The unit was perfect for my needs and worked efficiently and well. Unfortunately, a couple of weeks shy of the one year mark, it inexplicably leaked which unfortunately caused some damage to the carpet. I was redirected by Amazon to contact the seller directly and I was very impressed with how quickly they responded. They understandably asked me to provide a video which I could not do as the leak seemed to come from the bottom, so I took a series of photos showing the time between photos so it could best convey the problem. After review, they immediately refunded the full amount of the unit. It never was clear to me how or why the leak happened as I could not trace it's origin, but it did, indeed, leak.

Lowered the humidity in my basement beautifully and helped keep the cinder block walls dry. Attached it to the drain with the supplied hose, which kept the drain trap wet so critters (like centipedes) didn't enter as often.

Works great. The tank is a little small, and arrived with a damaged wheel housing, but pulls all the moisture from the air. Dropped our humidity day one.

The below notes are after daily use for almost 1 month. I live in the north east US and Fall is approaching with lots of rain. Basement is decently insulated. Usability: Very easy to use. Simple buttons, simple screen, hard to mess up. Sound: On high setting it is noticeable but given this unit is rated for 5000sq. Ft. You can position this anywhere and not really notice the sound. For example my unit is about 20ft from the living area and it's more or less white noise you don't notice. Performance: Very impressed. My basement is a little under 1000sq. Ft. And within an hour of starting this up for the first time, humidity dropped to the set range without issue. Temperature: Machine is set to 45% Humidty on High fan. The air comming directly out of the top measures at ~31% humidity and ~85°F. This heat does not travel well in a large open area so as far as my basement temperature is concerned, it's always pleasantly cool. However Humidity Control: despite being rated for 5000sq. Ft. I found that it does not really bring the humidity down below 48% in an ~1000sq. Ft. Floor. Of course you wouldn't really want a LIVING space to be THAT dry but just a note. I keep it at 50-55% which the machine handles perfectly fine. Tank: If possible, arrange a drain set up using the provided hose so you don't have to keep emptying it. If you don't have that capability then you'll probably have to empty the tank frequently UNTIL humidity has equilibrated. Once it's evenened out, then emptying the tank is done a couple days apart. Overall Results: Very satisfied and would buy another if I ever needed to. Again, if your floor is under 1000sq. Ft. The flow rate of this 5000sq. Ft. Unit works great at keeping humidity consistently down to 50%, anything under that 50% is difficult to maintain unless you live in a dry environment.

I waited to write a review until I had used it. I live in Florida off a lake and a mile from the ocean. This dehumidifier works great. I do have to empty once or twice a day, but I noticed that the AC doesn't run as much and the house smells a lot better. It's a great investment, I love it.
