Ebac 2250e 15 Litre Dehumidifier for Condensation, Damp and Mould with Smart Auto-Function, ​Laundry Boost and Air Purification Mode, Free 2 Year Warranty, White

I didn't think my flat was 'damp' - there was a bit of condensation on the wall in one of the bedrooms, and a tendency for a slight mildew problem when the weather got colder. I purchased the Ebac 2650e to get rid of the mildew - and it has transformed the climate in my entire flat! The unit is very simple to use - let it run on 'Auto' setting for a couple of weeks - just switch it on and forget about it, it will adjust humidity levels automatically and remove as much moisture from the air as necessary for a healthy environment. I was quite surprised to be emptying the unit once a day at first, but as humidity levels decrease, it requires emptying less frequently. I now run it on 'economy' mode, and empty the reservoir a couple of times a week. My flat is quite large, and over two floors - ground floor and basement. I'd imagined that the dehumidifier would only work over one floor, but it seems to have gone to work on the entire flat. I used to have to run a mini-dehumidifier in my downstairs storage room, but this is now not needed. The downstairs bathroom feels cozy and dry, as does the rest of the flat. I really can't describe how much more comfortable the flat feels. I work from home several days a week, and usually by mid-October i have to run the heating all day in order to stay warm - no more - now the heating comes on for a total of 3 hours a day. All traces of mildew on the bedroom wall have completely vanished, and there is no sign of condensation. I haven't calculated how much electricity the unit uses - I'd imagine that it will be more than compensated by the savings on my gas bill - but I'm feeling so cozy and warm that I don't care! The unit itself is small and discrete and makes very little noise. I'm delighted with it, and wish I'd purchased one ages ago.

Ebac was suggested to us by one of our relative.We bought this in 2016 to deal with high humidity in Dec as the building was very old. It helped (not 100%) in not having moulds in evry nook and corner coz of dampness. Use to dry the laundry inside the flat with Ebac on and it use to dry up fast. Definitely removes the moisture from the air make it fresh and less heavy to breathe making the area warm. Functions are simple and easy to understand but its quite heavy to carry around as I keep changing its place to suck the moisture from every where(may be its silly me). Its not completely silent, sometimes the compressor makes little noise like a fridge. Emptying is easy and it shows red light when the water canister is full. You should/have to change the filter over time.And the water since its distilled can be used for ironing like I do (avoids limescale build up in iron). Or you can use to water plants.During winters (mostly Nov- Feb) I keep it running all day somedays at night but on auto mode with lowest fan setting.All in all its very sturdy has been going on without fail from past 4 years.Really happy with this dehumidifier so far. In future if need arises will buy the same Brand.

Iv'e had this problem for a few years and always thought that it was a leak coming under the UPVC frame of the conservatory. It always seemed to be at it's worst when the rain was really pelting down. I decided to give a de humidifier a go at the problem and I'm glad that I did. The carpet tiles used to be soaked with water at the left hand corner and I was forever lifting them and drying them off etc. The problem wasn't a leak, it was condensation running down the conservatory window glass and onto the tiled floor. The difference is astounding particularly as it's been pouring down almost all the time the Ebac has been operation. The tiles have dried out and the condensation problem is non existent. Probably a de humidifier of whatever make would have cured the problem to some extent, but I can only review the Ebac and it appears to be excellent. For the first week or so of operation I had to pour out a couple of litres of water every day, but as the conservatory floor dried out it may take a week to get any where near full. Certainly when I'm cooking, particularly boiling veg and tatties I have my window open and extractor on to prevent excess condensation appearing in the conservatory(adjacent to the kitchen). I'm much more careful about steam in the kitchen after realising just how much can go into the air from a pan of simmering water. The de humidifier does the job and my Electricity bill hasn't leapt upwards. It gives out a little bit of heat and the contols all seem to work well. I should have purchased one years ago.
