Our Review Process

Focusing on Real Performance

We evaluate dehumidifiers based on hard data, not just marketing claims. By analyzing the BTU and pints per day ratings, we provide realistic performance expectations. We go beyond the packaging, ensuring that what you see is what you get. If we find that a machine’s pint rating is overly optimistic compared to its BTU, we’ll let you know exactly what to expect in real-world conditions.

Durability and Reliability Assessment

Many dehumidifiers may perform well initially, but most don’t last beyond a season. We go the extra mile to identify models that will stand the test of time. Our reviews prioritize longevity, helping you choose a model that’s built to last for years, rather than just a quick fix.

Thorough Inspection of Parts and Components

Beyond performance, we thoroughly inspect each dehumidifier’s parts and components. We check for weak points that could cause problems down the road. If we find any, you’ll be the first to know so you can make an informed decision about long-term usability.

Sourcing User Feedback

We don’t just rely on our tests—we comb through extensive buyer reviews to gather additional insights. This helps us predict the longevity and user satisfaction of a product, giving you a more accurate idea of what to expect from each model over time.

Transparent, Honest Recommendations

While we strive to recommend the most durable and high-performing models, we acknowledge that no dehumidifier is perfect. We’re honest about potential issues and provide unbiased opinions on each machine. Additionally, we guide you towards product listings that offer solid add-on warranties from trusted providers like Square Trade, so you’re covered in case of unexpected breakdowns.

About The Site

We created this site out of the same frustration that no doubt brought you to it! We had both experienced mold and mildew issues in our houses. We also share a hatred of hot, sweaty weather, so it’s not exactly a surprise that we’re big on dehumidifiers. The problem is, it’s awfully difficult to find anything decent to buy these days.

So, we teamed up to create a site for people to find honest, accurate reviews of dehumidifiers. We saw a definite need out there, even with places like Consumer Reports doing hardcore lab testing. What those sites don’t include is any kind of perspective on longevity. They test units for a week in a lab, and then slap a rating on them. You and I buy those same models, get excited, and then get stuck with a broken machine after a few months.

Our goal with Bye Humidity is to incorporate absolutely all the information you need to make an informed decision. We weed out all the obvious stinkers with dreadful reliability records, and we sift out the underpowered options as well. Once we’ve weeded down the field, we do our own in-depth reviews, then publish them with rankings of our top models!

You can find out more about our review process below.

Most importantly, we differ from the reviewers in common periodicals and online review sites in that we have no relationship with manufacturers. We’re not obligated to review any specific models, or to recommend anything we’re not absolutely sure about. We’re completely objective, and we approach things as consumers, not professional reviewers who gush about gadgets without having to actually consider what it would be like to shell out for a specific model or rely on it in a home.

Finally, we want to encourage you to get in touch with us with anything that’s on your mind! Let us know if you’ve had a bad experience with a model we recommend. Or, suggest a model you think we’ve overlooked. Share your dehumidification tips, and we’ll use them in a how-to article! We want this site to be the best resource it can be, which means we need your help! Head over to the Contact page to find us.
