For those bothered by an episode of advertising a mower what’s the difference in principle between this and many episodes advertising the internal insulation bricks Illia has been doing or the episodes where they put together and used the woodworking machinery? I joined to see Illia and Marina tackle a big project, something that likely I will never do. This was 13 minutes explaining how they addressed one problem, mowing a field. Perfectly interesting. I’ll never buy one of the mowers cos I enjoy mowing but nice to see how they tackled the problem. Onto the next one.
Thank you for your kind words and support, Thomas! (I hope I deciphered your name correctly). Yes, indeed - onto the next one, the floor/ceiling between attic and first floor :-) See you next Tuesday!
Many other u-tubers have done the same thing. Nothing wrong with it. They are giving a voice to an otherwise new product.
Didn't know watching a mower would be so interesting
I watch many videos where guys get gifted a new tractor or digging machine and they extol the item’s virtues the entire video. And get tons of views because it has to do with the owner’s lifestyle (farming, firewood making, homesteading etc). Either I’m interested or I go on to the next video, but unless they do it every video (unlikely), I consider it part of the channel.
Congratulations Illia on your new lawn mower.
Hope it works well for you.
The electric sheep has arrived! Looks nice. 2 hr mowing per charge is pretty good.
Very cool. You guys have a busy life and getting 2 hours a week back is a big deal🎉
Thanks for this guys. I have been considering automatic lawnmowers for a while but was always put off by burying cables etc.
I'll definitely look into this. My lawn has a bit of a slope, but if the Navimow can handle it, it will be a game changer for me.
We don't have a slope, but in specifications they say it can handle 30' slopes. Seeing how it copes with our bumpy field, I think it should handle the slopes quite well also.
Nice hair cut, Illia! Glad to see a garden company has noticed your site and asked you to feature a new product of theirs in your posts. Wonder if convenience will warrant usefulness. ❤🎉😊
That’s really cool. I’m gonna look into one of these. Thanks for introducing me to it.
Just think, when I started mowing 55 years ago, I had to use one of those ( green energy) mowers, called a, reel mower that had steel wheels on it and boy was it hard to push. Everytime you would get a stick in it that you didn't see when you were picking up the sticks. Then it would stop suddenly and then the handle would hit you under the chin.
Yep,,those were a workout!
@@brittawrolson5936 I looked up in Google. Like this one - www.thriftyfun.com/tf21944645.tip.html ? Oh boy, and our generation is complaining about working hard... with all the robotic mowers, dishwashers, washing machines and etc.
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm yes, just like the one's that you have looked up, except the one that I used had steel wheels on it.
Yes yes yes!!! Daddy would always tell me, “Girl you gotta keep strong so if any boy gives you grief you can give em what for.” Wellll No boys gave me grief… they were to afraid of my Daddy 🥰 I have a newer model now that I use in the spring but it’s getting harder each year to push that bad boy around the yard 🥵
These were the hardest things to push! If the grass was to long it wouldn't cut through it. I remember my daddy hollering to bring it back. He got a file sharpened the blades and off me and my brother went, dull blades were a curse!!!
I've seen versions of this lawnmower on an Australian yard/lawn CZcams channel and while it's a different company, same principle. I think that for people that have mobility issues mowing their lawn, or are traveling and aren't home to do their regular maintenance, I think this is a great idea. The main thing would be to make sure the grass hasn't gotten too too long or that the weather isn't too terrible where it would make the grass too wet to cut. I really like how you got this to try out!
I haven't seen anyone mowing their lawn manually the last 15 years!
Cool
Brilliant - I hope it works well for you.
It's a neat tool. After struggling with an electric mower with a small 3m sq piece of grass, I'm making the switch to a robot friend! I like the idea of enjoying a glass of wine and watching someone else do the work :)
Wow! I LOVE this idea. Your yard looks lovely! I just checked out the price online and feel that they are extremely affordable.
Thanks for the demo. Looks good!
Get er done! Impressive
One of the best reviews I've yet to watch. You sold me on a Segway. I love the anti-theft accessory and will get it too. Will you build a hinged box-cover for the mower? I may try to convert an old fiberglass dog house into a cover. I bet your children will take an interest in mowing the lawn via app. 😄 👍👍👍
Thanks a lot! Probably eventually we will built smth. but they say it's waterproof and should be fine as it is now. Let's give the device some hard times testing :-) Kids called it Edward. So we have Edward now at home helping with one chore.
I'm also thinking about an enclosure. The "garage" sold by Segway is very expensive for being just a plastic cover. There are a couple "dog house" like products sold on Amazon. They use plastic drape-like strips for entry. You could look to those for design ideas including size. One person in the reviews noted that this Segway model works perfectly with the one advertised. Just be aware that something on your design might interfere with the mower -- whether it's a lost signal or even tapping buttons when the mower goes into/out of it.
I personally would like a fence gate but only one company has one for $500 (USD) and it won't work with our fence. But at this price, I may buy two --- one for the front yard and one for the back.
Great idea since you have so many projects
I have to get one of these!
I like these mowers, but I would like them better if they also did trimming❤️🤗🐝
LOL I am considering letting the grass grow over there...
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm lol! I don’t blame you❤️🤗🐝
What an amazing review!
Need to put its charging station in a little covered doghouse for when it rains.
The title gives you a clue. A REVIEW !!!
That’s cool❤😊
Are you sure that fence is high enough? It might try "a leap to freedom"
Nice. How about a solar panel for charging? Because now you still have to run an electricity cable to the house,
That's an idea. We will be definitely installing solar panels, but we haven't yet looked into it.
Hi
Very good and big like
Thanks for the video!
Well that was very cool, indeed!
It handles the bumpy field, so a proper lawn will be easy work for it.
Indeed, a proper lawn would be a piece of a cake :-)
I don’t know why I'm surprised to see a robot mower when I've used a robot vacuum for years! Last time i had grass to mow I used a manual machine.
This is likely the best option for robotic lawnmowers today that don't require a buried perimeter wire. I purchased this one for the price and overall capabilities because I'm confident better mowers will appear in a couple more years.
What a fantastic gift to review. Wow. I look forward to an update. I have been considering getting one but here in New Zealand 🇳🇿 they are very expensive, and I have always been afraid to purchase one. Please give us updates over the spring summer so that we can assess the results. I’m looking forward to seeing how the lawn responds with such a gentle mower.
This model stands out in my research for a mower the last year or so. Mine arrives tomorrow, hopefully. It's also the cheapest robotic lawnmower for its capabilities. I plan to use it and learn as much about it as I can. I'm sure a newer, cheaper, and much better mower will be on the market in a couple years. Newer mowers won't require satellite guidance, for example. They'll likely use camera-based guidance with object identification and orientation. There are several start-up companies that have demonstrated this to work pretty well. I can see the next Segway model doing the same. But it'll be a couple years.
You may need to build your little robot mower a house. LOL
Good luck with your new automatic mower. I think you should give him a suitable covering to protect him from the elements, such as a dog :P
The official Segway "garage" is just a plastic cover like a car-port. And it's $200 (USD)!? Not worth it. I'd rather build one or buy a dog house made for these.
FYI in english it's moe as in Joe not mow as in cow :)
Thanks for the tip! 😉
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm That was one of the mispronunciations I heard as well, but I'm used to it. Another was "GeoFence" is pronounced with a "soft" g like Georgia (the US state or country) and not like Greg.
Excellent video just the same.
So now instead of 2 hours to labor at mowing you will have 2 hours to sit and watch it mow! 😂 Great review and pretty impressive how it handled mowing your field with some grass in it!
His grass looks just like our actual lawn. I really didn't think the mower would navigate and cut it at all. :) I'll find out when this model is delivered to us this weekend.
No more pushing the lawn mower, finaly time for the gym to do your excercises.🤣
I think this showed where you need to level or fill holes! I know having these sponsors help you renovate your farmhouse so I will like and watch ad aleays.
I'm happy to see this model tested on an area that looks as rough and mixed-grass as our actual lawn. I'm receiving this model tomorrow and looking forward to playing with it in our fenced-in back yard (and already inclined to get a second one for the front lawn since we don't have an open path through our fence. Yours is the closest to what I'm expecting this weekend on our lawn. Nice review.
Anyway, I do see this model has been widely reviewed. Last year the market looked pretty novel for robotic lawnmowers without perimeter wires, and I think this model is currently the best. I hope it works out for a year or two when other models will have been tested and work better. There is a company that appears to be offering a multi-task lawn robot that cuts grass, blows snow, and is a leaf blower and can be used to pull a wagon around the property for use. Since it's very much a start-up concept, I'll happily wait. For our property in Buffalo, New York, where a few meters of snow isn't uncommon each year, we have a great rechargeable snow blower, but a single robotic system might be part of our near-future plans.
This is the first video of yours I've seen. I was wondering why you seem so familiar to me. Then I realized it's likely because of the title of your channel: "Old Belgian farm". My great grandparents were originally from Belgium and my grandparents, aunts and uncles are very much like both of you. I also grew up in a little "Dutch town" of Little Chute, Wisconsin, so the familiar heritage and personalities are great to see and hear.
thanks. I'm sure to have fun when the mower arrives tomorrow. I suspect I'll have satellite reception issues.
Illia, Marina, I love your channel. Watching from 🇨🇦 .
For those that complain, go watch another channel. Part of CZcams is gaining sponsors, this takes a little burden away. What a great little mower definitely for Illia a great thing so he doesnt need to mow and can concentrate on home. I love to mow and find it therapeutic but i dont have that much 😂
I've watched every single episode you've uploaded and strangely you tube suppressed this one. I'm so sorry for watching this one so late
Very interesting. One less chore to do!
Wow!
Can the charging station be outside the whole year round/ or summer even when you get a lot of rain?
Yep, both mower and charging station are outside 24/7. They are waterproof. You just need to protect the power supply cable connection from water. So far, so good. We had quite some rains the last days and no errors/or other issues.
In winter they recommend to put it away if you don't mower, definitely when it's freezing temperatures.
Btw, the mower has rain sensor so it's stops working when it's raining.
That’s fantastic
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm It's worth noting that the battery is not replaceable, but it has a 2 year warranty (at least for the i110N). I'm not expecting this to last more than a couple years anyway, and Li-ion batteries are expensive. I'm looking forward to cheaper, smaller batter technologies to hit the market soon. Probably within a year or two.
I appreciate intended having seen how to set up, define the zone, etc. Do they sell Naviflow in the US yet?
Thanks! It seems like they do, but only online via Amazon navimow.segway.com/us/channel.html
Congratulations with your new mower. However, one pronounces the "o" in mower as in "go" or as in "Joe".
I’m sure you noticed the spelling mistake at the start of the video “ this episode is sponsored by NaWimow”.
Perhaps it’s worth doing an after release edit to change the W to a “v”?
Solche Automover sind für einen Rasen bestimmt und nicht für einen Acker!!!
Just to let you know, (hope you don’t think me rude) mow is pronounced with a long o. As in the way row a boat is pronounced. Or you could google how to pronounce it?
I watched the whole vlog even tho it was a review vlog because I know it helps you.
You are both such hardworking people, I hope this new piece of equipment lightens your work load.😊❤
❤❤❤
💖💖💖💖💖💖
I need Illia to connect All my electronic stuff. I NEVER manage until about the 20th try.
okay. if i get that for free i take it. otherwise its just too expensive. and it doesnt work without internet. i dont have a good net. so .... not for me.
but thanks for testing andits certainly a good addition to your hoeve.❤
👍
Hi guys. Looks a bit too small. Ideal for a small lawn in a courtyard, etc. Wouldn't a ride on or stand on mower be a better investment in the long term.
Tolle Sache, leider sterben immer viele Igel und andere Kleintiere dadurch. 😢
Круто👍 На каком сайте заказать международную доставку (нужна доставка в Армению и в Россию. Ваша ссылка только для Бельгии, но мб у них есть отправка по миру ?). Расскажите пожалуйста как будет справляться с мокрой травой ? Какой максимальный угол подъёма (у вас ровный участок, но наверняка попробовали на склонах)) Какую высоту распознаёт лидар (рассаду цветов, огорода не порубит ? Если -ДА, то покажите как вирт. карту составляли поподробнее ?) Какая цена у производителя (там вроде 3 модели в зависимости от площади 500, 1000 и 1500). Заранее спасибо.
🌟👏👍🍀💐
👋🙂🤗😁😉
We have Sheep.
They eat and trim and fertilize the grass.
At the end of the year we eat the sheep.... but wait there's more ... because they have little sheep that carry on the job!
No directions needed.
No batteries.
No cord.
No license.
Just Old time farming at work!
Give it a go. Jim
I'm sure it mows just fine but having to make an account and log in to ur lawn mower is kinda over the top
You need a smarthpone to run your lawnmower. Thats what i am calling smartphonefacism.
Какая-то мелочь ползает по такой большой территории. Какое-то несоответствие. Лучше бы кататься по траве, как Форест Гамп. 😊
The expression “kill two birds with one stone” has been modified by some in Canada to say “two birds stoned at once”. 😂
An adaptation due to a line in a tv program.
That's a good one. I will remember it when I would need to sound like being Canadian 😄
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm 😂
Some people will find it funny, others will look at you sideways. 😉
Nice little machine. Great commercial for it. I hope you got it for nothing as many people will buy it based on your review. I should get one for my olive field.
One big comers your guys can do it better usch….

It needs a little shelter away from uv lights and hail.
I am old school and like mowing, it looks the same as a Roomba and for my kind of lawn that tool would not be suitable, I live in the Caribbean 🙏🏽
Now I need to google how the lawns in your region look like 😄 You made me curious!
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm I live in a zone where there is incline terrain and lots of rocks and tall grass if you don’t mow consistently and we have year round sun and temps above 60 Fahrenheit to 114
nope
Блин, ребята. Реклама это необходимо, не спорю. Но выделять целую серию на это - ну пожалейте зрителей )))
Should have bought a 🐐 it would have done it all and you wouldn't have to charge it.❤
I didn’t become a patreon so I could watch advertisements for lawn mowers.
life is too short for me to get seriously annoyed by this one occurrence.
So don’t watch. Being a patron is about helping,not dictating.
Luke 11:24
King James Version
24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. Gods blessings over you .
I don't mind sponsors in a content post, gotta pay the bills but an entire episode that's only an advertisement?
This was worth it, I think, because it’s one less daily chore given all they have to accomplish. I thought it was interesting.
Yeh I didn’t watch. I appreciate sponsors can be good sometimes but it cheapens the content. In this case there was no worthwhile content
I do not really appreciate this episode. As I am a big de hoeve Fan I am a little disappointed
How is that different from sitting and watching them repair or build or mow it themselves ? All in a days work 😊
The video is labelled as a review, you will have seen that before you started watching?
I have also enjoyed their reviews of Belgian beers, do you remember those?
None of these detract from our watching their work at establishing de Hoeve.
We have European brands, we don't need again another Chinese stuff. Disapointing from Illia and Marina.
А траву скошенную потом граблями собирать?
How come you did not show the grass actually getting cut? I saw no grass cut during this clip.
This is a great time saver for your situation, and it would be even better for the elderly who are no longer physically able to maintain their yards, but the cost would be too high for someone living on a pension. I agree with @buzeyez3236 that you really should build it a little shelter. It's great!
