About hOmeLabs

hOmeLabs is a home-and-kitchen appliance brand based in New York, selling dehumidifiers, air purifiers, air conditioners, and a broader line of climate and small-appliance products online and through major retailers. The brand operates under hOme Technologies, LLC, part of Aterian, Inc., a Nasdaq-listed consumer products company whose portfolio also includes Mueller Living, PurSteam, and Squatty Potty. Products are manufactured in China, with US sales, customer support, and warranty service handled directly by hOme Technologies.

hOmeLabs' dehumidifier line has drawn attention beyond retailer listings — Consumer Reports has independently tested and profiled models from the range, including the HME020030N. In our own testing for DIYRated, the hOmeLabs 50-Pint WiFi Dehumidifier stood out for carrying more verified Amazon ratings than any other full-size compressor dehumidifier we evaluated, a track record that reflects consistent real-world performance rather than a marketing edge.

What earned hOmeLabs the recognition

  • hOmeLabs operates under hOme Technologies, LLC, part of Aterian, Inc., a Nasdaq-listed consumer products company, giving the brand backing and direct US-based sales, support, and warranty service rather than a single-product storefront.
  • The hOmeLabs 50-Pint WiFi Dehumidifier is one of our top picks for basement and whole-home use, carrying more verified Amazon ratings than any other full-size compressor dehumidifier in our roundup.
  • Consumer Reports has independently tested hOmeLabs dehumidifier models, a level of third-party scrutiny most budget appliance brands don't receive.
  • Built-in WiFi with Alexa and Google Home integration on the featured dehumidifier lets owners monitor humidity and tank status remotely, a smart-home feature that isn't universal at this price tier.
  • hOmeLabs sells across a broad catalog of home comfort and kitchen appliances, from dehumidifiers and air purifiers to air conditioners and microwaves, under one brand.
