Where to buy a cheap Dehumidifier?

[MrCramp]

Student daughter needs a humidifier as rented room is damp. Have noticed folk use them on boats (haven't paid much attention as my boat has never been damp). Does anyone know where she can buy a unit that is cheap but will work for 18 months? Thanks.

They seem to be about 100 Euro's here in Portugal. Most hipermercado's have them.

B&Q normally have the best cheap ones /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif also check out Screwfix online

Thats cheaper than in the UK as they appear to be more than £100.

Hi, I got mine on ebay but I noticed my local woolworths were doing full size units for half price, I think they were about £75. Ebay would be cheaper but postage can be a ripoff. Its always damp over here in N. Ireland. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Bought one in Homebase for about £80, They have a range from about £80 to £110 ish as far a I can remember.

Bought mine from B&Q .They were on offer for £53.00 but full price was only £79. It has a 10ltr capacity and can be set to run constantly with a length of hose attached. It's excellent on the boat!

argos, they last 13-18 months! at least running 24/7 so we take them back at 10-11 months tell them its faulty and get an exchange, its not an item that they repair,

We bought ours from Homebase about eighteen months ago for about £20. It has done the job. It would not mop up a pipe burst, but it has helped sort out a damp problem that we had/have.

B&Q £49.98, excellent.

The XM works well, is robust and has a pipe connection for continuous use. We've had ours for two seasons, running constantly through the damp months. It costs around £100, which may be too much for you, but it is a sturdy piece of kit.

B&Q or Homebase . No need to a pay more than £60-70
