With freezing temperatures and people avoiding using their heating to try and fight rising energy bills, many homes are seeing an increase in condensation, which can lead to damp and black mould.
Drying washing indoors on airers can make the problem worse but with the weather so cold there aren't really any more practical options.
While electric dehumidifiers can help remove moisture from the air in damp rooms, prices can range from £50 - for this Russell Hobbs version - to £649.99 for Dyson's top-of-the range model.
