– MeacoDry Arete® One 25L Dual Dehumidifier & HEPA Air Purifier- 5x Year Warranty - Controls Humidity & Removes Excess Moisture in Large Houses - Low Energy

I've been using my dehumidifier for about a year now, and it's been fantastic quality. It collects water so nicely, and it really makes drying clothes so much easier. Honestly, I'm really happy with this purchase. It's made a noticeable difference in my home. The capacity is great, and it's not too noisy either. I can definitely recommend this if you're looking for a reliable unit. It's been a game-changer for dampness. Definitely a worthwhile investment!

This is a terrific buy. Got it during Black Friday. I'm so impressed, as it was so easy to set up, clear, concise information booklet, well packaged and using the QR code, within seconds I was able to register for free, for the 5 year guarantee. I bought Meaco Fan earlier in the year, and I was very impressed with the quality, sturdiness and sleek design of both products. It's going to improve, my winter condensation issues, filter the dog fluff, extract and dry my washing, free my radiators up, and after much, deliberation, like you do, think I have a bargin and a super dehumidifier with hepa filter. With a spare filter thrown in. Also easy to move around, with a sturdy handle, which fits snuggly into the design of the machine. A no brainer. Very very impressed. 5* all the way.

Does a good job for a dehumidifier for the purifier it has hard to know because it doesn’t measure air quality. The App could have more functions, A bit noisier when you pair it with a carbon filter (The company made this known as well). With HEPA filter, it is low noise, I can sleep with the laundry mode on. It has wheels under and they work.

I have a problematic north-facing room which, during the colder months of the year, repeatedly gets condensation on the windows and black mould developing on the walls. Naturally the room climbs to 71% humidity, which classifies as "wet" or "high humidity". Tired of wiping down soaking wet windows every morning, I decided it was time to finally do something about it and invest in a solution. So I bought a MeacoDry Arete Two 10L, with the goal of permanently reducing the humidity in the room and hopefully minimising the amount of condensation on the windows. So how does the Arete Two work? First, you set a target humidity level (e.g. 55%) that you want to reduce the air in your room to. The Arete Two starts dehumidifying and keeps going to -3% below the target (e.g. 52%) at which point the dehumidifier stops (the compressor turns off). Then, naturally, the humidity level in your room will slowly start to rise back up. Once the humidity level is +3% above the target (e.g. 58%) the dehumidifier will start again (the compressor turns on) and so the process repeats. Currently, I'm leaving my Arete Two turned on continuously (which is how it's designed to be used), with the target humidity level set to 45%. According to the instructions, you don't need to empty the 2.5-litre water tank until the water full indicator lights up. However, I like to empty mine out every night, which over a 24 hour period is usually about 1 litre of water. I'm always surprised by how much comes out! What I like about the Arete Two: • It's a good looking product (streamlined and modern) made from high-quality plastics. • The colour scheme (black and white) is smart and makes me think of a Star Wars Stormtrooper or a NASA Space Shuttle. • It's been thoughtfully designed, with several hidden features seamlessly integrated into its form. • It has a hidden handle on top, which you can extend upwards to carry the Arete Two like a suitcase. You wouldn't know it was there, unless someone told you. • It has a hidden positionable louvre on top, which you can lift up to direct the clean dry air coming out. When the louvre is closed, there's no exposed air vent on top of the Arete Two, unlike other dehumidifiers. • It has an integrated cable tidy (on its right side, at the back) which is handy for wrapping up the power cable, to keep any excess off your floor. • It has 4 hidden castor wheels (like a spinner suitcase) which make it very easy to move around (on a hard floor) with just one hand. They're set in from the sides, so you really can't see them unless you put your head down to the floor. • It makes the air in my room feel clean, fresh and more comfortable to be in. I can really notice the difference when I breathe in. • The Control Panel's "chase display" shows the current humidity and the target humidity at the same time, in the form of a progress bar. • The 10L is actually quieter than the 12L (which has a sharper, more noticeable buzz), despite both models having exactly the same noise rating (35 dB). • You don't need to use the free H13 HEPA filter included in the box. Without it, the Arete Two simply acts as a dehumidifier only (it won't dehumidify and purify the air). • The water collected by the water tank can actually be reused to water your (non-edible) plants. • The packaging is recyclable. There's no polystyrene inside the box, only folded cardboard. • It comes with a generous 5-year warranty. Pro Breeze dehumidifiers only come with a 1-year warranty. What I don't like about the Arete Two: • It's surprisingly noisy, despite having a Quiet Mark certification. When the compressor kicks in, it sounds like a mini-fridge, with a deep buzz that resonates through the floor. And as the water tank fills up, there's also the faint noise of water trickling into it. • It's actually quite slow and takes a long time to bring the humidity level down. It of course works quicker if you're not in the room, because breathing creates humidity. • The water tank is an awkward shape to carry when full (you need to use both hands) and would benefit from having a built-in handle (like on the 20L and 25L models). • You have to remember to manually open the louvre, whenever the Arete Two is in use, to allow the clean dry air to flow out of it. • The dust filter needs removing and cleaning once every 2 weeks. Fortunately, it's a life-long part that doesn't need replacing, but it's still annoying to have another thing to maintain. • You can't choose the fan speed (low, medium or high). It's chosen automatically for you, depending on what mode you're in (e.g. Night Mode uses low). • There's no schedule feature, meaning you can't program specific times of the day during which you'd like the Arete Two to operate (e.g. from 7:00am to 11:00pm). • Mine was delivered without any packaging (no brown box) with the DPD delivery label stuck directly to the white Meaco box. "Ships in Product Packaging" is great for reducing waste, but can sometimes result in boxes that arrive dirty and dented. • The "10L" product name is a bit confusing, as it refers to the maximum extraction rate (10.75 litres of water per day), not the size of the water tank (2.5 litres). The 10L and 12L models have exactly the same size water tank. The Arete Two is a fantastic product, and I'm really glad that I bought one. It's a little on the expensive side, but it's solidly built and will last for at least 5 years. Just be careful that you choose the correct size (10L, 12L, 20L or 25L) for the room/area you want to dehumidify, so that the dehumidifier isn't underpowered.

This dehumidifier is quiet and has reduced indoor humidity from 75% to 55% in two days for the entire 2 bedroom house (with high ceilings). It comes with a medical grade HEPA filter and you can also buy carbon filters to remove cooking / pet odors and VOCs. It is also Alexa enabled. It has castors to enable moving to new locations with ease, as it's quite heavy. Highly recommended.

It works extremely well. - Just bought the third 12 litre one to achieve easy coverage throughout the house (brick main 1940s, extension 1980s concrete block, total approx. 125 sqm.) The machine, when in full swing, remains relatively quiet, and is unobtrusive in its beautiful design and neat size. Black mould in our bathrooms now a thing of the past, we let two machines do their job for just over 1 week at the very beginning on full to bring humidity levels down from an average 65% to a steady 50% with the 2.5 litre capacity water tanks having to be emptied up to three times daily. Bed sheets are crisp and dry now and just everything feels drier and warmer. With added air filters, breathing problems during sleep (sneezing, wheezing, coughing) really appear to be a thing of the past. At £ 199 it is not the cheapest but spare filters for the air filter are not expensive (if you choose to put one in, for it can run without I would think … however, looking at our AQI monitors, using the air filter bit also, is highly recommended). The tank capacity of 2.5 litres makes taking the neatly integrated tank out easy. Carrying a 10 kg machine with back problems—despite the beautifully integrated retractable handle—can be a challenge, but with the casters provided an easy roll! Now with three machines we notice that they hardly kick in anymore. We’re keeping the setting at 55% and the monitors AQI and humidity monitors around the house return a reading between 50% to 54%. At night we turn off the upstairs machine by bedroom with en-suite as it will wake us when it kicks in, and we do like a quiet night’s sleep. If you don’t like the light at night, you can turn that off two on the machine or easily in the app. - A word about the Meaco (iOS) app: it works very well indeed (once you figured out how to use it), but the company made a slight error in their manual describing the app set-up process; i.e. do not try and add a machine via the HOME screen + (plus) sign, but click on ROUTINE’s + (plus) sign at the bottom middle of the Home Screen, and take it from there, and it’ll be easy.

Super quiet. So easy to set up. It's pulling a lot of moisture from the air. An added bonus is the house actually feels warmer. I like that I can control it when away from the house with either my Google home or my Alexa app on my mobile. Very happy with it.

This is an excellent little dehumidifier. We already had a larger Meaco model. An essential appliance for our humid flat in NE Scotland. We wanted a smaller quieter model for our bedroom and we are really pleased with this one. It is much quieter and has intelligent features like a sensing fan that runs periodically to check if the compressor needs to run. It has a night mode which works well for us and can be used as an air purifier. The unit came with a complimentary HEPA filter. Great job Meaco!
