Features

The MeacoDry ABC is Meaco's entry-level compressor dehumidifier, sold in two sizes and three colours. The Amazon listing behind this page (B07FN8RMHT) used to be a 12L. It now opens the ABC 10L in black. On 28 October 2026 its only offer was £142.97 from Buy It Direct, a third-party seller rated 3.5 stars (59% positive over 12 months), not Amazon itself. Meaco sells the same 10L direct for £129.99 in any colour, and the silver 10L is £129.99 on Amazon too.

Which size?

Buy the 10L for a flat, one damp bedroom or a small house with condensation. Buy the 12L if you dry washing indoors most days or are treating a whole house. Neither suits a cold garage or caravan in winter: compressor units lose most of their extraction below about 10°C, so a desiccant unit is the better choice there.

On price alone, the Honeywell 12L (£119.99) and EcoAir DC12 MK3 (£129.00) undercut the ABC 12L. The ABC's case is its 35dB noise rating and a 4.7 average from 6,380 ratings. Our MeacoDry ABC review covers all of it in detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes does the MeacoDry ABC come in?

Two: 10 litres a day and 12 litres a day, each in black, silver or white from Meaco direct. On Amazon the 12L is listed in black and white only.

Is the MeacoDry ABC 10L or 12L better?

The 12L removes two more litres a day for about £20 more, in the same case with the same 35dB rating. The 10L suits a flat or single room; the 12L suits indoor laundry or a whole house.

How much does the MeacoDry ABC cost to run?

About 3.9p an hour at 24.5p per kWh if the compressor runs continuously. With the humidistat switching it off at your target humidity, 3p to 4p an hour is realistic.

Does the MeacoDry ABC work in a cold garage?

Not well in winter. Like all compressor dehumidifiers it loses most of its extraction below about 10°C, so a desiccant dehumidifier is the better choice for cold, unheated spaces.

Can the MeacoDry ABC drain continuously?

Yes. It has a spout that takes a standard garden hose, so it can run without you emptying the 2.6-litre tank.
