The Best Dehumidifiers on Amazon of 2024

Of the three smaller models we found, the Eva-Dry E-500 removed the most moisture from the air, reducing the relative humidity by about 19% in an hour and 40 minutes. The E-500 is especially portable because it doesn't require power to operate; it uses desiccant silica beads (like those silica packets that sometimes come with things you've just bought) that passively absorb moisture.

Unlike entirely non-electric dehumidifiers, the Eva-Dry does use electricity sometimes. Once the orange beads are full of moisture, they turn green. To refresh the beads, you need to plug it into an outlet and wait for 10 to 14 hours while the moisture has evaporated away, causing the beads to return to their original orange color.

The Eva-Dry isn't meant to be used in situations where you need to remove moisture immediately; we recommend you use the E-500 for low-key, constant moisture removal, such as on boats or in RVs.

Out of all of the 70-pint dehumidifiers we found, Frigidaire's model removed the most moisture from the air—in nearly two hours, it reduced the humidity in the room by about 54%. With a handle, wheels, and handholds, the Frigidaire is easy to move and store.

However, the filter is hidden, accessible only after removing the water tank bucket. On the other hand, the unit is also "smart," and can be controlled over Wi-Fi through the Frigidaire app (iOS, Android); this functionality is a really great way to start removing moisture, even when you're away from your home.

The Frigidaire Gallery isn’t the fastest at reducing humidity, but it does have other strengths that make it a good choice.

The Gallery range has smart connectivity with iOS or Android app control and integration with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. This means you can check and adjust your home's humidity level while you’re away.

This dehumidifier has the best front reservoir design we found. Front opening reservoirs are often awkwardly shaped, which can lead to spilling while emptying. This isn’t an issue with the Frigidaire Gallery. It comes with a reservoir cover that allows for smooth water pouring without spills, as well as a handy level indicator that clearly shows how full the reservoir is.

All dehumidifiers have air filters to keep dust mites off the heat exchangers. The Frigidaire has the sturdiest of those on the list. In other cases, it felt like the filters or clips that held them in place would break sooner or later.

The single pop-up handle on top of the unit allows for well-balanced carrying. It’s a one-handed lift though, so prepare for a bicep workout.

Simple controls are a major plus for the HME020031N. The comfort setting automatically keeps humidity around 50%, so the Homelabs dehumidifier is easy to set up and leave running without adjustments.

This dehumidifier is slow at reducing humidity. Like a number of other brands, there were also problems with the reservoir design. The lack of a lid and awkward shape meant that emptying the reservoir makes for a tricky task.

If you have a floor drain and want a simple-to-control dehumidifier you could set to continuous draining and forget, this would be a good choice, particularly if you only have to cope with moderate humidity levels.

With a capacity to remove up to 22-pints of moisture per day, this Energy Star certified dehumidifier from Vremi is a great choice for anyone looking for a sleek and fast working dehumidifier.

Though the Vremi is said to be a little heavy at 33.1-pounds, it does have wheels that make it a little easier to move around if need be. That being said, the wheels don’t lock so if your floors are uneven this could be annoying. The dehumidifier includes a turbo mode and reviews mention that it isn’t super loud despite having a high capacity and that it's also easy to troubleshoot if need be.

The standard hose connector is great for continual flow but it’s worth mentioning that a drain hose doesn’t come included so you’ll want to order one separately so that you can get the dehumidifier up and running. Despite the water collection vessel’s irregular shape it isn’t hard to empty and reviews think that it’s worth dealing with for the sleek look. Intended for indoor spaces of up to 1,500 square feet, this is a great little dehumidifier for most spaces.
