Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

This nice-looking unit does a great job sucking moisture out of the air. We use it in our finished basement and the laundry room. Takes about 3 to 4 hours to bring the humidity from 75% down to 50%. As with most A/C's (it's basically an A/C), don't expect it to be very energy efficient. However, it performs and performs really well. So, choose your priorities.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

The Frigidaire Dehumidifier replaced an old Sears (LG) unit that stopped working after about three years. This unit is powerful and effective for my daylight basement of about 1,000 sf. Within a few hours, the basement became noticeably drier and warmer.

I bought the unit because of a humid basement. The unit has worked without any problems the whole time I have owned it. I have not set up the unit to automatically drain but will eventually try it because draining it becomes a nuisance.

The one con about the unit is that it is little noisy.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

I had an issue with removing the bucket but called Frigidaire and the customer rep. asked me to check the filter to see if it was possibly a little low and blocking the removal of the bucket, sure enough, that is what it was. Problem solved, it does also come on for a few seconds and stop, then does it again and she said that is normal and the units way of checking the moisture in the air. I have owned several dehumidifiers and this is the first one that has done that. I am extremely satisfied with the amount of water it pulls out of the air. I set it at 35% humidity and am happy with the results. The unit is noisy but they all are, for the price and efficiency I think this is a Great buy.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

At three weeks, this dehumidifier has lived up to its generally stellar reviews across several online sources: it has done an excellent job of drying out our dank, unfinished 1200 square foot basement by reliably pumping out gallon after gallon of humidity around the clock. I hooked up a hose from the outset to make it maintenance free. When the hose became kinked, the water automatically filled the container and then the unit shut off before it overflowed - so these fail-safe features worked well too. The fan is pretty loud on high, as others have noted, but the ability to move so much moist air is also why it is so effective. With the fan on low, we cannot hear it upstairs but you certainly will if you are using it in a living space. We are using the continuous mode but switching to the humidistat setting would run the fan intermittently. Assuming the reliability is as good as the warranty and other reviews suggest, this is an excellent product for our purposes.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

Great humidifier! Easy to operate and move around with the handle. Much better than an old 25 pint humidifier I was using that was the same size. The red indicator light that comes up when it's full is a great feature. The only reason I didn't give it 5 starts is because the tank is a little hard to remove. You have to jiggle it a bit to get it to pop out.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

As previous reviews have stated, the unit is loud (even louder than I expected); however, I use it in my unfinished basement so this is not an issue. Also, as previous reviews have stated, it is awkward to remove the water pan. The pan is filled to the top before the full light comes on & you must be very careful removing it to avoid a spill. The dehumidifier does an excellent job removing water from the air. I only gave the unit 4 stars because I have only owned it for a month. If it lasts longer than my last dehumidifier (3 years) then I'd consider upping the rating.

We have a 90 year old house with a deep basement that has no leaks but was always damp...until now. This Frigidaire unit is working very well in reducing the dampness. After 2-3 days of continuous use the cool/moist feeling was gone (our basement is about 860 sq.ft. and 8 feet deep). The fan's a little noisy but we can't hear it upstairs. Solved our chronic moisture problem.

I may have to run a hose from the unit to a drain so it needs less of my attention. The unit is by no means quiet, but the low fan speed setting is tolerable.

We'll see if it lasts longer than 2 years though...That seems to be the average life of a dehumidifier in this day and age.

I decided to buy this product by researching online and reading reviews about this product. It is highly recommended and the best seller for basement dehumidifiers. It is a little heavy to me, but I guess it is nothing to others. It is not a problem to me because I only use it in basement, and I don't need to move it.

It works perfectly. It is quiet and efficient. What I like most is it is easy to throw out the water and it is timing functions. I usually one hour in the early morning and one hour at night. I put the air freshener nearby the fan. so after one hour the basements smells dry and good. I have used it for one month and I have been enjoying it. No complaints at all.

This is a great dehumidifier. I had bougth a Danby dehumidifier 15 months ago based on a top rating in Consumer Reports. That dehumidifier, however, was loud and stopped working after only 13 months. This dehumdifier is much quieter and just as effective. Moreover, the water container design is much better: this one has a plastic top so that when you remove the water container it doesn't leak all over, as the Danby did.

I am very very pleased with this dehumidifier. A huge improvement over the Danby.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

With all the rain in NY this spring/summer, our basement was DANK and had a musty smell. I was really concerend about mold growth with two small children, and a powerful dehumidfier seemed like the solution. It really was. Our basement now stays below 50% humidity and it feels and smells DRY. I haven't hooked up the hose yet, because I still need to buy a relative short garden hose, so I empty it twice a day. For the price, it's an awesome little work-horse that I wouldn't trade for the world, BUT (and this is a big BUT), it is loud. We have forced air heat, and vents come up from the basement. We keep them open now (again, to keep the air flowing and prevent mold)and the sound of the hummming dehumidifier can be heard in every room. On the first floor you can almost feel the vibrations from the basement below.

This is a highly effective de-humidifier. I bought a foreclosed house with mold issues and it has made the made much more dry. I put in a tube so that the water would go directly into the sump. This works well so I don't have to dumpt the bucket every 6-7 hours.

This is the best dehumidifier I have ever seen. I am a mechanical engineer and I get very finicky about how machines are engineered. Well, I give this appliance an A+. No kidding....a very good design and it's amazingly effective (70 pints per day is almost twice the norm). I actually use this unit instead of two older GE models. I'm certain I'm pulling out more basement moisture with less electricity. I could not be more pleased. (Anyone want to buy an old GE dehumidifier??)

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

I have gone through 5-6 dehumidifiers in my basement, and they typically last about 3 years +/-. I chose this model based on reviews. I have only had it about three weeks, so I can't speak about its durability, but its design is by far the best I've seen. The hose connection is designed so that the water bucket is completely bypassed, solving two problems: 1) there is no inch or two of standing water (which becomes slimy) in the bottom of the bucket as there is in the typical unit where the hose is attached to a flimsy connection built into the bucket. 2)It also allows for the unit to be moved from the location near the sump pump where it drains, to an area where there is no place to drain (in which case the bucket can be used, since it has not been punctured for the hose connection).

The water bucket has a convenient handle on top as well as a cover to prevent water from splashing out when moving. The unit has a convenient handle on top for one-handed moving as well as handles on the side. The wheels make it easier to move also.

It is not as loud as I expected based on some reviews - it is actually quieter than the smaller units of other brands that I have had. I also like the retro look the unit has.

Service & Delivery comments:

Was delivered in two days in perfect condition. I shopped around for the best price and ABT by far had the best deal with free shipping, which on such a heavy item is a great savings.

This unit works well and the water bucket float device ( the item that broke on the GE model ) is much better made on this one. I would recommend this model to anyone who is seeking a great dehumidifier. I use it in my basement and it really pulls the water out of the damp air. [...]

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

You can definitely feel the change in himidity in the basement. I just have to keep up with the bucket changing since I don't have an output (a sink)for the hose. Also, it is quite tedious when cleaning the bucket since the cover is screwed down. I would definitely recommend this for humidity control purposes and if you have condensation due to temp change. Also, I recommend buying the warranty if you plan to run it continuously with a hose. But if you have high water table content & capillaries going into your house,this will not solve your problem since that is a bigger issue. For that, you may need a sump pump & a french drain inside your house.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

While I've owned the unit only about three weeks, so far the Frigidaire dehumidifier works as advertised. After allowing the unit to run full time for a period of 4 days after first setting it up (per manual), I now have the unit set to cycle off when humidity drops to 55%. My basement is not huge, so unit runs less than half the time now. The only disappointment I have with the unit is that it is much louder than I anticipated, certainly much louder than the Sears Kenmore unit it replaced. Luckily, I spend little time in the basement so this is not a major deal for me, but could be to someone who plans to run the unit in a living area.

I have a very wet basement (about 25x30ft). This machine sucked the moisture out of my basement in under 3 days. Works great, but a little noisy for upstairs. The ability to run an out-drain line (same fitting as on the back of a washing machine)is great, but you must buy the hose separately. All in all...4 out of 5 stars.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

I purchased this because of reviews I saw on another site. I usually go with the recommendations of Consumer Reports, but they didn't review this. However, another site had over 100 good reviews about this so I bought it and haven't regretted that decision. Aside from the fact that its a little loud, it has really taken the moisture out of our finished basement and made it a lot more comfortable.

Luckily, I have a slop sink in the basement and I was able to mount this on a stand just above the height of the sink. The house adapter allowed me to run a small house into the sink. Considering how well this works, I was filling the bucket up twice a day on these hot summer days. The hose allows me to run it 24/7 without having to go down and empty the bucket.

Filter Reset Light- bad idea!!!!
By GreenMachineVerified Purchaser from Rochester, NY on 7/10/2009
Pros:
Quality Construction
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cook

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

According to the Owner's Guide, "the filter reset light will illuminate after 250 hours of operation". Fine. The only problem is that the machine shuts off and will not run until you push the "Filter" button to reset. I was away for a week-and-a-half and noticed that I wasn't hearing the dehumidifier run. I noticed that the filter reset light was on. I checked the filter- there was hardly any dust on it. Only after pushing the filter reset button would the unit run. I cannot recommend this unit to anyone who might go away for extended periods of time.

We just moved into a two level apartment that includes a finished basement where the bedrooms are located. We noticed immediately that our clothes, sheets, and other materials felt moist. After purchasing this dehumidifier, it is a completely different feeling. It has dried out our basement area. Plus, it holds a ton of water so we don't have to change the bucket much. The only downfall is it can be a little loud when it switches on during the night, but you get used to it.

While we normally use a drain hose instead of the dehumidifier accumulation tank, we initially used the tank to guage the unit's ability to remove moisture from the air. Very impressive. The hose hookup was the easiest of any unit we've owned so far. Unit noise was acceptable, esp. considering what a good job it was perfoming removing moisture from our basement. We hope this unit lasts, as last two units(Whirlpool) failed relatively early in life.

We bought this unit after our 3 year old Kenmore stopped working. The Frigidaire is a good looking dehumidifier and works great with one exception. The water collection bucket is difficult to remove without binding up or spilling some water onto the floor. Before our last unit which also had a hard to remove bucket, we had an ugly one with the bucket in the rear that didn't have all the bells and whistles, but had a bucket that removed easily

Pros:

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire 70 Pint Dehumidifier In White:

I use this in a basement where I previously had humidity problems and I had a smaller capacity dehumidifier which was running constantly and not removing a lot of the humidity. With this humidifier, I have not had a problem, although the real test will be the very humid days of the middle of summer. One small complaint would be the bucket is a bit difficult to remove (it doesn't come out smoothly and has to be jiggled/worked out) which is a problem when the bucket is all the way full since you can spill water on the floor but not much since it does have a plastic cover that partially covers the top of the bucket.
