It sits by itself in the basement. It seems content. It subsists on the moisture it draws from the air, most of which it expels into the sump pump. Which brings me to a question: Why — even though I attached a hose to it, does the tank eventually fill up? That is not a complaint. Merely an observation.  We did have water in the basement at one time. It is now dry. And that’s what it is all about. The wifi option is terrific. I’ll check that tank right after I send this. And I bet it won’t need to be emptied quite yet. Really, isn’t not having to think about it all you really want in a dehumidifier? That, and for it to suck. Water out of the air, I mean. Silently. Seemingly without effort. Uncomplaining.

Five enthusiastic stars.
