The dehumidifier helps reduce damp and condensation in bathrooms without needing electricity, and it’s currently on sale with express free delivery
As Britain’s temperatures take a nosedive, condensation and dampness are increasingly likely to run riot – particularly in poorly ventilated bathrooms. One method to tackle this menace is with an affordable and effective dehumidifier, with one budget-friendly option currently discounted at Debenhams.
Usually priced at £29.99, Debenhams has slashed the cost of the ProBreeze Osmo 1.3L moisture absorber to £27.99. Customers can also secure complimentary express delivery on this item by entering code FREEDEL during checkout.
The modest price reduction isn’t the sole money-saving benefit, as this gadget operates without any electricity whatsoever. Rather, it utilises a refill tablet capable of enduring up to 100 days, according to ProBreeze.
Extra tablets are obtainable from the ProBreeze website, with a twin-pack priced at £11.99.
Most electric dehumidifiers tend to be rather cumbersome and require mains power to operate, which can prove restrictive depending on the damp’s location. The Osmo moisture absorber offers greater flexibility, and measuring 14cm in width and 22.8cm in height, it’s ideal for positioning on windowsills and shelving, or tackling moisture within vehicles or garden outbuildings, reports the Manchester Evening News.

It can also be discreetly placed inside wardrobes or atop kitchen cabinets without the hassle of finding a power socket.
The Osmo boasts devoted admirers online, with one declaring: “These are great and work very well. This is the third one I have ordered; that’s how impressed I am with them.” Meanwhile, another purchaser declared “they last four times longer than the disposable ones”.
A third delighted customer revealed: “Got this for my bathroom that was always damp after showers, and the difference has been amazing. No steam running down walls, and my window is so much drier. Would definitely recommend.”
Another user praised the product, commenting: “This is exactly what my en-suite needed”, before adding: “Something to help with condensation in there, it’s completely silent and does not need any power. I like how the refill tablets are not expensive either.”
A further reviewer expressed similar enthusiasm, stating: “This Osmo dehumidifier is a simple bit of kit, but it does exactly what you want, no plugs, no noise, just quietly absorbing moisture. I’ve been using it in a musty bathroom, and it’s definitely helped take the edge off the condensation and that damp smell.”
Given that this is a moisture trap, one possible limitation is that it probably won’t match the effectiveness of a larger, electric dehumidifier.
Properties battling with more severe condensation or bigger spaces may need to look at a more robust solution, such as a plug-in dehumidifier, like the 16L/Day Ultra-Quiet Dehumidifier for Bedroom, now £79.99 at Amazon or the DMD 16L/Day Dehumidifier for Home Damp with Digital Humidity Display, £89.99 at Tesco.
