A single-room Cube certified at 20.16 pints, lighter at 33.07 lb. It uses about 18% more electricity per pint than the 35 and 50, so two of these are a worse way to dry a basement than one Cube 50.
The Midea 22's on-paper twin at 22.27 pints and IEF 1.70, on the market since 2025 with little owner history.

Watch out for
Check the built-in humidity reading against a separate hygrometer in week one; a stuck-near-30% or ~20-points-low reading on a new unit is a known return-window fault. The original Cube generation (MAD20C1ZWS and siblings) isn't in the current ENERGY STAR data; confirm the listing says MAD20S1QWT.
We haven't reviewed it; operating range and drain details aren't in our records.
