The ProBreeze PB-03 is a compact dehumidifier intended for small spaces. It's effectively a scaled-up version of the ProBreeze PB-02, with a higher 18-ounce capacity and a larger 0.4 gal (1.5 L) water tank. Like its smaller stablemate, it has an automatic shutoff that triggers when its tank is filled.
Our Verdict
The ProBreeze PB-03 is terrible for basement use. It has a very low capacity and doesn't generate enough airflow to effectively draw in air in larger dens. It also lacks a port for continuous drainage and has a small tank that can't hold much water.
- Fairly compact size.
- Low dehumidification capacity.
- Max airflow is very limited.
- Small water tank.
- Can't be configured for continuous drainage.
The ProBreeze PB-03 is a sub-par option for bathrooms. Its dehumidification capacity is insufficient for all but the smallest bathrooms. It also can't be configured for continuous drainage, so you'll need to regularly check on it and empty its tank.
- Fairly compact size.
- Doesn't generate much heat.
- Low dehumidification capacity.
- Small water tank.
- Can't be configured for continuous drainage.
The ProBreeze PB-03 is a bad fit for large rooms, though it isn't designed for this kind of use. Its capacity is simply too low for efficient use in anything but really small rooms, and it doesn't generate enough airflow to promote adequate air circulation in bigger spaces.
- Doesn't make much noise while running.
- Low dehumidification capacity.
- Max airflow is very limited.
- Small water tank.
The ProBreeze PB-03 is decent for use in bedrooms. It's small enough to be set up within tighter bedrooms, and it runs quietly enough not to be much of a disturbance, even if you're a light sleeper. That said, it's really only meant for small rooms that don't require serious moisture removal due to its low capacity, small water tank, and lack of continuous drainage options.
- Fairly compact size.
- Doesn't generate much heat.
- Doesn't make much noise while running.
- Low dehumidification capacity.
- Small water tank.
The ProBreeze PB-03 has a very low capacity, which is insufficient for moisture removal in medium and large-sized rooms.
- Low dehumidification capacity.
The ProBreeze PB-03 produces little noise. It won't be overly disruptive if you leave it running nearby while you're watching TV or having a conversation at a normal volume.
- Doesn't make much noise while running.
The ProBreeze PB-03 doesn't produce much heat, so when left to run for an extended period, it won't have much of an impact on the room's ambient temperature.
- Doesn't generate much heat.

Popular Dehumidifier Comparisons
The ProBreeze PB-03 is a compact dehumidifier meant for small rooms. It's a slightly more versatile proposition than other compact options like the ProBreeze PB-02 or Eva-Dry EDV-1100 due to its higher overall capacity and only slightly larger size. However, it's still far from a fantastic option for use in even moderately-sized rooms due to its low capacity, small water tank, and lack of a port for continuous drainage.
Test Results
This dehumidifier has sub-par airflow performance. Like the ProBreeze PB-02, it has only a single fan speed setting. While it generates slightly higher airflow than its smaller stablemate, it's still too low to allow the vacuum to draw in moist air in anything other than very small rooms.
