About Midea Mini Split

Has anyone heard about Midea Mini Split Air Conditioner before?

Midea is a large consumer brand for all sorts of household appliances, etc in China. (Need a rice cooker or blender? Midea sells those. How about dishwasher or clothes washer? Midea sells those too.) Midea USA lists those types of products as well, not just refrigeration equipment such as mini-splits.

I think (but don't know for sure) Midea mini-splits are manufactured under contract by Gree, the largest manufacturer of air conditioning and heat pump equipment in China. The modulation ranges/turn-down ratios aren't nearly as good as some of the better Korean & Japanese mini-splits, and IIRC not as good as the better Gree-branded Chinese mini-splits.

Thanks for your answer. If it is true what you say about: Midea mini-splits are manufactured under contract by Gree, it is contradictory, I do not like the Gree brand but Midea yes.

I'll start with saying I did some research on Midea and it was tough to locate anything about them. My contractor recommended Midea and he explained to me the benefits of Midea over some competitive brands like Trane and Goodman. I've had this installed a month now and we are impressed. It's ultra quiet and can't even tell it's running. Our new Midea cooled the house down fast as anything. I'm sold for good. What I was told is that the new inverter systems will only use the amount of btu that it needs to cool down the house versus going full blast. Basically I think it's a variable speed condenser and with the variable speed blower it's been saving us a ton. Would recommend this brand to my friends and family.
