Why We Chose These Models

Our selection process is 100% data-driven using objective metrics from our robots.json database:

  • Filtering: Lawn mowers rated for 1,200m²+ coverage
  • Ranking: Sorted by coverage area or battery life
  • Verification: All specs cross-referenced with manufacturer datasheets
  • Updated: Database refreshed monthly with new models and price changes

Buying Considerations

  • Measure your steepest slope: Add 10% safety margin to manufacturer specs. Wet grass reduces traction.
  • Wire-free requires clear sky view: RTK GPS needs satellite signals. Use wire-guided under dense tree cover.
  • Buy for 1.5x your lawn size: Larger capacity rating = faster completion and less wear on the mower.
  • Price range in this category: $1,799 - $5,999

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long does setup take? Wire-free models: 10-30 minutes to map your lawn. Wire-guided: 2-4 hours to install boundary wire for 516672 sq ft.
  • Can it mow in the rain? All models have rain sensors and return to base. However, wet grass clogs blades and reduces traction on slopes. Best to schedule for dry conditions.
  • How often does it need to mow? Daily or every 2 days for best results. More frequent = finer clippings that decompose faster. 60cm cutting width on our winner.
