WOW i didnt know it got rid of the grass cuttings for you as well...What does it do drive down the tip on its own as well..

Waste of money dont be lazy buy a normal one and cut the crass ! save your self £400 +

Lots of people here on high horses, probably posting from their £600 iPhones...

The benefits of this have been clearly laid out and it's a good price for it. Deal, and a good product for those who can afford it. I see no problem with that.

It's things like these ultimately making people fat slobs.

What are you upto hunny?

Haha

If you have one of these you just have this accessory https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00KESD7C6/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?qid=1462446750&sr=8-5&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=robotic+lawnmower&dpPl=1&dpID=51Lk1x8FCSL&ref=plSrch

This really got your goat didn't it.

I'm undecided in if this is extravagant nonsense or genius.

I have the answer and it save you money and cost you nothing to run.

Get a goat!

The bonus, after a few years you get a new one, and get dinner as well. :smile:

Do you have a washing machine? A dishwasher? Electric vacuum cleaner? A car? Where is your limit? Anyway, I don't think that walking maybe 1/4 mile extra once a week to cut the grass would save someone from obesity.

If ever there was an advert for obesity and laziness then this is it. Is it sponsored by Coca Cola and Greggs?

Agree entirely with this. People are happy to pay £600 for a phone that will be replaced in 2 years time for another £700 phone, yet whinge about this mower that will outlast multiple phones.

This is something i am seriously considering in future - will be starting with a robo vaccum first though!

Yep. That's right. But you would need the garden loop to be around the front lawn. It sounds odd, but if the mower doesn't have the loop around it, then it doesn't run. God knows why they designed it like that.

WANT.

I think there might be a video on YouTube explaining how to use it in 2 seperate areas - my garden is all one area, so I am afraid that I can't answer your question properly...Sorry!

how would this work if i have a small front lawn, then a path that leads to the back lawn (also a door)? it looks awesome and would save a hell of a lot of time. I'm assuming i would have to plonk it at the front, let it do its thing and then after an hour put it at the back.

My wife and i have decided we dont want kids.

So if anyone wants a 6 year old and a 4 year old?

In general a good idea. However there is no chance in hell that I will get one.
Mowing the grass is my once a week excuse to go outside and keep the kids 'safely' indoors, with mummy. A pair of headphones and some tunes and I'm extatic.

From memory, its coded in some way, so if its stolen its useless.

Wouldnt stop someone lifting it out of envy though

+1

If we wanted to use these we'd need two. One for the front lawn and one for the back - unless you can teach one to cross the back yard, open the gates and go up the driveway....

I'd do it though, if we didnt have someone doing it already for free :smiley:

Couple of questions...

- how much wire is supplied? Can't find it on the Amazon page, but I'm probably just missing it

- how does this compare against the Indego? Bosch make a lot of song and dance about their algorithmic scanning, whereas this seems to mow random patches. Does it still cover the whole lawn?

Setting up wires seems like a lot of hassle. Particularly as I have about 3 pieces of lawn to do.

With any luck, these things will have cameras and some intelligent navigation in the near future. Show it the boundary once & let the processor do the rest. Or a mow the green bits setting.

After buying a new petrol mower by Qualcast (piece of cheap unreliable crap) wish I'd spent the extra cash bought one. On the plus side, the lawn mower could sleep with my plug in hybrid car!

Lifes too short to do menial tasks that you dont have to.

Get a life, more money than firkin sense if you buy one of these numbers, give it to a local hospital for sick kids eh!
ppl like you's who buy silly stupid gadgets need to be booted up the hole, twice :smirk:

Voted HOT.

If my FIL didnt cut our lawns for us, i'd have a couple of these.

Yes it does and it turns it into compost as they keep saying to treat the lawn lol

Yes, sounds like he has been smoking the grass!:confused:

I do want it, don't need it, but have to have it!

I am indeed. And it's way past your bedtime!!!!... You can mow the lawn for free next time :stuck_out_tongue:

Hello Dad, didn't realise you were on HUKD.

I am all for new technology improving one's lot in life, however there is no market for this device. I cannot wait for fully autonomous cars that require no input from useless drivers who are everywhere these days! Get these b'stards off the highways and let them drive their own lawnmowers instead, regards....Jeremy and Muffboy.

Love it, it's Genius!!...

But I actually like cutting my grass, it's probably my only #switch of life# moment where I can just enjoy the simple life for a while.

Am I strange?....probably :smile:

How does it open the gate to get out to cut the front lawn though?

It's good for lawns up to 400 sq metres , which is about a tenth of an acre. If your lawn is that small it will take approximately 3 seconds to cut with a normal mower

So why don't they sell an electric push along mower which does the same tricks?

Get family members under the age of 14 to cut the lawn with a cheap flymo. Reward them 2 quid for hours of work.

These are only good if you have a flat lawn, no lumps or bumps etc. Had a Robomow years ago and it could not cope with any irregularities.

Does it pick up the dog poo at the back of the garden too? :smiley:

Heat for the price!

Wouldn't a handyman be cheaper? It doesn't do cricket stripes, but hey I suppose this is a deal, heat for the price!

A hour a weekend? What you got a football pitch?
Even the local council doesnt cut the grass that much. Try every couple of months

No. Instead it blitzes them small so they pass the nitrogen back into the grass to help it grow. There is no grass cuttings to be seen.

Ha ha - I guess that you haven't read about this mower! The mower is actually only cutting a very small amount (think of it as cutting the lawn with a pair of scissors) so the clippings are mulched and left on the lawn as feed which actually means you end up with a very nice green lawn. Mine is in a much better state than when I used a petrol mower.
Hope this helps you understand how this works :wink:

Can someone who is Admin change this to say Flymo and NOT Clump please?!

WOW i didnt know it got rid of the grass cuttings for you as well...What does it do drive down the tip on its own as well..

Voted super hot! Having seen the video, read the reviews, i really do not know why I have not bought this before. Price fluctuates on Amazon between £499 and £998, so I have taken the plunge!

I wouldn't call a 10m wide x 40m long lawn small, that's one hell of a mower to do it in 3 seconds

Couldn't agree more. Our garden is 80 foot and about as wide as a semi detached with a garage. I'm guessing 40 foot by 80 foot. 3200sq foot. The mower wakes at 0500 and sleeps at 0930. It wakes up again at 1900 falls asleep again at 2200 twice a week and I have a cut lawn. Technology that saves time is always expensive and called "lazy" to begin with. A dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer... All automated devices to save time. All expensive.

I have owned mine for 2 years now and can honestly say it is brilliant. For those who will say I am lazy, this saves me an hour every weekend of mowing the grass (and getting rid of the grass cuttings) which allows me to spend more time playing football with the kids or perhaps sat on my backside watching sports on TV with a cold beer :sunglasses: If you do decide to buy one, the initial set up might take you half a day, but after that sit back and enjoy your extra free time

Napalm airstrike followed by a cement mixer, lawn problems sorted.

Waste of money dont be lazy buy a normal one and cut the crass ! save your self £400 +

I could do with about 3 of these.
