30-pint ENERGY STAR dehumidifier for rooms up to 1,500 sq ft with dual fan speeds and auto-restart.

ABest Mid-Size Room Dehumidifier

The Midea MAD30C1AWS is the right-sized solution for bedrooms, offices, and medium rooms where a 50-pint unit would run at 30% capacity, make more noise than needed, and cost more to buy and operate. At 30 pints/day (AHAM 2019 conditions), it's correctly matched to rooms up to 1,500 sq ft in the AHAM rating โ€” though the realistic range for a 30-pint unit to maintain meaningful dehumidification is more like 800โ€“1,000 sq ft at 65ยฐF. Dual fan speeds let you choose between efficient quiet operation and faster moisture recovery. ENERGY STAR certified. The continuous drain hose connection is gravity-only, same as Frigidaire. No integrated pump. A compact and quiet dehumidifier that doesn't overpower the room it's in.

Pros

  • 30-pint capacity correctly sized for bedrooms and medium rooms โ€” no overkill noise or cost
  • Dual fan speeds: quiet mode for overnight, normal mode for faster recovery
  • ENERGY STAR certified โ€” efficient electricity consumption for the capacity
  • Compact footprint for a mid-size unit

Cons

  • Gravity drain only โ€” no built-in pump
  • Not sufficient for whole-house or large basement dehumidification
