🌧️ Ivation IVADM45 Intelligent Dehumidifier - Powerful Mid-Size Thermo-Electric Unit with Auto Humidistat for Small Spaces up to 100 Sq Ft Review

I first purchased this product in 2015 for a large master bathroom that always felt damp to the touch due to insufficient air conditioning in that corner of the house. The IVADM45 dehumidifier has been working continuously since 2015 to fix this problem without any problems or failures. I drain the tank about every 2 weeks. The air in this bathroom is now as comfortable as the rest of the house and mold or mildew will never be a problem in the shower. Finally last week the device stopped…

Has a lower noise level than the Ivation ERSDM18 mini dehumidifier so I'm much happier with it. As with the Mini, the first thing I did was remove the hard-to-handle rubber drain plug. This is a solid device that works well and looks nice. The relative humidity setting is a great feature. Edit -> I was hoping to get a year of this but 7 weeks doesn't work. Sorry to mislead anyone, I hope no one bought this piece of junk because of my previous 5 stars. The fan motor bearing is worn and making

Great for a 14ft caravan. In three days the water tank was half full. It made camper life bearable. With the air conditioning running all the time, the humidity was 98% without air conditioning. After three days of continuous operation, it was about 70%. The first day it could be 55%, then it got hotter in the camper (outside temperature was 85 degrees) and my breathing (I cooked outside and showered in the camp shower) gradually stayed around 70%. At night it was more stable by 65-70%. I am…

This is a good product for a small space. I installed this machine in my Airstream to control humidity during winter storage. The trailer is 140 square feet larger than advertised (100 square feet). Humidity dropped by 15 percentage points. Because the trailer is a double metal skin with rubber grommets on the windows and doors, performance is less than I expected. I would expect that if the trailer was 100 square feet. feet, performance would be 22 percentage points lower, which still wouldn't

Purchased for my RV. When the outside temperature drops, we get a lot of condensation on the windows. I left it on for 36 hours and there was about half an inch of water in the tank (about a full cup, 8 ounces). Tried a few times. Without change. I think the statement 25 ounces (1.5 pints) per day is a gross exaggeration. Also, it was very noisy all the time and had no air filter at all. I sent him back. Instead, I bought a 13-pin Ivation small area desiccant dryer. More expensive and slightly…

I had a real problem with humidity in a small greenhouse. I got this unit to replace another dehumidifier that didn't seem to have had any effect. This dropped my overnight relative humidity from 72 to my target of 45. So quiet that you really have to focus to hear if it's purring or not. This seems accurate as it matches my room humidistat to within 3% RH. The water tank is very easy to pull out, which automatically turns off the device until you put it back in. It only needs to be emptied…

I've searched the web for the best dehumidifiers and this unit was one of the top 5 on these sites, describing it as a "powerful mid-size" (probably , copied Revane's description). I was looking for something for a single room so I bought it. For a dehumidifier it is quite quiet and small. I've had this device for about a month. It works but is minimally efficient. For example, I used this unit in my medium sized bedroom for 3 consecutive days with the humidity controller set to 50. It ran…

To be honest I'm not impressed. I have a 12 x 13 x 8 (1240ft^3) workspace where I store hydrophilic 3D printing filaments. I originally purchased an Ivation IVADM45 (advertised for a 2200ft^3 room) to maintain relative humidity at or below 40% RH. The expected task did not complete. In fact, it only condenses about 4-6 ounces of water per day rather than the advertised 20 ounces. So I added an Ivation GDM30 (also advertised for a 2200 ft^3 area). Between the two at each end of the room, I…

We bought this to control the humidity in our caravan and to prevent the materials from deteriorating over time. We want to keep the humidity below 50% indoors. Based on data collected over 1 week we have determined that this device is simply not up to the task and that the description overstates the capabilities of this device. Our trailer is a 27 foot Airstream, about 180 square feet of living space and 1100 cubic feet or so. We found that operating the device had little to no effect on…
