A robot mower that, once the boundary wire is buried and the settings are right, genuinely removes mowing from your life. Getting to that point is a weekend of work, and reviewers who like it still call it flawed.
This entry is written from the 4 sources listed at the bottom of the page. The numbers are our editorial estimates drawn from that material, not measurements, and no statistical sample sits behind them.
On the evidence gathered here, yes. 75% of owners say they would buy it again, and satisfaction is still 7.7 out of 10 two years in. Multi-year trials report it still working with only blade changes.
The dip is at installation and the first fortnight of getting stuck. Owners past that point are the ones who say they would never go back.
Wire damage from aeration or digging means a fault hunt. Batteries and blades are consumables on a long ownership. Reviewers who rate it highly still describe recurring stuck-in-a-corner behaviour.
Multi-year trials report it still working with only blade changes. Sentiment across the ownership period stays close to flat, which is rare: it reads 6.8 out of 10 in the first week and 7.7 two years later.
Worth it for: Complex lawns you would otherwise pay someone to cut; People who will do the wire install properly; Anyone who wants the lawn cut daily. Think twice if: You want it working the afternoon it arrives; Very small simple lawns where a push mower is quicker; Gardens full of toys, tools and obstacles.
