A dark-silver smart tower that looks like it costs three times more. App scheduling, auto temperature mode and a display that dims itself at night.

A 10L/day dehumidifier with a HEPA and carbon filter stack, so it scrubs dust and odours while it dries the room.

Devola's 12L/day compressor unit with a 39 dB quiet mode and laundry setting — the flat-and-semi favourite for condensation season.

The third-generation evaCHILL cools the air around you using just 7.5W — less than a light bulb. Plug into any USB port and breathe easier.

CASO’s compact IceChef brings German build quality to the countertop. Around 500g of fresh ice per cycle keeps drinks frosty from the first G&T to the last.

Our best-selling smart tower. Schedule cooling from your phone, whisper-quiet night mode, and a 5-litre tank that runs all evening on one fill.
