Anyone try something like this in coach? I didn't know they made them this small. Several brands available with positive reviews.

I don't have first hand experience with them, but I have seen a few people say small dehumidifiers like that could not keep up with their needs. I'm sure that is totally dependent on your environment and comfort level though.
Reviews seem mostly positive on most brands. They all are for small areas, like our coaches. Daily showers and cooking can be an issue in our coaches. Might be useful to prevent condensation issues in colder weather outside when in coach.
How do you know that you have too much humidity in your coach? Do you have a humidity meter? If you do what is your comfort level? 60% works very well for a lot of people. It can be anywhere from 40 to 80 but at the ends it gets uncomfortable for most. Beyond that most folks won't like it much.
Or is it that you get ice and condensate in various places? That is no true indicator. You can get condensate in the desert, which is why a solar still can produce drinkable water on 100+ degree days. All you need is a surface that is below the dew point.

Most of these electronic indoor-outdoor thermometers also show humidity level, and since they aren't from HF, they may be pretty accurate. From my experience at home, forced hot air is pretty dry in winter. It's the spring and summer that has most of the issues. Condensation on non thermapane windows would be a good clue one would be useful.
Forced hot air is dry because the fire in the furnace is drawing outside air in, to replace that which goes up the chimney.
Those who have switched to those new outside vented furnaces notice condensation where they didn't before...
Find the least expensive dehumidifier that has a hose attachment and run it. Especially when the coach is in storage mode. Leave a book open on a counter for a few weeks, you'll see the wrinkles.
Happy coaching!
