We have a crawl space that measures approximately 40’x60’ in size (about 2400 sq feet). We are located in a flood plain and can get moisture in our crawl space, so we use a dehumidifier down there that runs pretty frequently. We haven’t had it long, but so far this dehumidifier has worked well for us at keeping the humidity at the levels we are looking for. It has reduced the humidity quickly for us, despite the fact that our space is quite a bit larger than the specifications for the unit.The humidifier was delivered quickly (which we needed) and was packaged well. Normally I can expect some carton damage or item damage when I order items of this size, but the packaging on this was great at preventing any shipping damage.The dehumidifier is ready to use right out of the box. The unit included all of the necessary accessories to plug it in and use it immediately, so we didn’t need to make any trips to the hardware store for additional parts and pieces. We are using it with the included drain tube which runs to our sump pump, and we have it sitting right on the concrete floor.The on board push button controls are easy to use and intuitive. We did not purchase any additional remote controls for the unit because we found the on board ones to be sufficient for our needs.One of the major benefits of this dehumidifier is that it is more compact than other dehumidifiers of its specifications. That was an important factor to us, because it is difficult for us to get a dehumidifier down into our crawl space. Our previous dehumidifier of similar specifications was much larger, and required multiple people to lift it while barely squeezing it through our hatch. This one only required one person to lift it down, and it easily fit through the hatch.The unit does run a little bit louder than our previous larger dehumidifier, but we are working it pretty hard since our space is larger than what the unit is specified for. I do not find it overly loud. Some of my older dehumidifiers were much louder than this one, and would rattle. This one is definitely an improvement over those.Overall, we are very happy with our purchase. I am considering also purchasing one of these for my mother’s basement, because the size is great and she would find it easy to use.
