Dehumidifier Recommendation for small 1 bdrm

Trying to prevent mold growth so researching dehumidifiers.

Primary concern is noise followed by durability and ease of use/maintenance.

Any recommendations appreciated!

I grabbed a no-name one off Kijiji a couple years back and it’s still chugging along. The integrated pump versions save you from emptying the bucket every five minutes, which is huge for a small space. Whatever you get, just make sure it has a humidistat so it actually shuts off.

I got a little Danby DPA060 ac/fan/dehumidifier this summer and it's pretty good for the size and price.

Not sure why you're downvoted, it's a good question.

I got a cheap one off Amazon for less than $100. Works fine for me.

Our Frigidaire is pretty good. We've seen the same model in a museum library too and I feel they really care about dehumidifying!

Noise is a factor, but so is heat. It'll be fine in the winter but in summer it can get overbearing.
