Had a water leak in the house over the summer and everything got "damp". This unit helped solve the related issues. No longer have condensation on the insides of the windows. Have only run it on low and it sucks the water out of the air just fine. It's fairly loud but then again we DO have a very small house and like a previous reviewer said, "it's white noise".

The unit was very easy to get up and running out of the box. It's been working overtime drawing the moisture out of the carpet in my basement rec-room. It's a 50 pint unit and I've been emptying it about every other day-7 tanks of water so far! It's very quiet and has an automatic shut-off. The tank is extremely easy to empty. I can only hope that it's being energy-star compliant, this month's electric bill won't be affected too much.

I had to buy a new dehumidifier because my old one was part of a recall. This new one seems like it runs a lot to get to the humidity level I set it at compared to my other one. It is quiet. I also think the humidity level that you set it at is not accurate as indicated in other reviews. I had to turn it down lower (45%) to get the humidity level at 55%. Never had this problem with my other one. So in reviewing this humidifier I would suggest to someone to buy perhaps a different brand that hopefully wouldn't run so much and would be more accurate with its readings

Only had it fired up for a week or two, but it seems to be better than expected. Most reviews on various web sites rate this model as superior. At this point, I'd have to concur. It is quieter than expected. At least much quieter than my old DeLonghi. It also pulls out the humidity from my 900 square foot 1/2 basement MUCH faster than anticipated. I turn the machine on and set the unit's humidistat for 50. When the humidity reaches 55+/- on my separate humidistat, I shut the machine down. When the humidity climbs to 60+, I turn it on again., and so on and so forth. At night, I shut it down till the AM. I did this with the Delonghi and the machine lasted almost 5 years before it failed (slow coolant leak).

This product arrived earlier than expected; kudos to Walmart and ups. This product worked out of box. It is quiet and durable. This product rates the current humidity (which I have not checked if it gives an accurate amount) and let's you choose your desired humidity. You can set a timer for this product or let it run continuous. The tank is fairly large, I ran it for 12 hours and did not have to empty it quite yet. You can also attach a hose and not worry about emptying the tank.

I was pleased to read the instructions copyright by Electrolux in 2009. Thus the product has been a success for at least five years. It is doing a nice job, keeping my humidity at 55 degrees. With the fan on high the water bucket fills up and the fan turns off during the night. So I run the fan on low when I go to bed and the unit is still running in the morning. My biggest concern was that FedEx left it outside my door, without ringing my door bell, so when I found it, the box was up side down. I took dehumidifier out of the box and set it upright and waited until the next day to start it running. It works very well.

This was a first "major" purchase I have made from Wal*Mart since being let go as a former employee of Sears. I must say, this is why Sears is going broke! A great turn around for the delivery time and a better product that those sold by Sears! I couldn't find this item anywhere around my area so this was my last choice and it arrived a lot faster than expected. Great job Wal*Mart!

The dehumidifier arrived very quickly. It is in service and doing a fine job. I have a condensate pump that fit in the bucket of the failed LG unit that this replaced. This enabled me to run the dehumidifier without emptying it since the pump kept the bucket empty. Also, if the pump failed, the full bucket switch of the LG dehumidifier would have shut the unit down to prevent any flooding. Unfortunately the new unit does not provide openings from the bucket to run a pump wire and water tubing from the pump. Even if it did, the bucket is too small to handle even a small pump. I did not see any information on-line prior to my purchase that said that such a feature was or was not possible with the unit I bought. It is possible that it did, and I missed it.

This is used in a large crawl space and does a good job of keeping the humidity level in the comfort range. The water container design could have been better as you have to be careful to avoid spillage when emptying into a sink or toilet. A minor inconvenience in an otherwise very well functioning dehumidifier.

arrived at store pickup a day early than estimated for delivery. out of the box unit was plugged into current settings were entered on the console for settings desired next morning a bucket full of water and the unit was in pause mode emptyed bucket and replaced bucket unit turns itself back on and cycles again I'm a very satisfied customer.....
