PureMate 20L Dehumidifier Review

The PureMate 20L Dehumidifier is a compact, stylish and highly functional appliance. With a powerful extraction rate of up to 20 litres per day, it easily takes care of moisture, protecting against damp, condensation and the growth of mould. It has a number of modes that make it highly versatile, namely laundry mode for the indoor drying of clothes/linen, sleep mode for disabling all bright lights, and two fan speeds.

The PureMate 20L Dehumidifier has a handy humidity indicator on the front, changing depending on the room's current humidity level. It lights up red for high humidity (more than 70%), green for ideal humidity (50% to 70%) and blue for low humidity (less than 50%). We like how it offers continuous drainage and a water tank, giving you the choice of both. Note that this appliance can also be scheduled with the 24 hour timer and moved around easily thanks to its castor wheels.

Specification

We now look at the features:

• Suitability - The PureMate 20L Dehumidifier is designed for houses with up to 5 bedrooms. It removes excess moisture in the air at a rate of up to 20 litres per day. This high performance makes it ideal for discouraging the growth of mould, as well as preventing damp and condensation. Not only this, but it also keeps cereal and bread fresher for longer and reduces the chance of equipment (such as computers and tools) from going rusty. It operates effectively in temperatures between 5 and 32 degrees Celsius.
• Laundry Mode - The dehumidifier also dries laundry. This is very useful during winter when it's too wet outside, and also during summer when it's hay fever season.
• Two Fan Speeds - You can choose from two fan speeds. One is quieter and the other is more powerful.
• Drainage - The dehumidifier features the ability to extract moisture through a tube straight down the drain. There's also a 6.5 litre water tank which, if used, needs to be emptied every now and again.
• Sleep Mode - A useful "Sleep" mode turns off all of the display lights so as not to interrupt your sleep.
• Humidity Indicator - There's a three tier indicator light on the front of the appliance. It lights up red when the humidity exceeds 70%, green when the humidity is between 50% and 70%, and blue when the humidity is less than 50%.
• 24 Hour Timer - The unit has a 24 hour timer so that you can schedule when it turns on and off.
• Portability - The PureMate 20L Dehumidifier is highly portable thanks to its lightweight compressor and four castor wheels which can be installed and removed as needed. It's also compact and therefore easy to store.
• Dimensions / Weight - The unit measures 34cm x 24cm x 57cm and weighs 14.5kg.

Summary

Overall, the PureMate 20L Dehumidifier is a sleek, stylish and modern appliance. It removes moisture with ease, extracting up to 20 litres per day, which is more than sufficient for rooms with severe damp, mould and condensation issues. We particularly like its versatility, namely its ability to dry laundry, its sleep mode and the choice of two fan speeds. We rate the PureMate 20L Dehumidifier 4.5 out of 5 stars.
