Don't forget to open the vent flap!
Works well, covers a large area, and it's very quiet during operation.
I wonder if some of the people complaining that it didn't work forgot to open the vent flap. See the pics.
It's also smaller than I expected but that's a good thing because it's not obtrusive.
I wish it had a remote but beside that, I'm very happy with it.
UPDATE AFTER 3 MONTHS:
Still working awesome! Make sure you do take the filter out every week or so and dust it off. I run this almost 24/7 at 50% humidity and it fills up the water overnight.
I placed in the same room as my thermostat and ever since I did that, my lower and upper floors have similar temperatures. Before the dehumidifier, my second floor would get really warm while the first floor remained pretty cold. I keep it running in the lower fan speed setting since it's always running.
Depending on your setup, I'd probably recommend you placing it in your coldest area, and this is because the air that comes out of the vent is slightly heated.
Also, turn it off if you open your house windows or doors for an extended period of time so that you're not dehumidifying your neighborhood and wasting your energy :)
