I just bought a new dehumidifier after the previous one crapped out in...three years. Got it replaced under warranty, though, which cost $8 at the time. The new warranty cost $14. Still a bargain for a new dehumidifier every three years.

I had it set to "comfort" mode, but it seemed to run too often and was very dry, so I set it to 60 percent. One common complaint about these units is that the moisture sensor is close to the water path, which throws off the actual reading.

I'll see how 60 really performs and go from there.
