B&Q is selling a £7.50 dehumidifier that shoppers say 'works wonders' and gets rid of mould and condensation in '48 hours'. The Blyss Curve Bright White and Translucent Moisture Trap is a non-electric dehumidifier designed to 'effectively reduce condensation in your home'.
The product comes as the UK faces freezing conditions with multiple Met Office weather warnings. The Met Office has issued further warnings for snow and ice ahead of a 'multi-hazard' event on Thursday into Friday, with Storm Goretti expected to bring heavy snow, wind, and rain.
B&Q says the moisture trap 'helps to reduce the amount of moisture present in the air, making it more healthy'. It has a spill-proof design, water level monitor, and a 900ml tray capacity. Refill discs are available in neutral or scented options.
One shopper, Bella, reported: 'Within 2 days of use there was 1cm depth of water in collection tank! Condensation gone, black mould gone.' Another customer, Heather, said: 'Cheap and cheerful but does the job. Bought one and immediately went back for two more!'
However, some users noted issues. John claimed the refill 'supposed to last 6 weeks, gone in 3', while Magrat found the plastic container 'very difficult to undo'.
