If you are a big fan of the Roomba robotic vacuum, you may understand the want for a robotic lawnmower. They are becoming a popular option for those who want a perfect yard but don’t necessarily have the time to mow every couple days. If you are looking for a robotic lawnmower, there are a lot of options from big names like Honda and Husqvarna. Purchasing the best option for your needs requires knowledge about what’s available.

Features of Robotic Lawnmowers in Alpharetta, GA

  • Perimeter Fence: In order to set boundaries for your robotic mower, you’ll need to install a perimeter wire around the edges of your yard and gardens. This is a feature that is standard among all robotic mowers.
  • Noise Level: Some robotic mowers are just about as loud as a regular mower, but some are so quiet, your neighbors won’t notice their use. It is no surprise that Husqvarna and Honda advertise the quiet noise level of their mowers.
  • Connectivity: As with most robotics, you expect robotic lawnmowers to come with an app. This is not true in all cases, but some connect via Bluetooth, cellular, and GPS.
  • Anti-theft: Many robotic mowers come with anti-theft devices that will send you notification if they go out of their perimeter and require a pin to change programming. Unless you live in a very rural area, you probably need a version with anti-theft.
  • Grade: If your yard is on a hill, you’ll need a mower that can handle the grade. Honda has one that will handle a 25% grade, which is enough to handle most yards.
  • Lawn Size: There are robotic mowers that will cover up to ¾ of an acre, which is also enough to cover most yards. If you don’t need this much coverage, opt for something less expensive.
  • Rain Sensor: The higher-end robotic mower will put itself away if it senses rain.
  • Charging and Cutting Time: A quality robotic mower will run for an hour, and it will take a little over that for it to charge.

Life with a Robotic Mower

If you have a robotic mower, and it has the features you need for your lawn, your lawn will always be the perfect height. That is because the mower will run for an hour every other day or so, and you won’t have to think about it because they are smart enough to return to their charging stations and run on schedule. The cost of robotic mowers starts at around $1,000 to $3,000 for a quality product, which makes it an affordable lawn care option.
