Who is the manufacturer of the Midea washing machine?

The economic crisis has adjusted the situation on the household appliances market. Well-known European brands have risen in price by 1.5-2 times and have been squeezed out by more budget-friendly and affordable goods from Asian factories. Thus, a manufacturer of appliances under the Midea brand is gaining popularity, offering washing machines with an optimal price-quality ratio. But what is hidden behind the low cost and whether you can trust the new company - we’ll figure it out in the article.

Where did the brand come from?

The birthplace of the Midea brand is the Chinese province of Guangdong, where 51 years ago in the city of Shunde a modest workshop was founded under this name. Also in 1968, the first fan was assembled, called “Mei De”, which translates as “beautiful”. Over time, the company has grown into a global diversified corporation with 135 thousand employees.

The Midea washing machine manufacturer specializes in climate control, large and small household appliances:

• air conditioners;
• kitchen electrical appliances;
• electrical appliances;
• refrigeration and washing machines;
• compressors;
• information Technology.

Not only is the range offered impressive, but also the scale of the enterprise. Midea is considered one of the largest Chinese suppliers of household appliances. The company is a leader in five product categories within the country and in seven leading export directions. Also, this brand is the most actively developing modern manufacturer among competitors around the world.

Midea equipment is exported to more than 200 countries, including Russia. Plants and factories are located not only in China, but in 21 other countries - India, Vietnam, Belarus, Egypt and some others.

An innovative examination system is provided that allows us to make high-quality and durable products.

What kind of washing machines does it make?

Midea's main focus is on kitchen appliances. Among the assortment offered by the company, it is easy to find any necessary product from small electronics to refrigeration and freezing equipment. Thus, microwave ovens and electric meat grinders, stoves and hobs, vacuum cleaners and fans, blenders and food processors are produced and sold - everything that can be useful to a housewife in everyday life. The manufacturer also paid attention to washing machines.

Just 3-5 years ago, washing machines from Midea were not popular - consumers were confused by: an unknown brand, low quality and questionable repairability. But the situation changed, as the company’s quality control department was able to instantly read the mood of customers and produce an improved assortment that meets the needs of the audience. Now the equipment of this brand compares favorably with its competitors in a number of indicators.

1. Wide range of budget options.
2. Economical machines due to low energy consumption class A+++.
3. Possibility to purchase a model with a capacity of 7-8 kg at a price of up to $200.
4. An enlarged hatch and door with an opening angle of 180 degrees, which makes loading and unloading laundry easier.
5. The presence of a display that allows you to control the washing process.
6. High spin quality at speeds up to 1400 rpm with a noise level of no more than 78 dB.

The versatility of the Midea washing machine also attracts buyers. Each model has a large number of standard and special modes, developed by professionals for high-quality and fast washing. There are no expensive and useless options, which reduces the cost of machines and makes them accessible to consumers.

User opinions

When choosing a new washing machine, we were guided by low cost due to a limited budget. The old LG automatic machine served without any complaints for 9 years, but due to a long move, I had to leave the unit in its previous place and settle in from scratch.

Let me clarify right away: the choice was limited, since in the region where we moved there were not many online stores. But I found several options, the cheapest of which was the Midea WMF610 machine. The brand turned out to be familiar - I used the same microwave for several years without any complaints. The reviews were not intimidating either, mostly good. So we ordered right away.

To be honest, I have no regrets: the washing machine has been working properly for almost a year.

There is only one drawback - the lack of an electronic display with a displayed wash timer. The old LG had a display, so I personally don’t feel comfortable doing without it.

But otherwise, no complaints. The quality of washing is at the highest level, even old stains from preschool children are removed. It can withstand the machine and the intensity of washing, since the machine is used often and for a long time. It seems to me that the low price for such endurance is already a huge plus.

If the budget allowed me to go wild, I would definitely choose the option with a display, as it greatly simplifies the washing process. For those who don't care about the scoreboard, I recommend the Midea WMF610. In addition to the above, I’ll add that the machine copes well with dirt in express mode, is silent and stable.The latter is especially important, since the floor under my machine gun is not strong, but the equipment does not jump or vibrate.

We chose the narrow Midea when we moved to a new place of residence. We were looking for a washing machine in the price category up to 18 thousand and, while reviewing the offers of well-known brands, came across a previously unfamiliar company. What attracted me was that very “expensive” performance characteristics were offered at a low cost. For example, the machine stood out with the following advantages compared to the proposed alternatives:

• capacity up to 7 kg;
• a large number of modes, including a quick 15-minute program to give your laundry freshness;
• low power consumption;
• stylish design;
• the presence of a display is a key point for me, since I wanted to control the washing time; other machines at this price do not provide this option;
• excellent washing, socks do not get stuck;
• detergents are completely rinsed out of the tray;
• low price.

But it wasn't without its drawbacks. The machine is noticeably noisy. The drum occasionally smells unpleasant. Old and stubborn stains can be removed only with high-temperature washing, which is not always convenient, and additional washing is not available on all programs.

I have been using the machine for 2 months, and it is likely that it is too early to judge its reliability. But so far there are no complaints, I’m happy with the purchase, I’ve read mostly positive reviews. Time will tell, but the store provides a 2-year warranty. Country of assembly: China.

I noticed that when buying household appliances that received an “excellent” rating from buyers, you become the owner of something unknown. When choosing a new washing machine, I again believed the reviews.Most happy owners of MIDEA WMF610 only grieved that the blue advertising sticker could not be removed even with gasoline. Apparently, no one noticed the terrible washing, unpleasant smell, high noise and a lot of other “advantages”.

At the same time, I read rave reviews of Lg machines, which also did not correspond to my real experience. In general, I only used 2 washing units. From one - the German Bosch - there are pleasant memories with white collars and socks, stability and proper work for 20 years. It broke only through our fault, we just filled it up. The second, Russian Lg, was far from ideal and died after living out exactly the warranty period. Another Lg in a neighboring city had a similar fate.

As I understand it, the advantage of this company is the guarantee of “death” within a specified period, the desire to overcome the laziness of housewives (it is necessary to wash difficult stains by hand) and to take revenge on neighbors for loud noises.

Repairing the latest Lg would have been so expensive that we decided to buy a new, but inexpensive one. We chose the budget Indesit, but the consultant dissuaded us from the Lipetsk assembly and recommended MIDEA WMF610. According to the seller, there was not a single negative review about it. And I'm here to fix this situation. I'll start with the advantages.

1. Simple controls.
2. Convenient loading capacity of 6 kg.
3. Water consumption is about 48 liters.
4. Energy consumption A+.
5. Glass does not heat up at high temperatures.
6. Sustainability.
7. Low signal.
8. And most importantly, the sticker was easily removed from the case.

Now I’ll move on to the shortcomings, of which there are many. So, the promised efficiency does not work, since you have to wash it several times for optimal condition. When the cycle is completed, the machine does not turn off, but simply flashes the indicators.The hatch latch is flimsy, and the noise level is so high that it can be heard even through the walls. The persistent smell of phenol is also unpleasant. I conclude that laudatory reviews cannot be trusted. It is worth looking for trusted brands only through friends.
