Eva-dry E-500 Renewable Wireless Mini Dehumidifer Reviews

I was surprisingly pleased with the Eva Dry mini dehumidifier. I hang mine just out outside our guinea pig's cage and it absorbs excess moisture quite effectively, keeping their food and cage area from getting too humid. It takes several weeks to fully absorb moisture but the indicator will go from blue to bright pink, and the unit will be noticeably heavier. Just plug the unit into the socket overnight to refresh.

I have 5 of these Eva-Dry rechargable dessicating dehumidifiers. Here in humid NC, using the larger in 4x8 closet works well. Takes some time, but definite measurable difference of 10-15% or so on humidity gauge after a couple of days. Need to recharge once a week here where even with the air conditioning on, indoor rel humidity is over 50% most days.

The larger EDV-500 has a much better hook which fits through the holes in the Eva-Dry EDV-500 plug, a feature that is not very well documented!

Also, there are occasional specials: recently a 2 for 1 sale on the EDV-500 with free shipping.

Only reason for not giving this product a 5 star is that as stated in other posts, the recharge process gets the unit very hot and it doesn't always sit well in an outlet without support. I too had one unit fall, and was fortunate the case stayed intact but the little beads could make for a real mess if the unit broke open!

But the real mess this thing avoids is dealing with drying chemicals that collect water and the dissolved dessicant. When that tips over, it is a wet mess, so the EDV-500 and EDV-300 avoid that type of mess.

PS where in the world did someone get the idea to label this "wireless" in the Amazon description? Very misleading!

I prefer this product over refilling messy damp aid units anyday (yuck!).

It seems to keep the closet fairly dry. Two problems. Problem 1. When I renew one of the units, it falls out of the outlet unless I support it with something else. This could be dangerous since it heats up. I'm able to renew it on a counter outlet but could be a more problematic for a regular outlet that has more space between outlet and floor. Problem 2. My boyfriend who I forgot to tell about the unit, went into my closet like a bull in a china shop and it fell off its hook and broke (glass beads everywhere) I had to buy a new one after only a month. There should be a more secure way to affix the unit to hang in the closet or perhaps customer should opt to put it on the floor. The hook is fairly flimsy and if you have kids or clutzy significant others, hanging just isn't a good option for a closet that is full and tight.

Honest reviews on Eva-dry E-500 Renewable Wireless Mini Dehumidifer

I got the 500 for my 1.6 cubic ft. AMSEC safe for my handguns and important documents and use a wireless temperature/humidifier sensor to measure the moisture. It works well and keeps moisture at bay.

Con: After a month and 2 renews, the unit stopped renewing. The unit would not heat up to release the moisture from the unit. Did a little troubleshooting and found that the collapsible power plug wouldn't make contact when plugged into the wall. This is the contact between the plug and the unit itself and not the wall. The weight of the unit when plugged into the wall would tend to pull itself away and cause it not to make contact with the unit. I verified this with a Fluke multimeter while pulling on the plug it would lose connection. The only work around is to charge it upright on a power strip where the weight would help give it a better connect.

The unit gets very HOT! I assume this is normal considering it needs alot of heat to release the moisture from the unit. I'm just afraid it might catch on fire one day during a renew. To be on the safe side, I renew in the middle of my tile floor.

I purchased this about a month ago for a beer keg refrigerator that kept collecting standing water on the bottom. I would use towels to soak up the half inch of water from the bottom of the fridge, but when I would open the fridge to check it again a week later, the water would always be back. Since I put this de-humidifier into the fridge a month ago, the fridge is still completely dry, and the beads have yet to change color at all, so I haven't yet had to "recharge" the dehumidifier. It's done just what I needed it to do. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

---UPDATE---

To my surprise, it was over 7 months before any moisture appeared in the bottom of the fridge again. I plugged in the Eva-Dry for about a day and a half (until I could see pink beads again), and put it right back in the fridge, which has been dry ever since (1 month and counting).

My daughter has asthma and I discovered this log at a conference. When it burns it smells terrific and she doesn't have one cough. In fact, none of us had sore eyes or smelled back after a backyard bonfire. It's the best log I have EVER used and now Katie can participate in bonfires!

I made this movie in 2012 when I worked for one of my video clients because I wanted the story to get out. The very gracious Earthlog owner sent us some free logs (very kind) because they weren't available yet in Northern California. But now they are here on Amazon and anyone with any smoke problems needs to give them a try. In your fireplace, inside or out, they are a delight.

I am buying another case. (I promise, they will make your garage smell good while they wait to be used!)

This has been an awesome heater. It actually works so good I have bought three for our boat, camper, and toy hauler.

They are great at circulating the air even when it's not putting out heat so it keeps the area warmer.

The one for the camper we used in Alaska and kept really warm.

The item showed up used and broke out of the box, I needed it to keep my boat engine warm during the freeze so I fixed it and used it, I asked the company to send me a new one and I would send this back once I get the new one, I even offered to pay for a new one so no risk for the company.

This hose is extremely useful when coupled to the matching 8" blower. I use it to exhaust smoke, fumes, etc. from my garage when I'm wood or metal-working. The flexibility means that I can put the blower anywhere and direct the suction to where I'm working. There are four rings sewn in to the outside that can be used to suspend the hose (or hold it to a wall or floor).

On Halloween, you can fill the duct with white lights and make a 20' long glowing orange worm or path marker.

This is a very basic non-programmable thermostat that install easily on the Cadet baseboard heater (and not the wall). The double pole version actually will let you shut off the heater the single pole does not provide that capability. The setting is on a trial-error basis as there is no temp markings. I could not find a heater mountable programmable unit. The included installation instructions are not as good as the ones that come with the baseboard heater itself!

This heater works very well. I don't need a "fan only" setting in the winter (see previous review). Anyway, I bought it for an uninsulated attic bedroom about 16x12. Keeps the room warm, runs quietly, and doesn't have a noticeable effect on the electric bill. The remote control adds to the convenience. If you buy something else, be sure it has remote.

The description "includes a programmable thermostat with a 7-hour timer, allowing you to pre-set room temperatures for different times of day" is not true. This product is no different than other heaters that have a simple thermostat and a simple timer. You cannot "program" temperatures for different times of day. It doesn't even have a clock! No different than a Lasko which is much cheaper. I bought it to turn on daily at 5AM returned disappointed!

UPDATE:

Oct 10 2011 to Feb 15 2012 RIP.

Was used very heavily but I still think that it should have held up longer, at least a full heating season. Was not worth exercising the warranty.

Overall a decent compact heater.

The good:

Puts out quite a bit of heat.

Timer from 1 to 7 hours in hour increments.

The oscillate feature lets you distribute heat to more than one room.

Quiet.

Thermostat handy and works as expected.

Remote a nice convenience.

The bad:

A power failure leaves ti turned off, not suitable for untended operation.

Setting the heater to low sets the thermostat to max.

Power on gets you the High Max settings not where you left it.

Timer only turns the heater off; it could just as easily toggle it; that is if its set when the heater is off it turns it on, if the heater is on when it is set it turns it off.

The ugly:

The remote icons aren't terribly obvious.

It counts in binary octal. e.g. the timer goes 1,2,4 so you get all the numbers with 8 button pushes, but if you mess up you have to start over.

An OK heater for the money, the thermostat actually works unlike some of the other small ceramic heaters out there. If it didn't have the power fail and early death problems I would have given it 4 1/2 stars.

the temperature gage on this product cant be used unless you put it in maximum 1500. if you want to put it in 900 mode you cant regulate the temperature. also when you turn it off and turn if back on instead of being in low it is in high. so if the electricity goes out in the middle of the night i would have to reset it to low. i think it should be able to maneuver more easily and it doesnt. i was very disappointed.

Seems like a great product and value. However, they made the shelves too close together. It does hold the smallest bottles of wine, but many "Standard" bottles (Dancing Bull, Rancho Zabbaco, etc) don't fit unless they are jammed in and then you can't get them back out without unloading the whole thing. Don't waste your time and get a model that is more versatile. As if insult to injury, the thermostat didn't work either but that was probably a fluke.

I bought this wine cooler after reading some good reviews. It was a complete waste of time and money, the wine cooler worked for about 4 hours and then this uncontrolled beeping noise would continueoulsy play. I unplugged the unit and tried resetting it but the noise was still there when I plugged it back in. I called the company and all they said was it might be the control board. How does a wine cooler die after 4 hours.

My boyfriend bought this wine refrigerator for me as a birthday gift on a total whim. It was a fantastic, unexpected present and has so far worked perfectly for me. I've never owned a wine cooler previous to this one, but I do live in a smaller apartment, so it's compact size is exactly what I needed. As another review stated, the shelves are kind of close together preventing the BIGGER wine bottles from fitting side-by-side, however all standard wine bottles will fit. I tend to buy the larger bottles of Barefoot Moscato, in which case I simply remove one shelf for the time being. Personally, I'm not at the point where I've collected dozens of wines and will RARELY have more than 12 bottles at one time to fill this fridge anyway. All in all, it's a fantastic product that chills wines perfectly and fits just about anywhere. :)

I had this wine cooler for about 6 months before the temperature control stopped working and would not go below 68 degrees. I thought maybe the room was too warm, so I refrigerated a few bottles to see if it would at least maintain the current temperature, but within a few hours, those bottles were warm as well.

I tried contacting Amazon, who pointed me in the direction of the manufacturer, who of course, did not bother responding.

I am very disappointed and do not recommend this product. I will never purchase from this manufacturer again.

I gave it 2 stars because it was relatively quiet and compact.

This was given to us as a gift, and I never thought it would be used. How wrong I was. Particularly on a cold winter day the warm lotion feels great on dry skin, especially on the back. Much better than the shock of cold lotion on the skin. It only takes a short time to warm up, you can adjust the temperature of the lotion, and the dispenser works well. I recommend it.

I'm a real weinie when it comes to being cold. I live in the mid-Atlantic so January and February can be bitterly cold. I decided to splurge on this to help avoid my typically chilly routine. Normaly, after I shower, I slather myself head to toe in lotion. Summer, winter, etc., I *always* lotion-up after bathing. I've used hundreds of products and go through them pretty quick.

Good:

It works! I've only had for a week or so, but it seems to heat up to a yummy temperature pretty quickly.

Bad:

IT DRIPS! If you leave it in one place too long, undisturbed, you'll come back to a lotion stalagmite. It's rather big, too, I can't find a place to put it on the sink in our bathrooom plus, of course, it leaks so it can't be over say, the toothbrushes.

Maybe other people have had more success; it'd be nice to hear from them. Overall I'm mostly happy with it so far, but that runny lotiony nose just isn't very attractive.

I live in the Rocky Mountains where it gets cold and dry, so I always always lotion down after a shower. I was given this lotion warmer and it is wonderful! It heats enough lotion to get a full body application, unlike one of the other less expensive Conair lotion warmers.

Three things though. First, it really needs to be thoroughly cleaned each time it's emptied. Second, the warmer doesn't penetrate far enough into the dispensing unit, so I have a full week of cold lotion application to use what's in the bottom so I can get it emptied and cleaned. Finally, I've used it so much that it finally quit working, so I went online to buy another. Holy Cow this thing is expensive!! I'll try a little harder the fix the other one, but will most certainly be buying another one if I can't.

Okay, I've been in your shoes. You are stopping by Amazon to read reviews before heading off to the local grocery super-store. The Oster dehydrator has terrible reviews online, but it happens to be the only model the super-store carries. You are so excited to try dehydrating your summer veggies that you want to chance it. After all, only a dozen people gave it a bad rating, surely they only had bad eggs. If a company is selling a product, surely it went through testing!

Stop right there. Don't do it. Learn from my mistake and save yourself time, energy, and hard earned cash.

Upon arriving home from the super-store, I excitedly took my new dehydrating friend out of its box. This next part is my faultI should have tested the unit before slicing my veggies, but I did not. I happily arranged my zucchini on the trays, set the machine on the counter, and plugged it in. The light turned on, but everything was oddly quiet. Just like in the reviews online, the fan did not operate. Undeterred, I called Oster customer service. The helpful representative told me that the fan makes a "very noticeable" noise when functioning. The silence meant nothing at all was happening. She advised that I return it to the store.

Next, I cleaned and repackaged the product. Thankfully I still had my receipt and made my return. The next day, I went to another store and picked up a different brandNesco. The Nesco was similar in price, but had more features. It has an adjustable temperature and the heating unit is on top, making it easier to maintain and clean. The Nesco is quiet and efficient. Most importantly, it works.

Walk away from the Oster. Trust the reviewers online and buy another model. I wasted was lured in by false hopes and advertising, but it's not too late to save yourself.

If you are looking for a dehydrator to use just a couple time a year, then this one would be great. It is cheap and it gets the job done. I, personally, should have spent the extra $20 to get a Nesco. This one is VERY LOUD when running. Also, the slots in the trays are quite large. So far most every thing I have chopped up has fallen through the trays while drying. This dehydrator has no temperature control either; depending on your goals, this may or may not matter.

I love this dehydrator; we actually bought two of them to keep up with the demand for crispy apple chips. Today the oldest one (was Christmas gift) started shutting off by itself, that is the fan stopped running. The older one which is a couple weeks old started last week to shut off. My husband returned it and got a replacement. I set it up this morning and the fan shut off within and hour after I started it. I have seen one other query regarding the fans shutting off. I would consider this a perfect appliance for the money if only I could find out how to fix the fan issue.

We tried using different electrical outlets but it didn't make any difference.

Honest reviews on Oster FPSTDH0101 4-Tray Electric Food Dehydrator, White

I bought this dehydrator because I wanted to bring jerky with me for a high protein, on-the-go snack at work and other places. I'm not sure why so many people are having as many problems with this machine as they are. Maybe there are a lot of "lemons" in the bunch, but I have had no problems with mine. Maybe I'm one of the lucky few, or maybe people are doing something wrong which causes the machine to fail. I've only used it for batches of jerky, but that's all I wanted it for. Many people have said that it stops and starts up again after a while, but I would guess they have overfilled the trays and the machine is possible heating up too much so shutting down for a while is a safety mechanism. Mine just goes, but I leave quite a bit of room between pieces of jerky so that there is plenty of room for the air to circulate. I have not had it stop once during drying. If you follow the directions it is fairly clear that you need to leave space between pieces. I have not done more than about 2 1/2 lbs of meat at a time so that there is plenty of space for circulation. That seems to be a good amount, and it gives me plenty of jerky for a while. I think you've gotta realize what you are getting before you start griping about the machine. This is an entry level, cheap dehydrator at best that you can get at Wal-Mart. If you are expecting top of the line quality and features, you're kidding yourself. If you want all the bells and whistles, you're gonna pay a lot more for them. It would be nice if it had a timer to turn it off automatically, but again, you get what you pay for and I chose to get a cheaper dehydrator that does not have that option, and really it has not been amuch of an issue. Size-wise, it's about 14 inches across and about 10 inches tall so not that big, and it's not as if I leave it on the counter when it's not in use. I've read a lot of reviews of people complaining about it sounding like a "jet engine". If you think it sounds like a jet engine, I would suggest you've never heard a jet engine. Mine sounds like a fan, a little louder than a regular desk fan but quieter than a floor box fan. That's what it is basically, a fan with a heating mechanism and some trays. I can easily tune it out and so can my wife. Sound has not been an issue for us. All in all, if what you're looking for is a simple to use dehydrator that has no bells and whistles and is cheap, this may be the one for you. Follow the included instructions, and I would guess you'll be fine. Like I mentioned before, maybe there are some bad ones out there, but I have had no problems with mine.

Walked by it a few minutes later and noticed the fan had stopped running. The light was still on indicating it was getting power, but no fan.

First of all it's not perfect. The non-stick coating is thin on the pan, and can get scratched off easy. Plus, there's no easy way to clean off the brown, spots you get from baking. All that aside, this is a great device if you like homemade, and frozen varieties of pizza.

I used to try all kinds of tricks to get a frozen pizza to taste good. I'd microwave them partially first, I'd bake them directly on the oven rack; I'd try greasing the pan, or not greasing it. I had some success with these techniques, but it was a lot of work. This oven does the job, and gets the pizza cooked the way you want it. An easy flip switch on the top, can turn the heat on both sides, just the top, or just the bottom. You control the crispness, and the degree of browning on your pizza.

This oven is also great for baking those commercial, "take and bake" pizzas, from shops like Pappa Murphy's. Further, its better for reheating leftover pizzeria pizza than your microwave. What more can you want? I wanted just one thing, a 14" model. While most frozen pizza is 12" or smaller, you cannot heat one any larger. One final caution, rising crust pizzas will sometimes bubble, or rise into the top-heating element. It's a good idea to stay in the general area while the pizza is cooking, or it can potentially start a fire.

My in-laws gave us one of these as a gift. I thought it was a joke. Then we used it. The Pizzazz consistently cooks frozen pizzas well.

The nonstick disk is simple to clean. I don't understand how anyone would scratch it, unless he's using steel wool or something to clean it. And that is hardly necessary: it washes clean with a bit of soap and water (or even just a clean towel).

Even with rising crust pizzas, we have never had the food come anywhere near the heating element.

My only complaint is that you cannot accelerate the timer. You can adjust it to add time, but once it's set, you have to wait for it to run down. This is a minor inconvenience, though I would like to be able to turn off the heating elements when the pizza is done rather than take the pizza off the disk and wait for the "ding" at the end of the cooking cycle. (You could unplug the machine, but the residual heat from the elements might cook the disk, which obviously stops rotating when you unplug the machine. The elements stay hot for a little while after the cycle ends.)

All in all, this is a surprisingly effective product.

As a single man who eats 2-3 frozen pizzas a week, this was a better purchase than my microwave. Frozen pizzas cook in 15 minutes or less, as compared to 20-23 minutes with a conventional oven. When you wait until the last minute to start cooking, 5 minutes is a long time. Additionally it cooks the pizza perfectly evenly. There are also controls that let you choose between crisp, normal, and light crusts.

**I still have mine over 3 years later and it works like the day I opened it. I sill use it 2-3 times a month (I'm married now, frozen pizza doesn't see itself on the menu 3 nights a week now), and have used it with almost all varieties and brands of pizza with equal success. The nonstick coating is a little scratched however (even though I've taken special interest in keeping it intact). But its still the best oven I own.**

Honest reviews on Presto 03430 Pizzazz Pizza Oven

I received this for Christmas and have tried it out using both regular and rising crust frozen pizzas. It does save time but the results aren't like those that you get from an oven. For one thing the pizza is never done at the end of the recommended cooking time. I always have to add on 4 or 5 minutes. Also, the outer rim of the crust doesn't get crispy like it does in a regular oven. The bottom of the crust cooks okay but the edge of the crust really doesn't get any heat. I baked a Digiorno rising crust pizza on it for the maximum time and the outer edge of the crust was still white. Yes, I followed the instructions on the proper way to cook a rising crust pizza. If you don't like a crunchy crust then this won't be a problem. I would recommend this product for a college student living away from home or for anyone who eats a lot of pizza and doesn't want to heat up their kitchen with a big oven. For the occasional pizza eater though, you might want to pass on this one.

New info: I discovered that if you place the cooked pizza on a cooling rack that's covered with a paper towel the pizza won't get soft and will remain crispy. Before I would just slide the pizza on to the cardboard it came with but that didn't allow any of the the steam from the crust to escape and the crust would become soft. By placing the cooked pizza on a paper towel on a cooling rack that allows the towel to absorb the steam and the rack allows air circulation around the pizza crust. Here are the settings I've been using. On a standard Tombstone pizza I set the control on Lower and set the timer between 17 and 18 minutes. After about 2 minutes I switch the control to Dual. I've found in most cases that the crust always takes longer to cook than the toppings so I start cooking the crust first and then switch to the Dual setting after a few minutes. For a homemade pizza made with raw dough I set the control on Lower and set the timer for 20 minutes. When I switch the control to Dual depends on how many toppings I have on the pizza. If I have just cheese then I wait 10 minutes before switching the control to Dual because the cheese only takes about 10 minutes to melt and start to brown. With more toppings I slide the control to Dual after maybe 5 to 8 minutes.

this little device has changed the way that i eat--at least a couple times a week! i use it to make my own pizza and i must admit IT IS THE BEST PIZZA IN THE WORLD! it always turns out perfectly with the PIZZAZ PIZZA MAKER--whether i use a store-bought crust or a tortilla. i also use it to make fantastic quesadillas and have even used it to make nachos by placing a disposable pan right on the pizza tray. EVERYTHING I MAKE ON IT TURNS OUT WELL--and i'm really not that talented (yet!) in the kitchen.

do yourself a favor and run to the nearest store that carries this handy device. you won't believe how good pizza can taste...
