First, the positives: The Duracraft measures the humidity probably more reliable than some buyers specify here.
Although he is also with me up to 25% in addition to an electronic instrument, but my old analog hygrometer with the Duracraft agree that probably errs also the electronic device. All appliances vary in their values.
Well I also like the fact that the water level shows through the transparent back wall in the collection container. But that is in this case also urgently needed.
Now for the drawbacks:
The advantage of low power consumption does not come to fruition because the device much less liters of water promotes as the old equipment and therefore with me around the clock should remain in operation. It creates the bedroom just not through short missions.
The automatic shutdown when tank is full does not work reliably with my device. Although the float triggers the warning. Water is but further condensed. The device runs on. Also, my old units have water reservoir in canister form. Since hardly anything spills over. This unit here has an open-topped collection tray, which is also easily hakelig. Because often what is happening on the floor. Not good at all. One should therefore already empty the container when the shell contains only 1 liter. Here I share the concerns of some buyers completely. According to page 18 of the manual, the device should not be placed on wood but only on water-resistant non-metallic surfaces. The manufacturer assumes no liability for water damage from explicitly.
Addendum: The unit fell 11 MONTHS TOTAL OFF. It had to a service center at the Niederrhein THAT PURPOSE ARE. ALSO STATEMENT AND PACKAGING! REPAIR MADE WITHIN A WEEK AND WAS FREE SHIPPING. THE COST OF SERVICE HOTLINE COULD BY MAIL AVOIDED.
SECOND defective after 13 months, this time a different error message, device returns to the trip. Return after 2.5 weeks. Meanwhile, the board will survive any third travel more. But sensor and hygrometer are new now.
