Best energy-saving dehumidifier

Dimensions: 13.2 x 10.5 x 20.1" | Extraction rate: 50 pts/day | Water tank capacity: 7 pints | Pump/drain pipe: continuous drainage | Noise level: 50 dbA

This dehumidifier may be at a medium level in terms of price, size and appearance, but it performs well in terms of energy efficiency and is an earth-friendly energy star. It runs very quietly, so it works well in the bedroom or living room-one reviewer said they have been checking whether it still works because it is too quiet (although some people complained that it was louder than expected).

You can adjust the humidity, which is a useful feature if you live in a place where the humidity level fluctuates, and there is an easy-to-read display that allows you to see the humidity level without standing by.

The main disadvantage is the size of the collection tank. Critics complained that the water tank had to be emptied several times a day, and there were some complaints about the continuous flow tube, which was not working perfectly on the surface.

The best dehumidifier with built-in pump

Dimensions: 24 x 14.75 x 11.4" | Extraction rate: 50 pts/day | Water tank capacity: 15 pt | Pump/drain pipe: pump | Noise level: 47-51 dbA

This is by no means the cheapest dehumidifier, but if you can find one at a discount, it's worth buying. One of its great advantages is that the pump can save you from constantly emptying the tank back and forth. 77% of reviewers gave it five stars (it has an impressive overall rating of 4.6) that it is efficient and appreciate the pump function very much.

Most people find it quite quiet and like that the jar is a spacious 15 pint (especially useful for those who can't connect to the pump). Sometimes people complain about the reliability of the pump, but most users are satisfied with it.

The main disadvantage of this model is that it generates a lot of heat, which is not good if you use it in the hot and humid summer. However, this may only be needed in a cold, damp basement.

The washable filter is another popular feature.

There are some minor issues. It's worth checking if the system is compatible with your phone, and there are some complaints about connectivity-one user described it as "smart most of the time". However, in general, it is an efficient dehumidifier with functions that increase its convenience.

Like many dehumidifiers, it emits a lot of heat, but on the other hand, it also works well at lower temperatures. Some commenters have some complaints about the heat and noise, but most people are satisfied-as someone said, "The noise is minimal, it is very efficient, it can use continuous drainage, it is stylish and beautiful, it is easy to remove and return the bucket that can hold water, It's easy to roll over, and it's definitely worth the money!"

The best dehumidifier on a budget

Dimensions: 19.7 x 15.2 x 10.2" | Extraction rate: 22 pts/day | Water tank capacity: 7.7 pints | Pump/drain pipe: continuous drainage | Noise level: dbA not provided

Although the manufacturer describes it as quiet, there is no official decibel level. Customers’ own decibel measurements vary widely, so it’s hard to say how noisy it is. There are some complaints about noise in the reviews, but most customers agree that it runs very quietly.

This Amazon bestseller received an unusually high 4.7 stars on Amazon, with 80% of reviewers rated it as five stars. The most common complaint is related to the continuous drainage mechanism. Some customers have experienced water accumulation around the hose inlet, while others set it at the correct angle to let the water flow away (no pump). Others have leakage problems, it is recommended to use threaded tape. Another major complaint is that, like many dehumidifiers, it emits a lot of heat.
