Midea 3,000 Sq. Ft. Dehumidifier for Basement, With Reusable Air Filter 35 Pint - Ideal For Basements, Large & Medium Sized Rooms, And Bathrooms (White)

I purchased the 3000 Sq model back in March of 2021. I live in Florida and this dehumidifier has been running non-stop ever since. The humidity for most of the year is over 95%. This think has been keeping the humidity down around 40% to 45%. I run my A/C at 80 degrees, where I am comfortable. Due to the amount of water this dehumidifier pulls out of the air does require dumping the reservoir several times a day. In the rainy season, I have had to empty the tank at least three to four times a day, due to 100% humidity. The rest of the year is at least two times a day. I have read s9me of the reviews about this thing beeping when the tank is full at night, when people are sleeping. I solved that by emptying the tank before going to bed, then again when I get up, regardless if the tank is full or not. This makes the house much more comfortable with lower humidity. The other think is how it has held up, it has been running 24 hour a day, seven days a week for the past three years. That is almost 26,000 running hours without any issues, so far. As far as electrical use, it has had no effect on my electic bill. I think it is allowing my central A/C to run better because the A/C condenser is not getting all gummed up with very humid air going through it. Allowing it to run more efficiently. This could be off setting the cost to run the dehumidifier. As far as the sound, it is more lik3 white noise. My A/C makes more noise that this dehumidifier. I only here it when thexA/C turns off. I do know that I am able to run the A/C less because the less humid air feels cool. When we have 70 degree temperatures with 100% humidity, I was running the A/C to lower the humidity, not the temperature. Now the dehumidifier is doing that job. The only thing is, it does not have a pump to pump the water into sink or tub to drain. Even the larger model only empties the tank into a floor drain. It will not pump vertical for a few feet. If Midea made one that would/could pump the water a few feet vertically (not their cube model), I would buy it. Over all, I would buy this one again 1) because of how well it has held up 2) How well it does its job of removing the humidity.

Outstanding dehumidifier. Previous to this dehumidifier, I needed to use 2 dehumidifiers for the space and even with 2 dehumidifiers running it was difficult to keep my basement dry enough to store books. This dehumidifier works perfectly and has been maintaining the basement humidity level at 39-40% without the aid of a second dehumidifier. One note of caution: I originally thought the dehumidifier was defective because I could not get it to drain via a hose. I called customer support and was told that they do not provide support for dehumidifiers and that I should return it to Amazon as defective. After thinking about the problem I wondered if the cause of nondraining via the hose was because the angle of the hose was not enough. So I raised the dehumidifier off the floor by 2 inches (placed the dehumidifier on 2 paving stones) and that solved the problem. If you can't get it to drain via the hose connection, try raising it off the floor. A second note is this: The wifi app (SmartHome) is a very limited app and I found it useless. (I also had trouble finding the button I needed to press to activate the wifi on the dehumidifier; on this model you need to press and hold the Filter button to activate the dehumidifier's wifi.) I ended up removing the app from my mobile. I would suggest ignoring the wifi capabilities.

3000 Square foot coverage. White. Our house in the summer is extremely damp. We have french drains all around outside our home. Our HVAC company suggested a dehumidifier be installed but the cost was ridiculously high. We originally thought we would try this to see if it helped and then have one put in but this was relatively inexpensive and pulls 2-3 gallons daily when it’s rainy or there is high humidity outside. If we relied on our air conditioning to remove the humidity from our home it would be running constantly and we would freeze In our own home in the summer. This is very energy efficient, works great, very durable, not too big as to be a problem placing it somewhere and easy to move on the 4 wheels. It is a little noisy but after two years I don’t even notice it anymore. The filter is easy to access and clean. Easy to remove and dump the fill section. I purchased a hose and when we are gone overnight I move the dehumidifier closer to my walk-in shower so it can continuously drain. We have had so much rain this year that I decided to get a second unit to place on the other side of the house. We have an 85 years old home-it’s not an open floor plan, so the first humidifier needs a little bit of a helper this year. It is still pulling the same amount of water as it always has. The current unit arrived quickly and in great shape so I would also expect the one I order today (Saturday) to arrive on time Monday. Well worth the price-I definitely recommend this dehumidifier.

We had to replace a "Gree" model that was recalled so we got this one. It works very well. The wi-fi function is okay. The timer feature is nice. But....it loses a start because the discharge is to the side rather than out the top. It doesn't work well for us coming out the side. So, beware...if you need a top discharge unit keep lookin'... But, other than that it works good.

I bought this Midea 3000 sq ft dehumidifier because I had mold on my window frames and ice buildup on the windows during winter. I placed it in the washroom, and it works very well. It collected a full bucket of water in just three days. The noise level is acceptable and not too loud. I also like the timer feature. I usually set it to run for 2 hours after showering. After using it, the moisture problem is much better, the washroom feels comfortable, and there is no more ice on the window frames. Very happy with this purchase and highly recommended.

Bought this 35 pint dehumidifier to remove moisture from one of our bedroom windows. After a month of use, I have to say it does an excellent job of preventing condensation on the windows. Emptying the container of water accumulated is simple and easy. The unit is sleek and modern and the controls are very intuitive. It doesn't come with a remote but you can download an app to your tablet or phone. The app will do simple on/off functions and humidity levels but what I really like is that you can set up schedules for when you want the dehumidifier on and off. However, I have to knock off one star for the noise level. In the description, it says it's "refrigerator quiet". Don't know what refrigerator it's comparing it to but I can definitely notice the noise, especially if I'm trying to sleep in the bedroom. My workaround is to use the app and set-up schedules for when I'm not sleeping in the bedroom. Overall, still happy with my purchase because it collects a lot of moisture.

Does a great job removing the moisture. Is louder than my past dehumidifier.

I live in a 3 bedroom apartment with central air though it’s not very efficient. With all the heat and rain so far this summer, the humidity inside my condo is uncomfortably high, often around 60% or a bit higher. Because high rises have positive pressure in the hallways (provided by outside air pumped in) and negative pressure in the apartments, there is always some amount of air ingress around my entrance door from the hallway. Because of this, humidity from the hallway is always being added to the air in my condo. The Midea dehumidifier manages to get the humidity in my condo down to the low 50s. This is enough to make it more comfortable. I set the dehumidifier at 45 and it runs nonstop. I have to empty it twice a day. It is noisy. Do not believe the advertising that says it’s as quiet as a refrigerator. I don’t view my refrigerator as being particularly quiet and I can’t hear it running over the noise of the dehumidifier. I don’t think the dehumidifier fan is quite as noisy as others I always used to have in the basement of my house but it does have that high pitched hum that all dehumidifiers seem to have. It’s also quite heavy to remove from the package. I’m a senior and live alone so was forced to lay the box on its side to get it out despite all the warnings not to. The instructions said to leave it upright for two hours before using if it had been on its side. I left it twelve hours just to be safe. Once it’s upright, it’s quite easy to move around on the wheels.

Great value, exactly as described
