Russell Hobbs RHDH2002 20 Litre/Day Dehumidifier for Damp/Mould & Moisture in Home, Kitchen, Bedroom, Office, Caravan, Laundry Drying, 50m2 Room, Smart Timer, White

Product Information

The beeping noise that sounds when the dehumidifier is ready to be emptied is very loud. I can hear the two sharp beeps from all over my flat. I actually found this a very handy feature when I was relying on the smart mode function. Energy use

In terms of noise, the Russell Hobbs version is louder than many other top-rated dehumidifiers at 47.5dB. The biggest issue with the water tank came when emptying it, the reservoir would full right to the very top so it often spilt over when I slid it out to empy it. There is a cleverly hidden carry handle built into the reservoir but it didn't help overcome the spilling issue. To put it to the true test I tried sleeping with it on in my bedroom. I'm quite a light sleeper, so although during the day I didn't find the hum that irritating, I did struggle to get to sleep with it and ended up switching it off. The Russell Hobbs RHDH2002 20L dehumidifier uses 440W of energy compared to Meaco's 20L Arete One which uses 216W on average. At current energy prices, that means the Russell Hobbs model costs roughly 13p per hour to run, compared to the Meaco Arete One's average 6p per hour running cost. Portability

You work at BID, what a legend.

I found the dehumidifier was pleasantly quiet compared to cheaper version I've used in the past. However, it does give off a low-level hum which I could hear down the corridor.

This function meant that I didn't have to worry about leaving the dehumidifier on all the time, and it was only in use when it needed to be. To add to the portability it is also relatively light and easy to lift, with two hand groves on either side so I was able to easily carry it up and down stairs on my own. Maintenance This dehumidifier doesn't have a remote or any clever Apps to control it, everything is done via the LED display and electronic control panel on the top of the dehumidifier, which I found kept things nice and simple.

The reservoir on the front of the dehumidifier features a small window which is supposed to help you gauge how full it is, but I struggled to see through it. However, the dehumidifier sounds a loud alarm when the tank is full and automatically shuts off. That said, overall, the Smart function did work well and helped us minimise the dampness and mould returning to our flat over the winter.It also cut down on how frequently I needed to empty the tank, usually taking around two days to fill up completely.
