While browsing through here I saw a question about a dehumidifer and that reminded me to ask which brand/type of dehumidifier do you guys find the best and quietest?
I purchased a Haier 45 Pint dehumidifier from Walmart about a month ago, and while it did an excellent job at removing the moisture, I had to take it back because it was SO darn noisy.
My chins are in the basement, in a room about 20' x 20', and right now the humidity is moderately high. Does anyone have any suggestions for a nice, quiet and reliable dehumidifier??
 
I use this for my winter humidity: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OKD828/ref=ox_ya_oh_product. My barn gets so humid in the winter, I had to have one that would go down 30 or 35 because my door knob kept freezing. It's not loud, but it's not noiseless either. When I walked into the barn, I would have to listen to make sure it was running. I never relaly thought about it, before, but noise wouldn't have been an issue anyway because it's in the barn.

The summer one I don't remember the name of, but it's an older one.
 
Thanks Peggy! I will look into that one.
Now I also found this one on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Soleus-CFM-40...distat/dp/B00009RAVO/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
It seems like its super quiet and does a good job but the only problem I'm seeing of this is that it seems to raise the temperture up a few degrees and sometimes up to 5!
Our basement is at 70 and having the temperture raised up to 5 degrees would be dangerous for my chinchillas.
