GoldStar GHD Dehumidifier Review

This was the cheapest dehumidifier we could get at Home Depot. We have a finished basement in our small house so we thought it was good enough.

While it does the job, and frankly is powerful enough for our size house, it kicks out so much hot air that in the hot summer months, I really feel my AC has to make up for it. I figure my energy costs are twice what the dehumidifier consumes as a result.

Dehumidifiers can get expensive, so if the hot air isn't an issue, this is a decent unit to buy. It's dependable and I don't think it needs to be emptied too often.

 I do wish it would shut off a little easier. It seems when I turn it on it runs until it's full. I guess our place is that humid!
