46 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other vacuum sealers, built-in and countertop dishwashers, food slicers, meat and grain grinders, spice mills and kitchen prep appliances we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Midea MDC22P1AWW occupies the countertop dishwasher space with a clean two-tone black and white glass finish that stands out from the all-black or all-white options common in the category. Full-panel controls give access to multiple wash cycles without crowding the interface.
At 44.1 lb and dimensions of 19.69 x 21.63 x 17.25 inches, it is one of the lighter options in this roundup and manageable to move on your own. The 52 dB rating is standard for the class, and the 120V plug keeps installation simple.
With only 46 reviews and a 3.9-star average, the data set is thin. Midea is a well-regarded appliance manufacturer with strong parent company backing, but buyers looking for the most evidence before committing may want to consider the COMFEE or AIRMSEN options that carry far more reviews.
Pros
- Distinctive two-tone black and white glass finish suits modern kitchens
- Full-panel controls offer clear cycle selection
- 44.1 lb is lighter than most countertop competitors at similar capacity
- Standard 120V connection, no special wiring
- Compact 19.69 x 21.63 x 17.25 inch footprint fits most counters
Cons
- Only 46 reviews means limited buyer feedback to draw on
- 3.9-star average leaves room for improvement versus top-rated alternatives
- $430 price is harder to justify over the well-reviewed COMFEE at $279
Performance notes
The MDC22P1AWW runs at 52 dB and fits 6 place settings, consistent with other countertop models in this segment. The glass finish panel on the front is a design differentiator. At 120V and 44.1 lb, setup and daily use are straightforward. The full-panel control layout separates it from simpler push-button or minimal-touch competitors.
What buyers say
The 46-review sample is small but trends positive. Buyers mention clean results and appreciation for the design. A few note the price feels slightly high given the competition. No major durability issues appear in the early review pool, which is a positive early signal for the model.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Midea MDC22P1AWW the same as the COMFEE countertop dishwasher?
Midea is the parent company of COMFEE, and the units share similar dimensions and capacity, but they are separate models with different control layouts and finishes.
Does the glass finish scratch easily?
The front panel uses a glossy glass finish. Standard care, meaning avoiding abrasive cleaners, keeps it looking clean. Buyers have not flagged scratching as a common issue in early reviews.
