Choosing an air conditioner, we strive for the optimal ratio of price and quality. Next, we will analyze: which brands correspond to the declared prices, and for whom the prices of split-system air conditioners are somewhat overstated.
Top quality air conditioners: Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu
Among the air conditioners of this group, Mitsubishi Electric products can be put in first place.
Not inferior to the other two brands in quality, Mitsubishi products are somewhat cheaper. We conclude: Daikin and Fujitsu slightly increase the price of split-system air conditioners, taking advantage of their excellent reputation.
All three firms offer truly the highest quality. The percentage of marriage among their products is 0.1%. And their models contain almost all conceivable innovations. Very quiet operation, functionality at -25 degrees outside the window, luxurious design and a self-diagnosis system are just a few of the advantages of premium air conditioners.
They are produced in Japanese and Thai plants, Daikin has facilities in China.
Good quality air conditioners: Panasonic, Toshiba, Hitachi, MitsubishiHeavy, Sharp, Sanyo.
Very harmonious value for money. Business class models are more affordable, but very good. Quietly work, reliable, made of quality materials. Models belonging to the premium class from these manufacturers are no worse than those presented in the first section. This is consistently even quality and excellent functionality.
Most manufacturing plants are located in China, Thailand and Malaysia.
Choosing from the representatives of this group, you can safely look for a cheaper model. She will by no means disappoint (unless of course it is not a fake).
Air conditioners of average quality
Designed for consumers with moderate requirements. They work a little noisier, the percentage of malfunctions is much higher. However, these manufacturers are pleased with the ratio of quality and price of split air conditioners. A huge selection of models, the broadest functionality attracts users.
Air conditioners Gree and Midea going to China (Hong Kong). Some models show excellent quality at a very reasonable price. Often equipped with compressors of "expensive" brands (Daikin, Toshiba, Sagno). There are many models on inverter control, which also pleases.
LG launches the Art Cool line, which is not inferior in quality to the most expensive premium air conditioners. But among the rest of the products there is a lot of marriage, a large number of air conditioners with unproven origin, "gray". Therefore, the price of air conditioners is split from LG overpriced.
The same can be said about Samsung air conditioners. The same overpriced air conditioners of multi split systems, a lot of “gray” goods and defects. Having paid the same amount, you can find a model from Midea or Gree is much cheaper, but more functional.
Mitsushito - very good conditioners at an affordable price. They are assembled at the factory facilities of Gree.
Electra - although the quality of the products is decent, the company has some interesting developments, the price of multi-split air conditioners is seriously tense.
