compressor failure

Worked fine for the first summer season but next year it ran without collecting any water. The compressor had failed after one season. It is a use for a year and throw it away product.

Product stopped dehumidifying after 15 months

Purchased the AD400 in September 2011 and it worked well until January 2013 a period of 15 months. My AD400 is very clean inside and out - looks new. Took the cover out and ran it. Compressor comes on but no dehumidification. Condenser coils are not cold, but room temperature. I assume it has lost its refrigeration. According to Air-n-Water Customer Service the unit has a manufacturer's warranty of 12 months and that the refrigerant can not be recharged. Reading about others that have also had this problem I can't recommend this product due to it's lack of dependability.

Rober - 06/11/2013

Until it stopped it worked well

The Machine was quiet and seemed to be efficient. Then it stopped sometime after 20 months with a compressor failure. The machine is made in China but there are no US designated repair facilities. The compressor became very hot to the touch but no cooling occurred. With no repair option the only choice is to buy a new dehumidifier but, for-sure, it will not be a NewAir product. Hopefully the next machine will be made in the USA with the option to have it fixed if the need arises. This is an awful lot of money for a throw-away household appliance.

It is definitely pulling moisture out of the air!

The product is working well...looks good and I recommend the product to other potential buyers. Some issues - bucket capacity is a little too small so I hooked up a drain line on two units. One works great and the other one has leaked on me a few times. (Its possible gravity is working against me because the floor is not level. After a few tweaks, the jury is still out. Wish it wasn't that sensitive however,,the floor isn't THAT uneven)

Satified with dehumidifier but issues with shipping and handling

I purchased this dehumidifier model in December 2009 my first one based on the reviews. It was quiet and no problems for two years then I knock it over on the carpet and had some problems. Purchased the same model in January 2012. My first one was quieter and would give it 5 stars. The second one I would give 4 stars because it is not as quiet. My only real issue is when the first one arrived it had a crack around one wheel. Reported it to Air-N-Water and they replaced it including shipping. Almost a year has passed since I purchased the second one. I was on vacation before Christmas and had it turned off. When I returned home I wiped it off and turned it on its side and discovered a crack in the bottom plastic plate. I never bothered to examine the bottom of the one I purchased in January 2012 and don't know if I have any recourse after almost a year. I would say to a purchaser examine the product after receipt of the dehumidifier because after receiving 2 dehumidifiers with cracks in the bottom the product is being mishandled by whoever is sending it or it is damaged during shipping. I work in a warehouse and see product mishandled but I see the way UPS handles merchandise and it is likely the cracks happened this way. Air-N-Water did make good on my first purchase and I give them 5 stars for that. On a side note after a year of sitting on the sidelines I plugged in #1 and tried for a few days without a hitch.

Starg - 11/22/2012

Low noise is the best part of the machine

While I loved the compact design and low noise of the ad-400 compared to the other dehumidifiers I've owned, I couldn't believe how small the water tank was. The water tank was poorly designed, difficult to remove and when full the water splashes out because it fills up right to the top, making it difficult to carry to the sink. It was advertised as a 40 pint dehumidifier but after reading the small print it is "up to 40 pints a day" not 40 pint size tank. Even though I have used it for three days non-stop the humidity remains between 64-68, not good considering it is being used in a small sitting room. My old machine had the humidity down to 40 in a relatively short amount of time. Since I just received it, I am considering returning it.

Quiet

My AD-400 is great. Extremely quiet and dries the room perfectly. Installed in garage, it can be 99% humid outside and 40% inside. Would highly recommend.

Disappointing Performance

The good: It's attractive, easy to use (even though it doesn't work well!), and the noise level is reasonable, though still louder than I expected and louder than my old Soleus.

Great Product - Very Satisfied

Overall I'm really satisfied with this dehumidifier. It has been removing lots of moisture , very quiet and extremely easy to use. I'm using it in a basement that is very damp, and it has really improved the air.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
