Verdict

The Ebac 15 is a compressor dehumidifier designed for the UK climate, featuring a 15-litre daily extraction capacity, a 3.5-litre fully enclosed water container, a 190W maximum power consumption, and two selectable fan speeds. Ideal for homes with up to 3 bedrooms or a volume of 330m³, it effectively tackles damp and mold using hydrophilic coated coils, a manual infinity humidistat dial, an automatic shut-off function, and removable carbon/antibacterial filters. Its main pros include an efficient laundry drying mode, a large spill-proof water tank, an integrated handle with a 2.1m power cable tidy, and an affordable entry-level price point. However, notable cons include its lack of Ebac's automated Smart Control, manual humidistat dials that can be tricky to set accurately, a heavy 13kg weight, and the fact that optional casters must be purchased separately.
