Except that that article is only about Instant Pot, and this one is (mostly) about microwaves.
I for instance had no idea that a company called Midea existed, much less that it's now a near-monopoly supplier of shitty OEM microwaves to the world. Here's hoping my indestructible Toshiba keeps on ticking, since looks like Midea swallowed them too in 2016.

- solardev 3y agoInteresting, I have a Midea white labeled window air conditioner from Costco and that thing is SUPERB. Extremely quiet, cold, smart, all around just a fantastic device. I wonder why their microwaves are so bad
- unixhero 3y agoCostco is not messing around when it comes to quality.
- clausecker 3y agoLast time I checked it was a duopoly now. One company is Midea, the other is Galanz. However, some companies (like Panasonic) still make their own high-end microwaves.
- fomine3 3y agoHere in Japan, four major electrics brands (two are now Taiwanese/Chinese owned) still actively develop their original microwave oven combo. https://kakaku.com/kaden/microwave-oven/ranking_2115/ https://kakaku.com/kaden/microwave-oven/ranking_2115/
