Why it matters
The Pro Breeze PB-02 Dehumidifier is a compact small-room dehumidifier with a 17 fluid ounces bucket, rated for 215 square feet and removing up to 0.25 liters per day a day.
Aim for 40 to 60 percent relative humidity indoors: drier air irritates airways and skin, wetter air feeds dust mites and mold.
Its rated area of 215 square feet is one of the smallest ratings we cover: 5 of the 99 dehumidifiers with a stated figure come in lower, and the range runs from 110 square feet to 7,500 square feet.
Price-wise it sat in the cheapest third of the 11 compact models we cover when we checked; the button shows today's price.
It qualifies for our list Best Dehumidifiers for Bedrooms and Apartments, where it is ranked against every model that meets the same rule.
Compared with the Pro Breeze 50-Pint Dehumidifier: power draw 21 watts here vs 450 watts; tank 17 fluid ounces here vs 10 pints.

Pros and cons
Pros
- 0.25 liters per day removal
- 17 fluid ounces bucket
- Rated for 215 square feet
Cons
- Needs regular cleaning to stay hygienic
Limitations to weigh
- Not stated on the Pro Breeze PB-02 Dehumidifier listing: airflow. Ask the seller or check the manual before relying on it.
- Pints-per-day figures depend on the test conditions; since 2019 the US test uses cooler, drier air, so newer ratings look smaller than older ones for the same machine.
