Xiaomi has expanded its smart home portfolio with the launch of the Mijia Washing Machine Pro Ultra-Electrolytic Direct Drive Drum 10kg, a premium front-loading washing machine that combines advanced cleaning technology, intelligent automation, and smart home connectivity.
The new model is priced at CNY 2,699 (approximately US$375), with eligible government subsidies in China reducing the effective purchase price to around CNY 2,294.
Designed for modern households, the washing machine introduces Xiaomi’s proprietary Ultra-Electrolysis Technology, which aims to improve stain removal, fabric care, and hygiene while minimizing the need for chemical additives.
Ultra-Electrolysis Technology for Chemical-Free Cleaning
The standout feature of the new washing machine is Xiaomi’s Ultra-Electrolysis Technology.
Using a specially developed diamond-coated electrode system, the machine rapidly electrolyzes water during the wash cycle, reportedly increasing the concentration of active oxygen molecules by up to 15 times compared to conventional washing methods.
These active oxygen molecules penetrate deep into fabric fibers, helping to:
- Remove stubborn stains
- Eliminate bacteria
- Break down dirt naturally
- Reduce detergent residue
- Deliver chemical-free fabric care
According to Xiaomi, the process relies on natural oxidation and reduction reactions, allowing effective cleaning with fewer added chemicals.
Restores White Clothes and Reduces Color Transfer
Xiaomi claims the Mijia Washing Machine Pro can effectively remove 20 common household stains, including soy sauce, fruit juice, and other difficult-to-clean marks.
One of its most notable capabilities is restoring yellowed white garments to a brighter appearance in a single wash.
The machine also features four times greater color-transfer protection, helping prevent dyes from bleeding between garments. Xiaomi says this performance is comparable to using approximately 15 color-catching laundry sheets, allowing users to wash light- and dark-colored clothing together with greater confidence.
Advanced Hygiene and Sterilization
Beyond stain removal, Xiaomi has placed a strong emphasis on hygiene.
The washing machine features full water-path sterilization designed to maintain a cleaner washing environment while protecting clothing.
According to the company, it provides:
- 99.99% bacterial sterilization
- Dual sterilization through high-temperature steam and ultra-electrolysis cold-water technology
- 99.999% sterilization efficiency
- 99.999% virus removal rate
- 100% dust mite removal rate
While these figures are based on Xiaomi’s internal testing under specific laboratory conditions, they highlight the company’s focus on improving household hygiene for families with children, allergy sufferers, and pet owners.
Higher Cleaning Performance
The Mijia Washing Machine Pro is rated with a washing performance index of 1.3, exceeding China’s national efficiency standard of 1.03.
A higher cleaning index generally indicates more effective stain removal while maintaining fabric protection, making the appliance suitable for both everyday clothing and heavily soiled garments.
Direct-Drive Motor with Intelligent Detergent Dispensing
Powering the washing machine is a direct-drive (DD) inverter motor, designed to deliver quieter operation, lower vibration, and improved long-term reliability.
Xiaomi backs the motor with a 10-year warranty, reflecting confidence in its durability.
The machine also incorporates an intelligent dual-channel automatic detergent dispensing system, allowing users to fill detergent and fabric softener reservoirs once for approximately one month’s worth of washing.
Additional highlights include:
- Automatic detergent dosage based on laundry load
- Dispensing accuracy of approximately ±0.75ml
- Optional disinfectant dispensing mode via the Mi Home app
This system helps reduce detergent waste while ensuring consistent washing performance.
Smart Home Integration
Like many recent Xiaomi home appliances, the Mijia Washing Machine Pro integrates seamlessly with the company’s connected ecosystem.
Through the Mi Home app, users can:
- Start or stop wash cycles remotely
- Monitor washing progress in real time
- Select washing programs
- Adjust detergent settings
- Receive cycle completion notifications
The appliance also supports voice control through compatible Xiaomi smart speakers, allowing users to operate the machine using simple voice commands.
Multiple Washing Programs
The washing machine offers 30 dedicated washing and fabric-care programs, making it suitable for a wide variety of clothing types and household needs.
Additional convenience features include:
- 24-hour delayed start timer
- Mid-cycle laundry addition
- Specialized fabric care modes
- Intelligent washing optimization
These functions provide greater flexibility for busy households while helping extend the lifespan of garments.
Looking Ahead
Mijia Washing Machine Pro Ultra-Electrolytic Direct Drive Drum 10kg demonstrates Xiaomi’s continued push into the premium smart home appliance market. By combining innovative ultra-electrolysis cleaning technology, advanced sterilization, automatic detergent dispensing, and comprehensive smart home integration, the company aims to deliver a washing machine that offers greater convenience, improved hygiene, and more efficient fabric care.
Although the product is currently launching in China, its blend of intelligent features and chemical-free cleaning technology reflects broader trends in the global home appliance industry, where energy efficiency, smart connectivity, and health-focused innovations are becoming increasingly important to consumers.
