First, let me talk about the unacceptable media markt that didn't know for 10 days which courier they had sent it with, and after 12 phone calls and 4 emails, I barely managed to find it a day before it was supposed to be returned and had to go pick it up from there...
As for the honneywell, I have to say that it seems to have a very good quality construction and the plastic parts are very good as well. I was generally skeptical about getting a dehumidifier with a compressor due to the many complaints about excessive noise, vibrations, synchronization, etc. Not for this specific model, but generally for all compressors. Regarding this, I have to say that I only hear the fan. At first, with all the things I read, I thought the compressor wasn't working and couldn't be heard. No... it's just quiet and there were no vibrations or plastic rattling, etc. Of course, at the highest setting, the fan can be heard like an air conditioner or a regular fan at its medium setting.
Now, as for performance, it's a 24-liter dehumidifier and the house doesn't have much humidity these days, so it quickly brought it down from 60% to the 50% I had set. We'll see how it performs with the rain, etc., but it's very powerful considering the time it took to bring down that percentage.
The positives are the front display showing the actual humidity percentage at a glance. Also, the fact that you simply choose the desired percentage and the compressor shuts off once it reaches it, unlike many others that don't have this capability.
The float, of course, stops when the tank is full and gives an audible warning, as well as a reminder to clean the filter when it gets dirty.
There's also the option of continuous operation regardless of the humidity percentage.
The power consumption didn't exceed 290-300 watts in full operation, and as I mentioned before, the quality construction and the fact that it has wheels for easy transportation.
The negatives are that it doesn't have an ionizer, although my air conditioners have them, so it doesn't bother me, and the fact that it has a basic filter. It doesn't need replacement, of course, but I would have liked it to have a real air filter, preferably HEPA.
The price I bought it for, 125 euros, is simply the best in terms of performance and construction quality that anyone could find.
