Pros

Cons

Construction and Design

The Vremi VRM010184N Dehumidifier has a simplistic design finished with white, which allows it to blend in seamlessly with diverse home décors. This unit also features gray highlights on its sides, successfully breaking the monotony of the white finish.

Designed to withstand rough handling, this moisture extractor comprises resilient ABS material that resists scratches and dents while protecting the machine’s inner components from damage. This unit comes with a 12-month warranty covering performance and parts.

• Height— 24.3 Inches
• Width— 11 Inches
• Length— 16.6 Inches
• Weight— 41.6 Pounds

The above dimensions indicate that the Vremi VRM010184N Dehumidifier is quite bulky. Luckily, it’s designed for large rooms, meaning that it won’t overcrowd your space when using it in vast basements, living rooms, or offices.

This moisture extractor is also rather heavy at 41 pounds, but it comes with pocket handles and hidden casters that make portability easy. You can push or lift the appliance effortlessly when the need to move it arises.

Power and Dehumidification Capacity

With an impressive capacity to cover spaces as large as 4500 sq. ft., the Vremi VRM010184N Dehumidifier is a true powerhouse determined to keep expansive rooms mold-free. We appreciate this unit’s high moisture extraction capacity of 50 pints per day, making it a suitable addition to large leaky basements, grow rooms, and warehouses.

• This unit comes with Energy Star label for its ability to draw moisture from your space without gobbling power.
• We love the filter that prevents foreign objects from getting inside your unit where they could otherwise cause damage. The filter also traps airborne particulates, minimizing pollution in your indoor air.
• This dehumidifier also boasts an auto-defrost mechanism that deices the coils to keep the unit effective even under temperatures as low as 41°F.
• It also features an integrated humidistat that provides you with real-time humidity readout and regulates your indoor moisture automatically.

Setup and Usability

Using the Vremi VRM010184N Dehumidifier is as easy as falling off a log, thanks to its simplistic touch control panel with familiar icons. We also appreciate the LCD screen that displays your room’s current RH levels and timer settings.

• This unit has a smart humidistat that allows you to select your desired moisture level between 35% and 85%, with a 5% increment. The intelligent dehumidification makes this unit a suitable pick for spaces like cellars, libraries, and grow rooms, where maintaining specific moisture levels is paramount.
• We love the industry-standard timer with which you can program the unit to operate for a specific number of hours between 0.5 and 24 hours. This feature allows you to increase or reduce the unit’s operation period by 30 minutes for up to 10 hours and by one hour for 11 to 24 hours.
• This dehumidifier features two fan speeds with which you can expedite or impede the moisture extraction rate depending on the amount of moisture you need to extract from your room.
• We love the continuous mode that allows the unit to extract moisture for 24 hours non-stop. This feature makes this dehumidifier an excellent choice for water damage restoration.
• This unit has a comfort mode that automatically maintains the humidity levels between 45% and 55% depending on your room’s ambient temperatures and the level of moisture in your space.
• We love the auto-restart feature that turns the unit on automatically following a power failure and restores the previous settings. This feature allows you to rest easy, knowing that efficient moisture extraction will continue without your supervision or input.

Mode of Drainage

For added convenience, the Vremi VRM010184N provides two modes of draining the condensate:

Manual Method

This unit comes with a 14.5-pint bucket that collects the condensate. When the tank reaches capacity, this unit will stop operating to prevent an overflow. It will also alert you through a loud beep and an alert light on the control panel.

Upon receiving the full-tank alerts, you need to remove the bucket and empty the condensate into a sink, toilet, or tub before reinstalling it back into the unit. We love the bucket’s handle that facilitates stress-free transportation. This unit also comes with a tank window that allows you to monitor the condensate level.

Continuous Mode

This moisture extractor also supports a more straightforward method of draining the condensate, which involves connecting a hose to the provided drain port. The continuous mode allows the condensate to flow out of the unit freely and eliminates the need to empty the bucket manually.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Keeping the Vremi Dehumidifier clean is a quick and straightforward process that shouldn’t cost you more than five minutes:

• Clean the bucket every two weeks with warm, soapy water
• Wash the filter with clean water every 30 days or when the alert light illuminates
• Dust the grilles with a vacuum cleaner
• Use a damp cloth to wipe the unit’s exterior

Key Take-Away

Thanks to the wide coverage area of 4500 sq. ft., the Vremi Dehumidifier is the perfect machine for extracting moisture from large homes and offices. We appreciate the intelligent humidistat that facilitates unsupervised moisture removal, making this unit incredibly easy to use.

This dehumidifier also supports continuous moisture extraction and drainage and thus an excellent choice for places that you don’t frequent.
