Damp walls and chilly homes are a common occurrence during the winter’s wet weather, not to mention the hassle of drying laundry indoors. That’s where dehumidifiers come in.
One of the top benefits of using a dehumidifier is that by placing it beside wet laundry, you can drastically speed up drying time, and avoid using a tumble dryer, which can be costly to run. Dehumidifiers are also great for preventing the growth of mould and mildew and improving air quality.
Dehumidifiers generally have a relatively low energy usage, and by drawing litres of water from the air, can avoid moisture building up inside the house, especially when ventilation is poor during the winter. Although the handy devices can be an investment, they don’t have to cost a fortune.
Amazon’s selection offers a solution with the HKJIMO Portable Mini Electric Dehumidifier, with smart features and earning praise as “outstanding” – all for an affordable £39.98.
Customers who have purchased the purse-friendly dehumidifier have raved about it’s ability to collect water, with one shopper describing it as a “godsend for damp”.
This dehumidifier operates silently and can extract up to 300ml of moisture daily, making it a savvy investment. It combats dampness, accelerates laundry drying, and even helps heat your home more efficiently, ultimately cutting down on energy and household costs.
Compact in design, the HKJIMO dehumidifier measures a mere 5.1 x 5.1 x 9.4 inches, perfect for small spaces and tight budgets. It has a capacity of 850ml before needing to be emptied and includes an automatic shut-off feature for safe overnight or unattended use.
Energy efficiency is key with this device, which uses just 0.54kW of power over 24 hours. Ideal for bedrooms to promote better sleep, or in bathrooms and closets to prevent condensation, it keeps garments dry and fresh.
Customers are raving about the convenient size of the portable dehumidifier, with comments flooding in like: “Love the size of this portable dehumidifier” for being “very compact so can easily be placed where required.”
