SPT SD-40E Energy-Star 40-Pint Dehumidifier Save 25% Off

The SPT SD-40E Energy Star 40 Pint Dehumidifier needs some assembly if you wish to use the continuous drain option. Connecting a garden hose to the back of the unit is not for the faint of heart. The garden hose can be connected to an exterior port but the port is connected the internal drain, over the bucket, by a flimsy plastic tube that is fitted to the drain and the exterior by friction fit. The supplied connector for the garden hose needs to be attached to the body of the dehumidifier but no hardware (small screws for plastic, one supposes) is supplied for this task. If the garden hose in not sufficiently tight the dehumidifier will leak water onto the floor. If you tighten the garden hose enough to get a good seal without securing the connector to the body of the dehumidifier then you risk dislodging the internal friction fit over the bucket. All this could have been avoided if the drain over the bucket was threaded for a garden hose. Then you could thread the garden hose inside body of the dehumidifier and secure it directly to the internal drain.

If you need a small-footprint dehumidifier, I strongly recommend. This "no-name" is actually a Danby I believe; or else, it''s an exact copy as far as I can detect! I previously had a Danby, with great results. I use it in the basement and leave it on continuously. The continuous operation feature comes with a short plastic tube which makes connection to a garden hose easy.

Have had the unit for month or so, worked right out of the box. Fan is a bit louder than anticipated. Is marketed as 40-pint, which equates to 5 gallons, however this is misleading, the water collection reservoir is not 5 gallons, doesn''t even equate to 1 gallon. Appears that if you dump frequently enough then the unit has the "capability" of removing 40 pints of water from the air per day. Am satisfied with the unit''s operation, just felt misled about the reservoir size.

I''ve been using this product going on 2 months in my small condominium apartment in permanently-humid South Florida. I empty it manually. It has a readout of the atmospheric humidity and you can set it to the desired target. No complaints whatsoever. Try it!
