MeacoMeacoDry Arete® Two 20L Dehumidifier & HEPA H13 Air Purifier, Wi-Fi Meaco App, Smart humidity mode, Laundry mode, Low Energy, Low Noise, Prevents Damp & Mould, 5x year warranty

Watched all the YouTube reviews on dehumidifier's, The meaco was highly rated. With the meaco two having WiFi interaction with home hub (alexa/Samsung smart things etc) This was my choice. And very pleased... The hepa filter cleans the air while dehumidifying. Or even cleans the air if like in summer you don't need the to dehumidifier the air. The auto off when reaching the desired level is a brilliant money saver. This turns off the dehumidifier when it reaches you set level. Unlike many others that run without doing anything.Noise level very low, and even lower in night mode.All function easy to follow with a lock screen function for little fingers.In my view this is while not the cheapest is the best for the money,Purchasing in the summer month availability and price are usually cheaper.

I have had this dehumidifier for almost two weeks. I bought it because the house I live in was built in the 60s and whilst having cavity wall insulation, loft insulation and full double glazing it does suffer from very cold walls in a couple of spots (old council house construction). These cold spots obviously get damp in winter.The first day of usage I did not notice much improvement and this was no doubt down to the Meaco doing its best to dry out the air first. After a couple of days the improvement to the known cold spots was clear – condensation from overnight breathing in the bedroom was totally gone.I positioned the Meaco at the top of the stairs so it can deal with the bedrooms, bathroom and generally the rest of the house. It is left on all day at the moment and I am careful to empty it daily as it is getting to just under half full after a full day – I expect this to drop down once the house has “dried out”.I have used the laundry mode several times and it really makes a difference. I have never used a tumble dryer and in the winter dry all washing indoors which of course just added to the general dampness in the house. It would take well over 24 hours to totally dry a complete washing load but now I can set up the washing to dry at 9am and it is dried by 5pm – sometimes faster depending upon what is being dried.The phone app to control it is useful but not essential – probably better for people who spend time away from home during the day so they can switch it on and off remotely.Yes it is not cheap but I am so impressed by it and it was well worth the money.

A must have for every British house/flat. Does the job and remove moisture from our 65 square meters flat..

Been using this for just over a week now and has been brilliant, used for drying clothes and have had it on 24/7 (in smart humidity mode) it has been easy to setup and use via the app.We have a 2 bed 2 bath flat with wooden flooring, all doors open and the dehumidifier set to 50% target and running the smart humidity.The features are great and work really well. Meaco support are fast and helpful.Drying speed - I found 4 hours to be a good time.Noise level - very quiet, the fan system being brushless makes sure for a smooth running sound you can notice it but it's really a smooth elairflow sound and When the dehumidifier is doing its thing the motor is very quiet.Design - looks great, very smart and the LCD screen is clear and bright.Size - great size for any size property.Energy- you can easily keep it on 24/7 it will every 30 minutes turn on the fan to detect the moisture level so it's not on all of the time, haven't noticed any difference is our electricity bill but will notice more over time but it's very cheap to run.Thoughts - Overall an amazing dehumidifier, you get what you pay for and is one that you will not be saddened to have bought. Another great Meaco product.

purchased the arete 2 --20 litre model recently to update an older EBAC model that I have had for many years and has given great service---this so called MEAKO DRY most advanced latest model is pathetic--you need a PHD in computer science to use it and the controlling buttons are a JOKE I'm afraid that this item is very shortly going to be returned as it is not fit for purpose--had it on for 6 hours in a recently purchased house and checked the tank to see how much water was being removed --these premises had been empty for months----not a teaspoon full and blowing out ice cold air--could not get the controls to work having the instruction booklet at my side and also watching a video on this machine---will not touch any MEAKO product in the future---and this thing cost me £300--what a complete waste of money---LOOK ELSEWHERE! as this machine is definitely not user friendly by any means.

After having this dehumidifier a few weeks now and testing it i tried a 10 litre meaco same model but 10 litre and it just wasn't extracting inhave a one bedroom old style flat so it can get high humidity very quickly i tried a 12 litre pro breeze it was extracting but it just kept cutting of after every 10 minutes so had to return both meaco recommended the 20 or 25 litre so I went for the 20 litre and it has been very good it dries things fairly quickly it brings humidity down fairly fast im not sure how it would be in a house but in a 1 bedroom old style flat it's very good it can be abit noisy when first turning on sounds bit like a fridge freezer it's very cheap on electricity costs about 5p a hour you can also control it anywhere via the app so you can even be away from home miles away and it will control it via the app on your phone with is a very handy feature it also give out bit warmth in the home I would recommend this 20 litre size meaco brand as it doesn't cut of even at lower temperatures

Fantastic dehumidifier. Quietly runs when required and easy to set to 55%, or "as dry as possible" when speed drying clothes.App is okay - expected better, but it plays a small part in the overall product.
