Do you find the environment in your home or office a little too humid?
Humidity is a great thing for dust mites, mold or mildew as they thrive in a humid environment. Above 50% humidity is classed as damp, and that’s what those unwanted visitors need to multiply.
However, none of these things are good for your health. In fact they can be quite debilitating, especially if you have allergies.
Did you know that mould can trigger the same symptoms as pollen outdoors?
If you’ve decided that you need a humidifier but have found them all to be rather bulky, or too large for your space, then I have the solution for you.

Eva-Dry E-333 Renewable Mini Dehumidifier

Instead, it works using a renewable silica gel technology that will keep a space of up to 333 cubic feet humidity-free for up to ten years!
This makes it a great device for those small spaces that can easily be forgotten – closets, boats and RVs to name a few.
It won’t leak or spill fluid, making it nice and safe for use around children and pets.
Measuring at just 5”H x 5”W x 3”L, it truly is the best small dehumidifier.

Frigidaire Dehumidifier
If you truly wish to protect your home from mold and mildew caused by excess moisture, then Frigidaire is a trusted brand that will do just that.
You can choose from three sizes, all at the upper end of the price scale, that will eliminate bacteria in the air that can make breathing difficult.
Easy-to-use buttons will help you select the desired setting, and there’s a timer and an on/off switch.
Whilst the unit itself is quite expensive, you won’t have to fork out extra money to replace filters.
The existing filter can be removed, cleaned and replaced for an ongoing clean environment.
Wheels make it easy to move around and the front loading bucket makes emptying the water very easy.
If you have a large budget, this dehumidifier from Frigidaire is one of the best portable dehumidifiers that money can buy.
VonHaus Compact Mini Portable Dehumidifier
Colored in a less traditional black, Vonhaus have created a small dehumidifier that will look good and work well in any tiny space.
It does require a power outlet, but with most small rooms, walk-in closets and bathrooms having power outlets, this shouldn’t pose a problem.
The water level gauge can be easily seen so you know when to empty the water tray.
If you happen to forget or be away, there’s an auto shut-off function that will activate when the tank has reached capacity so you needn’t worry.
The lightweight design of the Vonhaus Compact Dehumidifier makes it great if you have several affected rooms or areas of your house.
Simply unplug it, take it to where it’s needed, plug it in again and away you go!
Pro-Breeze PB-02-US Electric Mini Dehumidifier
If you require your dehumidifier to be ultra quiet, perhaps it is in a nursery or study, then this Pro-Breeze is for you.
The Ultra-Quiet Peltier Whisper Technology eliminates the need for a compressor and makes it the best quiet dehumidifier.
The water catchment tray can easily be removed and there is an auto shut-off function just in case you forget.
However, you should remember courtesy of the visibility through the water tank as well as the indicator light.
It’s perfect for small spaces, and at a very reasonable price, you can afford to buy a few if you require a dehumidifier in several areas of your house.
Pure Enrichment Dehumidifier
Another great dehumidifier for all those small spaces you often forget – the boat, caravan, closet, etc.
Slightly more expensive than other, similar, products on the market, the Pure Enrichment Dehumidifier offers an easy-to-empty water container.
It’s also easy to see when it’s full, and a light will also indicate this.
It’s a very aesthetically pleasing design so you don’t have to hide it away. It can almost be a feature on its own!
The quiet operation makes it perfect for when you need quiet such as a child’s room or study.
In Conclusion
Dehumidifiers provide a great way to clean the air and rid your space of mold and mildew. When space is limited a small dehumidifier is crucial.
This list of the best portable dehumidifiers will help you clean the air – quite literally.
