We placed this in our basement and it brought down the humidity pretty good. It I longer feels musty in that room. Great product

Very effective, but loud buzzing interferes with conversations, telephone calls, and tv when in same room. UPDATE- We have received a direct SEAVON response to our concerns about the noise from this machine. We are pleased to work with a company that is so consumer aware! Since we have friends who use this same machine very successfully, we are happy to exchange our machine for a new one as it seems this problem may be unique to our particular unit. We look forward to posting the results from the replacement!!! If the new machine is as quiet as our friends machine, we will be upgrading to 5 stars. Again, were so impressed with the companys initiating a solution!!!

Honestly, I do not have anything to compare this to. BUT! I can say it works really well. It does exactly what it says. Except it’s not quiet. The first few times you can barely hear it and then it gets louder and louder. It would be ridiculous to compare it to the noise of a swamp cooler, but since I have both, it’s ALMOST as overwhelming. I do have a small house which means I’m “close” to it basically anywhere I sit. If you have a larger home, maybe the sound will drift into the background nicely. Who knows. Also, the power button seems to be more of a suggestion? I try to turn it off constantly (when I can’t take the noise anymore) and it just doesn’t shut up. When I finally do get it to turn off, the fan continues running. After about 5 minutes, I get frustrated and just unplug it. (Of course this could be specific to mine) I’m giving it a 5 star because this thing pulls water out of your house at quite a high rate. I’m constantly emptying the basin. It’s insane! And I enjoy the very soft “full” chime. The design is beautiful, the castors are super nice and it does it’s job without complications. Set it and forget it. I do recommend this! The rate it pulls water out is worth every penny. I do recommend this particular one for larger homes and I wouldn’t suggest it being in a bedroom (noise) but hey! If you’re humidity is too high, this is your answer.

Purposely bought this for use in travel trailer. It will NOT work off of a wall timer. Very disappointing as previous brand did, which is no longer available.
