Unboxing & First Look
Inside the compact box, you get:
• Milagrow Blackcat 25 Ultra robot (smaller footprint than many rivals)
• Compact docking station with integrated bagless dust collection
• Power cord, side brush(es) (extras included)
• Cleaning accessories & quick start guides (QR for the Smart Life app)
• Full-function remote control (a handy bonus you rarely see with robot vacuums)
Build quality is tidy. Underside access to the main brush is simple; you can detach it quickly to remove tangled hair. There’s a physical power switch and top-side sensors for navigation and base alignment. The mop pad attaches via Velcro-style backing, making removal and washing straightforward.
Navigation & Mapping
• Uses a laser system (LDS) to create accurate maps and follow efficient cleaning patterns.
• Obstacle detection helps it avoid table legs, chairs, and small clutter; moving lightweight chairs onto the table will help it reach under the dining area more effectively.
• When battery is low, it returns to the dock, charges, and resumes where it left off.
Cleaning Performance
Dry Vacuuming
• 12,000Pa suction copes well with daily dust, crumbs, and kitchen spills like coffee grounds.
• Side brush funnels debris toward the main brush; if the first pass scatters coarse particles, the robot’s patterned re-passes pick them up.
Wet Mopping
• Detach the pad, fill the water tank from the top port, and re-attach.
• Y-Mop mode cleans in a Y-shaped pattern for better coverage on sticky marks.
• Water level can be adjusted in the app (Cleaning Preferences).
• Expect to refill water every couple of days depending on area and usage.
Tip: Use water only unless the manufacturer explicitly approves solutions; detergents can clog pumps and void warranty.
Auto-Empty, Bagless Base (3-Litre)
This is the star feature. When the robot docks, you’ll hear a quick transfer sound as dust moves from the robot into the base. Unlike most stations that use disposable bags, Milagrows base is bagless:
• 3-litre bin inside the dock (up to ~70 days for typical homes).
• No bags to buy; just pull out the bin and empty it into your trash.
• Washable dust box with a metal mesh pre-filter and HEPA stage in the robot.
