We bought this for a humid basement. It has startled me at how much water it is pulling from the air and has made a noticeable difference to the humidity levels in the basement. Well worth the purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very happy with the amount of moisture being collected in our lower floor of our home.Runs quiet and like the adjustable speed on the fan. I now run the unit in dry mode set the humidity at 50 but the unit never shuts off even when it reaches the setting?

Hi Michael B o, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you’re happy with the amount of moisture your Frigidaire dehumidifier is removing, its quiet operation, and the adjustable fan speed. We’re sorry, however, that the unit does not appear to shut off after reaching the 50% humidity setting.
As a basic troubleshooting step, please make sure the unit is in Dry Mode and that the humidity setting is properly set to 50%. Also, ensure the room’s doors and windows are closed as much as possible and that the air filter is clean to allow proper airflow. Please note that the unit may continue running for a period to monitor humidity and maintain the selected level.
If the unit continues to run constantly without cycling off, please visit Frigidaire.ca to connect with our live chat team or call 1-800-265-8352, Monday–Friday, 8:30am–8pm ET. Our team can provide further troubleshooting and help with the appropriate next steps.
Thus heavy duty unit is working well removing the humidity from our basement. I have it set to drain on its own. I would like it even more if it was whisper quiet. I was surprised how heavy it was so it is well built. My last dehumidifier ( not frigidaire) quit after 2 years. Here is hoping this unit lasts longer.

I carefully followed all the instructions to connect the garden hose and operate the unit in continuous drain mode, but it still did not work. The water continued to collect in the bucket instead of draining through the hose. I contacted Frigidaire Support for assistance, but they were unable to determine the cause of the problem. After doing my own research online, I discovered that Part EA155D was missing from the package. I am very disappointed with this experience. The missing part prevented the unit from functioning as advertised and caused me considerable frustration and inconvenience.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Honest Robert, thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about your experience with your Frigidaire 50 Pint Built-In Pump Dehumidifier, especially after carefully following the instructions and discovering that a part needed for the continuous drain setup was missing.
The FHDP5033Y1 is designed with both a built-in pump and a continuous drain option. Frigidaire's troubleshooting guidance also recommends ensuring the drain hose is properly installed, positioned below the drain connection, and free of kinks or blockages.
Since you have identified a potentially missing component and have already contacted our Support team without a resolution, we recommend having the unit and required drain components reviewed to ensure everything needed for the continuous drain function is present and properly installed.
We appreciate you bringing this experience to our attention. Your feedback regarding the missing part, support experience, and continuous drain functionality is valuable.
If you need assistance with your dehumidifier or the missing part, please connect with us through live chat at Frigidaire.ca or call us at 1-800-265-8352, Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM–8:00 PM ET. We'd be happy to assist you further. — Reed
Excellent: dehumidifier dehumidifies without freezing coils!
on August 19, 2026
Posted by: Vavs74
I bought the Frigidaire 50 Pint Built-In Pump dehumidifier because my previous dehumidifier had been constantly malfunctioning: its coils would freeze very often and seemingly for no reason. This doesn't happen with my new Frigidaire machine. It just keeps doing its job.

This is a great whole home dehumidifier with pump. It works very well on our two-story home, even placed in her basement. It is lowered our general humidity in our whole entire house. I haven't used the Wi-Fi feature yet, but everything else about has been fantastic.

Overall, we are sooo happy with our purchase. It is hands down the best dehumidifier we have purchased in a long time b/c we have had our share of machines. The app is a wonderful feature. We love how it enables us to observe and compared the different variables (I.e. humidity over time) so we can we adjust our settings depending on the time of day and the weather at that moment. Though it resides in our basement it is so quiet and quite possibly the best purchased we have made in a very long time. Thank you 😊
