Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of WindChaser MDH-P Compact Dehumidifier
Customer Review: It simply doesn't dry out air...
Summary: 1 Stars
I receveid this today, and it so happened that I had a small bedroom that was at just under 80F and just over 80%RH (the numbers this unit is supposed to be good to remove 600ml per 24h). My thermometer and hygroometer were accurate.
After running for 12h, total moisture removed was ~40ml, less than expected by teh specs (which should have been in the neighborhood of 300ml, possibly a bit higher due to RH).
The noise level didn't bother me much, but the efficiency of roughly 1/8th of which is is specified as performing certianly did.
Customer Review: noisy and ineffective
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this product to use in a small bedroom where I store guitars and other musical instruments. Even with continuous use, it made virtually no improvement in the room's humidity as measured by an hygrometer in the room. It did remove small amounts of water, but not enough to make any difference in the room's overall humidity level. Its fan is also quite noisy and makes enough vibration to be heard in downstairs rooms.
This might be suitable for a very small enclosure, such as a closet or small bedroom, but that's all.
Customer Review: EXCELENTE DESHUMIDIFICADOR
Summary: 5 Stars
Excelente Deshumidificador es muy silencioso y es facil hacer su mantenimiento al momento de reemplazar la bandeja que recolecta el agua extraida del aire. Lo recomiendo, ademas ya podemos respirar mejor sentimos la mejoria desde el primer dia que lo instalamos. Saludos..........Rafael Quero de Cabimas, Venezuela.Customer Review: Worked well

Summary: 2 Stars
This dehumidifier happily chugged along for two or three days drawing an impressive amount of moisture from my small bedroom, until the power supply burned out for no apparent reason--it was uncovered and the room wasn't too hot. I thought, fine, Windchaser appears to offer replacement power supplies so I won't be out $60. So I emailed them about my problem, and I got nothing but a referral to the retailer who wants me to pay for return shipping, which is ridiculous. Why should I lose a dime on a defective product? Anyway, I had to ask why I couldn't just buy a replacement power supply, and they said they were out of stock on that kind for an unknown amount of time. Why offer these replacements if you're not going to make them available? It is so disappointing that I took this risk of buying a product that had only two reviews, but it was made to sound so wonderful, and now I regret it. I'm still waiting to see if the warranty on the product makes any difference. The way things have been going, I'm not holding my breath.
Update: After finally calling instead of emailing Windchaser, who would not put me through to a supervisor, I was told to mail back the defective part for a replacement. I spent the money to ship this defective part PROTECTED BY A WARRANTY over a month ago and have yet to hear from Windchaser regarding the status of my claim. This is unacceptable! I have received better customer service from no-name Asian manufacturers.
