Frigidaire - High Humidity 50 Pint Capacity Dehumidifier Review

RJG61 5/26/2023

Our new Frigidaire High Humidity 50 Pint Dehumidifier works like a charm! It is much quieter than our previous dehumidifier and keeps our large basements humidity within our hygrometers acceptable range. The ability to set the required humidity on the dehumidifier allows the unit to maintain the set humidity without it having to run continuously. We are satisfied with its performance and would purchase it again.

Does pull water out of the air, but is very noisy and power hungry

UvuxyubugvNiv 5/26/2023

Despite being energy star rated, this unit has increased my electric bill about $50 per month when set to 45% while the house typically would be around 56% naturally. That seems excessive. It™€™s also much louder than expected.

Cindy3476588 5/24/2023

I™€™ve been using the humidifier only for a couple weeks, but so far it™€™s working great. Keeps humidity down in my basement to an acceptable level. Easy to set up; works well attached to a hose for direct drainage.

2 defective units

Jose123 5/24/2023

First one had EC code never worked. Replaced new one under warranty, first 6 months. This one leaks water onto floor but is very intermittent. Does not do it every cycle, mind you this unit is brand new. It will leak if you use built in bucket or drain it out the hose. Nothing is broken or plugged up! Did notice coils frozen over one time. Frigidaire will not back up their products. Have had this replacement for 6 mo. Frigidaire will not honor warranty 1 yr has gone by since initial purchase, but have never had a proper working unit.

It stopped working after a few months

BangtanArmy613 5/24/2023

It lasted for a few months before it started to shut off on it's own. The warranty is only for a year, and that's if you kept your receipt. I regret purchasing this and wish I would've listened to the negative reviews.

I bought this one to replace another Frigidaire that lasted 6 years which I find to be above average as far as humidifier longevity goes. I'm at the start of dehumidification season so I can't rate the performance yet, but I'm counting on this one to be as good as the previous model.

50 pint dehumidifier

DD93 5/21/2023

This is the third 50 pint Frigidaire dehumidifier I've had, they work great until they break which for me has averaged three and a half years. I use them about 8 months a year in my finished basement (900 sq ft) and they keep the humidity at 45% or below emptying the bucket about every other day. If they could only make a dehumidifier that works this well but lasts longer than 4 years or that could be repaired (good luck with that!) I would buy another. Five stars for functioning, two stars for longevity!

I will be returning! Bought at bjs. Worst I have ever owned. Leaks alot of water into housing when you remove bucket. Water level indicator allows WAY too much water into bucket until registers as full. Which means that emptying the bucket is always messy. I have to keep several towels nearby. And runs hot!!

poor durability

RobertS13 5/20/2023

I bought it 1.5 years ago. It failed catastrophically and is unrepairable with error code ™€˜ec™€™ . Many other users complain of this failure pattern. Customer service at Frigidaire is a users nightmare. Imho many electronics sold in USA are now made cheaply and may function well initially but fail much sooner than the older machines they replace. My prior dehumidifier lasted over a decade, the one before that lasted close to two decades. I will join the race to the bottom and will now buy the cheapest dehumidifier sold because none can be trusted and that™€™s the only sane way of dealing with the throw-away culture in which we live.

Keeps our basement dry

Fabarm 5/19/2023

This is our second Fridgeaire dehumidifier replacing a 15 yr old unit. It keeps our northern basement dry including when any washed clothes are hung to dry instead of in the dryer. Styling is nice and contemporary. Collection bin is easy to empty and place back in the unit. The red fill indicator is a nice addition our previous model did not have. Hope this one lasts as long as the prior.

Died after one year!!!

WWD123 5/18/2023

11 days past 1 year warranty and I get the EC code of death! Initially told by customer service they would replace.....then next day told that agent was wrong and Frigidaire would do absolutely nothing!! If you want a dehumidifier that will last just a bit more than the 1 year warranty coupled with uncaring customer service then this unit is for you....otherwise I would try another brand!!!

Outstanding dehumidifier, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Ron264 5/18/2023

I purchased the Frigidaire High Humidity 50 Pint Capacity Dehumidifier for my home's crawl space. I paired the humidifier with a large, high efficiency fan to circulate the air under the house. I run both 12 hours per day, 6 hours in the morning and 6 hours at night. This installation keeps the humidity under the house between 55 and 65 percent. PERFECT.

Apparently we are not the only ones who were taken by the good reviews we saw when we bought this dehumidifier in 2021, because now when we put in the error code EC for this Frigidaire dehumidifier there are many people who have had this happen to them. This has been happening for many years with this dehumidifier FFAD5033W1 model. We had an off brand dehumidifier that worked for 20 years and now we bought this Frigidaire dehumidifier that we thought was from a very reputable company and this one we bought in 2021, used for that summer and stored thru winter and brought out and used the summer of 2022 and then stored again through winter and brought back out this May and started and it went to this error code EC right away and would not draw any moisture at all. We always clean the filters and we troubleshoot the other things the manual said and it still goes to EC error. If the Frigidaire company has known this model does this for so many years, why are they still selling this to unsuspecting consumers without remedying the problem? We spent too much on this dehumidifier for only 2 summers!!

Overpriced and unreliable

blub 5/18/2023

This has a one year warranty and it fails in about 13 months. Read the reviews on Amazon, including mine. EC code error and unfixable. I ran it for about 5 months over the summer in my basement. Plugged in the following year to this error code and the dehumidifier won't run. No help from Frigidaire.Do not buy this dehumidifier! Buy a cheaper one - even if it fails as quickly as this one, at least it's cheaper! There are also reviews of people trying to get warranty service from Frigidaire and getting run around for months. So when you buy the cheaper one, don't but a Frigidaire.

Junk

GOLDENMOM09 5/18/2023

This dehumidifier worked great for the first 2 years. It then stopped working on us for no apparent reason. After googling this is a very common occurrence. I was promised a new unit on May 1st. On May 17th I contacted the company because we had still not recieved our unit. They are now saying it is out of warranty, and we are not covered. I will never purchase this brand again. Absolutely awful customer service, and a product that costs $250+ should work more than 2 years without issues.

FFAD5033W1 Dehumidifier Fail

jlo2023 5/17/2023

Model FFAD5033W1 purchased (after lots of research) in spring of 2021 from Amazon and used for 6 months or 2 summers. Spring of 2023 EC code popped up and it no longer functions. 1 year warranty so what are the chances that it would stop functioning after 3 months of summer use. $250 for 6 months of actual use. Since that EC code means a problem with the sealed system Frigidaire said the cost to repair likely would be more than the cost of unit.I see others with the same issues reported. The customer service did not even have a local authorized repair number in our state, I would have to go through a national number.Hesitant to buy a refrigerator from Frigidaire now.

This machine is much quieter than my previous dehydrator and much more efficient at extracting moisture. It™€™s has been unusually wet in our area recently and this, larger capacity machine is a true workhorse, keeping humidity at the optimal level.I do have some difficulty getting the filter cover snapped back into place properly and fear breaking the small plastic tabs.
