Question 1

Sorry, manufacturer didn't answer this question clearly.  Does the unit shut itself off when full, or will it flood my room?

Accepted Answer

If you have "pump mode" on, it might flood your room. It did for my parents. Pump mode goes off on its own, so you must have it connected to a drain 24/7. On its own because it neither drains fully, nor properly detects the water level.

What happened to my parents was they connected the hoses, turned on pump mode, but it "didn't work". So they waited a few minutes then turned off pump mode so it wouldn't start the minute they walked away. When the bucket got full, they turned on pump mode, stood there for 15+ minutes, then put the hose back. It seemed like manual operation, and after waiting 20 minutes for it to pump out, they forgot to turn it off. Then, in the middle of the night sometime, the pump turned itself on to empty and flooded the floor.

Pump mode is when it thinks the bucket is full. Not when it's necessarily actually full, and pump mode WILL NOT EVER ENGAGE unless it thinks the bucket is completely full. So if your bucket fills in 8 hours and you need to manually move it to a location to turn on the pump before bed so that it doesn't turn off in the middle of the night, you CANNOT have the pump empty the bucket because it will only turn on when 100% full. So you could end up with it turning off in the middle of the night since you can't manually engage the pump.  If you choose to manually empty the bucket so that it will run through the night--not an option for my elderly parents, but I empty mine and we have the exact same unit--often the bucket will not reset the water level, so it will turn off when it's "full" when really it only has two inches of water in it.

Make sure you disable pump mode, since the sensor and software are poorly designed and implemented, and it will not engage the pump unless it is at level 4 full or thinks its level 4 full. It will never engage when you set the max fill level below that such as 1 or 2 or 3, will never engage manually when you turn on pump mode, you cannot even manually tell it "I emptied the bucket ahead of time, reset your counter since you use software to assume/count rather than a sensor (which only detects 100% full) which pairs with the software", and if you don't remember to turn off pump mode after you wheeled 60 pounds of water+machinery to a nearby sink and waited 20-40 minutes for it to pump...well,forgetting will leave you flooded.

Midea hasn't QA-tested their products for normal use. Unless we happened to get 2 units with faulty sensors, but I doubt that. I'm 99% sure that they programmed software to assume the fill level, and a sensor only exists if the bucket water level is at the very top, basically a failsafe for the junky software some idiot approved without a manual reset option. What a joke.
