Wouldn't bother with a compressor in this country myself but if you feel then need then this seems good value.

Why?Works fine as long as temp doesnt get very low.Which in a house shouldn't.Also I find the dessicant ones unreliable after only a few months.Slightly noisier on start up compressor though.

Seems a good deal, low energy, only 38db and 2 year warranty.

But "low energy" just means it doesn't extract water as quickly - it says nothing about the efficiency (£ per litre).

I second this, our fancy dessicant one didn't last two years. I've been using a generic Chinese compressor dehumidifier and while it makes lots of noise and can consume 300W on the highest setting, it's lasted at least a good 7 years of use and does the job just fine.

If you have the house at normal temp should be fine, no good for lower temps.

Does his also cool the air temperature, while dehumidfying?
Or does it just suck out the water from the air?

It will raise the air temperature slightly.
We have this model... use it mainly for drying clothes. It really is a good model, we were amazed by how much water is collects in such a short space of time
I'm not sure where this 15C figure comes from, though I've seen it quoted in a number of places. It's interesting that, in this deal, the manufacturer states:
Absorbed humidity (l/24h, 32°C/80%):12
So I'm sure it's efficient at higher temperatures but I'm pretty sure that efficiency decreases with temperature. And at below xC (where x is an arbitrary figure that may or may not be 15C) it becomes inefficient.
Anyway, I use my dessiccant type in areas that are often heated much if at all e.g. the laundry room, a couple of cupboards & my holiday cottages which are unoccupied right now
Heated as this is a good price for a dehumidifier if it's the right type for you.

If your property is 15 degrees or less u need to turn the heating on.:confused:

Why? Perfectly fine if you're not there or if you're asleep.

People use dehumanisers on boats. It can get pretty cold there.

Dehumanisers, lol. I'm not quite sure what to make of that :smile:

I've been looking at this dehumidifier for ages. At this price, I acted quickly & ordered it. It's now sold out. Thank you for posting this on Hot UK Deals.

What's good for a little damp in the loft (gets cold) this type or the other.... Good info here

Yeah, I thought about this myself when thinking about a higher (20l) one which was higher rated energy but would hopefully extract more water/hour. Unfortuneately couldn't find any £/l figures which would have helped so went on wattage/reviews. Like I said, this one, for the price, seemed like a good deal.

The price has gone up a lot though.
There is some debate about the pros & cons of different types but I'm very happy with the one that I got.
