Our take on the Waykar 34 pt. 2,000 sq. ft. Energy Star Most Efficient Dehumidifier with Drain Hose and Bucket

The Waykar 34 pt. dehumidifier is a compressor-based portable unit rated to pull 34 pints of moisture a day at 95°F and 90% RH, with a 4.8-pint bucket and a drain hose for continuous operation. It stands out for low noise (under 33 dB on low auto comfort mode), 360° wheels, auto-defrost and an Energy Star Most Efficient rating that Waykar says cuts power use about 45%. It runs on 230 watts at 120 V and weighs 22 lb, so it moves between rooms without much effort. The latest best price is $159 at Distritech as of November 3, which sits at the low end of its recent range.

Pros
  • Quiet on low: rated under 33 dB in auto comfort mode
  • Energy Star Most Efficient; about 45% lower power draw claimed
  • Continuous draining with the included hose
  • 360° wheels and 22 lb make it easy to reposition
  • Auto-defrost keeps it running in cool spaces down to 41°F
  • Adjustable humidistat and auto comfort mode
Cons
  • 34-pint rating is measured at 95°F/90% RH; real-world output drops in cooler, drier air
  • No built-in pump, so draining uphill or to a distant floor drain is not possible
  • 4.8-pint bucket fills fast in very damp spaces
  • Compressor design is less effective below 41°F
  • Bulky at 19.3 in tall despite the slim 8.2 in depth

Questions and answers

Is the Waykar 34 pt. dehumidifier worth it?
At $159 at Distritech as of November 3, it is a low-cost way to dry a basement or large room quietly. It suits steady damp control better than cold-room use, since it is a compressor unit rated down to 41°F.
How does it compare with a 50-pint dehumidifier?
A 50-pint unit removes more water per day and usually handles larger or wetter spaces faster. This 34-pint model is lighter, cheaper and quieter, which fits bedrooms and moderately damp basements.
How loud is it?
Waykar rates it under 33 dB on low-speed auto comfort mode, which is close to a quiet conversation. Expect more noise on high fan settings.
Does it come with a drain hose?
Yes, a drain hose is included for continuous gravity draining. There is no built-in pump, so the hose must run downhill to a floor drain or outside.
What size space will it cover?
Waykar lists up to 2,500 sq. ft., but that assumes warm, very humid air. In a typical cool basement, plan on a smaller area or expect slower drying.
When is it cheapest?
The current $159 at Distritech as of November 3 is already near the low end of its recent range. Dehumidifiers usually dip during spring promotions and rise in peak summer humidity.
What do buyers say about the Waykar 34 pt. 2,000 sq. ft. Energy Star Most Efficient Dehumidifier with Drain Hose and Bucket?
Rated 4.6 out of 5 from 469 ratings.
