Description
The Danby DDR040BJ2WDB is packed with features like Smart Mode and upgraded programmable timer. It also earned Energy Star's Most Efficient (2023) rating for money-saving features.

Note: This model is DOE rated for 40 pints at 65 degrees F.
Multiple Modes
Smart Dehumidify Mode
Take the work out of removing moisture by using Smart Mode. It automatically sets the ideal humidity level and fan speed based on your room’s ambient temperature and humidity level - automatically adjusting as needed. The Smart Dehumidify function is perfect for worry-free and complete comfort.
Automatic Mode
If you don't want to use the Smart Mode, simply set your desired indoor humidity level between 35% - 80% relative humidity. This Danby dehumidifier will work to maintain it without any extra work from you.
Energy Star Most Efficient Rated
An extension of the Energy Star program, the Most Efficient rating recognizes products that deliver cutting edge energy efficiency and the latest technological innovation. The Danby DDR040BJ2WDB 40-pint dehumidifier carries this rating (2022).
Additional Features
- Upgraded Timer: Allows you to set your unit to turn on or off up to 24 hours in advance.
- Humidity Display: Indicates your room’s current ambient humidity.
- Full Bucket Indicator: When the water collection tank is full, an indicator light will illuminate and the compressor and fan will turn off.
- Multiple Fan Speeds: For quick dehumidifying, the fan speed can be adjusted from low to high.
- Automatic Restart: If a power outage occurs the unit will resume operations in its previous settings.
- Washable Air Filter: Its reusable washable air filter will need to be periodically cleaned and an indicator light will let you know when it’s time.
- Caster Wheels: Four wheels allow for easy transport from room to room as needed.
- Automatic Defrost: Should the ambient temperature drop below 41 degrees F, the defrost indicator light will come and the unit will stop dehumidifying until frost has melted.
- Compact Design: Place this dehumidifier just about anywhere because of its compact design: 16.14 x 11.81 x 24.5 inches (W x D x H).
- Precise Humidity Control: You can simply set your desired indoor humidity level between 35% - 80% relative humidity. This Danby dehumidifier will work to maintain it.
Drainage Options
- Manually drain the unit when the bucket is full. An indicator light notifies you when it's time to change the bucket.
- Add a garden hose (not included) to the direct drain spout on the back of the dehumidifier. This allows for continuous gravity draining.
- Add an external condensate pump, which allows for the most hassle-free operation possible. The pump moves collected moisture up and out of the unit to another location.
Note on Pint Capacity: This dehumidifier was rated to remove 40 pints of moisture under the new Department of Energy standards of 65 degrees F and 60% humidity. Dehumidifiers were previously tested at 80 degrees F. New 50-pint units are equivalent to the old 60-pint units. Learn more about the updated pint capacities here.

- JJERRYVerified BuyerReviewingDanby DDR040BJ2WDB 40-Pint Energy Star DehumidifierI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars2 years agoI would definitely purchase this sme unit again.
Unit is in my basement/rec room. It works great, except when it gets to the set point, it continues to run. It does not shut off. But, it removes about 2 gallon of water from my living area each day, more on rainy days.
- BbarbaraVerified BuyerReviewingDanby DDR040BJ2WDB 40-Pint Energy Star DehumidifierRated 3 out of 5 stars1 year agoGood dehumidifier when it works correctly
This is used in my cellar along with another danby dehumidifier. I have uses danby for years with good luck until now. This was a replacement for my old danby dehumidifier which lasted 7 years. This one is not sensing the humidity level correctly and has very minimal water collection.
- JJarrettVerified BuyerReviewingDanby DDR040BJ2WDB 40-Pint Energy Star DehumidifierI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars4 years agoVery Nice Dehumidifier
I use this product in the basement of a new house to ensure that the concrete dries properly and so far it has done a great job. The only thing I would improve would be to have an outlet connection from the collection bin so I could pipe it directly to a drain.
- GGregoryVerified BuyerReviewingDanby DDR040BJ2WDB 40-Pint Energy Star DehumidifierI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoGreat Product
Purchased this dehumidifier for my son and daughter-in-law. They are renting a older home and the basement is quite damp. After several days of using the dehumidifier, the humidity is at a comfortable level
