I purchased this unit for my basement which is about 1000 sq ft. It does an excellent job of keeping the humidity around 47-50 and I do not run it everyday. I have only had the unit for about a month. The true test will be in the summer but I do like some of the safety features of the system which includes a delay power off to prevent coils from freezing. This is an issue I have had with two previous dehumidifiers from another brand. This also comes with a two year warranty as well once you register online.
The customer service site should be more efficient and reliable. Several calls were met with unavailability and/or lack of response. Eventually a representative was able to provide some direction. The manual with the product is good but could stand some more definitive info.
Great little dehumidifier. Good value for money. Have in upstairs and basements. Would definitely recommend.
ENERGY STAR 2025 Dehumidifier for Home – 30 Pints Quick Moisture Removal for Basement
I’ve been using this WAYKER 6000 Sq.Ft dehumidifier in my basement for about 6 months, and it works very well. It’s a powerful dehumidifier! It quickly brings down humidity even in a large room and runs pretty quiet for its size. The efficiency of dehumidification is very high. I can feel the air become drier and much fresher. I noticed a difference in air quality and moisture levels within a day of working. The display is clear and the controls are simple to use. The auto mode works great, I love it. Once you set your desired humidity level, it automatically detects and stops running when it reaches that point, so there's no need to worry about it overworking. The drain hose is super convenient, makes it truly set it and forget it. It also has wheels to easily move it around.
Unfortunately I had a technical issue. The warranty offered by the manufacturer is for 12 months with an extended option for the second year. I contacted the customer service team which is incredible. They respond quickly with options on how to resolve my problem. I had a very professional and effective communication with them which ended with a positive solution and my great impression about them.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with my purchase and would definitely recommend this dehumidifier to anyone dealing with moist or musty air in the basement.
