Level with the De'Longhi Tasciugo AriaDry Multi DEXD216RF

The De'Longhi Tasciugo AriaDry Multi DEXD216RF and the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L Quiet Dehumidifier with Max Extraction score the same, so either is a safe pick. The De'Longhi Tasciugo AriaDry Multi DEXD216RF goes first because it leaves owners a little happier. The Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L Quiet Dehumidifier with Max Extraction is the newer design. It takes our Best Budget badge.

About the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L

The OmniDry 12L Quiet is a compressor dehumidifier that Pro Breeze rates at up to 12 litres of extraction a day. That figure is a warm, humid room maximum, so expect less in a cool UK room. It uses R290 refrigerant, has 120 m³/h of airflow, and is rated for rooms up to about 20 square metres. The listed operating range is 5 to 35°C.

Controls are a digital LED display, an automatic humidity sensor, and a 24-hour timer. Auto, continuous and sleep modes are listed, and humidity can be set between 30% and 80%. The filter is a washable mesh, not HEPA. The cable is 1.5m long.

The tank holds 2L, so without the hose it fills quickly. A drain hose of about 110cm is included for continuous drainage into a sink or outside. The unit weighs about 10.2kg and measures roughly 25.5 x 22 x 44.7cm. It draws about 200W, or around 0.18kWh per hour. This listing is the plain model. A Wi-Fi version is sold separately.

What owners report about the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L

There is very little owner feedback for this exact model, and what we found is brief. Owners who have posted are positive. They say it pulls a lot of water out of the air and that the automatic setting copes when moisture builds up again.

One owner used it to clear condensation and a damp smell in a child's bedroom, and said the room smelled fresh within about two days. We found no owner comments on noise, the hose, build quality or how it lasts after months of use, so none are reported here.

Who the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L suits

It suits a bedroom, a flat or a small single room where you want a low-energy machine that is rated quiet. Plan to use the hose if you will run it overnight or dry laundry, because the 2L tank fills fast.

Look elsewhere for a large open-plan space, a cold garage or a room that needs more than 20 square metres of cover. The Pro Breeze 20L Premium Dehumidifier with Laundry Mode has more capacity. The Meaco DD8L Pro Desiccant Dehumidifier suits cold rooms better than a compressor model. If you want an H13 HEPA filter and Wi-Fi in a 12L machine, the MeacoDry Arete Two 12L is the one to look at.

Questions about the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L

How does a Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L dehumidifier work?

It is a compressor model that draws in room air, removes the moisture and collects it in the 2L tank. The included drain hose can carry the water away continuously instead.

Which is better, Meaco or Pro Breeze?

It depends on the model. The OmniDry 12L has a washable mesh filter rather than HEPA and a 1-year guarantee. The MeacoDry Arete Two 12L in this guide adds an H13 HEPA filter and Wi-Fi control.

How big is the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L?

About 25.5 x 22 x 44.7cm, and it weighs about 10.2kg. A 1.5m cable is fitted.

How long is the guarantee on the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L?

1 year, according to the B&Q listing and a third-party review site. A paid 3-year Protection Plan is mentioned as an option.

What temperature does the Pro Breeze OmniDry 12L work in?

5 to 35°C. The 12 litre figure is a warm, humid room maximum, so expect less in a cool room.

How we score it

Every score here comes from our ranking model; no editor sets the order. Most of each score is what the review sites say: the scores their own reviews give each model, and whether their best-of lists name it. For this guide we read Expert Reviews, Ideal Home, T3 and Woman & Home. The rest is how happy owners are, held back where few owners have rated a product, and how new it is. Value for money earns its own badge rather than a higher place. We compared 22 models for this guide before settling on these ten.

Brands can't pay to be included or to move up. We last checked these picks in November 2026.
