As you can see from the state of mould in my daughter's room, I needed a dehumidifier, fast. And better than fixing the room properly, I wanted the cheapest, sorry... best value dehumidifier out there. UPDATE: Been using Silentnight Dehumidifier for a while and it's fantastic. Captures a lot of water for us - half a container per few days!
It sounds like a small fan so we don't run it at night - mostly only during the day.
MORE OF AN UPDATE: Thanks for your kind suggestions in the comments, it was a small piece of loft insulation missing directly above the patch, which made that part of the ceiling the coldest part of the room. All fixed now.
IT'S 70 WATTS.
I also show a small dehumidifier too - the ProBreeze which is really good too.
Not quite as powerful but can be run at night for sound.

3:55 How to use a humidifier: how to empty the water
Thanks for the video mate, appreciate you taking the time to do the review.
Im currently having the same issue with our house in several rooms, moisture on the walls and ceiling and honestly no idea what to do about it other than using a dehumidifier.
So again, this helps me out.
Cheers
Kris
Thanks for the kind message Kris -- good luck
In the case of the patch - turns out it was a tiny bit of insulation missing in the loft above - so it was the coldest part of the room. Anyway, thanks again
I have one of these since 3yrs...I use it in the room whilst drying clothes its great takes out a lot of moisture and clothes dry quickly without any condensation on windows.
Thanks for the kind comment Bladegirlvix!
Came for the review
Got the best funkadelic music I have heard in a while!
Haha thanks StreetSoulLover!
Enjoyed this review cheers mate made me chuckle
haha thanks user 001!
Good stuff I've just bought this hope it's good
Thanks for the review. Hope that bedroom mould patch is history by now. 👍
Thanks for the kind comment station plaza, I appreciate it.
3 years on now and it's not come back!
@@DADDELIVERS Good to hear! I just might get one now. All the best.
I have this one under the Addis brand it's quite good to keep the condensation at bay had it about 4 years x
Ah thanks Dean - same here, its still going strong! Appreciate the kind comment!
Getting one of this
Mould can pose severe health risks so I'm glad you relented and got a dehumidifier!
Thanks Doctor Bag - appreciate the kind message
The mould is being caused due to thermal bridging id say? Bet if u went up into ur attic ud find that the insulation is pulled back between the joists. The mould is in the shape and rough sizing of the space between the joists. My best guess anyway. Good luck with it!
Hi Murtagh7484
Thanks for the very kind comment and yes, you're absolutely right - there was some insulation missing exactly above the patch!
Put some in and it's not come back.
It's everywhere else in the house but not here thankfully.
Thanks again for the great message, I appreciate it
Good to know
Thanks Chandu!
Great video! How do you find this now?? I love the slimline design but the mixed reviews on Amazon are a bit of a turn off
Thanks for the kind comment Erica! We're still using it, what 3 years on!
It's a very basic unit, but the bigger/more expensive ones are too much for what we need, so totally happy with this. Hope this helps, and good luck!
Looks like a cold patch on the ceiling, maybe loft insulation is not covering that part of the ceiling or a draft from the window, therefor the dew point is lower there. Strange how it’s only in that one patch, did you ever fix the problem at source, if so what was causing it?
Thanks for the kind comment Paul - it was exactly as you diagnosed.
In the loft there was a tiny patch between the rafters where there was no insulation, with insulation either side! Put a bit of insulation in and it thankfully hasn't come back... though it's just appearing in all the other cold places in the house!
Thanks again
You said and explained everything except how much power in Watts does this thing take. Thank you for the video anyway
Thanks for the kind comment - I've had a look at the label on the bottom and it's 70W. Hope this helps
Hi, could you tell me what wattage the dehumidifier is and how much it costs per hour to run please?
Hi, it's 70 Watts.
Forgive me, I have no idea what electric tariff you're on but hope the 70W is useful.
Thanks for the kind question
So this bigger one collection more water than the pro breeze ?
Hi Dimitris thanks for the kind question: yes it collects a lot more than the probreeze
Hope this helps!
Would be nice to see how the RH goes down using it over a few hours. I suspect very little. Worth buying a more efficient one as we know it’s cheaper to heat drier rooms.
yes at least a 10l dehumidifier.these small ones are good for caravan size room only.
How is the dehumidifier? Will is work OK in a bathroom?
Hi David, thanks for the kind question - we're still using it! Though I probably wouldnt use in in a bathroom because I'd have to run a power lead in to make it work, though could probably do with something in there. We tried unpowered ones that use tablets but they were a complete pain and quite expensive!
The Uninvited and unwanted gues - Molds
great video! though currently this is priced at £63! hiping there are cheaper alternatives available which can be just as good.
Hi Bhavisha!
Thanks for the v kind comment and ouch! Thanks for letting me know, wow that's an increase. Wonder if it's gone up because it's inflation, or dehumidifier season, or ready to fall for an upcoming promotion....
The much smaller one which is linked in the description has also helped and taken out quite a bit of water... I've only tried the non electrical ones and they were absolutely useless.
I've also tried using a big plastic storage box or bucket with a tonne of salt in it which is really effective, but looks terrible and makes a mess if it's knocked over!
Sorry I can't be more help, would love to know if you find anything else out there.
Thanks again
@@DADDELIVERS I checked out the smaller one you mentioned and those that particular one plus similar models are priced at 30-35 ish at the moment. I wonder how long this crazy inflation is going to last. its getting ridiculous day by day it seems. I tried the non electrical ones but they are such a waste of money, though at the moment they are my something better than nothing. lol. Will definitely let you know if I find anything else on the market on any deals or something. Thank you though for this video. if the prices ever go down, I know which one to buy! Thanks :)
@@bhavishapatel905 Thanks - fingers crossed for Black Friday!
I think I accidentally kicked over all the tablet ones and got permanent blue liquid stains on each of our carpets.
Can't go back to that!
its £45 lidl next sunday
@@jess7Lin Thanks Jess!!
Name of mould patch? How about Mark.
Nice- thanks!
Do these humidifiers have filters you can clean similar to a vacuum cleaner?
Hi Mike
Thanks for the kind question - my two do not have a filter, but the intake grilles do accumulate dust and fluff over a period of 6 months or so, so I have to clean those out with a brush or toothpick!
Hope this helps
You need to spend a bit more to get a decent one, the small ones are just toys! An Ecoair will set you back £150-£200 and would do a far better job. Meaco also have some decent desiccant models or you could get a compressor style one instead.
Thanks Paul
Yeah, this took less water out the house in 2 days than just taking a pee
Yes but so not to leave people thinking that desiccant models are on par with compressor style ones, it is important to point out they are designed for different scenarios. Desiccant dehumidifiers are designed to be used in low temperature environments, typically up to a maximum 20°C, compared to compressor style units which need a minimum average temperature of 20°C before they will start working.
I agree though that it would be far more efficient to purchase a larger unit and run it from a central point in the home, like a landing, and for all rooms to have their doors open to allow adequate air flow. Personally I am waiting for the Meaco units to come back into stock as my last unit gave out after 20 years of use and the new models are even more efficient than the old models.
@@thebearsschitzoidmind9707 I don't know this brand but we have one very similar and it seems to be neither compressor nor desiccant. It seems to work by blowing air over a large heat sink..
Wait, it collects that little water in 2 days? A decent model will collect *litres* from my flat every day.
Thanks
What Dehumidifier is this please? The one that you have mentioned, that collects litres of water from your flat every day.
@@Marina__D As far as I could see the Meaco Arete One 20L is one of the best dehumidifiers right now. Unfortunately in the UK it's out of stock everywhere, so I ended up buying a Meaco DD8L dessiccant dehumidifier. It still works great, but definitely consumes more electricity than the Arete One would. Although the one I bought (DD8L) has the nice side effect of providing some heat to the room too, which in my case is a nice welcome.
Paint that mould with white oil based undercoat. Good bye mould!!!!
Thanks for the kind tip Addzyboy Tothill!
New name. Mouldylocks
Haha - brilliant - thanks!
£106 on Amazon now.
Ouch - thanks for the update.
I'm looking at bigger dehumidifiers for a video, and they're all sold out!
Wonder if they jack up the price when there's a shortage...
Anyway, thanks again for the kind message.
Try lightly spraying the ceiling with clorex cleaner+bleach in the green sprayer bottle. Be sure to lay down something like plastic sheeting underneath because the mild bleach droplets will discolor some fabrics. No more pet mold on the ceiling.
Thanks for the kind comment, I really appreciate it. We're now using Milton sterilizing fluid with a cloth on other places and it doesn't seem to come back.
Drip Drop code name
Yes! Haha, thanks!
I bought one of these lasted only three weeks now in the bin, a waste of money pay a bit more and get a proper one

Haha thanks Robert - perfect!
My house is basically a rainforest, mould, damp, wet. Misery.
Call your dehumidifier misty
Haha thanks - that's beautiful!
Thanks again for the kind comment
Buy a refrigerant de-humidifier.
Thanks - I'll try this.
Splodge - definitely male!!
Haha - thanks Rachel, perfect!!
Name for your mould, "Mr Health hazard"

Get a ladder your self and get up and look at your roof your self, your probably missing tiles.
Four minutes into the video, and they still haven’t talked about the dehumidifier
Thank you for letting me know that this video isn't for you.
Came for a review, switched off after 3mins… ANNOYING!!!!!
Thanks Paul
