MeacoDry Arete® One 12L dual Dehumidifier & HEPA air purifier for regular sized homes - prevents damp and condensation - ultra-quiet - low energy laundry mode- night mode - five year warranty

So, I was looking for ways to minimise tumble drying during the cold weather to save on energy costs. And also I wanted to dry clothes quickly indoors. I purchase a heated air recently with cover which took 5-6 hours to dry a regular load excluding heavy bedding, but is still way cheaper than running the tumble. To speed up the drying process I decided to purchase a dehumidifier. I chose this model as it is cheap to run at about 4p per hour and also has good reviews. This de-humidifier (with my heated airer) dried a thick single duvet and it's cover in about over 3.5 hours. No damp patches. Just dry!! I rolled back the airer cover. Not sure if that was the best way, but I will experiment. The 2.5 litre water tank was a bit under half full approx. when finished. If the unit performed so well on a thick duvet, folded in half to get it on the airer, and a duvet cover similarly folded, I am confident that it will dry an ordinary load very quickly. Very pleased. Easy to empty water tank. Not too heavy. Has a carry handle. Clear instructions and easy to use. It comes with a free hepa filter which is optional and only needs to be fitted if you want to purify the air as well. I will keep this little gem and register for my free 5 year warranty.

I absolutely love this dehumidifier. I have been using this since near the end of last month. Easy to use. Easy to empty. Easy to move to another room if needed. Looks smart. I have it on the landing upstairs so that it helps to reduce moisture up there. I keep two doors open to other rooms where I want this to work. As these have been the problem rooms. I notice now how I hardly get any condensation on my bedroom, to not at all. So, I am seeing the benefits in the time I have used this. I have bought this to use in the winter months because that's when I will need to use it. It's not noisy. Perfect for home. I recommend.

This arrived assembled ready to use. The Handle is clearly marked and pulls up and can be pushed in again for storage. The filter cover comes off easily and the filter provided slides in the black cover which pulls off to the left, the then it can all be slid back in place. You don’t have to use the filter, it is used for air purification. It runs a bit quieter without the filter. I left the filter in because it can collect dust, dust mites etc. The filter can be taken out & hoovered with a soft brush hoover attachment. Easy to use buttons on the top which light up with a simple push. . I used it first in dampish bedroom & it sucked up loads of moisture. The water tank has a window to show the level of water. It will turn off when full. The tank simply slides out and can be tipped in the sink to empty. It then slides back in and push. There is an attachment for a hose if you want to keep it on constantly. There is a button for using it if you are drying WASHING in the house. It will give an extra boost to collect the moisture in the room where the washing is drying. There is a button for night time where the lights go off and it runs at a lower speed so is very quiet. Every time I’ve used it, it has collected moisture. Easy to use, I recommend it.

Great dehumidifier, particularly love the clothes drying setting - clothes feel like they dry considerably faster. Thank fills up quite quickly but I just take that to mean it’s doing its job. Has wheels and a handle for easy movement around the house. 4 stars only because the night mode is not as quiet as I would like, unless you are a deep sleeper it will likely wake you up as it turns on intermittently overnight onto quite a loud mode. Other than that brilliant.

Overall a fantastic product! I've had this dehumidifier for a month now and am very pleased with its performance so far. Ease of use: 4/5: very simple control panel with a day, night & laundry mode. Very easy to find tutorials to operate and use the dehumidifier online. Collection basket has a good capacity and it can run all night without becoming full - needs emptying every other day. Effectiveness: 5/5: dries clothes well & has proven effective at reducing the humidity in the house. Cost to use: 5/5: I have used this machine constantly over the last month & seen minimal increases to my energy bill. The dehumidifier has several clever tricks to avoid energy wastage, such as an automated timer & an ability to switch of the compressor when the air is dry. Clearly, these power-saving tricks work well! Value for money: 4/5: I purchased this for around £160, which is somewhat expensive but I think worthwhile if this device continues to work as well as it is currently working for a long time. Noise: 4/5: Makes a low hum that I don't mind but others might. The night mode is good for managing this. Overall: 5/5 - Provided you have the budget & don't mind emptying it regularly, I'd recommend this device highly.

Worth every penny, I’m emptying it nearly everyday. Windows are finally less wet in the mornings. Less damp in the house. Laundry dries quicker, not too noisy either. Auto switch off features. Great that it also filters the air. Delighted

I've had this for a few months now and I've been really impressed. I usually use this in a small room with damp clothes that need to be dried and it really works - clothes dry really quickly and stops the room/house becoming damp. I was genuinely surprised how much water it collected in a short amount of time. The clothes drying function is a useful option to have so it doesn't 'shut off' when the humidity gets to 50/55%. It allows the dehumidifier to reduce the humidity to 35% which means clothes dry very quickly. Much cheaper than using the tumble dryer!

Bought for elderly parents. Solid and well made. Clear instruction booklet. Very easy to set target humidity level but can just be switched on straight out of the box. Very easy and intuitive to use. Also, very effective and removed substantial amounts of water. This was a replacement for an older Meaco model which had given very many years of trouble free service.

Chiedo informazioni a qualcuno riguardo il display non scende come temperatura al di sotto di 64 gradi se imposto la temperatura a 65 gradi non si spegne quando arriva a temperatura è normale?il problema dell'umidità non posso dire niente risolto il problema qualcuno sa darmi qualche informazione in merito grazie mille in anticipo

Läuft in den Sommermonaten tagsüber mit Strom aus der Fotovoltaik. Wunderbar. Unser Keller hat nun trockene Luft. Leises Gerät, das sehr gut verarbeitet ist und tut, was man erwartet. Entzieht in etwa 12 Stunden 2 l Wasser aus der Raumluft.

Ottimo, eccellente, di grande qualità ed efficace. Lo sto provando ormai da circa due mesi e riscontro riduzione effettiva dell' umidità (all' inizio va tenuto acceso per molte ore in ogni stanza, dipende dal grado di umidità e dalle dimensioni della stanza, ma in media sei ore al giorno), poi gradualmente si assiste ad un miglioramento in quanto si abbassa il livello di umidità fino a diventare ottimale. Una volta raggiunto il livello che non permette la rinqacita di muffe (tra il 50% e il 55% di umidità in media), basta accenderlo un' oretta al giorno in ogni stanza. Il filtro hepa inoltre rende l' aria più piacevole da respirare. Gli effetti non sono immediati, ma graduali.

Such a good dehumidifier and makes a big difference for our home.

Je viens de l’acquérir, pour le moment je n’ai rien à dire, il fait bien son taf, je ressens moins l’humidité, par contre petit bémol il est un légèrement bruyant pour la nuit, la journée cava on y pense pas mais la nuit je l’allume pas car la journée il fait bien son taf, Je recommande le produit
