Keeping on top of moisture is an annual problem for many UK households. Damp patches on exterior walls, bathrooms that are tough to ventilate, clothes that won't dry quickly enough to avoid smelling musty - all very familiar problems on our cold and wet North Atlantic island.

One of the best ways to beat the moisture is with a dehumidifier, although it's rarely a cheap fix. However, thanks to a fantastic cashback offer available through TopCashback and Currys, you can currently pick up a . Even without the TopCashback offer, it's still marked down to £34.99 from £47.99.

As is typical of Black+Decker, this is a high-quality piece of kit. Its water tank holds up to 900ml and can draw 250ml from the air every 24 hours. You can leave it running with peace of mind thanks to its auto-off feature that ensures the tank never overflows.

It runs quietly too, sucking down all that unwanted moisture without complaint. As a final point of order: it comes with a one-year manufacturer guarantee.

Currys customers are big fans, with a 4.4/5 average rating from 46 reviews. "Product is a good size, can be moved around the house, easy to empty. Due to the size it, doesn't take up lots of space.

"Nice and small, ideal for putting on in the bedroom while in an en suite shower. You can also put it in a wardrobe to keep damp out. Very good," said another. This five-star review vouches for its laundry-drying assistance, too: "Excellent little dehumidifier. Combined with a heated area, it's a cheap and efficient way to dry washing. The dehumidifier is very efficient for its size, removing moisture from a small room."


Some users have flagged that its small size does limit its water yield when compared with larger units: "Compared to other dehumidifiers, it does not collect a lot of water. It's a bit noisy for something this small."

Another customer noted: "Not very adjustable - simply turns on and off. Would be wonderful if it could sense the humidity in the room and decide if it needs to be on."

Most alternative options come at much higher price points, albeit with higher capacities, LED displays, and automatic operation. This covers all those bases, while this . In terms of value for money, however, the is an absolute steal at £19.70 using Topcashback.

Your cashback will be tracked in your TopCashback account and will appear there within seven working days of your purchase.
