Happy to find dehumidifier reviews! I’m from Brazil and the local market for dehumidifiers is TERRIBLE, thankfully I was able to buy the 2024 model FFAD3534W1 for roughly ~1600 BRL importing via Amazon BR
Buying locally the best I could find (for the same price) is a model with specs similar to the AGLucky you guys reviewed here which is no match to this Frigidaire and its struggling to deal with humidity here, the Frigidaire unit will be here in 7 days or so, extremely excited to see how it`ll perform!
Btw some small differences, according to Frigidaire specsheet the 2023 FFAD3533W1 unit ranges from 167/194/229 cfm (low/med/high) while the 2024 unit is rated at 118/141/159 cfm. Bucket capacity is 2.11 gal on the 2023 unit and 1.7 gal on the 2024 unit. 2023 unit is larger and top-exhaust, 2024 unit is smaller and side-exhaust. Power draw is basically the same (380w vs 370w informed) though 2023 version uses R-410a refrigerant and 2024 uses R-32.

Hey brnbrito, appreciate the heads up on those product differences, good to know there’s some variation in design across different markets! We’ll update our review with this info in a bit.

Not sure if different market as my unit came from Amazon US, probably just the usual yearly update with minor changes, what I found interesting is mainly the lower cfm which can be beneficial in some cases, though I still wish cfm values weren’t so close comparing low/medium/high fan settings.
Anyway, the Frigidaire is here and performance is GREAT, puts my old unit (similar spec to the AGLucky) to shame, draws roughly twice the power but in 2h it managed to get RH down to 40%, while the smaller unit gets to maybe 50% after 12 hours. Test conducted on our 12m²/28m³ room so performance will be much better in our smaller laundry/bathroom.
Much happier with this dehumidifier since I can just run it for 3-4h and call it a day, while our “old” Eos EDU02C wouldn’t perform as well even running it 5x longer, I’d say for those who do need a dehumidifier, try to oversize as much as possible so it can get the job done quicker and won’t stagnate as easily, we could literally run the older unit 24/7 and it’d stagnate at ~50% on our room, was insane seeing the Frigidaire get down to 38% RH in just 3 hours.
