"Trying to maintain my lawn while it's nearly a 110F heat index on a daily basis during these hellish months made me reconsider the idea of purchasing a robot that would perform this task for me. I place order, able to checkout for a sweet deal of just under $700 (I had a bit of a gift card left to use as well) No 2 day shipping, but free nonetheless, so I'm satisfied. Of course the next few days is filled with "optimizing", while I effectively continue to try and jam a square peg through a round hole to make my style of installation work with the robo. But he was acting out against all this nonsense by slicing through or pulling out the boundary wire, not reacting to my 90 degree corners and alarm that he was "outside the working zone" and I couldn't once get him to actually enter into his charging station. Even if I set him right on the wire, 3 feet from the charger, and a straight shot home, he would turn of to the right at the last minute, bumping into the side of the house, causing him to reset and either try again, or wander off in another direction, simply refusing to fuel up so he wouldn't have to be subjected to this disgraceful work environment any longer. On the fourth day I commit to doing things right, 14" gap from the fence/house, 2.5' between pegs, nice round corners, and I used a trimmer to outline a trench down to the soil level for the wire."
"The mower uses the low voltage wire as a guide, half of the Landroid is on one side or the wire and half on the other when its returning to its home charging station. Also map out your yard so you pick a spot to “hide” the mower. The wire that I installed around the yard laid on top of the yard at first but then became hidden after a few weeks. I have always cut my yard so out the gate I used another electric push mower to trim the yard short. Every month to month and a half I run the electric push mower around the edge of my yard where the Landroid does not reach due the guiding wire. My dog doesn’t seem to mind the mower and has quickly figured out what is “out of bounds” for the mower. At first I thought I would miss the “cut lines” in the yard that a traditional mower provides but the constant mowing keeps my grass cut short and you can not see the wheel lines created by the Landroid. I only have the mower installed in my back yard, I don’t have an access area for the front so I still have to trim the grass in the front with my regular mower. I do unplug the mower and move it inside in the winter but I leave the charging station and wire installed in my yard."

"The Husqvarna dealer locally was a bit timid to get their hands on the robot as they primarily work on engines and not electronics but I stood watch as they dissected Jerry and installed the new switchboard. My neighbor heard the built in (super loud) alarm and stopped a “kind gentleman “ who stated he was simply putting the robot back in the yard bc he was drining in the road.... that can’t happen by the way due to the boundary wire I personally installed. Good question, if the pin code you set during installation is not entered within the allotted time, the mower will disable. You can adjust the time in the settings if you have the Automower Connect feature and maybe if you tinker with the built in screen (easy to use). If the Thief makes off with your mower, you can use the Automower Connect GPS app like “Find iPhone” feature and track it back down."
"You will need to purchase the mower from a seller that can communicate the proper phone numbers etc. When I called tech support I was referred to a local "Great Northern Tool" location. Luckily the dealer I purchased the unit from offered great support. You should read the more advanced manual before you start the install and set up. I would recommend that you layout a small test area of boundary wire to confirm that the mower works before you spend the time installing the full boundary wire. If you are installing the guide wire with a "large Kit" plan on around 6 hours of hard labor to lay the wire and a couple of hours set up time after that. We've had two instances where the mower went outside the boundary wire into a pine straw bed that has been "looped" out of the cutting area. Shorten up the "over wire" distance a little gives the machine a bit more room to maneuver. As the grass is always short it has taken a few weeks for the lawn to turn deep green again. Keep in mind that you will still need to edge your lawn and do some minor cutting with a conventional mower."
"I have it mowing in the middle of the night so that when I wake up every morning my grass looks the same as it did the day before, and the day before that, and the day before that."
"We have a large yard and operate 2 at the same time."

Reviews
"My only, minor, complaint is that the user guide doesn't provide clear directions for setting up the mower if the charging station cannot be connected to the perimeter wire. For example, you might need to place the charging station in your garage if there isn't any practical way to have it located in the yard as part of the perimeter wire."
"Have had it for three months, initially took it about 4 days to get yard fully covered that had 4 inch tall grass mowed completely, from there I have it mowing 3 times a week and keeps yard well maintained, cleaned some wet grass buildup from around blade once but otherwise have had no issues."
"Best investment that I made for the lawn this year."
"I bought this for my dad to maintain his lawn and I was not disappointed."
"It gets stuck often, overheats, or some other error occurs before I need to physically bring it back to the base. RobomowUSA has been really great with all my questions but I think that I may need to return the unit if I can't get it to work correctly in my yard. Gave it a good run through but it keeps throwing a Drive Motor error about every 10 mins (with freshly cut lawn). To the loaners credit, it was a prototype model for next year (RC312) which is one I will be purchasing when it arrives on the market. Karsten did help me get rid of the U88 code it was throwing but I am getting kind of tired of dealing with this mower."
"The 2016 model worked great, mowed flawlessly unassisted to three months, only got stuck a couple times and was then stolen. unless I manually do a factory reset at the start of each mowing session, it never gets more than a few feet from the edge, leaving most of the center of the yard unmowed. Unfortunately, there is no provision for installing the older 2016 version of the firmware so the robomow is just about useless. Laving to carry it out to each zone and manually start it mowing using the iOS app.Instead of mowing with my old gas mower once a week, I have to carry it out to the front, back or side yard several times a day and manually start it. Tried to find out how to get it replaced under factory warranty, called several dealers today."

"Update 1: Customer support was nice and quick. Update 2: got the parts quick, 40 minutes of work later and up and running again."
"I do not find this to be a problem and is presumably done to help things being chopped up inside to get out from in there in the normal process of mowing going forward. (In other words, the cuttings are not evenly distributed across the rear cleared area as it moves forward; if that matters to you.). I am attaching a 6 minute video of me dragging it around a small brushy area inside my goat pen. Also, I attached the 'remote' control console to the tongue with two of the huge zip wire ties that were holding the mower to the pallet it was delivered on. I ran one of them through the hole in the tongue formerly holding the pin to support the angle adapter which I store in the garage. I bought it to maintain about 10 acres of grass meadow we have that has been shrinking as brush is encroaching from perimeter woods along the sides. I have made two trips around it so far chopping anything that is there from lots of thick brush to small trees that range up to a bit over 2 inches in diameter and 15+ feet tall. The narrow fenced area is pretty cramped, but it gives you a good view of how it works."
"This machine is a beast!"
"Will be returning today. Amazon provided information that if you have the crate it arrived in use it for the shipping company who will pick it up.... Unless you were tedious and took extra special care and took apart your crate there was no way it was going back together again... Amazon also said if you do not have the shipping material the shipping company will take care of it that only deals with certain companies in Amazon cannot provide all information for every single company. The shipping company will be back because it was not prepared the way they needed So in five days I have to put the mower on a pallet strap it down and the company will shrink wrap it and it will finally be on its way.. Amazon stated 2-3day refund upon receipt of pick up...."

Best Walk-Behind Lawn Mowers

Greenworks 20-Inch 12 Amp Corded Lawn Mower 25022
25022 Power: 12A Features: -Mulch side discharge and rear bag. 3-in-1 feature provides multiple options for grass clippings from rear bagging, side discharge and mulching capabilities for versatile needs.
Reviews
"I took it out today to mulch up some lingering leaves from last fall and it worked great, plenty of power, and I don't really mind pulling an extension cord."
"I could no longer get the MM675 model, so I went to Home Depot and "upgraded" to the MM1800, the 18" corded mulching/bagging mower from Black and Decker. It didn't feel as strong as my old mower, was more unwieldy, and had this awful plastic shroud that made it hard to maneuver. Bear in mind, I did not consider gas because I don't have the room to keep fuel around and I have a modest size yard. Other nice features include very large rear tires, what might be the largest in the industry. The safety is easy enough to use to not be obtrusive and the bar is full length so you can grab it from either side. Strong metal controls with positive stops made height adjustment a snap. This weekend I gave the bagging feature a try because I wanted to mow up the leaves all of my yard. The bag filled up quickly which was to be expected given the large number of leaves I was mowing, but it was easy to empty. I leave it chained under my deck all year long since I don't have a garage or a tool shed. Update from Spring 2014: I tried a Black and Decker mower this year that was battery operated. It lasted 2 weeks and died when the blade hit a root and bent 90 degrees. It's started to rust a bit (yes, I still keep it outside), but I plugged it in and cut my lawn in a snap."
"A little backstory about why i chose to go with an electric mower: My weekly chore growing up was having to cut the lawn at my parents (1/3 acre); my parents had a craftsman mower which had powered wheels and ran on gasoline. The toughest part about using a corded mower is figuring out the best way to maneuver/cut the lawn without having to constantly adjust the power cord. Once you get that down, you will enjoy using this mower - it's got enough power to handle lawn mowing and even the occasional wayward branch. 1.Buy yourself a nice extension cord that will A) stand out from the lawn color and B) reach from the power source to the farthest corner of your lawn. I keep the cord between my two legs while I mow so that when I do the U turn at the edge of the lawn to do the next line of grass, the cord easily follows behind the mower."
"The mower had no problems getting through it as long as we were patient. I would prefer this electric mower over a gas mower or battery power mower just bc you don't have to stop when you run out of gas or the battery runs out."
