The Arete One is at its noisiest in clothes drying mode, where you’re looking at sound levels of over 50dB and power consumption of over 208W. What’s more, it’s not the most effective dehumidifier I’ve seen for actually drying your clothes; even after six hours some garments were still slightly damp to the touch. In the past we found the Ebac 2650eworked a little better, albeit over a longer 8 hour boost cycle. However, different washing loads and humidity levels make like-for-like comparisons impossible, and the Arete One is still a decent option – you can always leave it on at a lower humidity target or turn on continuous operation if you want it to finish drying out your laundry. Beyond that, this dehumidifier is very easy to use, the controls are all really well laid out, and there’s not too much to get your head around when it comes to operating it. Plus, when running the dehumidifier in the kitchen, I found that it got rid of odours from cooking. And there’s a simple but clever solution for pouring out the water. With Arete there are two spouts: one to the left and one to the right. So you can pour the water away without having to juggle or twist the tank.
Plus, the MeacoDry Arete One dehumidifier'sSmart Laundrymodeworks brilliantly for drying washing indoors – wet laundry was dry in hours rather than the days it can usually take in my draughty Victorian terrace. Many kitchen and electrical appliances are bulky and heavy. Our experienced delivery personnel will take as much care as possible to avoid any damage when bringing items into your property.

It’s designed to help dry laundry hanging on a clothes rail. Running costs vary depending on the size, make and model of dehumidifier you opt for, but the MeacoDry Arete One 12L dehumidifier uses a relatively low 151 Watts of electricity. At current prices that's an approximate running cost of just 4p per hour. As well as being a dehumidifier, the Arete One is also an air purifier and it can be used as a stand-alone air purifier during months when humidity levels in your home may be lower. It comes with one free H13 HEPA filter in the box and you can buy replacement filters as you need them. Note that you don't have to use a filter if you'd prefer not to, as there is also a washable dust filter in the machine. Rated a Which? Best Buy, Arete is the perfect solution to dealing with condensation, mould and damp problems either in the home, in a garage, in an unheated basement, on a boat or in a caravan.
It’s certainly an effective dehumidifier. In a small bedroom with damp and mould issues, I saw the humidity fall from 67% to 52% within a couple of hours, and I had to force the target down to 45% to keep the purifier busy. If the source of moisture is coming from the one location then you should buy one larger dehumidifier, if you feel that you have moisture coming from say the kitchen and drying laundry downstairs and the bathrooms upstairs, then I would buy two smaller dehumidifiers.Will our driver team have any difficulty parking outside your property?

I hadn’t realised until reading this post that it seems that the dehumidifier seems to work better if warmer?

Not as much as you’d think! Our dehumidifiers are designed to be as energy-efficient as possible, and most of the dehumidifiers sold by other brands are efficient too. That means that even the cost of running a dehumidifier continuously might be less than you think. There's a hose adaptor clipped onto the water tank should you wish to add a pump and hose – available separately. With this, you can plumb the Arete One in and enjoy continuous draining rather than having to manually empty the tank. Most people will opt for manual emptying, however, and for them, there are two ways to know when it's time to empty the tank. It'll beep to let you know it's full, and switch itself off, or you can see the tank's water level through the window in the front of the machine. Once you've slid the tank out, there's a handle on the top to carry it, and a spout on each side so you can empty it by tipping it in either direction.Plus, the MeacoDry Arete One also offers a built-in air purification function, so you don't need to waste energy having two appliances running at once. And at just 115W, the MeacoDry Arete One 12L dehumidifier is also very energy efficient compared to most compressor dehumidifiers. In night mode I still found noise levels too high to sleep with it running in the same room, but it was fine running in a room downstairs or in another room, with only a barely perceptible low hum crossing walls or floors.
