Midwestern humidity! I bought this product for the closets, and it really works well.. Another reviewer left a great, detailed review about the set-up and what to expect when using this product, so I won’t repeat it here, but I noticed other customers mentioned having problems with spillage—which can easily happen if the container is in an awkward spot. The lid just rests on the top, and even though the tablet holder/drainage section snaps into place, if the lid comes off when handling it, it’s easy to have the whole thing slip and dump the collected moisture (now mixed with the tablet gook) all over the place. The gunk is pretty much impossible to clean up properly. If it dumps out on carpet, shampooing the carpet is the only way to get it cleaned up. It holds a LOT of moisture so you don’t want it to dump out.
To get around this, I bought some of those clear plastic pantry/fridge organizer bins with the built in handles (available on Amazon), and place each damp rid unit into a bin. This prevents the units from being bumped and tipping over in the closet, and makes it easy to handle the units when it’s time to pull them out of the closet to dump the collected moisture. I use a 9”L x 5”W x 4”H bin (which narrows to 8.4 L x 4.3W at the bottom), and the damp rid unit sits in there perfectly. Makes it so easy to carry the unit to where you can dump the moisture! Pour slowly at first—the shape and length of the dumping tube makes the stuff shoot out a little further than you expect. As one reviewer mentioned, wait until the tablet is completely used up before replacing it. The tablet turns into a gloppy goo as it does its work, so it’s messy to deal with until it’s used up. I really prefer this system to the loose granules or the packets which left crystallized chunks clinging to the container that would pop out after the liquid was dumped, and get everywhere. I really like how much easier and cleaner it is to dump out the liquid and replace the tablet, and how much dampness it collects before needing to replace the tablet.
