Lifesaver
This has been a lifesaver in my house. No more condensation on the windows and purifies at the same time.

Great dehumidifier for a large room.
Works well and noticeably lowers humidity in a large bedroom. Easy to use, reasonably quiet and effective. Very happy with it.

Fabulous
This is an amazing product...I can't believe how much water we get every day in the wet season. Also the laundry setting is perfect for apartment living. We have to hang our clothes indoors and they dry super quickly.

A winner from Breville.
Pleasing results from this dehumidifier. Noticeable difference in the air - fresh and clean feel. The machine is simple to operate with low maintenance required. It also operates in a relatively quiet manner. The unit can be moved from room to room but I found that having a second humidifier is an easier way to do it. My only criticism would be that ,like a lot of modern day products its plastic construction may shorten productive life. Overall, a good value for money purchase.

Key benefits
- 2-in-1 Functionality: Combines dehumidification and air purification to improve indoor air quality and comfort.
- Antiviral Protect Filter: Reduces viral particles including SARS-CoV-2, H1N1, and H3N2, supporting a healthier home environment.
- Large Room Coverage: Effectively treats spaces up to 60 m², suitable for open plan areas and large rooms.
- Smart App Control: Allows remote operation and scheduling via the Breville Home Connect app for added convenience.
- High Water Extraction: Removes up to 25 litres of moisture per day, helping prevent mould and dampness.

- Sensitive Choice Certified: Approved by the National Asthma Council Australia, making it suitable for asthma and allergy sufferers.
Q: Is this dehumidifier quiet enough for a bedroom overnight?
A: It can be used in a bedroom, but it is not an ultra-quiet model. This unit has two fan speeds, so low speed is the better choice overnight, while higher extraction settings are more noticeable in very quiet rooms.
Q: Can it help dry washing indoors in an apartment?
A: Yes. The laundry drying function is designed for indoor clothes drying and can remove moisture released by wet washing, which helps clothes dry faster. It is still a dehumidifier, so it will not replace a dedicated tumble dryer.
Q: Will it suit a large open plan living area?
A: Yes, for a single large room. Breville LAD708WHT is recommended for rooms up to 60m2, which suits many open plan living spaces, kitchens or combined areas, but it is not intended to dehumidify an entire multi-room home at once.
Q: Does the Breville LAD708WHT need Wi-Fi to work?
A: No. Breville LAD708WHT can be used from the unit itself with Auto, Continuous and timer functions, so dehumidifying does not depend on the app. Wi-Fi adds remote control and voice commands through Alexa or Google Assistant.
Q: What filter system does this 2-in-1 model use?
A: Breville LAD708WHT combines dehumidifying with a 3-stage air filtration setup that includes an AntiViral Protect filter and a washable pre-filter. It is designed to clean the air while removing moisture, rather than dehumidifying only.
Q: Is 15kg manageable if I want to move it around?
A: Yes, for occasional repositioning around the home. At 15kg, this unit is portable enough to move between rooms when needed, but it is still a substantial appliance, so it is less suited to frequent lifting or carrying up stairs.
