Gasbye 4500 Sq.Ft. 2025 Energy Star Dehumidifier for Basement & Large Rooms with Drain Hose, Max 115 Pints/Day | 45dB Quiet Compressor | 1.7 Gal Water Tank | Auto Shut-Off & Restart, Black

I was pleasantly surprised by the Gasbye 500 de-humidifier . It arrived well packaged and the box is easier to take out . I didn`t have any trouble with the removal of the water tank at all ; I guess Amazon kept it upright on delivery . The equipment finish itself is in a glossy black plastic , very elegant (I was weary of being a matte black metal thing worth of a basement of garage) but this thing can be placed perfectly on the family room or living room(photos) and look great on it . The instructions are labeled on top and have tabs to lift out , which I did , The regular instruction book is very well done and well thought out , easy to understand . It`s been working for only 3 hours after the 24 hours settlement as instructed and it has already lowered the humidity from 65 to 50 which is the setting I put on it . It is on Normal setting so I guess it will stop any moment now . The equipment consume only 500 watts so it is perfect for a connection on a regular 15amp outlet . Noise is very minimum , another worry that it is now gone . While the compressor is working the noise is very , very minimum almost unnoticeable at 5 feet from it , so I am elated . I sent the warranty email to [email protected] last night and Amy already replied ... fantastic . I honestly think that I made a good buy on an excellent quality product with a reputable company . I hope it will last for many years to come . Frankly , the equipment exudes quality ... Although it only has been working for a few fours , I think it would have no problems for years , so , so far , I am very pleased with it . Thanks, Amy for a fast reply .

If you are thinking about this dehumidifier, get it. You won't be disappointed, at least I wasn't and am not. I live in an old house (1922) which has a halfway unfinished basement where my washer and drier are located. The way the house was built, when it rains water drains right through the basement. My house is kind of built on the side of a hill so the water doesn't puddle it moves but it stays damp in the basement and it's NC so it's humid as all get out most of the summer. Anyway, I have lived here for over 20 years and have been through quite a lot of dehumidifiers. They are heavy and cumbersome and never last as long as you want them to. I've only had this one for a month and I'm already impressed. First off, reading the reviews on the company and the customer support was a big YES from my standpoint. All of the other dehumidifiers I've had.. yeah, no one is helping with anything. You bought it.. good luck! Before I ever received this I received an email stating this machine makes noise and if it's too loud when you start using it return it. I mean, huh? They care? Holy moly. Well, it's in my basement, under my bedroom. I 100% cannot hear it in my bedroom. It's actually one of the more quiet machines I have owned. Now, if you had it next to the couch while you were watching a movie would it be annoying? Maaaybe. It's more of a sound machine sound to me when I'm next to it in the basement. Secondly, it is super easy to set up. I did let it rest in the position I wanted it in for 24 hours per the directions, this is necessary to make sure the coolant has settled, do this.. it makes the things work better. I ended up getting the 4500 sq foot one. Is it too big for my 1500 square foot house, probably, but I've had better luck with bigger machines than smaller. I like the way it has different modes you can put it in. I've had this one on turbo for a few weeks and it's rather quickly taking the humidity from the 90s down to the 60s (yeah, I went a few weeks without one while reading reviews on Amazon to find this one). I set up the continuous drain and it works like a charm. The hose does get some condensation on it because of the coolant so if you're using this in a finished area just be cognizant of that. Because it was delivered USPS they would not deliver it to my house, I had to go pick it up at the post office. It really isn't that heavy. I was worried and took someone with me to get it and I could have picked it up.. it's maybe 40 lbs, I got it home and in to the basement without any issue. It is mailed with strapping around the box so picking it up was easier than just fumbling around with a big dehumidifier box. It does have a two year warranty, if something happens to it I will be reaching out to customer support. In the meantime I'm crossing my fingers it works the way it is working now. It's quite the work horse.

Four week review... but first, kudos to the driver of the Amazon Prime truck, the young lady, after verifying I was the recipient (extra work, but nice feature Amazon), pulled it out of the truck, put it on her shoulder, crossed the street and deposited it on my porch. Which was more amazing when I went to move it, and discovered I had to roll it into the house! So, first impressions, the shipping box (not the one Amazon put it in) was sturdy, and strapped together, cut the straps and the box lifted off, no lifting it out. Clear instructions everywhere. The manual even more so, clear, well written, English ! First instruction was to leave it sitting, upright, for 24 hrs. The unit is finished in shinny black, very nice. There are also several stickers attached with all the operating info needed right on top. They also have tabs so they can be easily removed to not distract from the appearance. I kept them, very useful to have the instructions handy. Also, no set up required, it comes with a handle to lift it, that folds down. Attach the hose, plug it in, that’s it. Well, there was one minor hitch, after all the rolling around, the included hose attachment, that’s shipped in the water container, had gotten lodged, jamming the container, which took a bit to release. Once it sat for 24hr, I turned it on and away we went. I’m impressed how quickly water started being extracted, and since the drain tube is clear, fun to see it working. So, I’m very impressed, someone(s) put in a lot of effort to create a superb manual, posting needed instructions in clear view, a proper shipping container, and great looking, to top it off. I can only assume the unit was designed/built with the same care. Noise, fan is all you hear. By the time you’ve gotten to these reviews, you already know about the “best efficiency” award, features like auto restart if power failure (with saved settings), delayed restart of compressor, working temp 41-90 & 35%-80% humidity levels .... In addition, sending the Amazon order number & serial number to [email protected] extends the 1yr warranty to 2 yrs, and adds a 5yr warranty for refrigerant leakage, they then replied with a very nice email ... thank you Amy. Wrapping up, everything about this purchase gets a 5 star plus rating.
