Gurin Renewable Wireless Mini Dehumidifier - My Personal Recommendation

This high capacity renewable dehumidifier has been designed to adsorb moisture from small, enclosed areas. It will help protect clothes and valuables from the damaging effects of mold/mildew and moisture rot. It is 100% renewable and needs no power to operate. Just hang the Gurin unit in a closet, or you can place it in other small, enclosed spaces, and it will start to adsorb moisture. There are no batteries required or cords to plug in, the unit works without power. There is an indicator window with special "moisture meter crystals" that change from blue (when dry) to pink (when wet) to indicate when the unit needs to be "renewed". The unit will adsorb approximately 8-10 ounces of moisture (depending on humidity levels this should take between 6 - 8 weeks). Once the moisture has been adsorbed it cannot leak or spill. This unit uses a specialized, engineered, crystallized silica gel that is odorless, non-toxic and completely safe. When the indicator crystals turn pink it is time to "re-new" the unit. Simply remove the unit from where it is adsorbing moisture and plug it into a power outlet or power strip in a well ventilated area (bathroom with extraction fan, garage, outside, etc.). There is a built-in heater that will warm the crystals allowing them to expand and release the moisture as water vapor into the outside air. It takes about 12-14 hours to completely re-new the unit. When it is completely renewed the indicator crystals will change back to blue. The unit is brand new again and ready to adsorb another 8-10 ounces of moisture. The crystals will remain active for 10 years and we offer a 5 year limited manufactures warranty on all of our DHMD-110 units.

Reviews of Gurin Renewable Wireless Mini Dehumidifier

Brilliant
Rating by : Hannah Barnes,

I live in a dorm that has a small private bathroom. It has always been humid and recently developed a horrible musty smell. When I ordered this item I was pleasently suprised by how small it is- about half the size of a tissue box and comes with a hook so we just hang it from a towel rack. It took a few days to really start working but the smell has almost compleatly gone away and even when we shower the air stays pretty dry. The only problem is it says that when you recharge it it releases the moisture back into the air and to do it in a garage or outside which I don't really have access to but it makes up for it that its been working for almost a month and hasn't needed to be changed. Definitly reccomend if you have a particularly humid small room.

Silica absorbs moisture in enclosed spaces
Rating by : Ali Julia,

This dehumidifier is 6" by 4.5" by 1.5". Crystallized silica gel inside of the case absorbs moisture in the air (documentation says it can absorb 8-10 ounces of moisture). The window on the front of the unit show moisture indicator crystals that change color from dark blue (when dry) to pink (when wet). When the crystals indicate that the content is wet the unit needs to be plugged in for 12-14 hours to dry out the gel.

The unit is designed to work in small enclosed areas. I keep some paperwork in the basement and want to prevent it from smelling musty. I put the Gurin dehumidifier into the enclosed box with my paperwork and left it there for 1 month. I took pictures of the indicator after this 1 month test and after I dried them out again. You can find these picture by following 'customer photos' link under the main photo.

The first photo shows the unit from the side. It comes with a hanger which is handy to finding a good way to place the unit. I used it to hang the unit inside of the box from one of the sides.

The second photo shows the power outlet which is used when you need to dry out the silica gel. After 1 month test I kept the unit plugged in for close to 20 hours as crystals continued to get darker after 14 hours recommended in the manual.

Photo #3 shows the "dry" crystals after they were dried out. Photo #4 shows the "wet" crystals after 1 month in the basement. Under the bright lights I was able to tell a subtle difference between purple and dark blue. The top of the unit contains a color chart that shows blue for dry, purple for medium, and pink for wet. After one month the color was somewhere between the blue shade and the purple shade shown on the chart.

Having a small unit preserving valuable papers is very useful. I believe the unit did absorb the moisture in the box. The indicator is a bit hard to read, but at least this test told me that I don't need to recharge (i.e. dry out) the silica every month.

I received this dehumidifier from the manufacture for an honest and unbiased review. Note that the manufacture provides a 5 year limited warranty for this product.

Update 6/13/2013
I posting an updated picture taken 2 months later after a fairly wet spring. The crystals are now clearly pink and "wet". This photo is labelled #5 in the collage.

Great Little Absorber!
Rating by : J. Mingle "gram to three",

With the money I've spent in the past three or four years buying the little humidifier jars I could have bought two of these. I happened across this item on Amazon and bought it to use in a very damp closet...it had been collecting moisture for quite a long time and smelled really musty. The little jars did absorb the moisture, but not completely before having to be replaced, and never got rid of the musty smell. In about four days after hanging this in the closet all the moisture was gone, along with the musty smell. The crystals were pink, I recharged it and all was good! It did such a good job absorbing the original moisture that it hasn't gotten fully pink again...just slightly, but I can tell the moisture hasn't returned. Great little product!
