Pleasantly surprised! My husband was convinced due to its tiny size that this dehumidifier would not work for the space...I am glad to report he was wrong. I have this running in the finished part of my basement in my craft area and I love it. It has definitely worked well in keeping that damp feel out of my space. I was surprised that it also has a nice soft glowing night light...I didnt read the description close enough to know it did that and glad to have it. I would definitely recommend this dehumidifier if you have a small area like mine.
