The De'Longhi DEX216F Dehumidifier is full of features. We like the compressor design which ensures a low noise level of 37dB and also causes the dehumidifier to be extremely efficient with energy. One feature of interest is the laundry function which lets you dry sheets/clothes indoors, avoiding pollen getting on them outside.
