The Mijia air purifier jointly created with Xiaomi has quickly become a phenomenon in the industry with its high appearance, cost performance, and ultimate experience. By the end of 2022, 17 million air purifiers had been sold worldwide, with a domestic market share of 40%.

Mi home appliance heating series products, from small heaters to European-style fast-heating stoves, from foldable baseboards to the first flame humidification electric heating launched last year, constantly pursue breakthroughs in thermal technology, and seek the best solution for comfortable heating. Within 2 hours of the good start of this year's Double 11, the cumulative sales of all channels exceeded 30,000 units.

This opportunity to further cooperate with Xiaomi is Xiaomi's affirmation and recognition of Zhimi's insistence on making touching household appliances for many years.
