3. Robomow RS630 Battery Powered Robotic Lawn Mower

Robomow RS630 Battery Powered Robotic Lawn MowerDo you want to save yourself from the hassle of moving your mower indoor and out again and again? If you are nodding in ‘Yes’, Robomow RS630 can be an option for you. As claimed to have been manufactured with UV plastic, it can withstand the gust of heavy wind, snow, rain and burning sun.

Being the product of novel innovators in the world of lawn mowing technologies, Robomow, RS630 took the industry by storm when it was launched about a decade ago. It is packed with some impressive features which are missing in many other mowers at the same price range.

For instance, the rain sensor located on its menu automatically detects rainy weather and the unit goes back to its charging base. This will surely help to prolong your mower’s life, because no matter how good the waterproof system of your bot is, rain and moisture disrupts its smooth functioning and ultimately shorten the life span.

Moreover, this mower is claimed to go uphill by 20 degrees. And much to your surprise, it is wise enough to turn to the plain surface when the slope is beyond 20 degree. Many reviewers reported to have tested this feature and told that the mower itself comes back from a steep higher than 20 degree and starts operating on the side paths. However, this could also be problematic for those living on more inclined places.

Another mentionable feature in this mower is its ECO mode. By setting the bot to this mode, the unit will use only the minimum energy needed to run the mower.  Great gesture by the manufacturers to save the environment! Like the other mowers in the market, RS 630 too is operated remotely with the help of a mobile application. It also heavily focuses on safety.

If you have pets or children at home, you should certainly go for it. As the moment it gets in touch with any pet or a human body, it halts its operation there and then.

The best about this mower is its dual steel blades and the edging mode which is named as ‘cut beyond the wheel’ by its manufacturers. By setting your mower to this mode, you can have your lawn trimmed to impeccable perfection and enjoy the side way envious glances of your neighbors.

Pros
  • Mows your lawn unattended
  • Charges fast
  • Works quietly
  • Gives fine finish to the edges
Cons
  • Can be expensive for a few people
  • Asks to set zone wire manually
  • Installation can be time consuming

4. Husqvarna AUTOMOWER 310, Robotic Lawn Mower

Husqvarna AUTOMOWER 310, Robotic Lawn MowerIt is another efficient mowing bot by Husqvana, especially crafted for small or mid-sized lawns. And this is the quality which makes it a widely used machine, especially for those house owners who have smaller yards.

In order to trim your small, may be haphazardly cut, yard, this mower is particularly automated to sense narrow alleys. Therefore, the moment it comes in contact with winding or narrow paths, it starts threading its path through and performs its job meticulously and uniformly.

However,the fact that it is designed for smaller lawns, did not stop its manufacturer from equipping it with all the high-quality features such as GPS tracking of the machine, Bluetooth technology and in-built safety measures.

Quite like other robotic mowers, all you have to do is to enter the PIN and you will see it whirring to life, performing its job as a humble servant, while you sitting back to utilize your precious time in some other task.

Besides, its ability to hold the sloppy paths of up to 40 percent make it the best-fit for those living on a bit inclined place. Like most of the robotic mowers, Husqvarna 310 also performs its operations silently and doesn’t become annoying for you or your neighbors.

This feature makes it easy for you to set it to work during wee hours even. Also, the LED light installed at its façade helps you inspect its working at night.

Pros
  • Easy to install
  • Senses uneven patches and narrow areas
  • Travels trickiest acres to with an equal ease
Cons
  • May appears to be overly priced to a few

5. Robomow RS612 Battery Powered Robotic Lawn Mower

Robomow RS612 Battery Powered Robotic Lawn Mower Small Yard, 22 inch Cutting Width, GreenLaunched in mid 2014, RS612 is the quietest mower of its kind. It won’t be an exaggeration if I add here that it allows you to enjoy a nap or read a book while it performs its job of chopping your lawn uniformly, detailing the edges.

Robomow, the famed mower manufacturers, combined competitive features in this masterpiece. After all, it was to be thrown in an already saturated market. And the mower hit the targeted ends with its premium quality material and the speed of functioning.

Trust me, it’s the quickest mower by far in the market which gives you a neatly maneuvered lawn while you are at work.

With incredibly heavy-duty blades, RS 612 can trim the thickest of grass growing wildly in your lawn in no time. And don’t fear if you have uneven patches going up to 35 % of height even, as this mower is sturdy enough to mulch your steepiest of the slopes.

Apart from the general safety feature of putting a stop to its operations while colliding with any obstacle such as human or pet, this mower has an added function of child lock. Which is efficient enough to keep even the most curious children at bay.

Due to these novel features along with the others such as functioning with mobile application, having an auto-theft installed in and controlling edges finely, this mower comes with a hefty price tag which may make you think twice before you decide for it. Nevertheless, this price tag is justifiable too in a number of ways. So, if you trade quality and your ease for money, this mower is a must-have for your yard.

What piqued my curiosity to buy this mower for my lawn is its unique feature with which you can program it for giving different cuts to your multiple lawns or may be the parts of same lawns. It is interesting for those who want to experiment with their yards.

Pros
  • Comes with acute safety measures
  • Charges fast
  • Shears hard and thickest grass
  • Can be programmed to give different perimeters different cuts
Cons

6. Worx WR150 Landroid Power Share Robotic Lawn Mower

Worx WR150 Landroid L 20V Power Share Robotic Lawn MowerWith a smart suite of software which is automatized to update itself, WR150 can easily become the first choice of those who prefer peace of mind.Its manufacturer WOREX, hailing from China, earned a name in garden equipment and this mower is company’s flagship product.

The onboard software which makes this mower stand from its competitors, enables you to set up a geo fence and AIA (Advanced Intelligent Algorithm) which helps navigate the hindrances coming to its way quite skillfully. This feature helps this mower a great deal in threading its path from narrow outlets.

You would certainly be relieved to know that the features like off-set blades for close trimming, rain sensor, built in safety and security are being offered by Landroid L20V in quite a reasonable budget. Furthermore, you don’t need to bother much about its maintenance as it updates its software itself.

The only thing you need to check with it, is setting up the boundary and that too not manually, just by using GPS feature in the application. Occasional examination of underside to clear clippings and change of blades if you have too many sticks fallen from trees in your lawn.

The cutting deck of Landroid has the ability to cut as low as 1.6 and as high as 3.9 and can comfortably be set to your requirement depending upon weather conditions. This range is higher than any other either automatic or conventional lawn mowers.

However, the lower range is not so low. For this reason, here you can rightly question that 1.6 inches lower is rather too high as many other lawn mowers offer as low as 0.8 inches from the ground level.

This lapse in its design has really taken this model to the backseat, especially for those who love to have their lawns pruned to utmost perfection.

However, an amazing feature of this mower is its ability to clip the blades of grass and tree sticks coming to its way to remarkably tiny clippings which do not need to be raked out of the lawn. These clippings rather decompose themselves in your lawn to become a stunning feeding source of nitrogen for your lawn. This natural fertilizer ensures healthy growth of your lawn.

Pros
  • Sophisticate software
  • Rain sensor
  • Built in security and safety feature
  • Off-set blades for uniform, close trimming
Cons
  • Not weatherproof
  • Runs only half an acre on one charge
  • The closest it cuts is just to 1.6 inches from ground

By versatility. I mean the customizable setting of this mower, which allows the homeowners to manicure their lawn according to their aesthetics.

Put simply, if you like experimenting with designs like stripes, zigzag or so, Gardena 4069 Robotic Lawnmower is your piece of cake.

Other than this interesting feature, there are many pros about this mower which altogether make it an option worth your consideration. For instance, it is completely waterproof and can perform its job well even when rain is pouring down.

Moreover, it turns automatically to its charging pad when its battery is drained out. And once it is charged to the brim, it comes back to complete the task and can mow 45 meter square in one hour after a single charge.

As for security measures, this mower not only has an anti-theft protection system but also an in-built lift and tilt sensor. Therefore, you don’t need to fear for its being lost while mowing your farthest of terrains.

The bad news for a few out there is that it cannot be remotely controlled through a mobile app as all the rest of the mowers we reviewed so far. This appears to be a big turn off in this technological age.

Pros
  • Convenient to use, install and keep
  • Silent operations
  • Durable and easy to maintain battery
Cons
  • Cannot be operated remotely through application
  • Doesn’t contain rain sensor

Things to Consider while Buying an Auto Lawn Mower

Since the market is saturated with variety of automated lawn mowers with slight to substantial difference in the models, here are a few things for you which are a must to consider while buying an automatic lawn mower.

Make

There are a large number of makes in the market to choose from. It is always advisable to opt for the brand which has earned a name over a period of time by maintaining quality. The easiest way to assess this is to take user’s reviews into consideration as they bring to you valuable advice after experimenting with the product. This article reviews only a few robot mowers for your help, however, there are a lot more currently available in the market.

Quality

Quality is something you should never compromise while purchasing your robotic lawn mower. Had it been for any other product, I might have advised you otherwise. However, given the fact that land mower is something to be used almost always outdoor and has to trim rough and tough trough, in uneven terrains, sloppy surfaces, narrow alleys at times and also has to withstand the extremities of weather, it has to be of supreme quality. A quality mower will no doubt be a lasting partner.

Cost

Honestly, no robotic mower in the market is lowly priced. The cheapest one even would fall heavy on your pocket and disrupt your monthly budget, for some time at least. The manifest reason for its being costly is the technology which goes in its designing.Be within your budget but be mindful that usually those with higher price ranges offer quality, durability and better functioning.

 

Physical Features:

Convenience of Use

True that perimeter to be trimmed is to be either remotely or manually set even in the robotic mowers. But once set, the operations should be hassle free so that you may sit freely and enjoy your time. The auto mower which requires human assistance other than the initial set up is a big NO in my list.

Cut Quality

Special attention should be paid to the cut quality when you choose an auto mower. Two things to check in this regard are: how finely does it mow and secondly what is the lowest and maximum grass height it can chop. Please be cautioned to check it keenly in the list and choose according to your requirements.

Area Coverage

Know well the range you want your mower to cover before placing your final order lest you get into the trouble of investing in extra marking for boundaries. The average area covered by majority of the available mowers’ ranges from ¼ to ½ acres. However, with increased competition in the robotic mower market, more efficient mowers covering more area are being launched. Check each feature of available automatic mowers patiently and make a wise choice.

Weather proof Tech

Most of the robotic mowers in the market are equipped with this feature. However, I would advise you to double check this before buying one for you.

Charging Time

The purpose of making a special mention of charging guide here in the Buyer’s Guide is to keep you informed of the substantial variations in the time different lawn mowers take to get their battery charged. While a few get charged completely within 45 minutes or one hour, the others take complete 4 to 5 hours in charging. Clearly, it depends on the quality of their batteries and the speed of built-in charging system. Be advised to check charging time, along with battery time which denotes how long the battery lasts, while reading the product descriptions.

Warranty

Not to forget that an imperative check is to be made with the warranty mentioned in the spec section.

Safety and Security

Majority of the mowers in the market come with both these features. However, chances are they could be missing in some brands. Therefore, cross check before making your mind for one, that it possesses all the safety measure you need to keep your pets and kids safe. Similarly, make sure the mower you select has smart security system. Those which allow you to virtually track your mower on your phone can be the best picks.

Conclusion
In sum, bringing the robotic technology from tech parks to home gardens, robotic lawn mowers have imparted a long-longed comfort to the house owners and professional gardeners alike. Given the ease of operation, lawnmowers have crept into many households. However, the choice of a robotic lawnmower largely varies among masses, depending upon the sought-after features such as battery time, mow time, locality, warranty and many other factors.

All in all, robotic lawnmowers are an indispensable part of those households which value time and mental peace over money. Bidding you adieu with the hope that the review would help you a great deal in making a wise purchase of your robotic grass mower.


FAQs

What is the difference between hydro static and automatic lawn mower?

The basic difference between them both is the use of power. While the hydro static mower uses fluid rather than belts in order to transmit power to wheels from engine, the automatic lawn mower uses a gas pedal to transfer energy from engine to wheels.

How does robotic lawnmower work?

Average automatic lawn mowers use a mapping system. Users are supposed to lay a wire in the perimeter which needs mowing. Most of them are driven remotely with the help of mobile application. The obstacle sensor,usually installed in the front bumper, guided by RADAR detects the obstacles coming to the way and automatically changes course to ensure safety.Those which come with GPS system are designed to track paths, patterns and can be scheduled in advance.

How may I know that my robotic lawnmower is functioning well?

Many robotic lawnmowers are programmed to send you alerts on your mobile application in case something goes wrong. For instance, getting stuck in paddy grass or trouble going back to the charging pad. For this, you can well choose an option to receive such alerts as text message and handle the issue instantly if you are home, or at your return from office.

Which is the best robotic lawnmower?

Out of the wide selection of lawnmowers, it is hard to just bluntly label one as ‘the best’ as much of it depends on individual needs. It can well be determined by the size and surface of your lawn, the frequency you want your mower to be set at and many other factors. However, be mindful to check with our Things to Consider while Buying a Robotic Lawnmower section while choosing the best automatic lawnmower for you.

How frequently do I need to clean my robotic lawnmower?

The manufacturers do not advise to clean your mower of the blades and clippings as they keep decomposing themselves in the soil and don’t remain in the mower. However, if your lawn has trees which throw sticks on the grass and your mower mulches them off along with mowing, you are advised to clear the underside once every two weeks to keep any possible blockage at bay.

Do robot lawn mowers collect grass?

Precisely, no. All the robotic lawnmowers available in the market are designed not to store grass in themselves, they rather keep exhaling the grass, chopping it into fine clipping sand letting it decompose with the soil. This provides nitrogen to the grass and nourishes naturally.
