run, even if you have them on for an extended period of time. The moisture pulled from the air gets collected into a drip tray, and dry air is pushed back into the room. Needed a dehumidifier for my back north facing bedroom which gets a few damp patches on the walls in the winter months.

Two different fan speeds will meet the various dehumidification needs of anyone by switching freely.This mode runs the unit at 35 per cent humidity and then, after six hours, switches the compressor off at 40 per cent whilst continuing to keep the fan running, which helps keep energy costs down. It’s quite tall and weighty so we’d recommend finding a semi-permanent spot for it in your home; however, its modern design means it’s not an issue to have it on display. It’s so quiet, that you don’t hear it running – ideal if you want to it on overnight without having your sleep disturbed. Our testers found the button controls intuitive and straightforward to cycle through, and the indicator lights were easy to see at a quick glance.
