I just replaced a large 2 year old LG dehumidifier with this Danby 70 pint model. My basement is a large work area, 2000 sq. ft. with walls and doors. A wood shop is on one side and a recording studio on the other. I use this on continuous operation in the recording studio emptying into a sealed sump pump. This model is quieter than the LG unit it is replacing and removes 3 times as much moisture in the same time frame. I do have to turn it off when recording, it's not that quiet but the compressor is not as loud as the fan. I still have a 65 pint model LG in the wood shop. The 2 units keep the basement around 40-45%. The Danby has no trouble and can get dryer if I wanted. The LG has a slightly smaller area to cover and struggles to keep up. Also Achoo Allergy's service department was able to send me a plug needed for the continuous drain mode on the Danby quickly and at no charge! Thanks guys!!

    Danby DDR7009REE Premier Dehumidifier
Reviewed by: mold problems from Massachusetts

This dehumidifier has done wonders on drying out my downstairs. I own a split level and I have had troubles with mold in the downstairs rooms during rainy or humid times. This took the moisture out almost immediately. The only downfall I found it the fan does not shut off when the wanted humidity level is reached. However there is a timer for automatic shut off which somewhat helps with this if you can time it correctly. Overall I am very pleased with this item, especially over many of the others we had looked at. Delivery and pricing was right on as well.

    Dry Basement
Reviewed by: A. Arbeider from Lehigh Valley, PA

I called and asked for a recommendation for my 1100 sq. ft. basement which is damp and mildewy but never has wet walls or rarely has a trickle of water after heavy spring rains.
The Danby 70 pint was suggested as the model that would satisfy our needs.
It arrived quickly and we unpacked it and were wowed by the simplicity and ease of use and the remote and immediately set it up. First we ran it to see how much water it was pulling and in a few hours the reservoir was full and needed to be emptied. Then my husband set it up to drain automatically so we did not have to remember to empty the reservoir. The supplied drain hose was not a problem for us, our previous and poorly made dehumidifier used a garden hose. I cannot see a decline in in the performance because this uses a plastic ribbed hose.
Within days our basement was completely dry and the mildew smell was gone. At this point we have to remove a few items that were damaged from mold before the Danby was purchased. So far so good and it runs like a quiet dream.
One day it was rather humid and warm upstairs. So we carried it up to the main level and sat it in the living space and the room felt dry in less than 30 minutes.

Danby Premiere 70 Pint Dehumidifier DDR7009REE Dehumidifiers
Danby dehumidifiers have long been the leader in home dehumidification,
and Consumer Reports have rated Danby as a Best Buy for large
capacity dehumidifiers. This year Danby continues this award
winning design with the Premiere line of dehumidifiers. These models differ in capacity and square footage serviced,
but each offers efficient water and moisture removal at a
reasonable price. In keeping with prior Danby models, the DDR7009REE
dehumidifier is one of the best on the market for home dehumidification.
What I liked about the Danby DDR7009REE Dehumidifiers
Quite simply, the Danby 70 pint removes enormous amounts of water from
the air. Although we tested this dehumidifier during the hot and humid
months of summer, we were surprised when we found ourselves emptying
the water reservoir several times throughout the day. In
total, the DDR7009REE dehumidifier removed nearly 5 1/2 gallons of water
just during an 8 hour test period. Granted, we realize that the conditions in your
home are not as extreme as those under which we tested, but the sheer
volume of moisture collected was the most impressive feature
of these models. Even though this Danby is rated to remove 70 PPD (pints per day), our
tests show that this model can exceed this under extreme conditions.
The ease of use was also a decided advantage. All of the Danby
Premiere models provide users with full electronic controls, programmable humidity settings,
a timer and a remote. When compared to a separate humidity gauge, the
humidity readings on the Danby showed some deviation but good compared to the humidistats built into other home dehumidifiers. Auto defrost
and restart functions allow the unit to defrost itself when the coils freeze and restart after a power outage.
Despite running non-stop during our testing periods, the Danby
models are all quiet for their size. Regardless of fan setting, they
produced less noise than comparable models. Additionally, all of the
Danby dehumidifiers we sell are Energy Star compliant and use less electricity
than most of their competitors. This combined with a non-ozone
depleting refrigerant makes the Danby dehumidifiers some of the best
for the environment and your wallet.
All models also offer a direct drain line to save the aggravation of
having to manually empty the tank, and the inclusion of 6.5 ft. of drain hose is a plus. This would be particularly useful
if you were using it in a basement or somewhere near your HVAC drain
line where you could effectively tie the dehumidifier line into the
existing drain line. Regardless of whether you use it in your
basement or living room, the drain line saves mess and hassle.
What I did not like about the Danby DDR7009REE Dehumidifiers
Across the web you will find a lot of information showing these Danby models effective for extremely large areas. Literature
from Danby rates the Danby 70 as effective for up to 4200 sq. ft. However our tests have found this to be likely less than what Danby
advertises. Across our
site we have adjusted Danby coverage area by taking into account our product testing results and each units individual CFM
(cubic feet per minute - fan speed). Though the Danby 70 pint has a CFM of 324, to ensure adequate water removal of your space we recommend
this model for areas around 1000 sq. ft. or less. Depending on your specific conditions, you can likely cover more area, but we would rather
err on conservative rather than have you purchase a unit then not have it meet your expectations.
There is little doubt these are heavy. On low pile carpet and hard
surfaces the casters save you a good deal of trouble when moving
them, but the 70 pint dehumidifier is certainly not an appliance you want to be moving
often.
Overall, the Danby Premiere DDR7009REE is the best room dehumidifier on the
market for larger areas. Our testing of the Danby Premiere models
gave us excellent results with few drawbacks. The performance of the
Danby dehumidifiers is what makes them the best available while the
ease of use, convenient features and reliability are what keeps
pushing Danby to the front of the line when it comes to home dehumidification.
