Delonghi DEM 10

Advantages: Efficient
Disadvantages: None

Our large, four bedroom house is over 200 years old and therefore has no cavity walls to insulate. After a cold and damp 2008 summer we were suffering from condensation and mould problems in spite of extractor fans in both kitchen and bathroom. Time to dehumidify! We bought our DEM 10 at Curry's for £99.99. It is compact, easily moved with a fold-out top carry handle and absolutely idiot proof in use. The level of humidity that the unit will pull ...
...of the housing and there is a full tank warning light. The water tank is transparent so that the water level can be seen at a glance and the tank is so easy to remove for emptying - and, more importantly, to replace. Try some of the competition! A length of polythene hose is supplied to enable continuous draining should you want to leave the unit operating while you are away from home for a few days. The motor is very quiet in a daytime context ...

Delonghi De Humidifier

Advantages: Easy to move around rooms and easy to use
Disadvantages: Some people find it too noisey but I don't mind

I bought this primarily for the Bathroom as I don't have an extractor fan and I though this would be a good idea to remove the excess water. Yes I know you arent meant to use in a bathroom, but the plug is out in the hall so it's fairley safe! Good features such as an automatic switch off if you forget to switch it off, so at lease you know it won't overflow. Also it has a clear front cover so you can see then it is almost full so you can empty ...
...link it via a hose to allow the water to fully drain out so there is no need to empty as it does this via the hose - just remember to leave the hose in a sink - I think it is far easier to just empty it. It does make a noise but no more than I would expect from this type of product. Easy to move around the house for different rooms. I would advise that you dont leave it on Linoleum floors for too long as the base leaves imprints. Very easy to ...

De'Longhi in the house

Advantages: auto stop and humidistat function
Disadvantages: instructions could have been more in depth

We have been having ongoing problems at our flat for the last few months and have found mould growth to be a serious problem. We were advised to put in a dehumidifier to hopefully be a solution to the dampness in the flat and stop mould from growing any further so I researched into dehumidifiers (honestly, I had no idea what they were or what they did), and finally narrowed it down to a few models from the Argos catalogue. De'Longhi was our first ...
...I researched into all the models, prices, manufacturers' websites and read soooo many reviews. I was amazed at how much information there was to learn and understand about dehumidifiers and how they can benefit you. Why do we get mould? It simply starts with condensation. We can be adding approximately 20pints of moisture into the air by our daily routine. This could be from cooking, bathing, washing and even breathing. Condensation occurs when ...

Review of Delonghi DEC 180 E

The Robot Water Removal Machine

Advantages: Prevents Damp, Mould and Humidity
Disadvantages: A little noisy and quite large, looks like a robot

...de-humidifiers I found one from Delonghi which I have found to be a trusted brand in the past for £169 (a lot less than the £1000 quoted for damp proofing!) This product claimed to prevent excess window condensation and damp, reduce mould and indoor humidity whilst also reducing odour so I thought why not?? I went in to my local Argos and bought the Delonghi DEC10 de-humidifier the first thing I noticed was how heavy it was as I do not have a car ...
...the back with a Delonghi helpline number - whilst I have never used the number I have used the trouble shoot guide - as I found when you lift the product with the integrated carry handle if you drop it suddenly the product will have a red light appear on the top and stop working. I found this could be easily solved by unplugging and re-plugging in again. There is a min to max control too but I keep mine on max all the time - a slight hot air comes ...

Review of Delonghi DEC 10

There's nothing humid about these!

Advantages: Small and portable easy to operate.
Disadvantages: You are only able to charge one at a time.

In a previous rented house that I lived in a few years ago I was a bit of a hoarder and kept anything and everything, each room was filled with all my “needed” possessions and I had things crammed down beside my wardrobe and all the corners of my rooms were filled. I was always a clean person and my home did look clean just a little lived in. The landlord wanted to sell the house so we had to start packing our things up, this was when we noticed ...
...time and had not been used had become mouldy! I was disgusted and couldn't believe it. A lot of things had been destroyed from mould and they had to be binned, and even things that could have been cleaned I really couldn't keep them after finding them covered in mould. A lot of things were kept from my childhood as I never liked to get rid of anything. When we moved the furniture there was also mould on the walls which we would have never known was ...
