Desperate for a dehumidifier? I've found the deals for you
Wave goodbye to damp, dingy air


Laura Honey
Summer is the best time to bag a dehumidifier deal. Demand tends to be lower, so retailers clear out stock of some of the best dehumidifiers for a fraction of the price. Now, with Amazon Prime Day today, prices are getting slashed even more.
Traditionally, most people think about investing in a dehumidifier in the winter. Actually, if you're smart about it the best dehumidifiers can be really helpful all year round. Some of the most unbearable heatwaves can be made more tolerable with a little less humidity in the air. And, mould, damp, and condensation still lingers all year round, especially in bathrooms.
Over the last few years I, and our team of experts, have been testing and reviewing all the dehumidifiers on the market. I've looked at the best brands, from Meaco to ProBreeze, finding the best dehumidifiers for bathrooms, the best dehumidifiers for bedrooms, and the best small dehumidifiers too.
I've worked out how to tell what size dehumidifier you need and made all the dehumidifier mistakes so that you don't have to. If you want a one-stop shop for all things dehumidifier savings over Amazon Prime Day, here's the place to be.

The best dehumidifier deals to shop now
The newest (and my favourite) dehumidifier to the market, the Meaco Arete Two covers everything. Humid bathrooms? A thing of the past. Dripping cellars? Dry as a bone. It's nothing but brilliant.
This dehumidifier can extract up to 20 litres a day, making it perfect for large or very humid laundry rooms. It has a removable 4-litre tank, an easy-to-use LED touch display and a 24-hour timer. Auto shut-off ensures it won't overflow, and because it's designed to withstand cold temperatures down to 5°C, it's great for chilly building projects or flood dryouts, too.
If you live in a small space and you've been struggling with damp and condensation, this peteite powerhouse is a brilliant investment. It's no bigger than a speaker, but can remove 750ml of water from your air in just a day. I should know, I've tested it.
De'Longhi Tasciugo Ariadry: was £249.99, now £166.99 at Appliances Direct (save £101.98)
It's rare that you'll find a dehumidifier that's both beautiful and effective at removing dampness from your air, but the De'Longhi really can do it all. This even comes with a night mode for your bedroom.
Pro Breeze 20L Dehumidifier: was £179.99, now £159.99 at Pro Breeze (save £20)
£20 isn't the biggest saving, but I would buy this at full price. It has a special laundry mode that gets clothes cupboard dry in hours. It costs 10p to run and comes with incredible capacity. Sound good? It is.
Wood's MDK26 Dehumidifier: was £399.99, now £299 at Lakeland (save £100)
Lakeland aren't showing this as a deal, but it's currenty £100 cheaper than at any other retailer. I've interrogated why and it seems like it's just the place to shop. I love this dehumidifier for seriously damp spaces. I used this in my dripping cellar and it stabilised the humidity overnight. It's sleek, simple, and super effective. Even at full price, it's worth the investment.
Here's a shot of me testing the Wood's 22 dehumidifier
Are dehumidifiers worth the money?
I asked Lucy Searle, our Content Director and a homes and interiors expert if a dehumidifier is a worthwhile investment: "I’m lucky enough to have a sizable laundry room, but it is windowless, with no heating. So, I've had a series of dehumidifiers over the years, which I've found not only at least halve the time needed to dry washing, but which banish that damp, musty smell and, to a degree, heat the room while they are running," she says.
"I've not only used my Meaco Arete (available here at Amazon) consistently throughout the winter for drying washing, I have also used it to dry out my car when it flooded, and my home office when we had a leaky roof. I'd highly recommend a dehumidifier, particularly if you don't want to spend out on a tumble dryer or if you don't have space for one."
As you would expect from an expert in dehumidifiers and hunting down home bargains, Lucy recommends you wait for sales to find the best bargains – the John Lewis sale being a trusted source for discounts.
What to look for when buying a dehumidifier
The key to shopping dehumidifier deals successfully is to shop for the best model for your space and purpose. For instance, if you're lucky enough to have a large laundry room, you'll have the luxury of choosing a larger appliance, while if you're searching with a worry of what size dehumidifier, you'll likely be looking for a far smaller model. The best dehumidifier for a bathroom might need to tackle odours, too while also being a dehumidifier that is good for drying clothes. Similarly, if you're shopping dehumidifier sales to dry out your home after a flood, you'll want the biggest, most powerful model you can afford.
How do you know you're getting a genuinely good dehumidifier deal?
One of the benefits of visiting a page like this is that I will be monitoring the prices of dehumidifiers throughout the year, even around now when it's close to the end of the year and dehumidifier prices are stubborn.
The main reason I continuously monitor prices is that some retailers will make dehumidifier deals and sales look incredible, with a large percentage taken off the RRP. However, if the dehumidifier was originally overpriced, you could still find a better discount or deal elsewhere.
As a rule, price cuts on dehumidifiers sit at around 20-40% off the original RRP, so if you see a dehumidifier deal that offers 50% off or more, you can be fairly sure it's a solid bargain. Before buying, check and compare the size, capacity and features of the dehumidifier. If you know you’re looking for a family-sized dehumidifier, and you see a deal that offers this for around £100 or less, you’d be lucky to snap up the deal before it ends.
When is the best time to get a dehumidifier deal?
If you're shopping now, you're in for a treat, Amazon Prime Day is right around the corner, which was a great time to pick up a dehumidifier deal. If you've not got Prime membership, keep an eye on other retailers, who will be running rival sales anyway. If you miss those deals, shopping for an older model dehumidifier is another way to get a great discount; these are often more reduced than the latest, newest buys.
Are Black Friday dehumidifier deals worth waiting for?
Around the winter, dehumidifier deals are rare to find, but I saw the Swan Dehumidifier reduced by 50% and nearly £200 off Wood's expert dehumidifier in the Black Friday sales. I'm expecting similar reductions for Prime Day, so watch this space.
Are Prime Day dehumidifier deals any good?
Amazon Prime Day is a great time to pick up a good dehumidifier deal. You haven't got long to wait now either, because it's on 8-11th July. I'll keep you up to date on the best prices that I see right here.
Are dehumidifiers cheaper on Cyber Monday?
This year, the Cyber Monday deals were just as good as Black Friday's sales, with hundreds of pounds of Wood's, Meaco, and Swan's models. They're all in the past now though, so you'll need to shop dehumidifier deals in the Prime Day sales.
What is a good price for a dehumidifier?
Outside of sales, dehumidifiers range vastly in price, from as little as £40 for one that's around a litre/day in size, to around £100 for a 12 litre/day family-sized model, to £1,000s for industrial dehumidifier models (see them at Amazon) that are often sold, instead of by litre/day, by air volume or the room's square metreage.
Generally, you are paying for the capacity of the dehumidifier, measured in litres, and you'll need to work out damp levels versus the size of the room to make the right purchase. For example, mild dampness in a small space will be more easily solved than in a larger space.
As a rough guide for a small laundry room with wet washing to dry, look for a 7-litre dehumidifier; a larger laundry room, on the other hand, will benefit from a 12-litre model upwards.
