wisedry 2 x 500 Gram [2.2 lbs] Rechargeable Silica Gel Car Dehumidifier, Microwave Fast Reactivated Desiccant Packets Large for Safes Closet Basement Garage Storage Moisture Absorber Bag Reusable

Works, and recharge / dry process works close to the instructions... But pretty slow to dry the air even when pushed directly into tight space trying to absorb moisture trapped under car carpets.

These work great in our RV. I have one in each cabinet and it got rid of the mildew smell that Ive been fighting for a year. Also put one in the washing machine. You just have to remember to take it out of the washer before you run a load. These are rechargeable! I highly recommend them.

Once the packets were full of moisture, I microwaved them for 8 minutes on a microwave-safe plate as directed. I did not notice a large hole had burned through the black casing, so when I removed the plate from the microwave with the packets on it, the burning hot silica beads fell all over me and my stove and floor. They burned my arms and 1 leg where my skin was exposed. (Not blistering burns, but burns that turned red and still hurt an hour later). Thank GOODNESS no child was nearby. I now have a huge mess to cleanup once the silica cools down and my burns no longer hurt too much to go clean up in there.

I tried drying this out in the microwave, following the instructions on the bag (1000W = 2 x 6 minutes), and a hole burned in the bag, causing the silica beads to fall out. So now the product is ruined. Otherwise, it seemed to absorb moisture from my car (prior to the failed attempt to dry out the bag).

I threw them in the microwave like it instructed, and all the water evaporated away, partly in the microwave then over the next fifteen minutes outside of the microwave. This is great for my car in the winter to help with internal condensation.

I loaded these packs into my safe a few weeks ago and I check the contents yesterday and everything is dry. Before I bought these I had issues with high humidity levels with the documents being somewhat moist with a musty smell.

Garbage, waste of money. Didnt absorb anything, and I know my car has a moisture problem because when I get in it in the morning there is condensation on the inside of the windows. Just buy some one time use ones or the ones that come in the container. :/

I purchased a two pack of WiseDrys approximately five weeks ago, and have generally been happy with how they reduce moisture where they are placed. However, upon drying one of the packages, the silica beads got too hot and melted, burning two holes in the pouch fabric and destroying the product. It would seem to me the pouch material could be much more durable, it almost has a paper quality to it. My other pouch is still intact after a couple uses, but I’m doubtful it will last much longer either. Updated to add that upon reading this review, the seller reached out and offered me a 100% refund. Kudos to them for doing the right thing. It doesnt change my 2-star review of the product itself, but I felt it was important to add that this is a quality seller.

Reduced the RH in my small inclosed workspace from 86% to 32% in a few hours. Pouches are well made. Instructions are clear.

My car has bad seals on the windows and due to some heavy rain lately some water/moisture has been getting into my car. This also causes moisture build up on the inside windows every day with the cold nights/morning. I normally order Damp-rid containers which do a great job but thought since these were reusable, I would give them a shot. Tested for two weeks, attempted to heat them up as instructions indicated, but i have yet to see an improvement on my problem. From what i can tell, they dont absorb any moisture at all. Im giving two stars purely because I received the product and they are decent build quality. Other than that, im going back to my damp-rid. Will not buy again, wish i could get my money back.
