Kenmore 70-Pint Dehumidifier 54701

Date Published: 5/1/07

If you're in the market for your first new dehumidifier in quite a few years, you might be delighted to find out that they're not all big dials, clunky design, and wood-grained finish anymore. The Kenmore 70-Pint Dehumidifier 54701 (Sears item 04254701000) features a sleek -- but basic -- design that incorporates an easy-to-operate electronic touch panel in a white, less-than 50-pound package.

This model pulls 70 pints of moisture from the air in 24 hours. It comes with a 22-pint bucket that's easily removed from the front of the unit. It also has an indicator that tells you when it's time to empty the bucket -- and turns off once it's full. The dehumidifier comes with automatic humidistat control, which cycles the unit on and off depending on whether the room has reached the desired humidity level.

The Kenmore 70-Pint Dehumidifier 54701 is Energy Star-compliant and has a handy auto-restart feature that kicks in if the power goes off and on. It's covered by a 1-year limited warranty.


Pros: Updated design, easily removable bucket
Cons: Price
