Review: Simple but effective - Nice dehumidifier, simple but so far effective.
Review: Meaco DD8L De-Humidifer - Great Product!! - The delivery of this product ordered direct from Meaco, was fast and very efficient. It was well packaged, and very simple to set up and use. Just basically plug in and go. We decided to purchase this product based on the fact that family members had owned for several years a Meaco de-humidifer which worked great. We have recently moved to a bungalow, which is incredibly well insulated and has been suffering a lot from condensation on the inside of the windows, especially on these cold mornings we are having. Our bedroom is the worst, first thing in the morning when we get up the window is soaked. I know opening windows is an option, but not such a good one when it's freezing outside. We decided to invest in a de-humidifer, but which one?, there is so many on the market. We knew Meaco was a good make, and initially purchased a normal compressor dehumidifer made by Meaco, it worked perfectly but seemed to make the room cold. We thought that it would make the room warmer, but all it did was blow the air around making a draft. It definitely removed the moisture from the air, but we wanted one that warmed the air too. We did a bit of digging and found we should have bought a 'Desiccant' model, not a Compressor. the desiccant model warms the air as well as removing the moisture. They are slightly more expensive but are so much better in my opinion. We contacted Meaco direct through their contact details on the desertcart page and we explained our predicament and asked if we could swap the unit for the model above which is a desiccant de-humidifer. The chap said yes no problem, "you must re-package the one you have now in all its original packaging and box". He said the Delivery driver would bring our new De-humidifer and take the one we have now away at the same time, so basically a swap, we just paid the difference in price between the cost of the two units. True to his word the driver came 2 days later and brought us the DD8L Meaco model......it was fantastic service from Meaco, especially considering it was our mistake in the first place buying the wrong one. The DD8L is a great little machine, and it does exactly what it says it does, and it warms the air too - fantastic. There is not a day that goes by in autumn and winter when we haven't used it. We no longer have any condensation issues, unless I have been cooking and forgotten to switch it on. We keep it in the kitchen most of the time, and I flick it on when I am cooking, especially pasta, potatoes etc which causes a lot of steam, and our hob extractor is not the greatest. When we first purchased the machine we had it running most of the day, just until it removed the moisture problem that we had, however now we find it's only necessary to switch it on once a day for a while. The cost of running the unit is negligible really, especially as it acts like a little heater too. It's not instant heat, but after a while it definitely takes the chill off on a cold morning or afternoon. The other great feature of the DD8L is the clothes drying option. We don't have a tumble drier we find the Meaco works great, we put the clothes on an airer, and set the unit going in the smallest room we have. It takes it a while but it definitely dries your clothes no problem. It has two other settings too, and it automatically cuts off when the humidity level is reached, so it will not keep running and running. The water holding tank is a good size, plus you have the option, and the pipe to attach, to allow it to run into a drain if you need that option. We have loaned it out to family members after they have had a water leak, and I have to say I missed my little Meaco when it was away. After a few days our condensation was back, and I was desperately in need of its return. A great product that I wouldn't be without, we should have bought one years ago. As for the company Meaco, they are spot on and I would definitely recommend both them and this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: To clear windows would the dehumidifier need to be on all night or just 2/3 hours early in the morning?  What does operating noise compare to?**
A: The first thing you do, is to run it for several hours, to get your house/flat to  much more normal humidity levels. So you do this for the first couple of days, keep it on the high setting as that uses the same amount of wattage than the medium setting (approx 650w). Then all you do is, use it for lets say 3 hours per day, keep it in a central location, like the hallway, close all window, and keep all the doors open. You might need to switch between upstairs hallway and downstairs hallway, or if you have a large place, goto individual rooms.  Once this is done, you'll find that you wont have any or very little condensation in the mornings (it also heats up that area). Ofcourse it depends on your property, you need to close trickle vents. Low setting - noise is like a normal computer, I could sleep with that amound of noise, although some might not be able to. Medium setting Like a noisy computer, with its fan on full speed. High setting which is like a hoover on the low setting.

**Q: Has anyone else noticed a smokey haze and smell, that only happens occasionally?**
A: All desiccant dehumidifiers will have a slight burning smell when first used and if not used for a long  time 
It’s completely normal

**Q: Is it okay to use an extension lead with this? Thanks**
A: Link to the instruction manual:http://www.meaco.com/manuals/Meaco%20DD8L%20Dehumidifier%20instruction%20manual_January_2013.pdf

**Q: Could someone please help me - I'm new to dehumidifiers.  Approximately how long would i have to run this after a shower & to dry an airer of clothe ?**
A: Depends how heavy the shower of rain was, and whether you spin dry your clothes before you hang them on the clothes airer. Might take eight hours or so.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far So Good
*by M***Z on 23 November 2022*

I previously owned a Meaco DD8L which has lasted over a decade with fairly regular use as a laundry drier. Unfortunately, this winter it gave up the ghost and a replacement was needed. After much research and almost opting for a direct replacement, I went for the upgrade - the Zambezi. I knew I needed a desiccant model as it's not mega warm in this house so a condenser would struggle. Well, it's larger than the previous one and the digital control board is a bit clunky but not hard to fathom. I worry about the navigation buttons which click ominously at each press (suggesting mechanical wearing). It has a splendid handle to move it about and I don't find it heavy. It is quieter that the previous one too - but there is an inevitable whooshing from the fan. I read other people's reviews - and I am concerned whether I will suddenly get "The Death Code", (C1) but so far it seems to be behaving itself. I hope I'm not being premature. It works! I mean it is pretty good at sucking out the moisture from the air. I had it on for a couple of hours and it palpably bought the humidity down, I could feel the house was drier. (Boiler out of action at the moment). It dries a horse-full of laundry in two to three hours, and I especially like the directional flap that waves the warm air about (an optional setting). I think that feature alone makes it more efficient re laundry drying. The draw is a tad awkward to reposition, but no problems about emptying it. It has "clever" stuff programmed in - so yes it doesn't just switch off - it cools itself down for a few minutes (says so in the manual). I had it in the bathroom for a while, and it seemed to be working even though its readout said the humidity was below the level I had set. However, the manual does say it will wake up and test the humidity - so maybe I caught it in one of those cycles? I've given it the benefit of the doubt. After two weeks - I am happy with it. I got it at a good price - £233 ( about time I got lucky! ) but at the time of writing it's £289 so...... I think good value at £233. My partner bought a Meaco condenser type - but as he is being careful with the heating - the thing keeps stopping to defrost itself. - Moral - if your house is cold - buy a desiccant. All in all - and so far - I think this is a good buy. I reserve the right to come back and rubbish it if it suddenly fails :-)
