WORX Landroid L WR155E Robot Lawn Mower for large gardens up to 2000m2 / Automatic robotic lawn mower for manicured lawn with application control, wifi connectivity

Well worth the effort required to set up the mower and its guide wire. Has generally worked reliably since and the lawn already looks better. Just a few teething issues, through running the wire marginally too close to edges leading to the mower getting stuck, and one incidence of the guide wire itself getting cut - it does seem to stretch a little and raise up in places. in that respect Worx could have been more generous in the provision of pegs and spare connectors. The on board display and control logic is rather confusing. The app is better and quite comprehensive but could do with better instructions. But overall well satisfied with the purchase.

EDITED:Review below still stands but I’m knocking one star off because there is a problem I don’t like. I have had to cordon off a small are of my garden but I tell you this robot mower doesn’t accept no for an answer. When it comes up against an obstacle from an angle (not head on as that seems ok) it repeatedly tries to edge its way into the obstacle, not once, not twice, but 5 times but 7 or more times it repeatedly turns towards the obstacle trying to get past, churning up the ground as the wheel spins and damaging the paintwork of the robot and scratching along the obstacle as it doesn’t give up. This is a really annoying flaw in the software and needs to be fixed. Maybe try once or twice but at that point, TURN AWAY from the obstacle and get on with mowing please. When Worx fix this I’ll reinstate the 5 stars but for now I need to reseed the area of the grass that it’s messed up.Just a short review to say that this robot mower is fantastic. Main points: Setting up is easy although laying the boundary wire takes time if you have lots of corners and obstacles etc. It took me quite a few hours to get it inch perfect. Bear in mind that there will be a couple of inches at the edge of a wall or obstacle that the mower won’t reach but a little manual trimming each week is a price worth paying for the convenience of not having to mow the main lawn. You’ll want to be sending the mower out pretty much every day so as to keep the lawn neat. Yes the mower mows randomly but honestly this isn’t a problem. The only thing is that occasionally it misses a clump of grass but tends to pick this up the next time it moves. The mower can definitely mow longer grass but you won’t want it to because the blades left behind sit on top of the grass. Instead, you’ll want the mower to be mowing once a day or every other day so that it cuts off tiny pieces which fall to the roots and mulch quickly. These little grass cuttings are not sticking to shoes or ending up in the house. Having no grass clippings to get rid of is brilliant! The best part about this mower is that you end up just sitting there watching it go about its routine, very therapeutic. Also the grass has never looked better, the weeds don’t appear to get a chance to pop up as they get hacked back every day. I did lay a new lawn with good quality seed so that probably helped but I’m convinced that this mower will keep it looking good. You do tend to get a wheel track line around the edge after it’s done its edge routine and you do get vague cross cross patterns in the grass where the wheels have been but actually it looks quite a nice effect. The app is really simple to use although if you pick the mower up and put it back on the station manually (happened a lot at the beginning when I was testing the wire placement) you get an annoying ‘wire missing’ error, and I recall it being a bit of a random fix to get rid of that message. The mower deals with slopes well and easily gets itself out of a sticky situation. Sometimes the wheels spin a little while turning on a slope but again it tends to sort itself out. After having the mower for a few weeks I would highly recommend getting one. Not sure what went wrong in my life to new get so excited about watching grass grow and then being cut by a plastic machine but there you go. 5 stars from me.
