| Our take | The shorter, wider Y1 body with a slightly higher certified rating than the FHDD5034Y1, but a 1.9-gallon bucket that fills more than three times a day at full pace. Plan on a hose from day one. | A current-test 50 with a built-in pump, a top-lift bucket and a 38°F floor, three degrees below most portables. Buy it for a cool basement with nowhere to gravity-drain, and confirm the warranty first; with a drain below the unit, the cheaper Cube does the same job. |

| Watch out for | Its Auto mode holds 45-55% by room temperature and won't take a setting; use Dry to choose a target. One year parts and labor with no sealed-system term; owner reports on older Frigidaire dehumidifiers repeat coil icing and failures inside three or four years. Frigidaire lists it as Wi-Fi enabled; ENERGY STAR's record says not connected-capable. | The black ADH50KP26 is also titled Lift-Up on Amazon, but its ENERGY STAR record and listed size match the taller ADH50K26; look for ALDH50KP26 in the listing details. The manual documents no gravity drain, so a failed pump leaves you emptying an 18-pint bucket about every 8.7 hours at the rated pace. Clean the pump's water filter when the Water light comes on (every 30 hours of pump run time); a clogged filter or kinked hose stops the unit with EB. Owner reports on older Hisense 50-pints include new units leaking out the bottom and refrigerant loss within one to three seasons. |
