Dehumidifier for Home 2.2L (GB-100) – Electric Dehumidifier with UV Purification, 1–24 Hour Timer & Remote Control
Product description
If your rooms feel damp, stale, or just a bit “off”, a portable dehumidifier is one of the most direct ways to tackle it. The Dehumidifier for Home 2.2L (GB-100) is built for that everyday problem: pulling moisture out of the air to help reduce mould, fogging and unpleasant odours.
That said, it’s not a whole-house system. With a 2.2L water tank and a specified collection rate under a defined humidity/temperature scenario, it’s best viewed as a practical bedroom, bathroom, office or small-space fix. If you’re expecting miracles in a very large or persistently damp area, you may find it a bit limiting.
The essentials
This 2.2L electric dehumidifier is designed for portable home use and includes two operating modes plus a sleep mode for quieter running. It also comes with a 1 to 24-hour timer, and a UV purification function built into the air outlets.
In real day-to-day terms, it’s the kind of appliance you’d run overnight in a bedroom, or during damp weather in a bathroom, to keep the air feeling less clammy. You’d also expect it to help with musty smells and condensation-related issues that build up when ventilation isn’t great.
Worth noting: the product uses an automatic defrost system, which is important in colder conditions where frost can form. That’s one of the features that helps it keep working without you needing to manually intervene.
What you’ll notice in use
The dehumidifier uses two modes—an effective dehumidification mode for moisture removal and a lower-speed mode for energy saving. It also features a sleep mode that keeps noise under 30 dB and turns off all lights, so you’re not lying in bed under a glowing display.
It’s controlled in two ways: you can adjust settings via the LED display and you can also use the included remote control to change power and standby times. That dual control is genuinely handy if you like to set it and forget it, or if you’re sitting across the room while working.
There’s also an auto shut-off protection: when the 2.2L tank reaches full capacity, it switches off, and a red indicator light reminds you to empty the water tank.
The UV purification lamps are a more “special” touch than many basic models—placed at the left and right air outlets—though results will depend on airflow, room conditions, and how long you run it.
Key takeaways on performance & coverage
The manufacturer’s figures state that it can collect 500ml of water per day when the ambient conditions are 30°C and 80% RH, using a 40W power rating. Those numbers matter because they give you a baseline for expectations: it’s intended for typical household dampness rather than heavy industrial-style drying.
So, it makes sense if your goal is everyday moisture management—condensation in bathrooms, dampness creeping into offices, or that bedroom chill that makes clothes feel less fresh.
It may not suit you if you’re dealing with an ongoing, severe damp problem where you’d realistically need more aggressive remediation (for example, structural leaks) alongside dehumidification. In those cases, a dehumidifier can help reduce symptoms, but it won’t fix the root cause.

What’s included and what to check before buying
Before you commit, it’s worth checking your situation against what this unit is designed to do. If your main issue is condensation and musty smells in smaller rooms, this aligns well with those use cases.
You’ll also want to think about maintenance. Because the water tank is removable for emptying and cleaning, you’ll need to get into a rhythm of emptying it—especially if the room is quite humid. The auto shut-off helps prevent overflow, but the tank still has to be emptied.
Another practical consideration is how you’ll place it. With air outlets on both sides and a portable build, it’s generally easier to position in a bedroom corner or near the bathroom doorway, but you’ll still get better results when airflow isn’t blocked.
When it makes sense
This Dehumidifier for Home 2.2L (GB-100) is a solid purchase if you want a straightforward portable dehumidifier with comfort features—sleep mode under 30 dB, a 1–24 hour timer, remote control, and automatic defrost.
It’s especially worth considering if you’re trying to keep a bedroom or home office from feeling damp overnight, or you’re regularly dealing with bathroom condensation and the odours that can follow.
However, you may want to skip it if you need dehumidification for a very large space, or if you’re expecting it to cope with consistently severe dampness without other steps. And if remote control convenience and UV purification aren’t priorities for you, it can feel like a few extra features you might not fully benefit from.
Mini FAQ
Does the dehumidifier turn off automatically when the tank is full?
Yes. It automatically shuts off when the 2.2L water tank reaches full capacity, and a red indicator light reminds you to empty it.
Is there a sleep mode for night use?
There is a sleep mode, listed as quieter than 30 dB, and it turns off all lights for undisturbed sleep.
What does the UV purification do?
UV purification lamps are fitted to the left and right air outlets. This is intended to help you enjoy fresher, drier air, though the overall effect will depend on how long you run the unit and your room conditions.
Does it defrost automatically?
Yes. The unit includes an automatic defrost function that starts when frost is detected on the condenser fins, then stops once temperatures rise again.
Can you control it without the display?
You can. It includes a remote control so you can adjust power and standby times without getting up.
Final verdict
Buy it if you want an all-rounder portable dehumidifier for everyday damp control—sleep-friendly operation, a timed schedule, remote convenience, removable tank emptying, and automatic defrost all look like the right building blocks.
Pass on it if you’re trying to tackle heavy, persistent damp in a large area, where this 2.2L capacity and the stated collection rate may feel underpowered. It’s best treated as a practical room-by-room moisture manager rather than a replacement for fixing the underlying cause of damp.
