This tiny thing is incredible. I was so desperate for the bad smell and mildew in my master bathroom. The problem is I have a master closet attached to the bathroom where I keep all towels and clothes. After few months I noticed a bad smell in everything with mildew everywhere. Although I have a vent in the bathroom that I keep on all the time . It is not effective at all. I live in rental therefore, I had to find a solution. I searched a lot until I found this dehumidifier. After reading the reviews and its decent price, decided to give a try. I do not regret it!!!!! I was anazed by how much water it takes from the bathroom. It is small and does not need any space. It shuts off automatically when the reservoir is full. I keep it on all day because it is so quite that sometime I have to check if it is on. After more than month of round the clock use, my bathroom is dry!! No nasty odors in my clothes and towels. The mildew almost disappeared. I am so happy with it. I wi get another one for the smaller bathroom. If you are on the fence, just get it.
