      Really Nice Humidifier
      I was impressed with the quality of this humidifier. It appears to be well made, has lots of features, and has excellent instruction booklet. I had to cut the box off the unit because it is heavy (solid) and I couldn't lift it out of the box. Four wheels make it easy to move around, it needs to be plugged directly into a 3-prong outlet, and needs to be run 24 hours continuously when first using. When you turn it on, it tells you what the humidity is in your room. It was 70 in my basement. As it was running (24 hours) I could see the humidity coming down. The fan does make a good bit of noise, but being in the basement isn't a problem for me. I love the continuous emptying feature. You can hook up a hose to the outlet in the back and it will drain itself when full. It can be set for the time you want it to run and will turn itself off after that amount of time. You can also choose to empty the water bucket. If you use this method, it will turn off when full. Can't think of any negatives.

      Removes the moisture
      I got this to control moisture in a climate controlled room that I want to be real dry at 40-45 degrees. I did set it up in the house to try it out. We are in somewhat of an arid area and we're at the end of a drought year. The unit did get about 3 gallons of water in a twelve hour day. It holds about two gallons of water and is pretty easy to remove. It is capable of putting a hose on it if you have a place to drain it. The only thing I could complain about is it's noise level. It is somewhat of a nuisance sound level.

      Simple but effective
      This dehumidifier is in our finished basement to keep the humidity in check. It's pretty simple with a humidity setting, digital display, high and low fan settings and a timer. I like that it has a drain with hose for bypassing the bucket but I don't use that feature. It's been working great since I plugged it in about 2 weeks ago. The filter is accessed by pulling the bucket out then reaching up inside the cavity to pull it down and out. Not the most convenient set up but manageable. The bucket also has a cover that I haven't seen on other dehumidifiers and I don't know it's purpose but it has to be removed every time the bucket needs to be emptied. But at the end of the day it does its job well so that's what I care about.

      Did a great job reducing humidity levels in my basement
      Our basement is not extremely humid, but we work out in our basement, and it can be uncomfortable during the summer. The dehumidifier was packaged well and all components were included. The instruction manual has a lot of information and setting up simple. I set up the dehumidifier near our exercise and laundry areas. Once turned on, the humidity level in the area was 70%. I set the dehumidifier to a 55% humidity level, and ran the unit. The humidity level started dropping within a few minutes, and was down to the 55% level in about 35 minutes. We have it running on auto, and so far the unit has done its job, maintaining a 55% humidity level in the area. I am very pleased with the performance of the dehumidifier.

      Nicely Designed Dehumidifier
      There are a lot of things to like about this dehumidifier. For one, it is nice and contemporary looking. With the white color, it will fit into any decor. There is a long, six-foot cord, so finding an appropriate place to put it is easy. The water bucket holds a fair amount of water and pulls out easily. It has a nice handle on top so it is easy to carry to the sink to empty. A water level indicator window shows the water level, but there is also an alarm when the bucket needs to be emptied. If you prefer to run the dehumidifier and not have to worry about emptying the bucket, you can use the drain on the back of the unit, hook up a hose, and direct it toward a drain. The controls are very intuitive and well-lit. The controls can be set so that the dehumidifier runs in different increments anywhere from two to twenty-four hours. The only "negative" is that I thought the unit was a little too loud, even on the slow setting. I am using it in my bedroom and I have to turn up the volume on the TV to hear it. I realize that a lot of people probably won't be using it in the bedroom and running it all night long, but I just thought I would point that out. On the plus side, though, the "noise" is similar to a "grey or white noise" machine, so it may help some people sleep. Although this unit is made in China, my experience with Amana products is that they are dependable. It comes with a one-year limited warranty, just in case you have problems.

      Works well, bucket good be bigger and easier to remove.
      This dehumidifer works well and helps keep the humidity in my basement in check. The settings and humidistat display are in 1 percent increments which is nicer than my old dehumidifer that only did 5% incrememnts. It doesn't make too much noise. The air output is on top which seems to make more sense than ones that blow out the back. It also gives me more options on where to set it up with good air flow. There's an output on the back that will bypass the bucket. It will take a standard garden hose thread. The bucket is a bit small, I have to empty it out every day in the summer so I'll probably get a condensate pump and use a hose to bypass the bucket. There is a clear window to see how much water is in the bucket which is nice. I find the bucket hard to remove though. There is a washable filter to help keep out large dust particles from the condenser coils. It's fairly easy and straightforward to use and includes a timer. It's sucking out a lot of humidity which is great.

      Great Dehumidifier!!
      I got this due to our wet summer in MI and put it in my basement at 50%. Seem’s my basement was around 67% humidity. After not even 22 hours later I had a full bucket of water I had to dispense. So glad it has the continuous drain option for a standard 5/8 hose. I ran a 3ft hose that drains into my sump pump and now it continuously drains and only shuts down when at the desired 50% pre-set humidity. My basement feels a lot more “fresh” with less humidity. Very happy with the Amana Dehumidifier!

      High Output Model with good features
      This dehumidifier is easy to use. It gives you a timer option if you want it to run for 2, 4, 6 hours and then shut off. You can also set it to shut off based on humidity level. I like that you can hook up a hose to it and run it directly into a drain so you don't have to worry about emptying the holding container. Otherwise the holding container is quite large if you are not able to hook a hose to it. It is a high output model but the trade off is that it is heavier (about 40 lbs.) and a little noisier than smaller models. I have it in the basement so the sound doesn't bother me. This model also looks nice.

      Love it!
      This gorgeous white dehumidifier by Amana is a great asset to any home. Standing 22 inches inches high, 12 inches deep and and 13 inches wide, it takes up almost no space and is pretty quiet. It features an adjustable humistad so you can be comfortable at any setting. Equiped with rolling casters, it can easily be moved from room to room, and with the auto shut off indicator, lets you know when the 35 pint bucket is full and needs to be emptied. You have a choice of emptying the bucket manually, or attaching the drain hose (included: see directions). The machine has two fan speeds, a 24 hour timer and easy to see LED touch controls. The directions are clear and easy to understand. Note: tho the instructions don't specify, I found when emptying the bucket, pulling out one side at a time seems to work best for me.
