I've had an ebac 2650e for about five years and it works well enough,

looking to buy a second dehumidifier for upstairs.

Most of the reviews seem to be focussed on features and appearance, so
I thought I'd ask the group for their opinions on a decent
dehumidifier that works well and is likely to last a few years like my
ebac.

Not sure if I want another refrigeration unit or a dessicant, so
recommendations for either are welcome.

We use one of these on the boat over winter, SWMBO was so taken with it she got one for the house.
