We bought it just a week ago, but so far it is doing an excellent job of removing moisture from the finished area of our basement. With the humidity setting on 50% it is filling the bucket once a day. We can definitely "feel" a difference in the humidity. I'm glad we did not get a 30-pint model. Very satisfied so far.

The bucket fills pretty much to the top so you need to be careful when emptying but otherwise so far so good. Mine is in the basement so I never hear it when it's running. I just go down every couple days to empty out the water right into my sump pump well so no mess for me.

Have run on Continuous (and with HIGH fan setting) since receiving the unit 10 days ago as suggested to get humidity level down, yet it rarely gets below 50% (and never below 45%). I have disconnected hose and emptied tank over 24 hours on several occasions to measure removal, and the most I've gotten is 40 pints/day. Very disappointing as I ran my old Frigidaire 50 pint unit set at 35% RH and it would get our RH down to 35-40% in less than a day after being away for a week or two. When I wasn't using our drain hose I would empty more than 50 pints/day! Also, I NEVER ran fan on high on old unit.

We use this in a basement that reaches about 80% humidity during rainy months, and the 50 pint bucket needs to be emptied about once a day. We've been using it for about 2 weeks at the time of this review, and it is quiet and effective. My only concern is that if the bucket is carried only by the handle (i.e. not held underneath also when carrying) the plastic handle could eventually break due to the weight of the water.

I still dont understand why they mount the humidity sensor inside the cabinet...but like every other one on the market they do...I moed it to the outside so it didnt cycle as much and it sees to work great...this one shuts EVERYTHING off when it reaches set humdity...many of the "other" brands do NOT...the fan stays on all the time...I dont want that and thats why I bought the Fridgidaire... they also stand behind their product 110%

I purchased thIS dehumidifier from Wallmart online. It arrived way ahead of the projected delivery date which was nice. The outside of this unit is mostly plastic which makes it much lighter than my old one. I took it out of the box and plugged it in. It has been running and doing it's job ever since which was 2 weeks ago. So far so good.

This works fine, but it could be quieter. It is louder that my previous dehumidifier which was a Soleus Air. Unfortunately, that one was recalled due to a possible fire hazard. You could hardly hear it, standing next to it. This one is louder but not excessively so. Just not what I've gotten used to.

Dehumidifier working well. Seem to have a small leak where drain hose is connected. Could be the hose and I have to wait until some one comes that can go down stairs and try to fix it as I am handi capped. Son has had a Frigedare for several years and is very happy with his demumidifier. Very pleased with the way my order was handled and product delivered. I think I received the order the next day or the second day after placing it. Second time I had order sent to house and very pleased. Certainoly will be shopping at Wal Mart again.

I have been using this dehumidifier in my basement for about 3 weeks and so far, I am quite satisfied with the unit. I based my decision to purchase this dehumidifier from the many highly rated reviews that I had read plus checking overall consumer reports. It runs more quietly than my previous unit. I can definitely tell a difference in my basement.

For the most part, I am happy with this dehumidifer; however, upon arrival a piece of plastic in the "bucket" was broken off. it doesn't interfere with how the product operates but was disappointed that it arrived in that condition. It was/is too cumbersome to return. It does operate as advertised and would buy another Frididaire
