What are benefits of a hoppen in Minecraft?

1. Hopper can be used to move item from one container to another.
2. Minecraft hopper can move items Left, Right and Down.
3. Hoppers can place and take items from minecrafts with chest, regular and trapped chests,brewing stands, furnaces and dispensers.
4. You can also join hoppers with item containers. Just place the hopper above the container and right-click on the container while holding the shift key.
5. If the hopper is connected with item container then the hopper will suck in any item which you will put above the hopper. The sucked item will then be stored in the connected container.
6. You can also quickly remove all the items in a container. Just place the hopper below any container to remove all the items from it.
7. The cool thing about the ‘item moving properties’ of hopper is that we can automate furnaces using these properties. For example, A hopper attached to the side of a furnace will fill the fuel slot of furnace, A hopper attached above the furnace will fill the item to smelt and a hopper below will retrieve the output. Hence hopper sucks in the item, it will all happen automatically.
8. You can also use multiple hoppers to fill a container at the same time.
9. There is also an option to put a redstone signal to the hopper which will lock and prevent the items from entering it.
10. If you have a comparator connected to a hopper, it will output a redstone signal if items are passing through it or items are stored inside it.
11. The more items in the hopper, the stronger redstone signal will be. 23~ items roughly equals 1 redstone block.
12. We can use the comparator block and simple redstone circuitry to automate a minecraft with chest arriving and leaving when it has completed loading or unloading.
