Easily remove excess moisture from the air with this mini dehumidifier. The unit not only helps allergy sufferers breathe easier, it also helps prevent problems often caused by excess humidity--peeling paint, damaged wood, and mold growth. The dehumidifier uses Peltier (thermo-electric) technology, which means whisper-quiet operation with no noisy compressor, vibration, or refrigerant to deal with. Water collects in the 2-liter transparent water tank, and the unit automatically switches off when the water tank needs to be emptied. Its compact size makes it a nice choice for in a nursery, small bedroom, closet, cupboard, or under a sink. Other highlights include "power" and "full tank" indicator lights, a 12-volt DC adaptor (UL listed), and a convenient carrying handle for simple transport. The 60-watt mini dehumidifier weighs about 3-1/2 pounds and measures 8 by 5 by 13 inches.
please pass on this one I bought this through Target--their reviews said it was great! It seemed to dehumidify, although slowly. However, I was concerned that the "brick" on the AC cord was hot, so hot that I couldn't hold it for more than a few seconds. I found out online that such a problem could be a fire hazard! I called the company, Sunpentown, and they mailed out another cord with the instructions that if this one was also abnormally hot (which it was), I should mail the whole unit back (which I did). Sounds like they've had this problem more than once before. The replacement unit also has a really hot cord. So I suppose this merry-go-round will continue until they hopefully refund my money. TOTALLY WORTHLESS! This product is totally worthless. I ran this for five days and it only collected about 1 ounce of water. And I had 55% humidity in my house! It is worthless. I had it in a tiny room and it didn't drop the humidity 1%. It is also very loud and the AC block gets super hot. A sure sign of a worthless poorly made piece of junk. The worse part is, I ordered it here on Amazon, but some other company shipped it to me. Now Amazon won't give me a refund. They say to email them and they will set up a procedure for you to return the item. I have e-mail twice over the past three days and nothing! I needed a dehumidifier for making screens for screen printing on t-shirts. I went to Lowes and bought a small $150 unit. In a few hours the humidity in the room dropped from over 50 to the low 40's and it had collected about eight ounces. Take my advice. Buying a $50 humidifier was a huge mistake and a waste of time. I will seriously think twice about ever ordering from amazon.com. Call me old fashion but I think I should be able to return a product to the store(in this case website) I bought it from. Imagine buying something from Lowes that is defective, then when you try to return it they say. Oh you can't return that here. You have to return it to Joe's Hardware! I would give this product and Amazon.com negative stars if I could. Power cord issues The unit worked ok until the plug melted. The part of the plug that connects to the unit got so hot it melted the plastic. Major fire hazard. I am going to see if I can get a refund.
