Consumer Reports hands-on tested the Midea MAD35S1QWT (Cube 35-pint) and rates it excellent overall, with a ~37-pint tank, 22 hours to fill, and roughly $39/month to run. RTINGS also lab-tested this exact model but gates its measured verdict behind membership. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Scored excellent overall in Consumer Reports' hands-on test program; Large water tank (~37 pints) plus included drain hose and auto-restart.
Flagged: Estimated running cost is not trivial at about $39/month of electricity.
