Very helpful. I get nervous with gadgets but you made it simple and easy to use. My dehumidifier is now humming away. Thanks!
Now THIS is a good video for a review. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I appreciate this very much for explaining all the features.
I just bought one and your video is very impressive and well detailed.
We're all the way up in Massachusetts, but right at the Atlantic coast, so we can still get some Bizarro World humidity here. I'm 62 and work in a fast-paced warehouse so I need to get enough deep wave sleep to be able keep up with the younger workers.. Without a good dehumidifier my sleep would be so shallow that I would have to take a leave of absence from work until at least mid-September. Thanks for this detailed, easy-to-follow video
I'm in MA too, Medford. I have mine in the basement where my office is and an air purifier in the bedroom but wondering if I should put in my bedroom?
Thank you for explaining the features and how to use. The manual was not helpful to me.
Agree…..the manual is very unclear.
Ditto! Like nothing that even remotely resembles helpful
Yeah the manual doesn't explain what the different modes do!!!
I agree! Thank you so much!
YA
I was wondering about that flashing light, thanks for solving this problem for me
This was a great dehumidifier for the two years it worked. I stumbled upon your video while trying to troubleshoot a repair. I called the company for advice. The unit is 2 years old - one year out of limited warranty. They had me register the unit and then said there is nothing they can do. No one repairs these things anymore and it's a somewhat pricey item to be "disposable".
Yeah I hate when that happens. I actually had a dehumidifer recently break. It wasn't this one (it was another brand, a very expensive one). It still works but it doesn't turn off and I can't adjust it. I just plug it in and it runs until it fills. It sucks when they break because they are so expensive. They are useful though so I always buy them. I currently have two dehumidifiers. Hopefully they last a little longer. They are very useful!!!!
Same reason why I am here. After two years, the compressor stopped working. I suspect like others. It’s the capacitor. But the way they set up the streamlined cool looking cover I can’t figure out how to get it off. I’ve removed every screw that is visible but it’s still stuck on something.
Excellent video. Thank you for the detailed explanations.
This was very helpful! I just moved to JAPAN and its brutal in the summer! Thanks!
Great tutorial thank you. I finally know the ins and outs of this
Thank you. This was very helpful.
Wow, I was sitting, legs crossed next to my dehumidifier just like your thumbnail when I found this, lol
LOL
Amazing video, clear to follow ! definitely a must watch !
Very helpful, thank you !
Wow thank u bro. I bought one beauase my apartement has a lot of moisture which cause mold and chalk like powder on the wooden items. In a matter of 3 hours the water reach a quarter. Its an amazing product. 😊 everything u said is on point. This video is very helpful.
:)
If it fails they don’t back the product. I got the extra warranty and they will not respond to my emails
After a major moisture issue this summer that turned into a mold issue I’ll have to get a new couch mattresses as well I’m sure my landlord finally got this one drained in to my sink so they drilled a hole in the wall to the sink pipe now that’s leaking so lovely
Also I’m pretty sure the moisture is why my flat screen no longer works I’m beyond stresses out
Thanks, good review. Just ordered one for my basement.
Awesome video! We lost the instructions to ours so this was extremely helpful. 👍🏽
Glad it helped!
Thanks. Great review. Very detailed.
Great information. Thank gig
This was helpful. I just hooked up today. I put the tube in the back but now it won't come back out. I'll go hit the pump light. Very little water barely coming into the unit bucket. How hard can I pull that white cable back out and just count in that internal bucket? It took a while to actually find it's bucket. I had 4 inches of water in the cellar this summer and water to dry it out better.
Thank you!! Great video
Thanks for making review. I’m on the fence of which dehumidifier to buy. The Midea or Hisense brand. Nice features on Midea.
So I’m curious. Why does my unit blow out warm air on the side and then sometimes is blows out cold air like a fan. This happens both on comfort & continuous. If I go into the app and then set the fan on high & I put it to 85% or even 35% and the air gets cold. Anytime I change the % number, it blows out cold air. But after a few minutes it’ll go warm. Just curious if that’s normal.
Very helpful. Thanks!
Excellent review as opposed to reading tons of it. Appreciate.
I have two Midea dehumidifiers: a cube model on main level of the house and a 50 quart model similar to the one of this video. I especially like the cube model as the bucket is easy for me to empty with it on a 3 water level setting. However the unit in the basement has just started to freeze up on the coils and allow ice to build up on the air filter. So I have to carry it into the basement bath and allow the ice to thaw and then plug it back in. Seems like the auto defrost feature is not working. Compressor seems to be ok and it works well except for the ice build up. I empty the water by using the unit's pump feature and carry the water to my sump pump. Everything worked great for a year, then of course, the ice build up began after the unit was out of warrenty. The hose is impossible to disconnect from the unit pump. I might just turn off the pump button and allow water to empty into the bucket. I would say Midea units work great until they don't or until the warrenty runs out on certain models. Of course the Asian written manual is poorly written with really bad and small drawings. I still have about two months of use for the machine in the basement so I will try to make it work until then. Probably get a different style dehumidifier as I can not live without one in the humidity of Virginia. I do have a question: is it possible to run the unit and empty the bucket and leave the pump hose attached since I can't remove it anyway.
Very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome!
Not sure if I should be using the Comfort or Continuous setting?....Does the Comfort setting turn the machine off and on depending on where the humidity level is set and does the Continuous allow the unit to run with out stopping and starting? Why would I use one over the other(Comfort vs Continuous?).Thanks.
Love, I just moved into a basement and is super humid. I found there’s a midea wdp70ae6n model with a hose attached to it. I have never used one, it’s a bit different from the one you’re showing. Can you please help me and walk me through what to do to get it to remove the humidity? Also at what level should the humidity be, regularly?
Any idea how to open the side vent? 4 year old dropped a pen and color pencil through it.
Thank you!!
Very useful video and well explained thank you very much.
The manual didn't make sense.
awesome thanks for the video!!! exactly what i need because my ac is on its last leg!!! need to dehumidfy
Hey sir. I have the Midea 1500 standard 22 pint dehumidifier from amazon. I notice that when set on comfort only it will run for a bit and shut off suddenly for like 10 to 15 seconds then turn it back on again run for a bit and shut off again. But this does not happen when in normal or turbo mode. Would you know if this is normal behaviour or I have a faulty Midea dehumidifier? Please help. Thanks.
Hi I have a question. I like to be able to adjust my dehumidifier so it cycles on and off. But on comfort or continuous you cannot set the humidity level. So if you just turn it on but leave comfort and continuous off can you adjust your own humidity level.
Thanks for this video. Can you examine or show how to clean the filter?
That's what I need to know
So after two years of use, the compressor is not running on my 50 pint Medea with a pump. Just like the one you’re talking about. I would like to troubleshoot it, but I cannot figure out how to get the cover off. I’ve removed all visible screws and it’s still stuck somehow any ideas?
Mine started to ice up- is there a way to remove the cover to clean the inside?
My Dehumidifier works great but......I have it hooked up to a hose which is draining but shuts off with water bucket full. What is the point of the hose if I have to empty a bucket?? I had a Frigidaire that drained through a garden hose to the drain in my basement. The dehumidifier was up on a small crate and the hose attached to the water outlet and it just drained through the hose! This Midea I have is up on the crate also but I still have to empty the bucket even though the drain hose is connected that came with the unit. Is there something like a" float" that I should know about? I have misplaced my instructions!" Appreciate a reply! Thank you.
I was looking for an official video from Midea, but couldn't find it so I clicked on yours with low expectations lol. But this was helpful right away, super concise and no fluff. Thanks a lot. Do you think this will work well with a two story house? Or should I take it upstairs separately and run it?
Oh that's a tough question! Personally I have TWO dehumidifiers that I use regularly. I use one upstairs and one downstairs for drying my surf gear. They are expensive so it sucks to buy two, but I sucked it up and did it lol. I'm glad I did, I got so tired of carrying the huge dehumidifier down the stairs!
Hey man if the humidity in room is 20 and you set the machine as 70, what happens
According to Midea,the fan runs constantly.When using the Comfort setting,once the unit detects the set point for humidity,the compressor shuts off,but the fan still runs to circulate the 'new' air.I thought my unit was defective because it would neve shut off,not like my other dehumidifier,which would turn off all together once the set point for humidity is reached.Midea manual does not explain this at all.
If you want to only want to run the dehumidifier for 2hrs how do you set it.
After two years of operation, I'm getting ice forming on the back of the unit. Any fixes?
Do i need to let it settle after moving it from one room to another
Because the dealer told me to let it to settle for 8 hours so the compressor can build his fluid up
thanks very much sir
Does it turn off when the humidity level that you desire has been reached?
Have you been using it continuously? How has it held up? Thanks.
Mine is bs , im running on continuous mode with drain hose draining into bucket ,it keeps bringing up p2 mode ? Saying it is full when bucket is empty so it doesnt make sence and theu are hard to desl with the company difnt want to know about it
Does it matter if I purchased too large a dehumidifier for my basement? I’m afraid the room is getting too hot.
I don't understand how to have it continuously drain after spending 30 minutes on the phone with them. I also don't understand continuous mode. What is the humidity level when set to that mode?
I dont understand the pump is it the same is the hose??
Thanks!😀
Recently bought one. Wished someone had told me how much heat they create when running.
Thank you
Is there a difference in the "Comfort" setting, and just manually setting the machine to 50% humidity?
FR i wanna know too.
I can't tell if mine is working. I've had it for over 24 hrs, going on Continuous & turbo settings and the bucket is completely dry. I don't have the hose connected cause I'll just let the bucket fill then dump it. I live in the basement and its always been humid. And the humidity makes it way colder. We've always had a dehumidifier and it always collected water. Did I possibly get a damaged one?
That’s super weird it should definitely be filling with water. Something is definitely wrong I think. Maybe try returning it or exchanging it. Good luck man.
I’m having the same issue. And in Louisiana. Talk about miserableeeee
Why does mine blow warm air?
How to use the timer feature
Informative vid.
I have 2 of the MAD 50 units that are 2 yrs old placed in my basement. I use the hose discarge to a sump pump. Mine does not have the discharge pump... needs to gravity discharge. BOTH of the units initially drained using the hose. However, lately they BOTH fill the bucket as well as trickle out the discharge hose.
I find the bucket being frequently filled to be VERY inconvenient... every other day.... at which time the dehum. shuts down.
The discharge hose is clean and there is no visable obstruction in the port at the hose attachment.
I have not come across a troubleshooting guide that addressed this issue and there is no direct contact after the first year warranty period. Any one else have a similar issue and or solution?
Oh that’s really unfortunate. Maybe someone else knows. Good luck 🍀
The drain hose can get clogged with scum. Try disconnecting the hose and blow through it. If you can't blow through it fairly easily, you need to replace the hose.
@@lawrences2000 Thanks Lawrences2000 Took the drain hose off and hooked it up to the garden hose. Was a bit slimey inside but not plugged.
I recently found that the drain hose needs to be close to completely vertical in order for the unit to drain w/o backing up into the holding reservoir.
Thanks so much for your thorough explanation.
I am a visual learner and always look for videos to supplement the manuals that I receive.
You a great Teacher 😉😎 Boss Ninja yogi. Thank you brain pop knowledge drop. ❌⭕❌⭕🕺👍👌❤️🔥❤️🔥
I have this exact same model. The pump and auto-defrost quit working after about a year.
Mine too!
Sometimes my unit will shut off,but all lights are on and unit is powered up,just shuts off,is this normal?
Thank you. Have you reviewed the cube?
There is a sticker on the front of my dehumidifier that instructs me to remove the power cord buckle and "make sure the float switch is properly set." I can't find any instructions on how to set the float switch. Currently, the bucket is not collecting any water. Could it possibly not be working because I need to so something with this float switch. Thanks
I was wondering about this as well and am running into the same issue. Did you get it figured out?
@@maggiegagnon6865 I think it didn’t appear to working because the humidity level in the room wasn’t above 30. Everything is working fine now. However, the company never responded to my email.
You have to open the bucket, the corld buckle is taped to the right side
Is it smart and WiFi controlled with smart app?
Does it still function?
Where is the float switch? Mine isnt collecting water and i think it may be because i dont have the float switch set correctly...
So a year later is this thing still working since they're famous for quitting after warranty? How in the hell do you live at keeping your temperature at 78°F? My thermostat stays at 68°F year-round.
You didn't explain how to clean the filter. I can't find my directions and was hoping to find that out.
It just pulls of the back then you wash in water then let them dry then put it back on
I'm a bit confused. If I want the air in my basement to be drier , should I press the up or down button?
down
Humidity above 60 is considered not good
And 70-80 will risk you respiratory system , clothes , furniture and any leather products + mold accumulation
So you must set it up to %
This is considered very good
And not under 35 ( this will cause dry skin)
Please read the manual. If you attach a hose to the back it is meant to be drained into a floor drain not a bathtub or sink. The reason, it is a gravity feed and it will not pump the water out (this is what the other hose is for).
Or keep it elevated.
For gravity drain feature on models not containing the optional pump, hose may NOT be run to a bathtub if that means the hose has to run uphill. For the gravity drain feature, the hose must only go downhill, thus their suggestion of “floor drain”. With those with the pump feature like mine, that hose may be run uphill to a sink, tub, whatever
is it easy to remove the filter to clean? some reviews say its impossible
I read those reviews before mine arrived. If you look at this filter in the video it is not the same one that you see on most of those reviews. The one I seen showed the filter sliding in and out. This filter does not. It is actually super easy to remove. I would just make sure the one you buy has the same filter as the one in this video.
I wish you would have figured out and explained the timer function. I have mine continuously draining and am frequently away from the property for a couple of weeks at a time. I'd like the unit to turn off periodically and not have the fan go 24/7. The timer instructions in the manual are very unclear.
Sadly I had this one, and after a year it decided not to work anymore. It sounds like it's running, but after running for hours not a drop in the bucket and the humidity shows that it's super high 😞. Very disappointed that it didn't last.
Awww I am so sorry to hear that! I just read a comment from someone else about another dehumidifer(another brand), and the same thing happened to theirs. I had one "break" also, but it was another brand. Instead it just runs automatically and never shuts off, so I can still use it but I just have to plug it in and unplug it. Anyways sucks to hear about yours. These are expensive so when they break it hurts to buy another. They are also so useful so at the same time very nice to have. Good luck:)
How did you get the continuous draining? I hooked up a hose to drain and the tank filled up anyways, and I’m not sure what more I can do
Same thing here.
If your using the little hose thats for the pump so make sure pump is on this is good if you need to drain water far or pumping up. The bigger hose runs of gravity so it's got to drain lower than the dehumidifier
My on and off button stopped working all the sudden any recommended fixes would be helpful? Thanks.
This happened to me with another brand. I plug it in and it just turns on, really weird. Does yours turn on ?
@@TheInternetSorcerer update: I thought it might be a bad on and off button all the other buttons worked so, I decided to open it up and have a look at the control button. I had never took one apart before so, I was hoping I wouldn't break anything. I finally got it open and checked the switch which had connectivity so, I put it back together like about 3 times. I forgot it had a timer you could cut it on so, I could still use it. One day the on and off button started working again and still works today but who knows if it will stop again.
This unit is very loud if you are thinking of putting it close to a tv , living room. Used a lot of kWh in one month specially if you leave it on comfort mode or continuous mode.
And it has these options
Mine turns on and off, I am not sure why
Look up Midea 22 pint dehumidifier at walmart
Will the Demidifier dry damp wall out ?
Yip
I just unboxed the unit, turned it on and realized the fan never shuts off even when reaching the desired humidity setting. While the compressor turns off, having the fan run continuously unless I shut the unit off is not cost efficient, is un-necessarily noisy and a deal breaker for me. Will be looking for another unit with auto-fan shut-off.
Wanted to know about the timer😔
Hi, are you supposed to put water in the dehumidifier
The whole idea is to REMOVE water from the air, not put it back in!
Do I need a dehumidifier for each room in the house?
It helps for sure. The problem is they are expensive. I currently have 2 dehumidifiers.
I have that model and it has ice on the back. Do you know why?
You set it to 70 but it didn't shut down while your room humidity is 60!!!
Now mine came with a smart feature so I control with my phone 🤷♀️
PSA: Also works great as a Heater.
My Midea has a Bluetooth /WiFi feature
I just bought mine last night. I set the app up today!
Hold the Filter button for 3 seconds to WiFi pair with phone app. Surprised he didn't mention that. A feature I'll never use!
math sorcerer
I did my homework before I purchase the Midea dehumidifier. I looked into 38 other companies and surprisingly they were awful…. buyer beware…
You never explained how to clean the filter - duh??? change the filter when the light comes on but no instructions
after 250 hrs, wash
I waited 10 minutes to see how to clean the filter and you didn't do it, thanks anyway
It is too noisy. It wakes me up every time it turns on at night. Returning it
I will say it’s not quiet like reviews and Google says. I read quieter than a fridge. That’s a negative.
Thank you
