What we like about Midea MFV3EW100BA10

  • Steam technology is built in.
  • Energy use is 46 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • The 72 dB spin keeps noise down during the night.
  • A Night/Silent option lets it run in quiet hours.
  • A 10 kg drum takes a large load in one go.
  • Pause and add lets you slip in a forgotten item.

What we don't like about Midea MFV3EW100BA10

  • Each wash uses 52 L of water.
  • The ECO cycle takes 239 min, almost four hours.
  • At 64 kg it is heavy to move.
  • Only one programme finishes in under an hour.

Verdict

Night-time washing is the main appeal of the Midea MFV3EW100BA10, a 10 kg machine with steam and a Night/Silent option. The spin runs at 72 dB, which is easy to live with in a flat or a home office. Energy use is 46 kWh per 100 cycles, and the A class and inverter motor back that up. The trade-off is water: 52 L goes into every wash. The ECO cycle runs for 239 min, so it is for days with time to spare. A 15 min quick wash and a 24 h delay start let you fit it around the day. Wool and anti-allergy cycles cover delicate and sensitive loads. It suits a family that washes at night and wants a quiet machine with a big drum for everyday loads.
