MeacoDry Arete® One 10L Warm Pebble Dual Dehumidifier & HEPA air purifier for smaller sized houses or flats - prevents damp and condensation - ultra-quiet, low energy, laundry mode- five year warranty

In hardly do reviews, only bother when an item exceeds my expectations. Well, Meaco Arete 10 dehumidifier and air purifier did just that. Not only does it dehumidify brilliantly, it also purifies the air at the same time. The smart functionality helps to save electricity by switching device off and on when desired humidity level is attained or exceeded. Sound is relatively low compared to other dehumidifiers. However, don't expect it to be entirely unnoticeable, depending on its location around the house. You certainly can't sleep with it running, of you're a light sleeper. A strong point is its ability to dry clothes very quickly. It has a laundry function which is handy. Although I use the regular setting. A full laundry load gets dry in under 24hrs, absolutely splendid. It shuts off automatically when the bucket is full. I also noticed the Arete makes the room warmer by up to 4 degrees, depending on the external temperature. I bought this when the weather was still a bit warmer and noticed a considerable increase in room ambient temperature running the Arete. Now that outdoor temperature is around a max of 8 to 10 degrees, I think it raises ambient temperature by up to 2 degrees. My observation. One thing is certain, the removal of excess moisture from the atmosphere means you can heat your home up to temperature a lot quicker than otherwise, thereby saving on energy bills. Overall, I'd happily recommend the Meaco Arete or any good condenser humidifier. We have two at home, the second being the Argos Challenger. The Challenger being the first I bought. Had I known about the Arete beforehand, wouldn't have bought the Challenger. Nonetheless, it works well to, albeit without the smart functions. The Challenger runs until it's turned off or gets full. Also uses a bit more electricity compared to the Meaco Arete 10L. A good buy. If you're thinking about a dehumidifier, please go ahead and buy one. They're not cheap but a good one like the Arete is well worth every penny!

I've been using my dehumidifier for about a year now, and it's been fantastic quality. It collects water so nicely, and it really makes drying clothes so much easier. Honestly, I'm really happy with this purchase. It's made a noticeable difference in my home. The capacity is great, and it's not too noisy either. I can definitely recommend this if you're looking for a reliable unit. It's been a game-changer for dampness. Definitely a worthwhile investment!

I am delighted with the Arete One. I principally bought it to dehumidify our daughter's stubbornly damp bedroom. It is doing a fantastic job of doing that, removing several litres of moisture every week. I hoped it might also help a bit with her hay fever (which yes, kicks in in January/Feb these days). And it is doing a brilliant job of doing so - reduced her symptoms overnight. Well worth the money: it's a quality item, beautifully designed and made (it's one of John Lewis's best sellers in the category). I went for the 'pebble' colour, and it happily blends in in a corner of the room. The sound is impressively quiet: a gentle hum only. It's very, very easy to use. Very highly recommended.

I found that whenever I got onto my Elliptical Cross Trainer for an hour or two, my windows would get steamed up. This had led to paintwork damage and mould developing, and would lead to the woodwork being damaged if I didn't do anything about it. So the search was on for a dehumidifier! I would have loved one with some kind of HomeKit or Alexa compatibility but I needed a reliable one. I have everything automated so that when I start an elliptical exercise on my watch then the lights turn off and the Sky Mini Box turns on etc. In the end, I decided on the MeacoDry Arete One 10L. And I couldn't be happier. Meaco are known for Dehumidifiers. This model isn't 'Smart' though, so I use it with a Smart Plug, and now it turns on whenever I start an Elliptical on my watch. Works fine! I understand from research that it is better not to turn off the Dehumidifier immediately after my workout with a routine; the MeacoDry Arete One is designed to just stay on. It likes to run every 30 minutes to measure the humidity, and then run on until it reduces the humidity to the level you set. Once it is at its target humidity, it turns on every 30 mins or so, checks the humidity and if it is happy, then it turns off shortly after. That would then be the best time to power off the Meaco, when it is in a check mode and it isn't processing moisture. In practice, I leave it on a couple of hours or so after my workout and then I power it off from the Smart Plug. In Use: It's relatively quiet. I don't hear it above the huff and puff of me on the Elliptical. If it's on and I'm watching the TV, I'll need to turn the volume up 3 notches. I find that it is on a par with the fan in my room. Efficiency: It's very efficient. Before I bought it, I would work out on the elliptical and after an hour or so, my bay windows are covered in damp. Yay! I was working out, man. Now, I have to have a really intense workout to see any damp on my windows. And then by the end of my workout, I usually don't see any damp. If I notice any damp at all when I've finished my workout, the Meaco clears it within 30 mins or so. I'm on an exercise crusade at this time and I workout for at least two hours a day, and I tend to have to empty the Meaco about once a week. I've had this machine for about two months now and I can't even begin to imagine where all that damp would have gone! A highly recommended machine. I might just need another one for the loft; the on-suite bathroom does get steamed up despite the extractor fan being on.

happy with this does what is says glad for laundry mode too

Leiser Luftentfeuchter, der sehr gut entfeuchtet.

Really good and silent product!

Perfect

TOP-Gerät. Wir sind sehr zufrieden, dass wir nichts anderes gekauft haben.

Ich bin sehr zufrieden! Funktioniert einwandfrei und ist sehr einfach zu bedienen. Der Modus für Wäschetrocknen ist eine wunderbare Lösung im Winter. Im Großen und Ganzen ein Muss im Winter in feuchte Gebiete.
