Meaco

4.7
(76)
"I have this one too and it’s brilliant. Worth the extra few bob."
·
"I second meaco."
·
"We have a Meaco 20l and it’s a powerful beast. Had it for two years now and it’s still doing a very good job."
·
"Get Meaco brand."
·
"Another vote for meaco here. It was a bit more expensive but actually works, unlike cheap ones we tried before."
·
"We've had a meaco chemical based on that about 15 years old, and still used daily. Just bought an Arete two 12l. It's as quiet as a whisper."

"Meaco are a solid shout for the brand. We got the 12 litre and can move it around where required."
·
"Me too. 3 years in and it hasn’t broken down once. Just remember to clean the hard plastic filter every month and change HEPA filter after about a year."
·
"Another vote for meaco. Dehumidifiers aren't cheap but they are great."
·
"The Meaco 25 litre I replaced it with is so much better, maybe oversized for the space but whate"

AprilAire

"We are happy with our Aprilaire. Nearly 45 years and going strong"

Unknown Dehumidifier
