Xiaomi’s smart home brand Mijia has unveiled the Mijia Smart Dishwasher Pro Built-in 18-Set exclusively in China. Priced at 6,999 yuan (around $1,025), this high-capacity dishwasher is designed for integrated kitchen setups and comes packed with advanced cleaning technology and smart controls.
The dishwasher handles up to 18 place settings, washing as many as 130 items in one cycle using a three-tier basket system tailored to various dish types with what Mijia calls a ”Chinese” layout. This configuration maximizes loading efficiency for local kitchenware.
Inside, a trio of spray arms combined with a five-stage vortex washing system targets hard-to-reach spots. A BLDC motor provides water pressure up to 52,000 pascals, significantly enhancing cleaning performance compared to typical consumer dishwashers.
The dishwasher includes a 450 ml built-in detergent reservoir that lasts about three weeks per fill, reducing the hassle of frequent refills. A unique feature projects cycle information onto the floor, so users can check the wash status without opening the control panel.
Drying and sterilization rely on high heat-up to 135°C-and air circulation, paired with a dual-channel disinfection system. After finishing the cycle, the door automatically opens slightly to speed up drying, a convenience rarely seen at this price point.
For faster cleaning needs, there’s a ”wash + dry” mode completing cycles in 59 minutes. The dishwasher offers over 20 programs (16 standard plus 4 additional) tailored to different cleaning scenarios, covering everything from delicate glassware to heavily soiled pots.
