Why do we always get mould/damp?

[cherryglitter]

woohoo lucky you they're quite bulky aren't they?

They can be, depends on how much they are i suppose. Someone i used to know had one, and it was prob about the size of a large fan heater. Didnt ask what size this one is. Going to pick it up between 2-3!

We got this horrible in our old house, in the bathroom, master bedroom and 2nd bedroom! No amount of spray or leaving the bathroom window open helped, and we never dryied clothes in the house unless in the tumble dryer...

Landlord never cared just told us to leave all the windows open all the time or buy £4 a bottle sprays which keep the mold away for like a few days grrr..

OMG picked up the dehumidifer, its still in the box, with instructions practically brand new! And its quite compact too. Originally from Argos.
Just had it on, and it filled 100ml in an hour!!! So pleased with it. Huge thank u to that lovely lady!!!
