Aquaria Slim 14 P - Our independent review

Why choose Olimpia Splendid Aquaria Slim 14 P over many other dehumidifiers? This type of appliance is increasingly popular in our homes and, choosing the best model for your environment is not so simple. Adopting a dehumidifier is very useful for those with particularly damp houses and who have to struggle against stains on walls and mold on a daily basis. In fact, these machines manage to collect the water present in the air in order to keep the environment less humid and therefore healthier. A rather simple operation which, however, can benefit from variations, even substantial, from model to model. In fact, many appliance manufacturers offer product lines in this sector. Among them, there is Olimpia Splendid, a brand which in this specific market niche is one of the best known and appreciated. In this article we will analyze a model of the Aquaria Slim line, which can boast several successful devices. So what are the strengths and weaknesses of this product?

Olimpia Splendid Aquaria Slim 14 P, has many similarities in design compared to another model in the line, namely Slim 10 P. The essential and sober shapes, the white color and a realization that focuses on practicality are some of the main features to aesthetic level. Compared to its "brothers", however, it is decidedly heavier, by virtue of its 9.5 kilos of weight (the dimensions, 27.6 x 18.5 x 50 centimeters, have remained unchanged). Despite the weight, the presence of wheels and the ergonomic handle allow the dehumidifier to be transported in various areas of the house with ease. Overall, the appliance is easily managed through the practical LED backlit display with touch controls.

Efficiency

Olimpia Splendid Aquaria Slim 14 P represents a step forward compared to Slim 10 P, offering a dehumidification capacity of 14 liters per day. The removable tank is semi-transparent (so you can see how full it is with a simple glance). The adjustable electronic humidistat allows you to manage the humidity of the treated air with great precision. The maximum absorbed power is 262 W. More generally, this dehumidifier is able to work in environments of 65 cubic meters or less. The timer with shutdown that can be set with a range from 1 hour to 24, the possibility of continuously draining the condensate (through the tube supplied) and the tank filling signal, are other very interesting features. Even from the purely ecological point of view, this product proves to be up to the situation. Preloaded with natural refrigerant gas R290, this model respects the environment and guarantees minimal impact on global warming. Finally, the Auto-restart function allows the device to resume working safely even after a blackout.

Silent

This model of dehumidifier, in practice, is a rather silent device. The 42 decibels constitute a rather low noise level for this sector.

Versatility

Olimpia Splendid Aquaria Slim 14 P is a device that goes far beyond simply collecting water from the air. Thanks to the Pure system dust filter, in fact, it is possible to obtain a better quality of the environment in which the dehumidifier is working.

By virtue of what has been seen so far, the Olimpia Splendid product reveals a decidedly advantageous price-quality ratio for the buyer. It is, in fact, a model capable of offering considerable efficiency and, at the same time, it can be purchased for a rather limited amount.

Olimpia Splendid Aquaria Slim 14 P has been available for purchase on the main digital stores since mid 2019. In this moment of time, it has proved to be one of the best-selling and most appreciated models in the sector, collecting more than flattering reviews. In fact, well over half of the reviews are absolutely positive. As with any other appliance (and not only), there is no shortage of notes and criticisms. The problems recorded are, in most cases, similar to that recorded with other models of the Aquaria Slim series. Although the dehumidifier is basically silent, the plastic with which it is covered tends to vibrate and can cause a noise much louder than 42 decibels. The same plastic, is considered by several users to be quite fragile and can sometimes cause breakages after a few months (or even weeks).

Olimpia Splendid Aquaria Slim 14 P presents itself to the public as an efficient dehumidifier and with an interesting price-quality ratio to say the least. Equipped with some interesting functions such as the external drain and dust filters, it is a product to be taken into consideration for those who want to keep a room of medium-large size dry. Due to the low price, however, it must be said that some plastic components that cover the dehumidifier are rather fragile and, in the medium to long term, can cause noise problems.
