Quick summary

  • Two fridges 546 l: Cross Door and French Door
  • Ice maker without a water connection, first ice in 55 minutes
  • Depth 60 cm, noise level 34 dB, energy class E
  • Not in the EU yet; in China from 5 299 yuan (about 708 €)

Xiaomi has added two new large refrigerators to its global website under the Pro label, and both have something missing from its European lineup so far: an automatic ice maker that does not need a water connection. Mijia Refrigerator Pro Multi-Door 546L comes in two versions—Cross Door with four doors, and French Door with two upper doors and two drawers at the bottom. The specs are almost identical; they mainly differ in how you access the freezer.

Both refrigerators are listed in the European energy label registry EPREL under codes ending with EU. Xiaomi’s Dutch branch brings them to market, so they’re not “Chinese goods” that would reach us only through import. The listing was added in August 2026 and, according to the entry, they may be sold in all EU countries, but Xiaomi has not announced the price or the start of sales yet.

Cross Door or French Door: the difference is the freezer

The upper cooling section is the same on both models—it opens with two doors and has 351 liters. The difference is down below, in the freezer with 195 liters. Cross Door has it behind two separate doors, and inside it’s split into six zones, so meat, vegetables, and prepared foods each get their own place. Pull-out drawers are on wheels, and there’s also a separate tray for fast freezing, where food freezes flat—making it easy to store afterwards.

Instead of doors, the French Door has two wide pull-out drawers across the full width of the fridge. Xiaomi claims you can fit a whole tomahawk steak and ribs in there without cutting. The drawers also don’t wobble even under heavy load. There’s also a large flat-freezing tray here. If you often freeze large pieces of meat or pizza, the French Door will suit you better, while the Cross Door is more practical for a family that wants to keep the freezer organized in smaller compartments.

External dimensions are identical for both: 89.2 cm wide, 60 cm deep, and 191.2 cm tall. The 60 cm depth is the same as in a typical kitchen cabinet setup, so the fridge doesn’t stick out like a classic American side-by-side. Xiaomi also provides built-in dimensions: the niche must be at least 90 cm wide, 192 cm tall, and 60 cm deep; above the fridge leave at least 8 mm, and on the sides 4 mm.

Ice without plumbing and with scheduling from your phone

The biggest new feature is the automatic ice maker. Unlike American fridges with a door dispenser, you don’t need to pull a water line to it, because it takes water from its own tank inside the cooling compartment, which you just refill. The finished cubes drop into a large bin in the freezer. According to a TÜV Rheinland measurement, the ice maker produces the first ice in 55 minutes and about 1.1 kg per day. The first cycle after turning it on may take longer.

The tank, water lines, the mold, and the bin are made from an antibacterial material which, in Intertek’s lab according to ISO 22196 standards, reduced the number of bacteria of Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli by more than 99 %. The unit can also clean itself—the cycle takes three minutes. In the Xiaomi Home app, you can also schedule when the ice should be produced, so you can have it ready, for example, for the evening when you’re expecting guests.

Two separate cooling circuits to prevent odors

Both the fridge and the freezer have their own evaporator and their own fan, so air from the freezer doesn’t mix with the air in the fridge section. That way, ice won’t absorb odors from the adjacent cheese shelf, and the temperature in the fridge fluctuates less. Both compartments have No Frost. According to EPREL, the freezer is four-star: it freezes 14 kg of food in 24 hours and also has a quick-freeze mode.

On top of that, Xiaomi adds Ion Hygiene⁺ ionic air cleaning, which this time works in both the fridge and the freezer. According to a microbiological lab test in China’s Guangdong, it reduces the amount of bacteria as well as trimethylamine, a substance that causes the typical fishy smell. Down in the fridge compartment, there are two separate boxes for fruit and vegetables, where the membrane helps maintain moisture. Since they’re separate, fruit doesn’t speed up the ripening of vegetables in the neighboring box.

Glass instead of metal and lighting that won’t blind you

The door is covered by a glass panel in Graphite Grey, which—according to Xiaomi—leaves no fingerprints or greasy smudges and is easy to wipe clean. Inside, there’s lighting along the full height that, once you open the door, turns on gradually over three seconds so it won’t dazzle you at night. The freezer has its own light too. You can move the door shelves and the glass shelves depending on what you’re storing right now.

According to the label, the fridge is loudness 34 dB, which places it in class B on a scale from A to D and makes it one of the quieter models of its size. It works in a room temperature range from 10 to 43 °C (climate classes SN to T), so it can handle even an unheated storage room or a hot kitchen in summer.

Control via Xiaomi Home, Alexa, and Google

The fridge connects to the Xiaomi Home app, where you set the temperature, switch modes, and also download new software. You can also control it by voice via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant—for example, you can tell it to set the fridge to 6 °C or turn on Super Cool. This mode is useful after a big shopping haul when you want to cool a full fridge quickly. These assistants don’t support Slovak, so you’ll need to speak the commands in English.

For the inverter compressor, Xiaomi provides a 10-year warranty. For the rest of the fridge, the standard legal warranty applies—24 months according to the EPREL register.

Weak point: energy class E

Both fridges have class E on the label and power consumption of 318 kWh per year. For large multi-door fridges with a volume over 500 liters, class E is common. More efficient models in class C or D do exist, but they usually cost more. So far in Europe, Xiaomi has registered only a smaller fridge in class D with a volume of 353 liters; all its large models are E.

Compared to the older Mijia Refrigerator Cross Door 502L that we introduced in October, the new Pro has 44 liters more and, according to EPREL, is 3 dB quieter (34 vs 37 dB). At the same time, it uses only 13 kWh more per year. It now also has an ice maker and glass doors. However, it’s 4 cm wider, and Xiaomi doesn’t mention the variable “i Fresh” zone, which you can switch on the 502L between −1 and 5 °C. If you’re looking for a more American-style fridge with an even bigger capacity, Xiaomi also has a side-by-side model 621L.

Price and availability in Europe

You can’t buy either of these fridges in Europe yet. The global page has no value, and there’s no Buy button, and in European online stores—including the Slovak, Czech, or German ones—product pages aren’t available yet. We couldn’t find them in comparison sites like Idealo, Geizhals, Ceneo, or Heureka either, and Xiaomi has not announced an official European price yet.

It should be helped by China, where Xiaomi in March 2026 introduced a pair of Mijia Refrigerator Pro models with two cooling circuits and a capacity of 560 liters. Dimensions: 892 × 600 × 1912 mm. The ice maker and ionic cleaning are also identical; the difference in capacity is likely due to a different measurement methodology. According to the website IT Home, the cross-door version costs 5 299 yuan (approximately €708) and includes a government subsidy of 4 504 yuan (approximately €602). The French Door version had a pre-sale price of 6 443 yuan (approximately €861), and after a coupon it’s 5 799 yuan (approximately €775).

For the Chinese models, Xiaomi also boasts deep freezing at −30 °C, which the global site only shows in one picture and doesn’t mention in the parameters. That these are the same refrigerators isn’t directly evident from the official pages, but the dimensions and features match. The European price will be higher because VAT and shipping will be added. The older Cross Door 502L as well as the side-by-side 621L had, in Europe, a recommended price of €849 according to Notebookcheck. The new Pro is bigger and better equipped, so we wouldn’t be surprised if its price sits above that threshold. Until Xiaomi announces the price, though, this is just our estimate.
