Humidity has always been a pain in my city apartment, mold creeping in, clothes taking forever to dry, and that sticky, suffocating air I dread when the rainy season hits. I bought the AROEVE Dehumidifier hoping it might finally tame the dampness. Was it a home comfort game-changer? Let’s find out.
What Is the AROEVE Dehumidifier?
AROEVE Dehumidifier is a compact, plug-in unit designed for small to medium rooms (about 10–15 m² per manufacturer spec). It uses a built-in water-tank system (around 990–1200 ml depending on the model) to condense and collect moisture from the air; the device automatically shuts off when the tank is full, so it doesn’t overflow if left running.
It also boasts relatively quiet operation (the model advertises ~28 dB noise) and low power consumption (~23 W), making it suitable for bedrooms, bathrooms, or closets.
Why I Bought It
I live in a humid/climate-challenged area where dampness creeps in fast, especially after rain or during the rainy season. My concerns weren’t just comfort but also protecting clothes, shoes, and electronics from moisture damage. Traditional ventilation alone wasn’t enough.
I wanted something that was compact and easy to move around, didn’t use much power, could run quietly at night without disturbing sleep, and actually made a noticeable difference to dampness in small spaces (bedroom, bathroom).
My Experience Using It
When the AROEVE unit arrived, it looked neat and compact, smaller than I expected for a dehumidifier, which was a plus since I don’t have much floor space. The first plug-in was simple: fill the tank, place it in the bedroom corner, and turn it on. The fan was whisper-quiet, so I could barely hear it at night, which was important because I often run the AC too.
Within the first 24 hours, I already noticed a difference: after heavy thunderstorms the previous night, the air felt less “muggy,” and the typical damp smell that lingers in the room was diminished. Over the next two days, the water tank collected around 400–500 ml, more than I expected for a small room. That alone gave me hope that it was actually doing something.
A few nights in, I slept comfortably without waking up feeling sticky or suffocated by humidity. My wardrobe, which often gives off a damp smell, started smelling fresher, too. Even my sneakers, which I usually dread wearing after rainy days, felt less damp and smelled cleaner.
Using it in the bathroom when drying clothes indoors proved helpful too. Instead of that musty damp smell after a shower or drying laundry inside, things dried faster and the room didn’t get that usual lingering wet-air stench.
However, and this is real talk, the effects were only moderate. On particularly humid days (or after heavy rain), the room still felt somewhat heavy; AROEVE didn’t “erase” humidity completely. I found myself emptying the water tank every one or two days, manageable, but still something to stay on top of. Also, because the unit is small, its impact seemed limited to a room at a time; it didn’t noticeably change the feel in larger connected spaces like my living room corridor.
Finally, I noticed that if the room was poorly ventilated, windows closed, no airflow, the dehumidifier didn’t feel as effective. It seemed to do best when there was at least minimal airflow (fan on, window slightly cracked), helping circulate air while removing moisture.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Compact and easy to move around, and ideal for small apartments or bedrooms
- Quiet operation (< 30 dB), so it’s good for night use or bedrooms
- Noticeable moisture removal… it collected 400–500 ml in a 24–48h span in a small room
- Helps reduce damp smell, makes clothes/shoes less damp after rain or indoor drying
- Auto shut-off when water tank is full, so no overflow worries
- Modest power consumption (low electricity cost)
Cons
- Effect is modest and therefore not enough for very humid or large spaces
- Needs regular water-tank emptying every 1–2 days
- Limited reach… one unit per room, won’t dehumidify house-wide
- Not a substitute for ventilation, as it performs best with airflow and windows slightly open
Is It a Scam?
No… AROEVE Dehumidifier is a real product with legitimate functions and genuine customer usage. It isn’t a miracle fix, but for its price and size, it delivers reasonable moisture reduction. As long as expectations are realistic (small rooms, mild humidity), it’s a fair buy.

Conclusion: Would I Recommend It?
Yes, but with context. If you live in a small apartment or have one or two rooms that get humid (bedroom, bathroom, closet), AROEVE is a solid, budget-friendly dehumidifier that will make a noticeable difference. It won’t revolutionize your whole home’s atmosphere, but for small spaces, mild humidity, and personal comfort, it’s a good value pick.
If you need strong dehumidification for larger rooms, repeated heavy humidity (rainy seasons), or want to tackle persistent dampness throughout a house, you’ll do better with a more powerful model.
