Absolutely Great bit of kit
Bought this a while ago and it’s an absolute game changer. UK winter can be especially wet and moist so this has helped. As a student I dry my clothes in my room and this half’s the time it takes to dry. Added bonus of air filtration and due to it size it can fit in most places. Can be a bit noisy but I put it on when I’m out at work etc and that’s plenty

great machine
I purchased this approx a month ago as I have to dry my washing inside and my rooms were getting so wet and damp everywhere. It has stopped all that and my washing dries in half the time. I also think it's better for my health as I haven't been coughing anymore.

Hello Cathy,
The supplier has advised the following for the Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier:
"Assuming you are asking about the HEPA filter in the Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier, it is designed to retain 99.75% of particles as small as 0.3 micrometers in diameter. This includes common airborne impurities such as dust, pollen, pet dander, and other fine particles."

Hello Polo,
Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier
We strongly recommend direct wall plugging to avoid overheating, fire risk, and potential internal damage, as extension cords can struggle with the power draw of dehumidifiers. If you must use one, ensure it's rated for the appliance, grounded (3-prong), in excellent shape, and avoid surge protectors.
Thanks for using Q&A
Hello beebee,
Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier
The Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier is generally considered safe for use in a baby bedroom. It is designed to be quiet and energy-efficient, making it suitable for damp areas and helping to reduce moisture and allergens in the air. However, it's always best to monitor the air quality and ensure that the device is not too close to sleeping areas, as some may prefer to keep it further away from babies for safety reasons. Overall, it is a well-reviewed product that can effectively manage humidity and improve indoor air quality.
Thank you.
Hello Chrissy,
I can advise the following for the Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier:
Apologies, this doesn't have a handle.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Was just a bonus to have that happen
Hey Deni,
I can advise that this dehumidifier is not designed to heat up the room, however the dried air is passed over heating coils before
it is blown into the room as part of the dehumidification process.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Once it has reached the desired humidity it stops but the display stays on, it then re checks the humidity every 20 mins or so. So it doesnt continually run.
Hello,
The Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier does not have a set time for operation; it operates continuously without a specific end time.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hello Ivani P,
Meaco Arete One 12L Dehumidifier & Air Purifier
The water tank holds 2.5 litres, but the frequency it needs to be emptied will depend on the humidity of the room; For dry rooms, it will need to be emptied less often than humid rooms.
