Despite having basic controls to contend with, it did its job quickly.
However, it could be improved with an app to control it remotely.
The 50-Pint Dehumidifier is simple to use, powerful, and needs no app to download.

But thats really about its only shortcoming.
It’s also available for purchase now through frigidaire.com, or through other retailers likeHome Depot for $279also.
If you order through Frigidaires website, youll get free delivery, and financing through Klarna.
Frigidaire also offers a one year warranty on this dehumidifier.
Its intended to control humidity in larger spaces up to 1,200 square feet.
A front-loading water bucket holds almost two gallons of water and is easy to pull out for quick emptying.
That means its a good choice for chilly basements or garages.
The controls are mounted on the top of the unit and are very simple to use.
Simple push-button operation complements a small screen that indicates the current and set humidity levels.
With the shower running, Im able to get the humidity level up to around 90 percent.
Thats very quick, and not surprising given the size of this unit.
The Frigidaire dehumidifier got the humidity level to 35% in just 20 minutes.

All of the humidity measurements on the unit matched up almost perfectly with my Alexa air quality monitor.
So the Frigidaire 50-Pint Dehumidifier works exceptionally quickly, especially on the highest fan setting.
Its ideal for large spaces, or very humid spaces that youll need to get under control quickly.

Thats on a par with other Energy Star-certified units in this size range such as theHoneywell 50 Pint Dehumidifier.
During our tests, this worked quickly in small spaces, and gave a decent performance.
The only thing it lacked was an app, however, it did well to get the job done.

Thats on a par with other large dehumidifiers Ive tested.
Its no-frills design is super simple to operate, and it pulls a lot of moisture very quickly.
It excels in super-damp environments.

The trade-off for all that power is size, weight, and noise.
The only other real drawback is the lack of an app to control it remotely.
