Has worked like a dream since we bought it in 2016. It's amazing how much water it pulls out of the air/house from smart mode.
A 4bed semi in NW England; placed in empty front main bedroom. On first use in Oct 2016 was on for two days straight (needed emptying three times), then it went into standby and only came on occasionally through the week. Kept us moisture free the whole winter.
Now a year later, it's on its second winter with us. House heats up more quickly with moisture gone and strips of condensation at bottom of windows all over the house are largely eradicated, even with this static upstairs. This autumn we've started using the laundry drying mode and closing it in a room with damp washing. Again, works a treat.
Hard to find any negative aspects. Recessed fingerholes for carrying are a bit shallow. Noise wise you could sleep with it on, but you're definately going to hear it if you're in the same room. It works so well we have to empty it every two days, but it has a cutout and warning light. Obv you could plumb it in to a drain too.
Track prices as we got a good Amazon deal and only paid about £145 including delivery.
MAY 2020 UPDATE: Its been through its fourth winter with us and now sits on the first floor landing. It draws water from over the house as ever and needs emptying roughly once a week.
It remains a reliable workhorse that does what it's meant to, well. Four winters and counting.
