Midea 30L Inverter Quattro review: inverter, grill, and Wi-Fi

The Midea 30L Inverter Quattro is our Best inverter pick: a 30L cavity with 900W inverter power, a 1000W grill, Wi-Fi control, and a 5-year magnetron warranty.

What does the inverter actually do?

This is the feature worth paying for, and it’s widely misunderstood. A normal microwave has one power setting: full. To simulate 50%, it switches full power on and off in bursts. The result is food with cooked edges and a cold middle, which is why defrosting in a cheap microwave produces meat that’s partly steamed at the corners.

An inverter holds a genuine lower power continuously. Frozen chicken thaws evenly, a milk-based sauce reheats without splitting, and fish comes out flaky instead of rubbery at the edges. If you defrost or reheat delicate food regularly, this is the single biggest upgrade available in a microwave.

The 900W output across a 30L cavity suits a family of four or more: one reheat instead of two, and a casserole dish actually fits. The 288mm turntable spins a wider plate than the 255mm units. Eleven power levels and a 99.99-minute timer give you room to use the inverter properly.

What else does it do?

The 1000W grill browns and crisps: baked macaroni, melted cheese, reheated pizza. It is not an oven and won’t bake, but for topping-off jobs it’s genuinely useful and it’s the reason this beats a solo microwave at the same size.

The Wi-Fi and Midea app let you start, stop, and check a cycle from your phone. Honest assessment: most people will set it up once and then use the front panel forever. It’s a nice extra, not a buying reason. The soft-touch membrane and green LED display do the actual work.

Is the Midea 30L Quattro sulit?

Around ₱7,800 as of August 26, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. Across the 5-year magnetron warranty, that works out to about ₱4.30 a day, and the warranty gives you a real number to use rather than a guessed lifespan.

That warranty is the quiet argument for this machine. The magnetron is the part that eventually fails on every microwave, and 5 years of cover on it plus 2 years parts and labor is more than most brands offer here. Paired with an inverter and a grill, the price starts looking reasonable rather than steep.

The one thing to check before ordering: a 30L cabinet is wide and deep. Measure your counter, including the depth, because this is the most common regret with a microwave this size.

Who the Midea 30L Quattro suits

Buy this if you cook for four or more, defrost frozen meat regularly, and want browning without buying a separate oven. It’s the right choice for a family kitchen where the microwave does more than reheat rice. If you only warm leftovers and your counter is tight, a 20L solo unit does that job for far less.

If the Midea 30L Quattro is not right

If you want inverter power with a stronger grill and a premium brand, the LG NeoChef MH6565DIS is our Best Premium pick: 1000W microwave, 950W quartz grill, but a smaller 25L cavity. If size is what you’re after rather than the inverter, the Sharp R-394P-ST is our Best large capacity pick at 34L with a humidity sensor.
