Midea sys 3 Air Conditoner

Budget set: SGD$3000

Ideal(intro by fren) Model: Mitsubishi Starmex

Went to GainCity today after hearing from my fren that the pricing there is somehow quite reasonable. 

Stepped in, wow..many brands...first thing first...look at the cheapest...which is the Midea.

Have experienced Midea Air Con during my long stay in china long time ago. Good leh. 

quiet. don't do cleaning..after yrs still good. Price is $2289 for system 3 inverter with 4 NEA ticks.

Second cheapest is Daikin, $2389. But only 3 NEA ticks. was told that the model is 7 yrs ago. 

Then look for the ME Starmex, price is $2990. 4 NEA ticks, annual electricity cost is almost same as midea. 

Besides ME, there is the MHI. was wondering whats the diff so raised a few questions to the salesman:

1) whats the diff between ME and MHI?

2) where is it made?

3) how long is the warranty?

Ans:

1) Diff coy provide diff BTU

2) Thailand or asia 

3) 1 year and it is advisable for me to purchase the extended warranty (additional 4 yrs) at SGD$388 (if i rem correctly). It is also recommended to do an upgrade on the size of the insulation for the piping at SGD$180 to prevent any condensation formed in the trucking.

Spending so much for 1 yr warranty? No thanks, $2289 for 1 yr warranty seems logical to me.

Same, it is again advisable for me to do a top up for the warranty and insulation. Tempted to do so, but i think i can trust this brand. 

BTW, normally those who say this brand CMI also never use before. only hearsay hearsay nia.

$200 vouchers will b given for this purchase also, but have to buy and install before 15th Mar.

so quite a good bargain. almost like $2089 for a system 3 air con.

After back home, checked on the midea website, and realised that Midea Singapore will b giving 6 yrs warranty on the compressor, 2 years on parts, 1 yrs for installation. but the GC sales man did not say anything to me. but rather keep selling the extended warranty, and to contact through them if anything happen to the Air Con...hmm...fishy...

Installation date will be on 15 Mar. Will write a review for this Midea Air Con. Last but not least...this air con has a inbuilt vitamin c filter....
