Xiaomi has launched the Mijia Mini Twin-Tub Washer-Dryer 5kg in China. It has a standard retail price of 3,499 yuan ($520) and now up for pre-order on JD.com. The appliance is built to handle a practical household task: washing different types of clothes at the same time without mixing them together.
Mijia Mini Washer-Dryer Specifications
Instead of a standard single drum, the machine splits its 5kg washing capacity across two independent 2.5kg tubs. For drying, each drum holds up to 1.5kg, giving the unit a total drying capacity of 3kg. This setup means you can wash baby clothes in one drum and adult clothes in the other, or keep delicates away from heavier fabrics. To make sure the loads stay separated, the machine uses independent water and drying channels for each tub, which prevents water from one drum crossing into the other.
Inside, the washer uses a direct-drive motor that reaches a maximum spin speed of 1,200rpm. The drums are 255mm in diameter. For detergent, the machine has two separate 150ml auto-dosing dispensers. It calculates how much soap is needed for a specific load to cut down on residue. Xiaomi claims a full dispenser can last for around a month under typical use, while the self-cleaning system helps prevent blockages over time.
The machine includes 34 wash programs for specific stains like coffee, mud, and makeup. There is a 40-minute quick wash-and-dry cycle for small items, and a 40°C low-temperature drying mode for silk that uses sensors to stop the cycle when the fabric is dry.
If you leave clothes in the machine overnight, it turns on a ventilation system to circulate fresh air and limit odors. It also has a 95°C high-temperature drum-cleaning mode and claims a 99.99% removal rate for bacteria and viruses.
Like other Mijia devices, it connects to the Mi Home app and HyperOS system. It supports voice controls and receives over-the-air software updates. The unit measures 598 x 574 x 478mm, which allows it to fit into standard 600mm-deep cabinets. It weighs 41kg and can sit on the floor, on a counter, or stacked on top of a standard front-loading washing machine.
