Review: Awesome Product - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Dehumidifier – Quiet, Efficient, and Worth Every Penny! I couldn’t be happier with this Waykar dehumidifier. It has made a noticeable difference in my home by pulling a surprising amount of moisture out of the air, leaving everything feeling much more comfortable. It runs quietly, so it’s not disruptive, even when it’s operating throughout the day. The unit is easy to set up, simple to use, and the controls are very user-friendly. I also appreciate the large water tank and the option for continuous drainage, which makes maintenance easy. Within just a day or two, I noticed less musty odor, and the humidity level stayed exactly where I set it. If you’re looking for a reliable, energy-efficient dehumidifier that performs as advertised, I highly recommend the Waykar. It’s been a great investment, and I would definitely purchase it again.
Review: Exceptional Moisture Control Paired with Rare First-Class Support - Managing excess moisture in expansive spaces requires a heavy-duty solution, and this high-capacity unit tackles the challenge with remarkable efficiency. Engineered to pull up to 120 pints of moisture per day from environments spanning up to 6,000 square feet, it quickly and effectively transforms damp, heavy air into a crisp, comfortable atmosphere. It is an ideal asset for challenging zones like large basements, crawlspaces, or high-humidity living areas, allowing users to customize target humidity levels between 30% and 80% via an intuitive digital touch control panel that monitors ambient conditions in real time. What truly elevates this unit above standard commercial-grade appliances is the thought put into its operational design and efficiency. It carries a 2025 Energy Star certification, ensuring that its substantial performance does not translate into exorbitant utility bills. It also boasts sophisticated internal maintenance features, including automatic defrosting to prevent coil icing in cooler spaces and an internal self-drying cycle that protects the longevity of the machine. For drainage, users can utilize the onboard 3.5-liter collection tank or simply connect the included drainage hose for continuous, gravity-fed operation. Mobility is seamlessly addressed through smooth, omnidirectional casters and a recessed top handle, making it surprisingly portable despite its robust build. While the machine’s performance, quiet operation, and adjustable air-distribution louvers are deeply impressive, the post-purchase experience is equally outstanding. In an era where meaningful technical support is notoriously difficult to find, reaching out with a customer service inquiry yielded an immediate, accurate, and highly informed response. This rare level of responsive after-sales care, combined with the product's underlying structural technology and extended warranty coverage, makes this investment a definitive, stress-free victory for home moisture management.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use a regular garden hose I have one hooked up to the one that is now defected???**
A: No, no and no!  This dehumidifier looks good... but we were EXTREMELY disappointed that you couldn't use a regular hose for the continuous drain function.  A flimsy plastic tube comes with the unit for continuous draining... and it is not NEARLY long enough to do any good.  You can't simply hook up a garden hose... there is no standard garden hose fitting on the unit.  You can ONLY use the flimsy short plastic tube that comes with the unit.  We tried multiple "fixes" to make it work, but all of our efforts were in vain.  I would not buy this dehumidifier again simply for this reason alone.  POOR engineering!

**Q: Even if the hose is connected, it is connected to manual drain  How can I get it to connect with a hose?**
A: For mine I had to unscrew the cap to the drain AND then remove a small black rubber plug which blends in too well (which I missed at first) then hook up the drain hose. Then it went to continuous drain without problems and there is no water in the bucket.

**Q: Makes a loud noise and the case was cracked. What should I do ? when it arrived**
A: Mine wasn’t damaged and isn’t loud. It must have happened during shipping. I would contact the returns department where you purchased it. I’m sure they would make this right. You would be very pleased with it if it wasn’t damaged I’m sure because it works great.

**Q: Will this dehumidifier cover the whole house?**
A: Depends on how big the house is. If it's similar in size to what the machine is rated for, then yes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Waykar 80 Pints dehumidifier saves space and is quiet
*by J***N on July 25, 2026*

This product replaced another older unit and has done a great job at keeping our basement dehumidified. Ease of setup and of use including the drip function which allows you not to have to worry about emptying the tray. It's smaller than our previous unit and fits great in the space we needed it for. When we had questions, the customer service was prompt and responsive both through a call and even with text! It works, is quiet, and we don't have to worry.
