Our Verdict
Frigidaire FFAD3533W1
Hisense HD3526
The Hisense HD3526 is a better 35-pint dehumidifier than the Frigidaire FFAD3533W1. The Hisense is considerably more compact, runs slightly quieter, and provides a slightly higher dehumidification capacity. That said, the Frigidaire is fractionally more efficient and produces less heat with sustained operation.
