My Favorite Foam Soap Dispenser: Xiaomi Mijia

Hello everyone! ✨

I've been wanting this dispenser for ages, it was on my birthday wishlist for a while now. We already had a similar one, but it was battery-powered and the mesh part broke, which was the part that made the foam. We couldn't fix it ourselves.

So, I waited and finally got the new dispenser, and it's been living in our bathroom ever since. Honestly, this is one of those rare cases where my expectations were met, and sometimes even exceeded.

✍️ First Impressions and Design.

I'll start with the packaging. It's all very neat and minimalist, just like Xiaomi. The box is sleek and straightforward, with nothing extra. You can tell it's a high-quality product from the get-go.

The white matte finish, the smooth lines, and the lack of any flashy details make it perfect for a modern bathroom or kitchen.

HOW TO REFILL THE XIAOMI MIJIA AUTOMATIC FOAM SOAP DISPENSER?

This isn't my first rodeo with a dispenser like this, so I already knew how to refill it. I'll walk you through my process, but feel free to just buy replacement cartridges if you're not feeling adventurous - we're not made of money, after all.

Those things are pretty pricey compared to regular liquid soap, by the way. I saw a pack of three on Ozon for 1200 rubles.

So, we're not just twiddling our thumbs - we refill the cartridges ourselves. You'll need a clean dispenser, your favorite liquid soap, water, a 10ml syringe, and something to make a neat hole in the plastic.

Xiaomi Mijia Automatic Foam Soap Dispenser First, we need to get to the cartridge by removing the top plastic part. Then, you can ask your partner to make a small hole, or you can do it yourself like I did - just heat up an old awl on the gas stove and carefully melt the plastic.

Xiaomi Mijia Automatic Foam Soap Dispenser Next up, we need to get the proportions right - mix one part soap with three parts water. So, I measure out 80ml of soap and add 240ml of water. It's okay if it's a few ml off - it's not the end of the world. I measure the soap by pouring it into a bigger plastic cup and then using a 10ml syringe to measure out 8 times. The hole should be big enough for the syringe nozzle to fit in, making it way easier. After I've got the soap measured out, I add the water through the same hole using a faucet. I turned the water to the thinnest stream possible, and it flows in perfectly.

Xiaomi Mijia Automatic Foam Soap Dispenser I've got to say, I'm pretty proud of my DIY hack - it's a game-changer. To prevent the soap from spilling over, I took an old screw from some furniture and stuck it in the hole. Now, nothing leaks out. Xiaomi Mijia Automatic Foam Soap Dispenser After mixing everything together, I recommend giving the container a little shake to get the ingredients to blend faster. Also, before putting on the white part of the dispenser, make sure to wipe it dry. Xiaomi Mijia Automatic Foam Soap Dispenser And just like that, I've got a brand new refill, almost for free. After putting on the top part, you might need to restart it - just press the button until the light turns on. Enjoy, and thanks for reading!

✍️ MY EXPERIENCE AND THOUGHTS.

We use the dispenser every day, and it's become a part of our daily routine. The sensor works super fast and accurately - just hold out your hand, and in a second, you get a generous helping of fluffy, airy foam.

Xiaomi Mijia Automatic Foam Soap Dispenser I've gotta say, washing my hands with this thing is a total breeze, especially after being out on the streets. My hands get cleaned really well, and my skin doesn't get all dry and gross (of course, that depends on the soap itself, but the foam dispenser is definitely a winner). I love that I don't have to touch the dispenser or the soap with dirty hands - it's just more hygienic and pleasant, you know? One more plus is that it's super economical. It only dispenses the right amount of foam, so I don't waste any. One fill-up lasts me ages, even with heavy use.
