Does anyone have much experience with robot lawnmowers? I’ve been considering one, but trying to find info now involves digging through a lot of AI slop.

Id prefer one that plays nicely with HA, as well as not internet dependant. It’s also for a small garden (50m²).

The best bet I’ve seen so far is to modify a yardforce mower with open mower. What other (good) options are there?

    Your mileage may vary… I’ve used mine for 5ish years, no problems with the wire apart from seasonal stripping and re-terminating the ends due to corrosion. My neighbour have up on his wire based one after a few seasons because the wire somehow broke over every winter.

    In addition to GPS based one, I believe there are also some camera based ones these days.
