A cheap, best-selling 25-pint unit for a damp room or small basement with a floor drain. Pick a more efficient model if it will run all summer.

Pros
- Its big 3-gallon bucket runs about three times longer between emptyings than typical small units
- Lift-and-twist body nests down for storage when the season ends
- App and voice control, auto restart and auto defrost
Cons
- Only 20 pints a day under the current DOE test, so it suits a single room, not a wet basement
- Efficiency is only at the small-unit minimum

A tough, compact pump unit for a small crawl space or cool basement, where a plastic portable would not fit or last. For a living space, a cheaper 50-pint unit removes more water.

A small, quiet and very efficient unit for a bedroom, closet or small apartment. It is too small for a damp basement.
