Robotic Lawn Mower

Robotic Lawn Mower

There are a number of features to consider when buying a Robotic Lawn mower. These include type of battery, battery power, grass cutting height, can it handle slopes, size of lawn that can be cut with one battery, overall price, how do you set perimeter guidelines, recall patterns and will your robotic lawn mower get stuck on slopes or other difficult to navigate areas.

Each of these criteria vary in importance based on your personal situation. For example if you have a small flat lawn, being able to navigate slopes will not be as important as being able to set the grass height to a level that satisfies your requirements.

Battery power is also important since longer wet grass, large lawns with slopes will take more power than flat dry small lawns. Carefully consider this issue and confirm with your sales person the specifications of the robotic lawn mower you are considering for your purchase.

For all robotic lawn mowers you will need to set up perimeter wires. Some robotic lawn mowers will allow you to program them to mow several different areas. Of course this will impact battery power requirements so take into account the total size of the area to be cut as well as travel time to get to all of the areas you need to cut.

General performance reviews for the robotic lawn mowers can be found at various places on the web, however you really should review reviews that have situations very similar to your own, before making a purchase.
