If you’ve ever used the words musty, muggy, dank, fuggy, wet, mildewy, or the dreaded moist to describe the air in your home, you may get relief from a dehumidifier.
We say may because, though dehumidifiers do measurably dry the air, they have also long suffered from a shocking rate of mechanical failure. The problem spans multiple brands and years of testing (although we’re cautiously hopeful after the first couple of years with the Midea Cube and its innovative design, and we’ve added a brief guide to reliable, repairable commercial-grade dehumidifiers). With any dehumidifier, we also suggest addressing the causes of moisture-infiltration issues to improve your odds of long-term success.
