Waykar's PD160B-PRO-B is the quiet budget pick for bedrooms and small basements. Waykar names it the 34 Pints Super Quiet Dehumidifier at 33 dB, rates it at 34 pints per day at 95°F and 90% relative humidity, and lists 2,000 sq ft of coverage with the ability to dry a room to 30% RH. It carries an ENERGY STAR Most Efficient 2025 label and 190 W rated power. The unit has a 3.3 ft gravity drain hose, a 0.6 gallon tank with a full-tank alarm, auto defrost, a 24-hour timer and power-off memory, and weighs 24.25 lbs. It was $156.99 on Waykar's US store when we checked, and Waykar adds a second warranty year on registration. Keep expectations in proportion: its capacity is measured at the hot, humid maximum condition, so it is not a substitute for a 50-pint unit in a wet basement, and there is no app. We compared documented features and published prices.
