I think I need one.
The windows in my house are crap - they're double glazed but old, the seals have gone, and they are running with water daily. Add in showering, cooking, drying clothes, four people and a dog breathing overnight and trying to keep the heating bills down and the house is getting more and more damp and mouldy.
Does anyone have one? Does it make a decent difference?
Any recommendations for type, size, usage etc would be much appreciated!
I'm also thinking of getting a window vac to do all the windows on a morning, as wiping them with a cloth isn't cutting it.

Definitely get one! Ours is 7 years old and not maintained very well but it makes a huge difference in terms of drying laundry. Yesterday I put it on in DC1's bedroom for about 5-6 hours (appr. 6sqm). There was about a litre in there at the end, which definitely wasn't just condensation!
PSA: dehumidifiers have a filter, which needs cleaning regularly! Learn from my mistake folks 😂
