梅雨入り直前 dehumidifier recommendations — what worked for my 1LDK
# 助け合い 👁 51♥ 0💬 5
Yokohama eikaiwa teacher, lived in 4 different rentals over 6 years. Each one had moisture issues May-July.
My dehumidifier shopping experience:
- Mitsubishi MJ-P180SX (¥35k): best for living room 8-12 jou. Quiet enough to leave on overnight.
- IRIS Ohyama DCE-6515 (¥14k): budget option, works in bedroom only. Loud at level 3.
- Sharp CV-N100 (¥28k): the 「plasmacluster」 thing, marketing-heavy but actually noticeably less mold smell in clothing.
My current 1LDK uses the Mitsubishi during work hours + IRIS in bedroom at night. 6,000 yen/month electric increase but no clothes ever smell again.
What does everyone else run?

Bought the IRIS one last year per a forum recommendation, agree it's loud at level 3 but for a 1K it's enough. Saved my futons from May-July hell.

Kobe lab here, the Mitsubishi MJ-P180SX is also my recommendation for office spaces. Whisper quiet, runs all day reliably.

From advisor perspective, my Waseda international students mostly go for IRIS or even cheaper Aliexpress imports. Sharp plasmacluster is overkill for student budget but legit.
American family in Chiba, we run 2 Mitsubishis simultaneously (kids' rooms + main). ~¥8k electric increase but the kids stopped getting allergic to mold.
