This is one of the easiest to use dehumidifiers on the market. There are no wires, buttons, or displays. Just place it at the problematic area and you’re good to go.
The dehumidifier is very small, so you can put it inside closets, cupboards, even bags or washing machines. It will work for approximately 4 weeks until you need to recharge it again.
Unlike other silica gel dehumidifiers that are only good until the gel has absorbed the moisture to its limits, this one can be reused several times. Once it has reached its absorption limit, just take it to an open area like a garage or utility room and plug it to a charger. This will heat up the gel and evaporate the moisture from it.
Keep in mind that there are no fans or coil systems to help reduce the humidity level. Instead, it uses an absorbent gel that will absorb between 4 and 6 ounces of water in four weeks.
This is one of the quietest dehumidifiers available on the market. Running at 40 dB (about the same noise as you get in a library), it won't disturb anyone's sleep. Thanks to this quietness, it's ideal for bedrooms or bathrooms, without any annoying humming noises coming through the walls or doors.
While most dehumidifiers have alarm lights, LCDs, and controls, this one only has an on/off switch. The design is very simple, yet elegant, and it will not feel like an industrial white block that needs to be hidden from view.
Like almost all dehumidifiers, this one shuts off when the container is full of water. Additionally, it will shut off if it senses overheating danger. This is especially useful for this unit, since you can’t set any timers or power levels.
It is noticeably smaller than other dehumidifiers. Measuring only 9.3" in height and a bit more than 5" in depth and width, it won't be difficult to find place for it in your house.
The water tank is transparent, making it easy to keep track of how much water is in it and allowing you to plan how much time will pass before the tank needs to be emptied.
The controls are as simple as it can get: just one on/off switch. There are no timers or the ability to control the desired humidity level or fan speed.
The device has a rather slow air intake, and it will run poorly in areas larger than 200 square ft. Even if you manage to use it to collect the moisture from a large room, this means having to empty the small tank many times a day, as there is no drainage pipe for the water to flow away.
