OK, shameful confession alert - so we dry all our washing on the radiators and let's just say that we have a damp problem! We'll probably have to grit our teeth and look into the tumble dryer thing (and wouldn't it be lovely to free up my time from always moving it around on the heaters) but we'll probably need a dehumidifier anyway.
I kind of had an idea that they weren't much good because the only one I had before was a clapped-out second-hand cheapie one in the 90s.... it was horribly noisy, seemed to not work very well, and at the same time seemed not store much so I was always having to empty the container at a rate that seemed unreasonably frequent.
But I've heard that there can be good dehumidifier experiences, too! So as not to repeat past mistakes, can anyone advise which brands/models are better, whether it's worth spending the money on an more expensive one, whether it's better to buy new or secondhand, which features are actually important, and anything else you think needs to be added?
Thanks for letting me pick your brains and hope you can advise!
