DeLonghi Tasciugo AriaDry DD230P

Not removing much water at Temp 24 Relative Humidity 45 – DD230P DEL TASCIUGO ARIA DEHUMIDIFIER 30L I tried a DeLonghi Pump System Dehumidifier DD230P dehumidifier and sent it back because it was not removing much water at 23C and 50% humidity. After trying its replacement an Ausclimate 50L dehumidifier, which draws 1.5 times the power and does a little better in my 23C air conditioned house, I am switching back because of the Ausclimate is massively louder. It bothers my wife sleeping downstairs.

So now I have switched back to the DeLonghi which has various benefits: - massively quieter on 2 fan setting and quiet enough to sleep with on 1 fan setting - better quality - lighter to carry - controls are a little better showing current and target humidity at the same time - a continuous setting to always running - at higher humidity levels it performs well

negatives - need to press the pump button rather than automatic - removes very little water at 23C and below 50% humidity

Overall I am accepting that it is effective keeping me at or below 50% humidity which is my main objective.
