Advantages: does the job

Disadvantages: stopped working

This is a great value for money dehumidifier, it does what it is supposed to. I bought this after having a condensation/damp problem, and could not believe how much water it sucked out of the air, needless to say the condensation problem stopped, and so did the dehumidifier.

After 3 months it stopped working completely. So i took it back to B&Q and was offered a no quibble refund or replacement, I opted for the replacement, however after I did the shop assistant told me that he had had 6 of them returned in the last week because of the same problem (may be a manufacturign fault) , but seeing that i had already exchanged it I took it home.

Now 3 months on again, it is making some worrying noises, so I am expecting another trip to B&Q in the not so distant future, only this time I will opt for a refund and buy a replacement else where.

Edited*****

I paid £75, but with the new tax cuts it is now less than £74

Summary: would be wary of buying, as although does the job seems to break down.
