Due to health reasons I’m purchasing an autonomous mower in the next week or 2. Does anybody here have one and if so what brand and rate your satisfaction.
Have a good day.

Bro, yes! Segway x430 and it's amazing.
Its done so well my neighbor hired it to mow their yard... Figure it will pay for itself by year end
Hope your health improves/stabilizes- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
State Farm corporate has a brace of them them mow their campus lawn now. Unfortunately I cannot comment on how dependable they are, their lawn looks good as it ever has.

they cut so much better than any lawn mower I have seen.
Light weight, cut slow, very sharp blades... cuts laser perfect lines and alternates 4 different directions...- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
Thanks Trey,
I was down to the Navimow x430 or the Husqvarna 410i. I was leaning towards the x430 and your input has helped in my
decision.
Thanks again for your input.

I'd be too afraid someone would scam it

The Segway has GPS and cellular and can be tracked even if powered off.
It also sounds a non stop 120db alarm until someone inputs a code if picked up while it's working- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
I have been using robotic lawn mowers since 2017. The journey has been long, the improvements substantial.
Nothing beats Husqvarna robotics mowers. Period. Parts. All available. Been around forever.
There are so many now and so many that go out of business.
Cut quality. App. Parts. Support. Nothing beats Husqvarna. I had the 430x. Bought and used 3 more of them on other properties.
I did and try out many other brands. Curiosity. I decided to try out Orion Sunseeker X7. Husqvarna decided to bump up the price of wireless mowers too much.
The Sunseeker X7 app does not compare to the Husqvarna app. Parts availability do not compare either. But it cuts much faster and more efficient. This is 2025 Sunseeker v a 2017 Husqvarna Automower 430x.
The only robotic mower to date that is better is the Kress. Costs a heck lot more too.
If you would like to talk, let's talk about it. I have demoed many dozens of them.Post edited by halen on -
Here are some of what I tried.

I have Tifway 419. I like it really short. The mower could cut higher. The 430x and X7
No robotic or rotary mower could beat the quality of cut of a reel mower. Period. -
X430 update
Yesterday I mowed an acre of land, mopped and vacuumed both floors, ran two loads of laundry and spent the whole day with the kids and didn't lift a finger.

I have a X430 being delivered Thursday. Looking forward to the experience.Since we don’t know where we are going we have to stick together in case someone gets there….Ken Kesey

How are these in general on large hills?
-
They are rated for 85% slopes??
It can handle a pretty steep slope- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
X430 update,
What a great product and performer it does what is expected, now if it is as reliable as it is functional.
I’m definitely sold on the technology.

Awesome.
They do constant OS updates and the last ten days it has dramatically improved from a month ago.
Faster, better battery life, huge leap in performance- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -

Guess you guys don't have a fenced in backyard? At the price they are I could buy a reg mower and hire someone to cut my grass and unlock the gate and do the back. They are certainly interesting but again price and a fenced yard no go
-
Segway makes a door that opens automatically for fenced back yards
I don't have a riding mower and the Segway x430 was cheaper than any riding mower available?
Your local labor market must be world's cheaper than mine to hire someone.
I run mine about every 3 days and keeps the yard looking mint.

$2500 is cheaper than any riding mower available? I've spent less than a combined $800 for the two riding mowers that I've been using since 2012. Lots available on the slightly used market.
-
Not worth the headache to me. I have completely purged all gas engines from my lawn care arsenal.
My last riding mower I bought a craftsman brand new and it was an absolute piece of junk, 1500 ten years ago and it was always breaking.
I've been using and abusing my electric equipment... Starts right away, no oil, no gas, no maintenance... Just works- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
Also if I was in a neighborhood with quarter acre lots I would seriously try to pimp that mower out. X450, acre and a half... Mow 3 or 4 lawns and it will pay for itself in no time.
I mow the neighbor beside me and I will be close to even on the investment by end of next year
I get it some folks like mowing the yard and what not.
I will gladly enjoy time with my family than sweat it outside wasting time on grass.- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
I will recoup cost of the robot in 2 mowing seasons.Since we don’t know where we are going we have to stick together in case someone gets there….Ken Kesey

Does it fold the laundry for you? -
I would love a robot that can load the dishwasher, do the laundry, put up clothes, clean the bath tubs and whatever task can be automated... Why not?- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit.

I'd love to get one but I have gopher mounds, pine cones, dog toys, and other obstructions I have to contend with before I mow even with a Cub Cadet rider.Gustard X26 Pro DAC
Belles 21A Pre Upgraded with Mundorf Supremes
B&K M200 Sonata monoblocks refreshed and upgraded
Polk SDA 1C's modded / 1000Va Dreadnaught
Wireworld Silver Eclipse IC's and speaker cables
Harman Kardon T65C w/Grado Gold. (Don't laugh. It sounds great!)

I can't speak for other brands but the Segway will pretty much avoid any obstacle the cameras can see. Now this will slow it down and obviously not mow in those places- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit.

I volunteer along with a few other parishioners to help mow our church cemetery. As I was mowing in the 90 degree heat yesterday I was wondering how a robot mower would work around the headstones? A set it and forget it robot mower with all those obstacles would be great I'm thinking.

I can't wait to get one of these!

As long as the headstones were far enough apart for the mower to pass thru it would be fine. The success would be in the setup though, the initial mapping etc- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit.
