Not so great after all. UPDATED. I’ve been using it for about six weeks and it seems to work very well. Right now the humidity is 39% which will be ok for my ukulele since it’s a laminate. lolUPDATE: Bought a second one and put them in the same room. After a day one reads 45% humidity and 71 degrees and the other reads 49% humidity and 73 degrees.Don’t be fooled that these are in any way accurate.Update: bought a third and that one reads about 53% when the others are at 45% and 49%. So I’d…

I have a brand new Frigidaire dehumidifier with an electronic display, an Accurite 00613A1 that I bought recently at the same time when I bought the Vicks (to compare against and because the Accurite had a magnet mount on the back), and a 10-15 year old Bionaire unit. All had temperatures within a point of each other. The Bionaire and Frigidaire seemed to be closest to each other on relative…

I wish I had got 2 more of a simpler version I also bought at the same time I bought these- it held up. I could have just googled the comfort level of humidity myself for when I use humidifiers in my babies rooms. These sit on a dresser in both bedrooms- both started having glitches where they would turn off and I had…
