Third-party reviews

What we like about Pro Breeze PB-12

  • Large water tank capacity allows for multi-day continuous use without constant refilling.
  • Extremely quiet operation making it ideal for bedrooms and use during the night.
  • Powerful mist output that effectively humidifies large spaces.
  • Convenient built-in timer function and adjustable mist modes.
  • Includes a dedicated aroma diffuser tray for essential oils.

What we don't like about Pro Breeze PB-12

  • The tank is heavy to lift and the bottom-fill process is awkward and inconvenient.
  • Difficult to clean thoroughly, leading to potential odor buildup inside the tank over time.
  • The warm mist setting does not get noticeably warm enough for some users.
  • Mist volume adjustments only have basic pre-set modes instead of fine granular controls.

Verdict

The Pro Breeze 12L Compressor Dehumidifier (frequently referred to as the 12L model) is a highly efficient appliance designed for spaces up to 20m², featuring a 12-litre daily extraction rate, a 1.8L to 2L water tank capacity, an adjustable humidistat (30%-80%), and low energy consumption operating at approximately 200W (costing about 5p/hour). Main advantages include its ultra-quiet operation at 38–40 dBA, an automatic shut-off safety sensor, three versatile operating modes (Auto, Continuous, Sleep), and a 24-hour timer. However, notable drawbacks include its heavier weight of around 9.5kg, a relatively small water tank that requires frequent manual emptying if the continuous drainage hose is not utilized, and a drop in performance when operated in environments below 15°C.
