Waykar 2000 Sq. Ft Most Efficient Energy Star 2025 Home & Basement Dehumidifier with Automatic or Manual Drain, 33dB Quiet Operation, 0.6 Gallon Water Tank Capacity

I've had this unit for about a year now and it's worked excellent at taking the humidity out of the air in the room. We live in humid Texas, and if we set the dehumidifier too low, we actually need hand lotion because our hands dry out. I set an alarm to make sure I empty the unit before work because without fail, it will fill the tub every day! The unit has an option of using the .6 gal tub or a direct drain. I don't have a basement, so I use the tank. I can see the water level from the front, and also remove the tank from the front which I love. The motor runs quietly, and even though it's setting in the living room with us, we've become accustomed to it and it doesn't bother us. The unit has a timer, several comfort settings, auto-defrosting, and a child lock to prevent accidental changes in programs. I also love that it has wheels and you can move it easily from one area to the next. I did write Waykar about a small issue I was having, and they were fast to respond and worked with me right away. I haven't seen many companies who care to help their customers when the purchase has been almost a year away, so that has really impressed me about the company itself. Excellent customer service, thank you! As far as the unit, you can't go wrong with this dehumidifier. It's a great unit, does its job, and will keep your home or area nice and dry. I've never had a dehumidifier that removes so much water from the air, and this one certain gives the others a run for their money.

This dehumidifier does not work , at all . It cost me 500 dollars Australian. And zero dollars freight. Now I can't get a refund until I return it at a cost to me of $260au . Don't know what yo do .

I’ve been using this dehumidifier for several months in my home, and overall I’m very satisfied. The unit is compact and doesn’t take up much space, yet it’s surprisingly powerful at controlling humidity. The fan noise is very low, especially compared to other units I’ve used before, which makes it suitable for everyday use. What really stands out is Waykar’s customer service. When I had a question about the unit, their support team was responsive, professional, and genuinely helpful. They followed up promptly and worked with me to resolve the question, which gave me a lot of confidence in the brand. Overall, this has been a solid purchase, and the reliable customer support makes the experience even better. I would recommend this dehumidifier to anyone looking for an effective and well-supported solution.

I bought this to use in my ~250 sqft bedroom that's been getting humid this summer (in the 70% RH range). I had bought a small 50oz unit previously that was advertised as being suitable up to 1000 sqft but it barely made a dent so I upgraded to this one and this works fine to keep humidity down in the 50s. My biggest complaint is how it sounds. I specifically got this one because it had the lowest advertised dB I could find with this size unit and it is overall more quiet than the 35 pint Midea dehumidifier I have on my main floor but while the Midea is a very white noisy sound where you just hear the steady fan/motor, this one's compressor makes very annoying sloshing and crackling sounds that are not as good for sleeping as white noise. I also wish it had a sleep mode that shut the light indicators off. I have an air purifier that does that but doesn't seem common in dehumidifiers. The unit is very small overall, probably a third of the size of my Midea with the same dehumidification capacity. The downside of that is that the tank is super small as well. I have to empty it about twice a day. I do like that the tank has a lid to prevent spillage which the Midea does not. Another pro is that this seems to have some of the lowest electricity usage out of the units with this capacity. I haven't measured it, just going by what's listed in the specs. TLDR: I wouldn't recommend it to use while sleeping due to the sound but overall a decent product.

​​I wanted a dehumidifier with low watts and this is very low for this type of appliance. Ever since I bought solar panels and solar batteries, low watts are now my main appliance criteria. I have a watt tester and this is only 111-119 watts with the compressor running. I have checked it many times. I also wanted a unit that can blow air sideways and does not blow air straight up to the ceiling since I want to direct the air and heat from it. I might have considered a different brand if not for that. The other reason I wanted a low watt small unit is because I want it to run it all night on continuous or dry settings so I do not have to hear the compressor come on and off which is noisy. So I do not care that it takes awhile to bring the humidity down because I intend to leave it on all night in cool weather, so it is perfect for my needs. It took one hour to reduce the humidity in a 10 X 10 foot room from 75% to 45% - so if you have a large space....it may take quite a while longer or it may depend on how insulated your home is or how damp the climate, so it may not be able to keep up. am using it for a single room, so it seems fine. If you want something for a large room or to work very quickly and then simply shut off, and you have a lot of humidity, this may not be for you, not sure. My larger dehumidifier uses 400 watts and can do the same percent humidity change, as above, in about 10-15 minutes instead of an hour, so I am not saving watts for each percent in humidity change. It is still about 100 watts total to get the job done with either one in a single room. However, like I said, I want to leave it on, so this saves a lot of energy over time. My home is also not well insulated so even if the large unit gets the job done in under 15 min - it may be damp again by the end of the remaining hour making the smaller unit a better option under those conditions. The other advantage (or disadvantage) of this unit is that being low power, it produces a lot less heat. It only raised the room temperature a couple of degrees in one hour. My larger unit can change a room temperature by about 10-15 degrees in a larger 12X12 foot room and is a good heating option in winter. I am not sure yet if this will be a good winter heat source or if it will simply be my mild spring-fall option. We will see. Either unit is far more energy efficient than any space heater, by far, regardless. The other thing that makes this a good option, is that if you set it at 45 percent humidity (rather than use continuous or dry) it will shut off at around 42-43% and not come back on until 47-48%, thus, it is not turning on and off all the time for every percentage change in humidity. My larger one, of a different brand, does that, and with only a 1 percent change, it turns on and off and it is super annoying and loud when it does, thus the need for the continuous setting. So, it depends on what you are looking for. So far, so good, for what I wanted, and I will also probably use it to dry hand washables in the bathroom with the dry setting on damp days, as well, with the dry setting. It came with a manual but no set-up instructions. Its humidity gauge is similar to my separate units if placed nearby, so accurate enough. It does shut off when the bucket is full - that works fine. Do not forget to tighten the hose adapter plug in the back! Mine came lose, but I noticed it ahead of time. If you do not tighten it, it may leak. The unit is also a bit noisy. It is not louder then my bigger one but makes a higher pitch background sound and some slight chugging sounds, so I hope I can habituate to that.
