For two years running the Meaco 20L Low Energy Dehumidifier has come top of the Which? Best Buy table and is their top ranking dehumidifier, but what do other reviewers think? well we have
already published the You Tube review which gave a glowing report on the dehumidifier so that is two out of two but could we make it three in a row when Dehumidifier Reviews HQ ran their critical eye over the 20L Low Energy?
We always worry when we know that there is a review coming out because no-one likes a bad review or negative comments so once again we were nervous waiting for the finished article. here are some quotes from their review;
Looking at the rest of the case it smacks of high quality. The plastic has a sturdy, high quality feel to it and everything is incredibly well constructed and doesn’t have the flimsy, bendy feel some other units can have.
it’s little touches like this which really shows Meaco’s commitment to providing high quality, easy to use solutions for their customers.
Generally speaking the more powerful the dehumidifier the more energy it will consume, and the more it will cost to use. This is not the case with the 20L. It is probably the most energy efficient dehumidifiers available right now and costs considerably less to run than its peers.
So how did the 20L perform? Superbly well! At the time we switched on the dehumidifier the humidistat on the device read a very damp 86% relative humidity (RH) within a few minutes the 20L had the humidity down to a very respectable 70% and held it at this level whilst we continued to simulate cooking. Once we finished ‘cooking’ the 20L quickly got on top of the humidity and brought it down to 56% within only half an hour – this is around the generally agreed ideal level for most homes. Within about 40 minutes virtually all of the condensation had gone from the windows. This is incredibly impressive and shows this device should be able to cope with the worst most homes could have to throw at it.
and their conclusion was;
It’s hard not to be impressed with the Meaco 20L Platinum. It literally sucks water from the air and had no problem dealing with the harsh test conditions we put it through. It is really easy to use, comes packed with energy saving features and can be left to run virtually unattended. When compared to other refrigerant dehumidifiers we believe this one comes out on top and, because it is backed by Meaco’s fanatical support, is a perfect buy which you can have complete confidence in.
Once again we are very proud of our products and it is great when the hard work is appreciated. You can read the full review here and find out more about the Meaco 20L Low Energy on our product page here.
