I got a 65 pint GE dehumidifier this summer and it's got the little energy star logo on it. Since plugging it in our Kwh useage went up 50%!!
My wife says she hear's it turning on-off then back on again quite frequently. I know that's a good way to suck energy. I would think an energy star appliance would have such a simple bug like that worked out.
What do you fella's think? Defective? Take it back? Or operator error?
It has some feature that will automatically shut it off in 4 hours, but then it won't automatically turn back on so I find this feature just about useless.
