2500 Sq.Ft Dehumidifier for Basement with Drain Hose Max 34 Pints, VEAGASO Dehumidifiers for Home, Large Room, Bathroom, Bedroom, Three Modes, Intelligent Humidity Control, Dry Clothes, 24HR Timer

I've had the product for several months and it is a little work-horse; keeping rooms that are usually damp pefectly dry. I found it to be the perfedct size: light enough to move from room to room, but also big enough to do serious work. The controls were intuitive, and the digital humidity display makes it easy to keep track of how well its performing. The noise level is resonable and the drain plug on the back is very convienent for continual use. I am very happy with my purchase.

I use this unit in my basement. It replaces my LG, also an excellent unit, which replaced my Whirlpool, no comment on that one. It's easy to set up and use and is a very quiet unit. I have to open the basement door and listen carefully to know that it's running. Does a good job so far. The window in the holding tank is very handy. At a glance I know when it needs to be emptied.I don't use the drain hose; I use the water for miscellaneous uses. Too early to comment on its reliability, though that appears to be excellent, also. I would recommend this unit to friends.

One of my better purchases on Amazon. I often end up with mediocre stuff, but this is legit. Not a cheap knockoff. It’s solid and heavy, in a good way, with a thick cord to handle the wattage. I live in California, so humidity isn’t a huge problem like other regions—but our house sits near a creek bed and we are near the coast. The upstairs is fine, but the downstair suites get damp and stay cool like a basement. Great for the summers, but not so much the rest of the year. Disposable hangers and boxes and smaller systems were too bothersome to keep up -and not doing enough so I bought this about 2 months ago. It is overkill for how I use it, but that’s what I wanted. It could cover the whole downstairs, but instead I shut it in one room or room/bath suite at a time. Within a few hours the room humidity drops from 72 to 52 and I drain a 3/4 to a full container each time. It is insane how much moisture is in the air. If using in a bathroom, I shut the toilet seat, sink drains, and cover the shower drain with a cloth. I open the closets and it draws the moisture from them. It’s meant for over a 1000 square feet so it works fast with these small spaces. I call it “the beast” because it just works so effectively. It’s quiet for me, especially when in another room. I can’t be in the room when it is on for very long because it sucks the moisture out of me. I can feel the change in the air when I breathe. I don’t know about the electric bill and don’t care, because it is fixing a problem. I don’t to keep buying and replacing disposables. I use it 3-4 hours every other day moving it from room to room. My suggestion is buy bigger than you need. That’s what I did. This way it works faster without struggling and you don’t need to run it 24/7. Hope this helps

Multiple settings for "always on," or set the desired humidity - good. Timer for turning on or off - good. Child lock - good. Small - good. Relatively quiet - good. The only questionable aspect is whether it would cover 2500 sq ft. Im skeptical. But its positives make it a good choice for the price.

I'm very pleased with the performance and quality of this. Well worth the price and great quality. It has come in handy each Spring and Summer to keep the humidity out of my house. I plan to buy a second one!

I bought this 34 pint, 2500 Sq Ft. rated dehumidifier mainly to use in my garage and just started using it a couple of weeks ago. I have a raised ranch with a 2-car, attached (unheated) garage. We get quite a bit of snow here (especially this year) and the snow melt/water that drips from my SUV onto my vinyl garage flooring, significantly raises the humidity in the garage-which has caused excessive rust/corrosion of overhead door tracks, metal support posts, tools, etc. I bought this model specifically because it has the auto defrost feature -allowing it to still function in areas where the temps are lower -like my garage. I like that it comes with a drain hose that I can use if I ever decide to have it drain into my furnace condensate pump. I like that it's on wheels bc it saves my back from having to pick it up when I need to move it. The only time I don't care for the wheels (which don't lock), is when I'm trying to pull the collection tank out. The tank’s side grooves, where you’re supposed to grip it to slide it out aren’t very big, so that can sometimes be a pain- but it's not so bad that I'd consider it a huge negative. Compared to another, similarly sized dehumidifier I bought last year- this one is slightly louder when the fan is on the high setting. However, it doesn't bother me because I only run it in the garage and the unfinished area of the basement. When the unit is running on the high setting, my sound level meter registers it between 60 and 65 dBA (Although I’m not 100% sure how accurate the meter is..) If the unit had to be placed in our typical living areas, I would likely opt for something a little more quiet, but for my situation it’s perfectly fine. Pros: *compact, nice looking unit *wheels for easily moving it around *defrost feature-allowing it to still function in cooler areas (as low as 41°F), like in an attached garage *comes with optional drain hose *auto shut off when tank is full *comes with a 3 year warranty-which was quick and easy to register for. I just scanned a qr code which opened up an email where you just fill in your name, model #, etc.. I received a fast (next day) warranty confirmation response from the manufacturer. *digital display with easy to use controls Cons: (none of these are deal breaker -for me at least) *there isn't much in the way of a recess or grip for being able to grab the collection tank and slide it out when emptying it. *wheels don't have the ability to lock -at least that I saw. Not worried about it rolling away -because unit obviously needs to be on a level surface to function properly -but would be very handy when emptying the collection tank, to hold the unit in place as you need one hand on each side to pull it straight out. After chasing it around the garage a few times, I've come up with some creative (awkward) ways to pull the tank out when there's no one around to hold the unit still for me... *When the fan setting is on high, it's probably a little louder than most would prefer if located in a frequently occupied living area. *Manual that was included doesn’t clearly state what each of the three operation modes does- it only tells you which settings (fan speed, humidity level) can be adjusted depending on which mode you are in. (Modes: Dehumidification; Drying; Continuous) Not a huge deal- I just looked it up online to figure out the difference between each. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase as it seems to be a well-made dehumidifier and has all of the main options I was looking for, including the 3 year warranty. In hind sight, I probably would've ordered the next size up for my 2 car garage, just so I wouldn't have to run it for quite as long in the cooler months. **When operating at lower temps in the winter, it's normal for dehumidifiers to take longer to remove moisture from the air (thermodynamic principles...) I'd definitely recommend this dehumidifier, and would suggest considering a unit rated for a larger room- if you want to cut back on the amount of time it actually has to run.

Works wonders, My wife and I live in a very humid apartment and this pulls moisture out of the air like you wouldn’t believe. Fairly small for its abilities and looks great.

This unit is quiet and effective. I love it! I first purchased one of the dehumidifiers with Peltier junction devices because I wanted a quiet unit. I use it in the master bedroom. The Peltier unit was loud enough that my wife complained about the noise. It wasn't bad, but it was quite obvious. And it only pulled about a cup of water out of the air in 24 hours (68 deg., 64% humidity). In fact, the humidity meter never went down more than 2%. This compressor-based unit is far superior. It pulled just over a gallon out of the air in just under 24 hours. And it is quieter than the Peltier unit was. Unbelievably, I cannot hear the compressor over the fan. I wondered if the compressor was actually running, but when I had to dump a full tank after less than 24 hours, I knew the little compressor was doing its job VERY well. Maybe the Peltier units work in some situations. My situation is a 400 sq. ft. room with 66 to 68 deg. temp. and about 64% humidity. I live close to the ocean, so keeping the humidity down is difficult. The outdoor humidity is 95-100% most of the time. I know because I have a weather station that measures it. And the outdoor temperature is betwen 40 and 60 degrees most of the time. So, yeah, I give this little guy my highest recommendation. [A year and a half later] Still loving this unit, but it started to have a problem. Veagaso tech support was amazing. Truly. They had me do a few things to troubleshoot the problem, and they determined that the defrost mechanism was not working right. They refunded the total cost of the unit. It doesn't get better than that! I have ordered another unit of the same model. We love how quiet it is, and it does a great job. In our setting (the Oregon coast where the humidity is high), we empty the reservoir about three times a day. It's easy to do, and I don't feel like drilling a hole in my house to dispose of the water outside. We ordered a second one of this model for my wife's office. It's doing a great job. Her office had been musty, now it smells normal. No mildew smell. This second one I put on a table and ran the drain hose out a sliding window. I used a long, narrow piece of wood to block the gap. Then I put another long piece of wood in the window track to keep the room secure. Works great and was necessary since no one is in the office most the time to empty it. I recommend this unit more than ever, and Veagaso as a company. [edit] I want to add that the user manual for this unit is amazing. Thorough, clear, accurate, and, best of all, written in idiomatic English. And it includes some useful information for a repair tech., should the unit fail after the warranty expires.
