The best dehumidifiers will help homes to effectively get rid off damp and condensation that can build up during the winter season.
You might think that you need to spend quite a bit of money on one for good results, but Amazon is offering a few at affordable prices. In fact, one £32.99 option has shoppers saying they “can’t believe” how much water it collects.
The Pro Breeze 500ml Dehumidifier might be small, but it yields mighty results. With its “portable” and “lightweight” design, it can be easily placed in any room where you notice an increase in moisture during the colder months.
The easy-to-remove 500ml capacity water tank is said to “remove up to 250ml of water a day”, effectively improving air quality and reducing the potential for more major concerns such as black mould to form.
An auto shut-off function feature means you don’t need to worry about it over-filling, while thermo-electric technology ensures a “whisper quiet” operation. It’s also an energy saving, with a description claiming that it has a “running cost as low as 1p per hour”.
On Amazon, the Pro Breeze Dehumidifier has managed to amass an impressive four out of five star rating based on 34,000 global reviews, with users saying it “soaks like a sponge” to “banish” the likes of damp and condensation.
One delighted customer wrote: “Virtually silent, compact, sucks up water like a sponge. Used in bathroom with no window. It is fantastic cannot recommend it highly enough. Virtually silent, nice and compact but really sucks the water up.”
A second five-star review read: “Banish damp and mould with this little beauty! A great bit of electronics, good to look at, plug it in & you’re ready to go, a quiet little hum & it collects the damp you don’t need! Highly recommended!”
Someone else wrote: “Absolutely brilliant. I have an old victorian house which suffers with condensation. As it is single brick walls, no insulation, we suffer with damp on exterior walls exposed to the elements.
“We turned one of the small rooms into wardrobe, this little tool keeps moisture out! No more damp wall and clothes stay dry. YAY. Good price and worth every penny.”

While a fourth praised: “This is the second dehumidifier I have brought as they are so good. It’s amazing how much water it collects. Stops the mould growing and it’s very cheap to run.”
Some reviews suggest that the dehumidifier is better suited to small areas, as one thee-star review read: “It appears to collect water so can’t deny it’s having some impact but the differences to laundry drying times and kitchen condensation is minimal.”
