What to know about Midea MAD50PS1QWT
Why it stands out
Why we like it
The nesting tank holds about 34 pints, so emptying is rare if you skip the pump. ENERGY STAR lists the MAD50PS1QWT-A variant as certified at 49.67 pints a day. It is sold directly by Amazon at a mid-range price, far below what the non-pump sibling currently costs there. Reviewed named the non-pump MAD50S1QWT, built on the same platform, its best overall dehumidifier; that finding applies to the sibling, but the pump version shares its core design.
What to know
Score breakdown
Measured water removal and how fast a unit pulls down humidity in real basement or chamber tests (Bob Vila, Reviewed, Tom's Guide, RTINGS, Consumer Reports). Rated pints/day for the space size counts too.
Coverage for large spaces, low-temperature operation and auto-defrost, continuous drain or built-in pump, auto-restart after power loss, and casters/handles for stairs.
Bucket size and how easy it is to remove and carry, hose included or not, controls and app, and how accurate the humidistat is.
Measured or reported noise at normal and high fan speeds. This matters for finished basements and rooms above.
ENERGY STAR v6 certification, IEF (L/kWh), and power draw measured in tests (e.g., Reviewed's power measurements).
Street price relative to capacity, features and tested performance, plus warranty length.
