Do Robot Lawn Mowers Work?

Jun 20th 2024

With summer right around the corner, the temperature is rising, as is your grass. Mowing the lawn can be tiring, overwhelming, and a chore, especially while pushing around a big bulky piece of equipment. But investing in a Robot Lawn Mower like LawnMaster’s OcuMow™ can help relieve the feelings of this extraneous task.

“This little mower is just what I wanted. I didn't want anything complicated, so this LawnMaster robot mower fit my needs perfectly. I just had to charge the battery, insert it into the mower and turn it on. So simple!” – Kellie N., Verified Buyer

How do they work?

Most robot lawn mowers are equipped with sensors or cameras to stay on the lookout for obstacles such as trees, pets and even flower beds. Depending on the model, these mowers can use a GPS system to map out your yard, or like the OcuMow™, come with magnetic strips to outline your yard.

The OcuMow™ has a high-range camera that helps it avoid obstacles to achieve optimal mowing and is designed for small yards less than 1,000 square feet in size. The mower comes with 30ft of magnetic strips to help line your lawn to ensure the mower will stay its course.

What are the benefits of a Robotic Lawn Mower?

Robotic Lawn Mowers are beneficial in several ways and can help make your life easier. Here are some key factors when deciding to purchase a robot mower:

1. Less Maintenance

Robotic mowers are fully autonomous and, therefore, suitable for those with mobility issues, those who deem the task a chore, and those who travel consistently.

2. Environmentally Friendly and Cost Savings

Investing in a robot lawn mower can be pricier than a traditional mower, but it can save you money in the long run since you can simply recharge the battery, instead of buying gas to power it. Using a robotic mower like the OcuMow™ can also be beneficial to the environment. Unlike battery powered mowers, traditional gas-powered mowers produce a great deal of emissions and pollutants, which can damage the environment and cause adverse health effects.

3. Less Noise

Traditional mowers can be extremely loud and can also bother your neighbors. With the OcuMow, the noise level is on average 28% quieter than gas mowers. This leads to less noise pollution, as well as being able to enjoy your backyard environment even when the OcuMow™ is at work, without disturbing your neighbors as well.

4. Fertilized Lawn

“Where do the clippings go?” you might ask. How the OcuMow™ cuts your grass can help your lawn flourish and prosper over time. The mower cuts the grass using three small sharp blades, and the clippings are returned to the lawn surface, where the nutrients fertilize the soil. This means stronger, healthier grass with less need for supplemental fertilizer and has the bonus of helping the lawn retain water in dry periods. It also means no grass clippings to dispose of or compost.

5. Complex Lawns

Not everyone has a flat lawn, which is why the OcuMow™ has deep tread wheels and a powerful drive system to grip slopes up to a 35% incline. Complex lawns are now a problem of the past.

“Set up could not be easier; I love the fact that the battery is removable, too. Also love that I don't have to leave it outside. It's very lightweight with a handle attached so very easy to bring in and out. I live in a row of townhouses with a fenced backyard.” – S. Edwin, Verified Buyer

Using a robotic lawnmower can be beneficial and efficient in caring for your lawn. Robotic mowers work as an alternative to your traditional lawn mower, and the Lawnmaster OcuMow™ is a great resource for people with mobility issues, a small yard, or for those who just don’t enjoy yard work.
