Checking the Midea MFC100-U1407BS/C14E-US against the registry? With an electric water heater and an electric dryer, it uses 267 kWh a year and 2,360 gallons of water at DOE's test use. Its IMEF, the cubic feet of laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, dryer included, is 2.76, equal to the class median of 2.76.
Energy and water per year
267 kWh a year with an electric water heater and an electric dryer
Computed by this site from the registry's IMEF and drum capacity at DOE's test use of 295 cycles a year. IMEF counts the washer, heating its water electrically, and the electric dryer's work on what the spin leaves wet — so this is the total for that kind of home. How it is calculated
The machine and its hot water alone, dryer not included: 65 kWh a year, as ENERGY STAR files it.
Not published: A home with a gas water heater, a gas dryer or line drying
DOE's rating assumes electric water heating and an electric dryer and files no split between the machine, the water heating and the drying.
Such a home uses less electricity than the total above; how much less, no registry says for this model.
2,360 gallons of water a year
Computed from the registry's IWF and drum capacity at the same 295 cycles a year.
Not published: What the water costs
water and sewer rates are set by thousands of local utilities and no free national source publishes them.
The gallons above are the figure to multiply by your own water and sewer rate.
This model is rated above the federal minimum IMEF for its class.

The 267 kWh figure covers the washer, its electrically heated water and an electric dryer. This site computed it, not the registry. It uses the registry's IMEF of 2.76 and a capacity, the drum's volume in cubic feet, of 2.5, at DOE's test use. The source is DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-10-25. ENERGY STAR files a separate machine-only figure of 65 kWh, which covers the machine and its electrically heated water with the dryer left out. The difference between the two figures is the dryer's share, and this page does not state it as a separate number. The calculation is described in how the yearly energy and water figures are calculated. The model is also sold as MLH25N7BWW.

The 2,360 gallons figure is also computed by this site, not the registry. It uses the registry's IWF, the gallons of water used per cycle for each cubic foot of drum, of 3.2. The capacity of 2.5 and DOE's test use complete the calculation. A household that washes a different number of loads will use a different total, and that usage is not available here. The cost of this water is not stated: no free national source publishes local water and sewer rates, so no amount is estimated. The installed-cost range for this model appears in its own block with its source and date, and this text does not restate it.
Among the 360 models registered as front-loading, standard size, the median IMEF is 2.76. This washer's IMEF of 2.76 is equal to that median, so the registry shows no difference from the class on this measure. The comparison covers IMEF only; this page gives no class comparison for water use. Running cost is not stated in the text. It depends on your own utility electricity tariff, so the page computes it from your ZIP, and no amount is estimated here. Other models are listed on all clothes washer pages.
