Ebac3850e Most Powerful 21 Litre Dehumidifier for Condensation, Damp and Mould with Smart Auto-Function, ​Air Purification and Laundry Drying Modes, Free 2 Year Warranty, White

Has worked like a dream since we bought it in 2016. It's amazing how much water it pulls out of the air/house from smart mode.A 4bed semi in NW England; placed in empty front main bedroom. On first use in Oct 2016 was on for two days straight (needed emptying three times), then it went into standby and only came on occasionally through the week. Kept us moisture free the whole winter.Now a year later, it's on its second winter with us. House heats up more quickly with moisture gone and strips of condensation at bottom of windows all over the house are largely eradicated, even with this static upstairs. This autumn we've started using the laundry drying mode and closing it in a room with damp washing. Again, works a treat.Hard to find any negative aspects. Recessed fingerholes for carrying are a bit shallow. Noise wise you could sleep with it on, but you're definately going to hear it if you're in the same room. It works so well we have to empty it every two days, but it has a cutout and warning light. Obv you could plumb it in to a drain too.Track prices as we got a good Amazon deal and only paid about £145 including delivery.MAY 2020 UPDATE: Its been through its fourth winter with us and now sits on the first floor landing. It draws water from over the house as ever and needs emptying roughly once a week.It remains a reliable workhorse that does what it's meant to, well. Four winters and counting.OCT 2023 UPDATE: Heading into its 7th winter with us and still working as well as it ever did. The first run of the season always sees it stay on for three or four days straight (obvs being emptied regularly), then it goes into standby until moisture levels rise. We've used it on higher mode to dry clothes inside too. Would definitely buy Ebac again.

Réception du déshumidificateur Ebac 3860 E pour remplacer un 2860 E et je suis encore satisfaite de la qualité EBAC : le bac est très pratique à vider puisque petit jerrican de 3 l dissimulé derrière la porte en façade avant - le couple compresseur / ventilateur est silencieux – le ventilateur s'arrête lorsque le compresseur s'arrête – un adaptateur de prise secteur blanc et discret est fourni dans le carton – le cordon électrique blanc est de bonne longueur – le vendeur est très réactif et à conseiller –

Very impressed with this unit, couldn't believe how much water it pulled out of the air. We use it in the lower floor area which mainly consist of the kitchen that is often damp and is where the laundry is also aired. Humidity is often >80% before having this unit and is now around 50%.After running for 18 days it consumes about 80KWh, and this is with a mix of laundry drying mode and Ebac's Smart mode. This amount to about ~£9 running cost over this period, which we're pretty happy about quick drying of clothes and dryer kitchen. The unit turns off completely when the humidity level is reached. It is also surprisingly quiet, where we don't really notice it running in the background when using the smart mode.Couple of downside to the experience... when the unit first arrived it was missing the rubber bung that supposed to be in place for the external drainage. We didn't realise this and ended up water leaking out the back. Contacted the manufacturer and they sent out a slightly oversized rubber bung, where we were just able to stuff into the hole to stop the water from coming out from there. The cover unit for the water container keeps popping open when the unit is bumped. Unit not easily moved as there are only two small holes at the side of the unit for you to lift the unit.Overall, we're happy with the purchase.

Les déshumidificateurs Ebac sont les meilleurs du marché, durables ( j en ai deux, un a 17 ans et celui que je remplace a duré plus de 12 ans) et pratiques ( le système de vidage du réservoir est très bien fait comparé à Delonghi que j ai également acheté, mes enfants sont allergiques et je dois surveiller de près le taux d humidité dans la maison). Par contre, je viens de recevoir mon nouveau Ebac 3850E avec une prise anglaise ( pas indiqué dans le descriptif d amazon) et l adaptateur fourni cassé... emballage et protection de l appareil insuffisants ... je ne peux tester mon appareil... et j hésite à le garder... En bref, je recommande Ebac mais certainement pas le vendeur!

I’ve had this unit a week now. Reason for purchase- I had a leaking chimney which has now been removed and so had some dampness in the walls which had cause humidity levels to remain high for over a year since it’s removal. I would find my windows constantly covered in condensation which when touched would cascade down my window and instantly reappear once wiped so a vicious circle. Also as I would walk upstairs the cold and damp air would be startlingly cold to the point bed linen would always feel damp and mould spores were appearing under windows sills in other rooms causing my children to cough constantly! The heating would never warm upstairs and yes my windows would be open during the day in the hope the dampness would circulate out of the windows.My home 3 storey, 3 bedroom, 3 living rooms, 2 bathrooms and a utility room with large kitchen.This machine is a godsend!!!! It has stopped the damp cold feeling as you enter upstairs and the musty smell is virtually gone. I left the unit on full blast in the hallway with the doors open for 3-4 days and nights. Machine was running for 3 hours and the 2l bucket was almost full. I empty it every morning and every afternoon now it’s on eco (auto) mode now and still it’s running constantly as it’s picking up in its sensors that the humidity level is still to high.Pros-1-the unit is easily movable even though it weighs 13kg it’s not that heavy.2- it actually works!3- self instructed once placed on auto mode4-switches off if water bucket is too full5- as far as I can tell it’s not using that much electricity6- long enough cable to reach around a chest of draws and a bit more.7-easy to remove the bucket no clips or manoeuvring once you get the jist it removes at an outward angle.8-bucket has a built in handle at the top for easy carrying to the sink to emptyCons1- bucket is not completely sealed around the top. Seems mine has been half glued in the seam before it’s been screwed together and the lip doesn’t quite meet on one edge (hope it doesn’t drip when bucket is full) I’m pretty sure amazon would help if that is the case.2- on full power the unit is quite loud like a vending machine ( noise can be quite high pitched) mixed with a summer fan on full blast.3- eco mode is similar to full mode just a little quieter as you can’t hear the fan but the buzzing/high pitched humm is still there.4- the digital lights on the front are bright when the lights are off and your trying to go to sleep even when it’s in the hallway it lights it up bright blue. Post it note would probably sort that tho or blue tack.5- when the bucket is removed the water that’s collected inside the unit will still dribble in bursts so you have to be quick to empty or you will find you have a small puddle to contend with.6- you can’t see inside the bucket so your unable to know if you need to empty it before going to bed or going out for the day without removing the bucket and feeling how heavy it feels.A level window would be a great feature in myOpinion.7- the door to get to the bucket feels flimsy so I’m hoping it lasts the duration only the unit as spares and repairs don’t seem cheap on their catalogue.8- additional features like castors or hoses are additional items chargeable £14.99 for wheels and £20 for filters is steep in my opinion considering your paying £199 for the unit in the first place.9- the unit blows out cold air not hot as one review claimed. On full it blows out cold air and it’s slightly warmer that cold on eco mode so don’t believe it’s a heater in combination to the unit.All in all I’m glad I made the purchase, I contacted amazon before purchasing and they assured me they would act as guarantors for the unit for at least a year as it was dispatched and supplied by amazon and bearing in mind their customer service in the past for me it was a deal clincher for me.It’s a unit that works! Has worked! And is currently still working hard to rid my home of excess water through the winter.
