As someone who currently owns the Worx Landroid L (which is junk), here's what I'd want to know/see: * this video was done on a super flat lawn. What happens when there's a little bit of a hill? I know it says it can handle a 40° slope. I'd like to see that in action, especially considering it's not AWD, like the Luba/Luba2. * Do twigs/leaves get caught in the omni directional wheels? The EcoFlow Blade has omni directional wheels and everyone complains that if a twig gets caught in it, it screws up the rolling of the front wheels. * How long does it run on a charge? How long does it take to charge? Is the battery replaceable? This is basic info, because we know this won't be cheap, so 4 years in when the battery is flaking out, can you buy a new one? Or do you have to just get a new unit? To me, there's no sense making a robot lawn mower that's not AWD. My Landroid would CONSTANTLY skid out of its boundary wire, then I'd have to come and save it. What happens if this mower slides away from its happy path? Can it drive itself back or does it just get stuck there? I refuse to spend thousands of dollars on one of these things until it's truly doing everything on its own and I'm not constantly having to save it, like I did with my Landroid (I refuse to use it anymore because it's actually easier to just cut my lawn myself).
Finally one that cuts higher than 3inches! Would be very interested to see how a nice stand of TTTF handles that method of cut at 3.5inches! I'm still a 4.5 - 5" HOC myself, but with the razer blade method it might be doable. I prefer the higher cut for moisture management (and to help decrease water frequency) plus looks. My turf stripes champ at those heights. Just a quick note IP 66 is great, but not the highest for water. IP 67 I think should be the target rating for a mower just because you could potentially run into some standing water issues. (I'm an Electrical Engineer by trade and deal with industrial systems.) Love the high lift blade and the double blade cutter! From the obstacle avoidance, would love to see what would happen if you had some large leaves on the lawn if it would try to mow around them or would power through them like you'd want. One of my neighbors has tree leaves about the size of a disposable dinner plate that some times ends up the yard, and they don't really sit flat would love to see how it does with those. My front yard is around 3000 sqft and the back around 5000sqft but my house sits right between the two, placement of the areal would be interesting. How does it handle crossing sidewalks to deal with the hell-strip? Lastly the striping mode needs a double stripe option! so you get double wide stripes! This is the closest robomower to what I'd consider the perfect robo mower that I've seen so far.
As for the cutting leaves.... I'm not sure the razors would handle it unless it was dried out. But I think the obstacle avoidance may pickup on the giant leaves considering how large they are but I'm not entirely sure. As for the different areas your talking about. It's a simple task of setting up channels / pathways for the bot to cross while in its way to the different sections. Stripes mode from what I have been told will be customizable as your suggesting 😃
Love the idea of having a lawn and not having to mow - just would like to know if these work on country lawns, not just you suburb dudes (who actually want stripes !!!! on you lawn - Oy )
Looks similar to the Ecoflow blade that failed utterly. Mammotions Luba seems to be the bar to beat right now. If I could get a decent replacement around $500 for my Landroid Id be all over a GPS unit. Ive had enough of the perimeter wire.
Can you run two robots simultaneously? I have a gated backyard, so if I don’t figure out an option for backyard access, two might be my only option. It would be neat if they had a buddy mower that had a smaller profile for lower cost, in such cases. Thx
can they go under big trees? and on that note, how does it fare with a yard littered with tiny twigs? my trees shed a ton of tiny dry twigs. i usually pick up the bigger ones but there are too many to pick up by hand so i leave the tiny ones behind.
Nice review but I have a few questions. How many zones can it handle? Can it be programmed to turn off mowing when it travels between zones? (I have a gravel driveway that it would have to cross.) How would it handle pine cones on the lawn (a bit bigger than your hot dog)? How much light does the vision system need to operate without the optional RTF transmitter? Could you use it at night or only in daylight? How long does the RTF battery last before it needs to be recharged?
the blades do not spin between zones, i'm not entirely sure how many zones can be programmed but i believe its more than 10 (could be wrong, maybe more maybe less). great question on how much light for the vision system, hopefully airseekers iwll chime in. As for the rtf battery recharging time, they are now shipping it with a solar charging panel. they believe you won't have to recharge unless light is limited. I imagine if light is an issue you would be rechargin once a week or every other week.
In fact, what we see in all the test videos of wireless installations is that the lawn mower robot is being tested on a very flat lawn. In fact, we would rather see how the lawn mower works when there are obstacles, such as many trees or other obstacles on the lawn. Can the lawn mower robot cleverly avoid obstacles? We also want to see if the GPS wireless signal of the machine will be affected under the shade of trees. In cloudy conditions, such as many dark clouds. Will the GPS signal also be affected? Speaking of which, can machines go out to work on rainy days? These are all very important, and if the machine can only cut grass on sunny days, there will be many restrictions If there is a swimming pool on the lawn and the lawn has a certain slope to the pool, there is a certain slope. Will the lawn mower robot fall into the swimming pool uncontrollably under the influence of gravity? All the tested lawns are very ideal, but what we would prefer to see in such a high priced robot is that it does not require wiring, but can it achieve more powerful functions beyond that? Can anyone who has actually used robot give real feedback?
not quiet sure i understand what you're saying. the software allows you to create multiple zones and they're combined with paths between each zone for the machine to travel.
@@pestandlawnginja I know that this is possible but I saw this only in text:) no one shows on mobile app how multiple zones is working.. map with multiple zones. Can I send robot only in zone 2? How to create multiple zones? I really want to see this :)
Why are these little Dickie razor blades and not a proper thick blade like what’s on an edger or a mower or like a smaller version of like a thick robust mower blade?
Two razors isn’t gonna help they need to create lift if they create lift they wouldn’t need to cut every day maybe every third day they could do this by adding an air foil to the disc the razors are attached to the second blade isn’t doing a thing at all
@@pestandlawnginja oh ok I must have missed the fan part sorry but won’t it get clogged with damp grass I think if they added something non mechanical to the disc to create lift it would be better in the long run especially if the machine runs early In The am when the grass has dew or if it runs after a rain. Or they could replace the second razor with a high lift attachment to create some air flow
not an issue. its a long video and the mention was very quick. I do agree that wet grass has a potential to stick. they have been testing this fan based suction for the last few years and highly recommend to mow when the grass is dry for that reason.@@Justthemow
@@Losttouchjs The Tron Max is rated up to 1.5 acres. I'm all in. Worst case scenario I sell it on eBay for the Kickstarter price I'm paying for. I'd rather do the other lawn care stuff like fertilizing, weed killing, landscaping, levelling, etc. than mow. It is nice to do but my time can be spent better elsewhere with the lawn
They just paid you to advertise it? You weren't honest when you praised the lawnmower? And do you think it will come to the market or is it just a scam?
So... me being upfront about the terms then using the machine and being authentic is the wrong thing to do? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you will spin anything. Have a great day and thanks for the chuckle

Okay,now you're just showing off.
Really enjoy the reviews of new gadgets
💪🤑
What do you recommend Luba 2 or this ?
They should spike those back tires so it would aerate the lawn as it drives and separate the runners into individual plants
Helps for sure
the car don't seem to be heavy enough for creating holes on our lawns. lol

Just an fyi, the Luba 2 high cut goes up to 4 inches now

haha, second person to say by the looks this is the same. its not the same. be like me saying an that pear looks like an apple. must be a pear.
@@pestandlawnginja Shape wise its pretty similar, but this one is far superior from the ecoflow from what I can tell. I wish them all the luck!
Interesting robot mower, looking forward to their trim idea.
Hey ninja u have a great helper 🤣❤
💯
I just received the luba 2 I ordered yesterday 😅😅😅
It's like buying a cell phone. New tech always coming out
This looks crazy similar to the EcoFlo!
I thought so too. Side by side you can see major differences
There is another robot called Luba which has a cut height of up to 4". And is good on steep hills. Does the Airseeker work on steep hills?
yes it does
Isnt that improved version of EcoFlow Blade? At least it looks like that. Similar design, same wheels
Not the same company.

It would be neat if they had a buddy mower that had a smaller profile for lower cost, in such cases. Thx
Great question. I would assume if you have two different emails that would be a simple work around. Log out of one and log into the other
You just need the drone option they are working on to fly it over your fence.😂
I am still waiting on an autonomous reel mower with a HOC of down to 1/2 inch. Then I might fork over some cash.
That would be pretty cool
Any idea approximately how much it will cost? Good review!
updated link in the description of the video. they have kickstarter prices that are a tad lower right now.
Kickstarter has started crowdfunding, you can pay attention to it
The first 4 seconds sounds like you are Rapping :'D
😆

my 2c is it will be better to create no go zones if you buy this machine.

Awesome mower , any idea when it is getting released to the public ???
I believe they're shooting for June or July
Take all of my money!!!!!
👏😀
Kickstarter has started crowdfunding, you can pay attention to it
I'd love to see how it performs in thick St Augustine grass
good call
would like to see that mower with a 16in Reel instead of those blades .
What does battery and maintenance for the unit look like? Also does it have a no-go zone?
This model is pretty great considering the battery is removable and replaceable.
Yes it will have no go zones programmable
You are soo good at what you do broski love this 💯
Appreciate you
I have found that it only likes everything bagels 🤣
Mmmm bagels 🥯
When will this hit the market?
Estimated to be delivered end of the year for the kickstarter investors. So is guess March of 2025
i wish my automatic pool cleaner was as precise as this machine
That's be pretty cool 😎
Disappointed that you didn’t open the box with the string trimmer. 😂
My bad! The next one is pretty great 👍

you're not wrong. I have tested others on slopes but this one i did not get a chance.
@@pestandlawnginja yes,so would you test again to solve all my doubts?
Hello sir. Which other Robot mowers have you tested/compared? Thank you.
Check out my product review Playlist
did you notice, could it suck in leaves and mulch them?
i haven't tried that. this video was done early winter. when they send me a demo version i'll test it out more thoroughly
Does this still work when the mower cannot see the RTK station, across multiple cutting lawns with obstacles
That's the idea yes
Have to mention it. IP66 is not the highest IP rating :)
Good call
Ya know when it's officially on the market? I heard summer 2024 but you have any connections?
they have updates pretty consistently on there facebook and kickstarter. links in the description. other than that that's all i know unfortunately.
Kickstarter has started crowdfunding, you can pay attention to it
Would you recommend this or the Segway Navimow?
This has more options.
Where did u get the app to test it?
Airseekers
@@pestandlawnginja can we see it somewhere ?
@@maciejsalamon they haven't launched yet. best to post on there facebook page. they've been fairly active there for questions like these.
Have you tried the Luba or Luba 2?
yes.
Have you tried the mowrator?
not yet
what about slopes? Did you test it on those?
No I did not get a chance to directly test the slopes
This or ecovacs goat g1?
man, i've never had the pleasure on the g1. hopefully someone comments.
What is the max grade that it can do?
35 degrees i believe
Sounds like a rap at the beginning 😅
😆
Those little fingers aren’t doing anything either they could add stif tines in a V to direct debris away like a cattle guard on a train
Yeah. They were in the idea phase to test if there was value. Fully agree
Can u compare Segway i vs this one?lol
I can !
@@pestandlawnginjaIf it is possible ,thanks for the help.
@@nickmeng2539 just waiting on a machine
So ein möchte ich gerne. Und ein Video auf Deutsch. Möchte es gerne testen

How much are we talking? 3k?
5K?
I think retails around the $2499 mark

Why are these little Dickie razor blades and not a proper thick blade like what’s on an edger or a mower or like a smaller version of like a thick robust mower blade?
These mowers run a very high rpm compared to traditional mowers.The heavier the blades, the more damage will occur if something goes wrong.
They're meant to take a tiny bit off the top. Sharp blades equals less stress on the grass
Merci. Je préfère terramow. Jean Jacques. Sézanne. France.

I can't pull the trigger on any of these robotic wannabe lawn mowers just yet. They still have some bugs to work out.
All depends on your expectations really
I think people just needs to get out of the house and mow their own grass.
Its therapeutic for sure
That’s the whole point of robot mowers so you can get out of the house and spend more time with your family doing things
Try telling that to my 1 acre of 20 - 25 degree slopes especially when Bermuda wants to be cut every 4 days

worst bots i ever seen
not sure why you would say that without actually using it
Looks broken right out of the box.

This mower is a copy of the Ecoflow Blade and will suffer the same problems. Better avoid this mower ….
Nope. Not even close. Having handled both of them they're not equal by any means
