We had a roof leak and the area began to smell like mold. I checked the house relative humidity and it was 74%. I ran the dehumidifier constantly for 4 days, set at 50%, and the humidity dropped to 50% throughout the 2000 square foot house. It removed about 5 gallons a day. After a couple of weeks, it now removes about 2 gallons a day and keeps the humidity at about 45 to 50%.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second Frigidaire 50 pint dehumidifier that we have purchased because the first one worked so well. We love how it never freezes up and can be used in a cooler basement space. It is pretty quiet for how hard it works.

Works as expected, but changing from Continuous to Timer and back again wasn't intuitively obvious. Somehow, I figured it out, but I'm a 'techie' who thinks operations of low-tech items like this should be easier to fugure out, especially since there are but a few operations one needs to initiate with a dehumidifier.

I really like the design of the filter system. It is super easy to slide the filter back into the unit after it has been rinsed off. With my previous dehumidifier I had to lay down on the floor in order to be able to see where the filter was supposed to go. I also find the "clean filter" reminder feature helpful.

Purchased about a month ago and it worked great out of the box. Replaced a previous Frigidaire product that had problems in the 5th year of operation but Frigidaire really stepped up and took care of the issue and I ended up buying a new unit from them because I was more than satisfied with the customer service they provided. Have had no problems and it works like a charm!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My older Frigidaire dehumidifier has been a very reliable product so I purchased two more of these units. The units have been working very well. I live on the gulf coast so it is important to keep the humidity low in my house and garage. Allergy doctor says to keep the humidity below 50% so mold will not grow in the house.

The unit is more quiet than our old (1980's) unit. It has a calibrated digital humidity adjustment and it is +/- 7% accurate (usually over drys the air relative to setting). We monitor this independently with humidity meter. The new unit also appears to use more electric than the old system. We do run the new system via a hose, and the old system was a bucket fill approach. So, there may be more off time when we failed to empty the bucket immediately when full. But $10 more for this first month verses last June 2015 seem a bit costly. Have to give it a few months to be sure. I like the control features and the reusable air filter...a big enhancement to the old style. Our unit is in the basement. It does a great job. We keep it set at 65%; but our monitor show 58-61% range.

Within 48 hours I had dumped 5-6 buckets of water!! I was impressed and pleased. My only complaint is that the humidifier puts out warm air as it works thus the room it stays doesnt keep cool. Howecer, this might be the norm for all dehumidifiers. Overall pleased with how it works!

This has been in use in a stored motorhome nearly one month and has performed flawlessly. With the unit running in continuous mode, it nearly filled the reservoir every day for more than a week as it drew stale, moist air out. I didn't check it one day and the next day the unit was full and the auto-off feature shut it down just as designed. Being in the humid Gulf Coast region, I leave the unit on 24/7 and set at 50% and it needs emptying every 3-4 days. It's amazing the difference it has made. Cabinet doors that were swollen and stuck now open and close with ease. Drawers slide without binging. This unit is worth every penny!

The unit started pulling water out of the air almost as soon as it started up. Runs quietly and with the addition of a drain hose requires no attention.Would like to have had a start_stop timer rather than just a countdown timer but it's no big deal.
