Xiaomi has released the MIJIA direct-drive front-loading washing machine 12kg in China. The washing machine has an ultra-thin body with a thickness of 540mm. The MIJIA direct-drive washing machine is 52mm thinner than a traditional 12kg drum washing machine. It has an ultra-wide color touch screen while the body has an ice white color. The Xiaomi MIJIA direct-drive washing machine has a front-loading architecture and has a cleaning ratio of 1.1.

The outer barrel has a diameter of 530mm while the inner barrel is based on an upgraded laser welding technology. The design of the inner barrel is such that it is formed in one piece and omits rivets. The washing machine has a direct-drive motor and four shock absorbers for efficient operation. It is also equipped with smart chips and algorithms for its seamless operation. It supports a 90º swing of its inner cylinder reducing the need for wire drawing and deformation.

The MIJIA direct-drive washing machine uses the magnetic levitation driving principle of the direct-drive motor. This allows the inner cylinder to rotate smoothly for a quiet operation. The washing machine supports steam sterilization, high-temperature cylinder cleaning, nano-antibacterial door seals, and other functions. The MIJIA App can be used to remotely control the washing machine, and customize the washing time, rinse time, temperature, and speed. The gadget supports OTA upgrades.

The Xiaomi MIJIA direct-drive washing machine 12kg is now available from retail platforms in China including JD.com. The price of the washing machine is 1,699 yuan (~$233). There is no global availability and pricing information yet for the MIJIA direct-drive washing machine 12kg.
