Advantages: Helps keep humidity to a minimum
Disadvantages: None that I have found yet.

...Ebac have had a good reputation for years for dehumidifiers. I used to have one of their older models a long time ago, and when I researched their products against other brands, I found that the Ebac dehumidifiers won hands down. WHY WOULD SOMEONE WANT A DEHUMIDIFIER ? Did you know that too much dampness in the air of your home can aggravate those illnesses that affect the joints and movement of the human body such as arthritis ? Did you know that if the air is moist in your home, this can increase heating bills because moisture absorbs heat and therefore makes your central heating work harder ? In this day and age where opening windows is not always an option because of the risk of burglary, dampness can actually occur and cause smells to your clothing and upholstery and damage to decoration of the house, such as peeling wallpaper...

Advantages: Works perfectly, Good usable features, Econ mode, Smart Control (Humistat)
Disadvantages: Fan noise

...I have owned an Ebac 2650e for over a month and wanted to give my feedback. I have found the unit to be excellent overall. Performance wise we have gone from having serious condensation on our windows in the morning to have none or very little within one month. Feature wise the 2650e is excellent. There are varying operating modes. All of these are controlled by the SmartControl which regulates the humidity of the room via a humidity sensor. This means you can power the unit on and leave it to do its job. The only intervention you need to make is to empty the water container (I find I need to empty it 1 every 1 or 2 days). As suggested I have left the unit running in normal mode for the first 4 weeks of operation. This is designed to initially normalise the humidity of the house as much as possible. I have now left the unit running... Read review

Advantages: Removes a lot of moisture
Disadvantages: Doesnt remove all moisture

...of the house. Next the big one double-glazing to replace the single glazed windows where the frames were rotted by the constant streams of water from the windows. The improvement was dramatic; the adding of that extra pane of glass meant that the inner pane became warmer and so less prone to condensation forming on it. The cost of double-glazing though is such that many people will not be able to consider this option, and to be fair it didn’t cure the problem only reducing it. Next we were lucky enough to stumble across a machine called a dehumidifier by Ebac a British Company based in the North East of England at Bishops Auckland in County Durham. The machine in question is the Ebac 2000e which are currently on sale at around £199, it does pay to shop about as I have seen them for as much as £225. In Homebase. We actually paid £299...

Advantages: dehumidifies
Disadvantages: it is hard to spell 'dehumidifies'

...I am refering to the 2650e model in the 2600 series What is a dehumidifier? A dehumidifier does what it is called, it dehumidifies. It is opposite from a humidifier (a more type friendly word), a humidifier puts moisture back into the atmosphere whereas a dehumidifier takes moisture away from the air. I would not think using a humidifier and dehumidifier together would be a good idea (you won’t make a difference apart from raising electricity costs). What are the benefits of a dehumidifier? It can take care of damp and mould matters. Removes moisture from the air that can cause health problems such as arthritis and rheumatism. Where does moisture in the air come from? Washing dishes The washing being hung up Showering Outdoor moisture What benefits does the ebac dehumidifier offer? Reduce pollen in atmosphere, helps with asthma... Read review
