Width: 15.16 inches
Depth: 13.38 inches
Bucket Capacity: 30 Pints
Warranty: 1 year

The LG GHD30 dehumidifier has a 30-pint capacity, which means it can remove up to 30 pints of water per day from the air.

The control panel on top of the front has a humidity control on a round knob and a two-speed fan switch. The humidity control which is also called humidistat has really works well. The automatic shut off feature turns the unit off automatically when the bucket is full, or when the bucket is removed or not replaced properly.

Unlike other dehumidifiers, the drip bucket can be easily removed from the front of the unit. The drip bucket has an integrated carrying handle to make it easy to hold. Similarly, the air filter is on the front of the LG GHD30, and it can be pulled out only when the drip bucket has been removed.

Compared to the other dehumidifiers in the market that have a hose fitting on the drip bucket, LG GHD30 has a different set-up. It comes with a long hard plastic hose fitting that presses into a hole about midway up on the back. It works fine for continuous operation, its just that it is unusual that the fitting would be so high up on the unit.

Finally, the GoldStar GHD30 blows air through itself in the opposite direction from other dehumidifiers. All other dehumidifiers blow air from back-to-front. The GHD30 blows air from front-to-back. This doesn’t affect the usage of the unit but it might be important for each owner’s operation.

Pros:

LG LHD45EL Dehumidifier Review

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 10:59:57 +0000

The LG LHD45EL 45 Pint Dehumidifier has excellent features, is energy efficient, and has a 5 year warranty.

LG LHD45EL Dehumidifier Specifications

45 Pint Capacity
Electronic Controls
2 Fan Speeds
Automatic Humidistat Control
Automatic Shut-Off System
Automatic Defrost Control
Low Temperature Operation
Removable 21 pint front bucket
External Drain Connector
Washable Air Filter
Easy-Roll Casters
Color: Silver
Approximate Dimensions:
- Width: 15-5/32″
- Height: 21-1/4″
Approximate Weight:
- Unit: 48 lbs
Manufacturer Warranty:
- 5 Years Carry-in Parts and Labor

The LG LHD45EL 45 Pint Dehumidifier has a 45 pint capacity with easy-to-use electronic controls. The water bucket is large and has a convenient handle that allows it to be easily removed, carried or emptied. The threaded drain hose connection allows for easy external drainage. The washable filter keeps dust away from the dehumidifier. The roller-caster wheels make the unit portable and convenient to move from room to room.

Advantages

The LG LHD45EL 45 Pint Dehumidifier is very sturdy. It sucks water out of the air very well. Shortly after running it for a bit, you can feel and smell the dryness in the air. The controls are easy to operate. When the bucket is full, the machine turns itself off automatically.

The 21 pint bucket is large so you’ll have to empty it less. It’s easy to pull the bucket out and slip back in. As soon as you push it back in, it senses the empty bucket and starts operating again. It is low maintenance. It has a removable, washable filter. The filter rinses off easily.

A great feature of this dehumidifier is the drainage hose option. Here is one review from a customer: “Very efficient and effective model. I like the feature of being able to drain to the outside.”

Disadvantages

The common complaint about the LG LHD45EL 45 Pint Dehumidifier is that it’s a little noisy. Here’s what a reviewer has to say: “I would give it a 5 except that it does make more noise than I’d like – basic compressor noise. I am not bothered by it being in my basement, but I wouldn’t want this in the same room with me if I were using it anywhere else in the house.

However, I think it’s clearly MEANT for damp basements so this should not deter most people from purchasing.”

Conclusion

The LG LHD45EL 45 Pint Dehumidifier is very sturdy, collects water very well, easy to operate, and the bucket is easy to empty. As this model is a bit noisy, it is perhaps not intended for living spaces. It might be best to use this in the basement.
