Need to order one really.
I bought the mother a Delonghi a couple of years ago and that seems a good little machine but I wonder if anyone has experience. Hers has an ionizer setting, (Aren't those supposed to kill viruses[!?]
Only for home use, needs to be slimline and tidy. Up to £150 markish.
If anyone has ideas? |  |

I don't want hot air, I want something to counter some damp issue! | |

Not sure if you can get them back in Blighty but I have one of these:

Decent kit with an ionizer built in, will easily dry a room up to about 20 square metres. We had a slight issue with damp in the basement over here in Berlin, this has fixed it. |  | | |

I am looking at yours and mr lettuce's suggestions.
Thanks both. | |

I have literally just been looking at that model on Appliances Direct.
That one's a compressor and not a desiccant and that is what I am now considering, as in which is best for me.
I see they both have pros and cons but haven't gone into any depth.
Edit: I like flat lettuce's but don't see it available immediately here.
Mr Gorm's is a good price and the size is preferable but it is rather ugly.
I like the Electriq but what's it like noise-wise please? [Post edited 7 Dec 2020 14:11]

Yeah I have a DeLonghi DNC65, I couldn't recommend Delonghi more to be honest, I've had it for three years and have never had a problem with it. |  |

Yes I have to say I've been quite pleased with the one I bought before.
Typically just as I was making up my mind you've thrown that back into the mix.
Any thoughts on condenser Vs desiccant?
On brief viewing a condenser seems to be the one more for an indoor environment, (as opposed to a garage etc). [Post edited 7 Dec 2020 14:16]

That's helpful, thanks. I'll have a look.
I feel bad for calling your machine ugly now. | |

Jeera....if the dehumidifier is ever going to be used in a room that's not 20C or above (i.e. not heated at times in winter) you definitely need a desiccant dehumidifier.
Condenser dehumidifiers will not move much moisture in rooms below 20C. However if always heated the condenser will work as effectively as a desiccant tone.
I have this: Ecoair 12L Dehumidifier, DC12, White
It's been superb and going strong after just over 4 years with daily usage in winter. It can be full (12litres) in half a day if we have a lot of moisture.
It has stopped all the damp problems we previously had. |  |
