How this dehumidifier scores for different use cases
70-pint capacity and built-in pump with auto-defrost make this a strong basement pick. Continuous drainage and 1000 sq ft coverage handle most basements well.
70-pint commercial-grade capacity with metal construction and dual drainage. The 1000 sq ft coverage and 5-year warranty support light commercial use, but larger spaces need more.
70 pints per day is strong, but 1000 sq ft coverage limits whole-house use. No Wi-Fi or smart controls means you cannot monitor it remotely.
Compact dimensions at 15.35x11.2x11.4 inches help in tight spaces, but 39.7 lbs with no wheels makes repositioning difficult. Overpowered for small spaces.
No sleep mode, no timer, no noise level data, and no remote control included. This unit is designed for utility spaces, not quiet bedrooms.
No Wi-Fi, no app control, no voice assistant support. The listing mentions remote controller compatibility but does not include one.
Our Verdict
The ARGENDON GLGR pulls 70 pints per day from your air. That puts it in the top tier for raw moisture removal. You get serious drying power in a surprisingly small package.
Its built-in pump lifts water up to 19.6 feet. You can drain it out a window or up to a sink. The gravity drain hose gives you a second option.
The compact body measures just 15.35 x 11.2 x 11.4 inches. It fits in crawl spaces where bigger units cannot go. Auto-defrost lets it run down to 33.8°F.
You lose out on smart features entirely. There is no Wi-Fi, no app, and no included remote. You must walk to the unit to change settings.
No wheels is a real drawback at 39.7 pounds. Moving it between rooms takes effort. The carry handle helps, but wheels would help more.
At $372.88, you pay about $5.33 per pint of daily capacity. That falls in the mid-range for commercial-grade units. The 5-year warranty adds peace of mind.
This dehumidifier works best when you install it once and leave it. A crawl space or basement with a nearby drain is the ideal spot. Set the humidity level and let it run.
What We Like
- Removes up to 70 pints of moisture per day for heavy-duty drying
- Built-in pump pushes water up to 19.6 feet for flexible drainage
- Compact 15.35x11.2x11.4-inch size fits inside crawl spaces easily
- Auto-defrost kicks in at 33.8°F so it works in cold basements

What Could Be Better
- No wheels make it hard to move at nearly 40 pounds
- No Wi-Fi, app control, or smart home features
- No sleep mode or timer for use in living spaces
- No remote control included despite mentioning compatibility
- 1000 sq ft coverage is small for a 70-pint unit
