Sebo vacs, Danby Dehumidifiers, Cotton Towels

It is the dehumidifier season and I, like the rest of the world, have been trying to keep a finished basement free from mold, mildew and other damp type of odors. I have come to a couple of conclusions. Firstly, you are much better off if you have air conditioning. It does not accomplish all your dehumidification objectives but it goes a long way. That being said, I like the Danby low temperature dehumidifier (starting at $259.95) because it is quiet, and I use it in the finished part of my basement. Its one drawback is it does not have autorestart after a power outage, and I seem to have had more than my fair share of those recently.

  • On the other hand, the Comfort-Aire low temp dehumidifier (starting at $319.95) really cranks away at moisture removal, but its noise level is such that I would want it at least 12- 15 feet away from me. So I have my Comfort-Aire dehumidifier in an unfinished part of the basement, which would otherwise be incredibly damp.

    I have been buying towels for our new summer house and thought that I had bought top of the line towels, until I was on a photo shoot of our new Organic towel line ($109.95 for a set of six) and discovered the softest towels ever. These large bath size towels never made it back from the photo shoot to our sample room, and are now firmly HER towels in my bathroom.

    I have been slowly falling in love with my new Sebo C2.1 canister vacuum cleaner (priced at $589.00). I think it is a vastly under-appreciated vacuum cleaner, its suction power is awesome, and for those of you who are like me and drag their vacuum cleaner around corners, this vacuum comes with huge thick bumpers so you will not mess up your paintwork.

    The plumber comes next week to hook up my new Aquasana whole house filter (priced at $843.15) which I have come to realize is the easiest way to avoid multiple shower filters and water filters. My husband also spends a fortune in bottled water which I regard as one of Madison Avenue’s greatest successes - a dollar for a small bottle of water? Someone somewhere must be laughing at all of us. I will let you know next month how the Aquasana performs.
