Microwave Oven

brrrrzzzzzzzzzz

Every Microwave oven you have ever seen, and it does not matter what brand it is, was made by one company: Midea.

Midea Group is a Chinese electrical appliance manufacturer, headquartered in China. As of 2018, the firm employs approximately 135,000 people in China and overseas.

It is interesting to note that He Xiangjian, the company's founder started the business in 1968 and the company manufactured bottle lids. Forbes lists him as having a 25.2 billion in real net worth.^[1]

He also looks like a really nice guy.

The Companies Involved

Listed in the quote below, you will find all of the different kinds of microwaves that Midea produces under different company names:

We found evidence that most countertop microwaves sold in the US are manufactured by just one company, Midea. We confirmed with Midea that it makes and sells Toshiba, Comfee, and Black+Decker ovens. We’re also confident that GE, Whirlpool, Sharp, Breville, Insignia, Magic Chef, Hamilton Beach, and others also sell microwaves that were originally built and probably designed in large part by Midea, though all parties that we contacted declined to comment^[2]
