electriQ Essential 12L Quiet Low-Energy 4.6p/hour Dehumidifier for Home | Smart Humidistat & Air Purifier Filter | Ideal Bedroom Dehumidifier for Drying Clothes & Bathroom Moisture Control

I am thoroughly pleased with this dehumidifier! I live in Dublin Ireland and use this unit to keep the humidity in check in my house as well as for drying laundry indoors. I am beyond happy with how well it works. I place this unit in the room where my laundry is drying and leave it on over night and it extracts an incredible amount of water and has my laundry dry by the morning. Very worth the investment. I only have to turn it on in the house a few times a week to get the humidity back down to 50%. Love this thing and hope it continues working this well in the future. I enjoy that it has the handle because I move it around from room to room as needed. Its not the quietest unit, but I don’t need it to be silent for what I use it for. Highly recommend.

Very pleased! Have been having a LOT of trouble with condensation/damp during these colder months in my apartment.After no real improvements with disposable dehumidifiers decided to invest in something more powerful.I am pleased with the design, it was initially what drew me away from others in terms of appearance.The system is really easy to use. You pick your desired humidity manually, they recommend around 50-55% which seems to work very well, or does for me anyway.There are two main settings, 'smart' for dehumidifiying and 'air purify' to clean the air. There is an optional light system which changes colour based on the level of humidity.I have been using the smart mode with the light system on. Within the first 24 hours my apartment went from red 80+% humidity right down to green 53%!!You are notified when the water tank is full and it is easy to drain. I was shocked by how much especially in the first few days, the unit took.The fan system at the top helps circulate the air in your environment as well as the drying of clothes, I have found it helpful in drying items on the clothes horse which I cannot tumble dry.It's not a 'silent' fan, all fans will make some noise, I found i did not notice it after a few days.I would point out the unit is a little on the heavy side, so would not recommend to someone who would struggle carrying this up and down stairs often etc.Otherwise, I'm impressed with the attractive appearance, functionality and results of this dehumidifier, would recommend.I can definitely feel and see the difference, air quality and circulation is much better!

Pros>- Collects quite a lot of water (around 2l at 20-22 degrees in the room for 12h)- Easy to use- Looks good- relatively easy to move (but as some reviewers broke the handle I mostly useit for steering as the unit is quite heavy)- Quick delivery- filters- not all dehumidifiers have themCons>-humidity meter is not accurate. The humidity goes down to 50 10 min afterturning the item on but then if you turn itOff it will go up to 60-70 or whatever the level is in the room. As the item is actuallyworking (as proven by emptying the tank every two days) it doesn’t mean the unit is not helping, more that it affects the air around itself so much it can’t tell what the humidity really is like.I will add more info if there is an update. So far had it for a month.

We’ve recently moved into a house with single glazing and poor insulation, soft furnishings feel damp, the house is hard to heat, windows drip with condensation and there is back mould forming. We bought this dehumidifier last week, let it stand for 24th ours as instructed and have since run in continuously for 5 days. It is taking out about 3 litres of water per day, everything feels warmer, the widows are free of condensation and we have beaten the mould. This has made a massive difference to our feeling of well being. I don’t know yet what it is costing to run but others have said about 4p per hour. Once overall humidity levels are in normal range I plan to only run it over night on economy 7. Aside from the unverified cost, the unit is quite noisy even on night mode (it doesn’t keep us awake as is in another part of the house at night as it is easy to move around but will can hear the fan), humidity levels are still high (65 to 69%) even after 5 days but they were 70% + so they are coming down slowly (the house was empty and unheated for nearly 2 years). Conclusion: it is doing its job very well and has made a big difference to our life.

Living in a 3 bed Victorian house with condensation, damp, mould...needed to do something. Bought this little beauty and it's only been in the house 32 hours and already working it's magic. Been left on constantly and already I've emptied 5l out of it. Yes it's a tad heavy to carry up the stairs but does have a handle. Easy to push around as has wheels. Easy to use, easy to empty (don't be rough though as you will spill water!) fairly quiet, it's been on the landing overnight and not caused any issues noisewise. The air already feels different, the bedding this morning didn't feel like it does when you go camping (slightly damp!) and the house feels warmer too, instead of the usual icebox it can be. On the whole if you want a nice little dehumidifier that works then I highly recommend this one! Very happy :D

I purchased this item on 5 December 2023, and it has been fantastic — especially since my bathroom doesn’t have a window. It’s done an excellent job preventing mould build-up after showers.Recently, the item developed a fault, so I contacted the seller. They responded quickly, stayed in constant communication, and replaced the product without any hassle — nearly two years after my original purchase.Truly outstanding customer service and a product that delivers!

Worked fine at first, but in less one year, the compressor started making a unbearable noise that can be heard in the whole house. Impossible to use at night, or if anyone is in the house. Unacceptable for the price.

I like the size and looks of this dehumidifier, it has lots if settings on it, the compressor is very quiet you just get the noise of the fan which i don’t know if it turns off when it gets to the humidity level that you will have programmed in.It’s a nice that it is on castors too.There is a couple of annoying things with the unit, the carry handle on the top is folded in a recess and you can’t get you fingers in a little groove to pull the handle up unless you ask a 2yr old to do it for you!! The water tank is a little fidderly plus delicate to take off and carry when it gets full which it will. If the fan doesn’t turn off when it reaches the required humidity I think it still carries on blowing air out for no reason. Saying that mine is in the loft set to low so i won’t no if it reaches a low enough humidity level to see.To me they are minor niggles and well worth the money, a good product with quick delivery too.
