The Hillington Car Dehumidifier Bags have racked up a 4.2 out of 5 star rating from over 10,000 reviews on Amazon. One person said: “These have proved to be a brilliant buy – I keep mine one in the boot and one in the door side pocket – I used them all last winter and was surprised at how effective they were. You can easily see when they need refreshing and a quick microwave or dry on radiator (which I found actually better) and they are ready to be put back in the car. I highly recommend it and bought another pair for a friend’s car.”
Another said in a longer review: “Impressed is an understatement! This Reusable Dehumidifier Bag is an excellent solution for tackling moisture and humidity in small spaces like cars or storage areas. I’ve been very impressed with its performance so far. It’s super easy to use, and I haven’t even needed to recharge it in the microwave yet, which shows just how effective it is. It’s designed as best as it can be really to limit how tall it is. This means it doesn’t obscure your driving vision.”
A third person commented: “Great to keep my window screen from being wet. They work perfectly. Highly recommended.”
This person removed a star and wrote: “Ideal size for a car, use one and have the other spare ready to use. The rubber mat is really good to ensure the dehumidifier does not roll around the dashboard. The only thing that would make this a 5 star item would be a resealable bag to ensure sure once dry it can be stored until its required.”
Another said: “Sorry but they were too large for my car, had to return them.”
