Great, Innovative, Smart
Really impressed with Breville The Smart Dry Dehumidifier. I use it in my office where I use my 3D printers. I was amazed at just how much water it pulled out of the air. I could actually feel the difference in the room after running it. Works great and does exactly what I needed it to do.

fantastic.
AAA+ Highly recommend. I love this product. Wow, it certainly works. I did my research and one of my friends had one and it went from there, I went into GoodGuys to actually have a look and I bought. I use it in the bedrooms and loungeroom, love how its on wheels. I am certainly amazed with the water it collects.

Perfect solution for the water condensation issue
I brought this dehumidifier for my bed room with the ensuite as i have having an issue of water condensation in the windows. The water condensation made mould in the window frame. Im using this dehumidifier over night for 11hrs and the water condensation issue disappeared since day 1. The unit is easy to operate and clearing the water tank is easy as well. I have connected it to Alexa to automate the switch on and switch off times.

Perfectly work
My room would grow mold due to the humidity every winter, and it was always damp. I couldn't take it anymore, so I searched online for a while before buying this product, and the results were satisfactory. At first, I was suspicious if it could remove moisture, so I left it on and closed the door, checking it several times. Initially, there didn't seem to be much difference, but after waiting and seeing the water in the water bottle, I realized I had made the right decision. I used it before bed for about two consecutive days, and it was so nice that it didn't have a strong, damp smell. I recommend turning it on at night when there's a bit of noise, so I suggest turning it on when the room isn't in use.

Does the job!
Couldn’t use it while in the room- way to noisy… even on night mode! But it seems to collect a lot of water and the timer function is good.

Great model
I love the features of this dehumidifier. I have an earlier model which is great. But this one is a bit quieter and the addition of casters is so convenient.

Laundry drying effectiveness
8/10 - Dedicated mode accelerates drying of clothes indoors.
Noise level vs category average
7/10 - Quieter than many comparable dehumidifiers, suitable for use in sleeping areas.
Energy efficiency score
7/10 - Offers solid efficiency for its class, though not the lowest power consumption available.
Allergy relief rating
8/10 - Helps reduce allergens by controlling humidity and filtering dust from the air.
Key benefits

Q: Is the Breville Smart Dry Connect dehumidifier suitable for a bedroom or home office?
A: Yes. The Smart Dry Connect is recommended for small enclosed rooms up to 30m², such as a bedroom, nursery or home office. It is better suited to targeted moisture control than large open-plan areas, where a larger-capacity unit may suit better.
Q: Can this Breville dehumidifier be controlled when no one is at home?
A: Yes. This model supports Wi-Fi control through the Breville Home Connect app, so humidity can be monitored and adjusted when away from home. It also adds Bluetooth control, but Bluetooth is intended for nearby use rather than remote access.
Q: Does the Breville Smart Dry Connect work with Alexa or Google Assistant?
A: Yes. The Smart Dry Connect supports voice control with Amazon Alexa and Google Home or Google Assistant after it is linked in a compatible smart home setup. Voice commands are useful for basic operation, but initial setup still requires the app.
Q: What does Sensair live humidity control do on this model?
A: Sensair is Breville's live humidity control mode. It automatically adjusts operation to keep the room in a more comfortable humidity zone, which means less manual tweaking and a lower chance of the room feeling overly dry after longer run times.
Q: Is the Breville Smart Dry Connect a good option for allergy-sensitive households?
A: It can suit allergy-sensitive homes because this model is Sensitive Choice certified. That relates to suitability for sensitive users, but it is still designed to reduce excess moisture, not replace an air purifier for smoke, dust or odours.
