How old is my MIDEA stove?

1. Find the rating label: Open the oven door or pull out the storage drawer and look on the frame. On some models it is on the back or under the cooktop.
2. Take a photo of the whole label, or note the model and serial numbers.
3. Check it on Appliance Age. It is free, and no account is needed.

Open the oven door or pull out the storage drawer and look on the frame. On some models it is on the back or under the cooktop.

Keep the model, serial and any separate production code or printed date together. Not every serial number contains a publicly decodable date.

Use the format that belongs to this product family. A printed production date, a supported serial code or manufacturer confirmation can establish the age. Repeating year codes may leave more than one possible year; a model-series introduction date helps narrow the range but does not date your individual unit.

Ranges & Ovens typically last 13 to 15 years. Use, water quality and maintenance matter more than the brand. A gas range that clicks without lighting, or an oven that takes much longer to heat, usually needs an igniter or element, not a new range.

4 MIDEA models are currently ENERGY STAR certified. The certified models went on the market between 2025 and 2026. An older MIDEA stove may use more energy than today's certified models.

Questions

How do I find out how old my MIDEA stove is?

Find the rating label (Open the oven door or pull out the storage drawer and look on the frame. On some models it is on the back or under the cooktop), then enter the serial number or a photo of the label on Appliance Age. It checks supported serial date codes or a printed date for you, free; some formats need more information.

Where is the serial number on a MIDEA stove?

Open the oven door or pull out the storage drawer and look on the frame. On some models it is on the back or under the cooktop.

Can I tell how old my MIDEA stove is by the model number?

The model number tells you which model it is, not when your unit was made. Look for a manufacture date or a supported date code in the serial number, printed next to the model number on the same label.

Can I decode a MIDEA serial number myself?

Some MIDEA product families have serial date codes, while others need a printed date or manufacturer confirmation. Repeated year codes can produce multiple candidate years; the model and original documents help resolve them.

How long does a MIDEA stove last?

Ranges & Ovens typically last 13 to 15 years with normal use and maintenance.

Where can I get MIDEA stove parts?

From an appliance parts retailer. Have the model number from the rating label ready so the parts fit.
