Frigidaire 70 Pt. Dehumidifier great deal for the $$$$, September 10, 2011 – By Chris R. Bormann

I have only owned this Dehumidifier for a few days, but it does exactly what it was needed to do. I have a crawlspace under my kitchen and living room that is always damp. But Hurricane Irene just passed through and the air just reeked of dampness.

I was sold on this product after seeing another customers video review. I unpacked it from the box and it was ready to use in less than a minute. I only had to remove some protective tape and snap the shut-off float into position. It takes just over 4 hours to completely fill the container. (I will eventually connect a drain hose.) There is a window on the front with a red floating ball to confirm what the water level is without having to open up the container. I was happy to find that the container is front loaded and has a single carrying handle for spill-free handling, unlike the rear loaded type my parents have from 20 years ago. Also the unit has a pop-up carrying handle which is a nice feature for carrying it to the basement. I also liked that the blower discharge was from the top of the unit for better air circulation. By coincidence I had to install a dehumidifier and wire an outlet for a client today. They bought a Kenmore 70 pint dehumidifier from SEARS. They wouldn’t tell me what they paid for it, all they would say was that it was more money. So, of course I looked it up online when I got home. The SEARS Kenmore unit was $249.99 plus 6% tax. My Frigidaire unit through Amazon.com was $188.00 with free shipping and no tax. The Kenmore unit did not have a carrying handle on top or have the water level window and ball, and the blower discharge was out of the back of the unit.

Nicely Surprised!, September 9, 2011 – By Jason

I have never owned a dehumidifier before (My parents had them in the basement as a kid up north) but living in SW Florida I was tired of the house always feeling “muggy” even with the A/C on and having to run our bedroom ceiling fan all the time to stay cool. Since having this unit on each night, we all wake up in the morning with the covers and blankets over us despite not changing the temerature setting in our house from 78 deg.

The Frigidaire unit is supper easy to use. It’s easy to dump when full (has a nice handle on the container bucket and slides in and out of the main unit with ease) It has an alarm beeps 3 times and then it automatically shuts off the unit(Make sure it’s empty before running all night or it might be full at 3:00 AM and then beep loudly) It’s easy to clean the filter when needed and it’s easy to move the Frigidaire around with it’s wheels and handle. The unit is not very loud at all and now my kids like it’s sound to sleep by.

I run the Frigidaire about 12-15 hours and day and so far (6 weeks) it is doing great. I would certainly recommend this model to anyone looking for a home dehumidifier. The price was very good at under $200.00 and free shipping from Amazon. I have not yet tried hooking a hose up to it for continuous use yet. I just dump it when it’s full.

I only wish I would have purchased it sooner.
