Choosing a compact appliance

• Dehumidifier: capacity is measured in litres of water removed per day; a damp basement or a large room calls for a stronger unit.
• Portable washer and dryer: handy in an apartment or condo; check the capacity in kilograms and the space near a sink.
• Extra cold storage: a mini fridge with a freezer compartment helps at the office or cottage, while a chest freezer holds more groceries.
• Airflow: leave a little room around a fridge or freezer so air can circulate.

Frequently asked questions

Where should I put a dehumidifier?

In the dampest room, often the basement, a few inches away from walls and furniture so air can circulate. If the model has a continuous drain outlet, set it near a floor drain so you don't have to empty the tank.

Upright or chest freezer: which should I choose?

An upright freezer takes less floor space and its shelves make it easier to organize food. A chest freezer gives more usable room for bulky items.
