    Best out there
    This is my second Meaco 20L dehumidifier. It really is amazing. Extraction performance is unbelievable and energy consumption is extremely low. I do not think that there is anything else out there in the market which comes close.

    For such a small machine. I live in an old flat that smells moldy and I live with a furry cat. After leaving this on for a few hours on the first try, our flat is smelling and feeling much nicer!

    a bit noisy
    a bit noisy, the function of dehumidification is not very well, the water tank is a bit difficult to remove.

    I am impressed. You can really tell the difference around the house after plugging this in. Doesn’t smell damp any more. Does the job nicely. Highly recommend

    Does the job brilliantly!
    This is outstanding. It works perfectly. I switch it only at night and use the timer function and let it run for a few hours and it shuts off automatically. It collects tankful of water in 2-3 days of running a few hours everyday. I have not had the issue of condensation on the windows or mould issue since we bought this. So very happy with the purchase!

    Totally effective.
    Really happy with this product, it reduces the dampness in the air very speedily. When drying washing it really accelerates the drying process. I can completely recommend this item.
    My only regret is I should have purchased the 20 litre instead of the 12 litre as the water tank fills quite quickly.

    This thing is amazing!
    Bought this 20l dehumidifier on 16 Feb 2022. This thing really is set-and-forget. From from 16th Feb until today 2nd May, it has extracted ~520 litres of water. We live in a 3 bed mid terrace house. Set the dehumidifier at 55%. Very handy – the house is clearly dryer and washing dries faster. Great piece of ki

    Excellent service
    This is a great little dehumidifier, it’s more efficient than my previous dehumidifier . I’d also read on some reviews, regarding the Meaco 20L Low Energy noise level, to be honest, it’s absolutely fine, very quiet. The slight noise it does make soon fades into the back ground

    Bit noisy but reduced the humidity in pur 4 bed almost immediately. We were always waking up to wet windows but that has been totally eradicated. Not sure how much we will use it this winter with rising energy prices but it does exactly what it says on the tin, great appliance.

    It’s fine working but …..
    I’ve had this now 7 months it works perfectly for humility and cleans the air for any allergy sufferers . Only think am having a issue with is the dirty it gets like a black dust in the water tank and inside parts of the Humidifier that you can’t clean or it’s hard to clean . My water tank is black inside and am struggling to clean it . That’s the only issue I have

    The product so far is great. My clothes dry very quickly overnight. The energy efficiency. Not sure yet.
    The noise is similar to my old one. Hence. Ok with it.
    The movement of the wheels are great. Flow freely.
    The water tank is big and love it. No need to change that often.
    This is after 4 weeks of buying the product.

    My best ever buy.
    I bought this product for a country house I am fortunate enough to own. Last year I had a burst back boiler. Because of the Covid restrictions, I was unable to use the place as often as I could have.
    This year I decided to get more use of the house but was afraid of the underlying damp and a very wet winter. I bought the Maeco and put it to use. I was astounded at how much water I removed.
    A brilliant buy.

    Amazing
    Two months in and this dehumidifier has made such a difference! We use it in the bathroom after a shower, as well as in the main part of the house, because it’s so much more efficient than leaving the extractor unit on; nowhere near water of course!
    We live in a very old property which had been empty for a year. A few days of this in place and the house feels so much better. The air purifying mode is also very effective.

    Efficie
    I bought this product from Amazon only a few weeks ago. It arrived fast and put it to use straight away. We use it normally for drying laundry especially in the winter months. It is early in its career to be able to review reliably the energy usage but regarding its operation as a dehumidifier so far it seems to be extremely efficient with great water capacity and a variety of settings to suit sufficiently many situations. It is also easy to move around the home.

    We are very pleased and would highly recommend It.

    Low running cos
    We now have two of these. They work well, are not too noisy and include Hepa filter. The best feature is the low energy use making them the cheapest to run dehumidifiers that I could find.
    Work well and reasonable price. Good quality and reliable. The 1st unit has been in daily use for 3 years.

    It's the bees knees
    If you’re looking for a dehumidifier then you won’t be disappointed with this one. I’ve had a few over the years but this is by far the quietest and most energy saving. Takes moisture from the air just like any other comparable model. Easy to manoeuvre as it is on wheels.

    Wow ! Fantastic in every way
    This dehumidifier arrived very quickly with no fuss. I just had to take it out of the box and plug it in, it was as easy as that! The instructions are clear and simple. It looks good, and is easy to move with its sturdy handle. It is very quiet. After an hour in front of my washing on my airer, I emptied a litre of water from the no-fuss container. I am thrilled with it. It is very good value at under 200 for the large model.

    Great dehumidifie
    I bought a dehumidifier due to condensation and drying clothes indoors and the Meaco has helped so much! My clothes dry quicker and clears any moisture on windows. It is a little heavy if you want to move it around but not a major issue. Noise level is only noticeable at night if in the same room as me when sleeping. Would definitely recommend this dehumidifier!

    Build quality
    As the headline states, the build quality of this machine is outstanding. I must have had it for well over a year now if not longer and it is always running, I use it for drying clothes as well. Extremely reliable piece of kit, I can recommend this product to anyone.

    Drys the house out!
    I was skeptical about any dehumidifier after using some smaller cheap ones. Went all in. No regrets. This machine has changed our house! It’s removed and keeps removing so much monsters. House smells better and feels so dry and ‘cosy’. The warmth from the heating stays so much longer. No condensation on the windows or the cold spots anymore! I would even contemplate getting a second to keep one upstairs and one downstairs. I genially was shocked how much water it pulled out the house, especially at the start of using it.

    we have high moisture levels on our thermometer and we have both been suffering with coughs and sneezes for awhile and could not seem to shift permanently. I then researched and bought this model because it has the air purifer in it as i do suffer with allergies . I can not tell how much energy it is using. I ran it for 2 days 24/7 in the bedroom and in the evening had to place it in the hallway.
    The noise level does not bother me in the least but my husbands hearing is very sensitive and as sharp as a pin and I knew it would bother him although we have not tried it. It has collected alot of water so far and we are both very pleased with this purchase.

    Quietly effective
    This dehumidifier has made a big difference within the first few weeks, no more waking up to condensation on the windows. Works really well & it’s easy to move around because of the handle. Very quiet when operating. So far the water compartment needs to be emptied once or twice a day. An upgrade on our previous Ebac dehumidifier which broke down after almost 8 years. Haven’t tried the HEPA filter as it makes the dehumidifier less effective & efficient and the air that comes out without the HEPA filter is fine.

    Best I've tried
    Have tried other dehumidifiers (cheaper) but have all started to leak after 2-3 months, this one so far, so good. Like the fact has about double the capacity of previous units, means have to empty every other day as opposed to once a day but is a bit weighty when removing and pouring could do with a better design.
    Tip: Turn machine OFF before removing/emptying water container otherwise tends to drip if left on. Once emptied and container replaced, turn back on. Overall, this machine feels more substantial than previous and so far performs well hence ‘Best I’ve Tried’.

    Worth the money!!
    Usually I don’t like writing reviews, However this product is absolutely worth it. I wish I was educated about it before. It definitely made a difference from the first day and helps me to keep my house walls dry and clean from damp as of course with your own regular maintenance at least once every two weeks. Worth every pound !!

    Noise isn’t very loud, but I wouldn’t use it while watching a film or need to talk lol amazing useful produc
