LawnMaster OcuMow™ Perimeter Wire Free Robot Lawn Mower Cuts Small Lawns 1000-2000 Square Feet with Optical Navigation, Obstacle Avoidance, Low Noise and No Go Function

I needed a robot mower for my home in Singapore, to mow a small front yard, right around 1000 sq ft. I didn't want a mower that I needed to park (and charge while) on the lawn, and I also didn't want a guidewire leading from my large patio to the front yard. Here in Singapore, it's not really necessary to mow a lawn more than 1-2 a month, so just keeping it in my storage shed would suffice. This Ocumow is the most basic one, sometimes referred to as the VBRM601YCM, and also sometimes referred to as the "200 Series" robot mower. It works very well, for what it is supposed to do. I put it on the grass, hit a few buttons, and it randomly criss-crosses across my yard. The mowing height is very reliable. I set it at 2" and it is giving a great uniform cut. The only sound coming out of it is the blades cutting the grass; it is extremely whisper-quiet. The first time I ran the robot, it had to tackle some very tall grass, around 7" tall. I wouldn't recommend expecting it to tackle that, but mine managed to charge through over some time. When tackling that kind of tall grass, the fully charged battery ran out in about 3 hours. But as is mentioned in reviews online, when this robot mower is just maintaining your yard, and doesn't have to tackle tall grass, the battery can last for 4.5 to 5 hours on a single charge. I have owned this robot mower now for just a few weeks, but it appears to be very durable. The only comment I've read online is that some say that I may need to replace the blades after a year or so of use. The robot mower came with the grass trimmer, which is definitely good enough. This combo comes with 2 batteries, and the batteries charge pretty quickly, and fit really easily into both the machines. If you are in Singapore, and are tired of mowing your lawn in hot and humid weather, this is a good package to pick up from this Amazon listing.

The mower gets the job done, albeit at a slow pace. It's not the most efficient in terms of speed, but it eventually covers the entire yard. One downside is that it cuts in a seemingly random order, moving at its own pace rather than following a systematic path. This mower isn't suitable for heavy-duty tasks or dealing with high grass. It struggles with thicker patches, so you'll need to keep the lawn relatively short for it to be effective. Another limitation is that it doesn't handle edges or small areas well. You'll still need to manually trim around the edges, the mailbox, and other tight spots. On the positive side, it navigates around the yard quite well and can run for hours at a time, ensuring that most of the lawn gets mowed without much intervention. It's especially convenient for people with fenced-in yards, as it can operate within a confined area without escaping. However, the mower should come with more magnetic wires to help with boundary setting and navigation. This would enhance its usability and efficiency. Overall, it's a pretty cool gadget. While it has its limitations, it's a good option for maintaining a yard with minimal effort, provided you keep up with manual trimming and don't expect it to tackle heavy-duty mowing tasks.

We have had robotic vacuums at home since 2003. First one was a Roomba and now we have two Shark robotic vacuums. One is 5 years old, the newer one is 1.5 years old. Both doing a very good job. It's true that picking up dirt is not the same as cutting grass, but we never expected such a poor performance from this LawnMaster. It is so slow that it's almost nerve racking. The worst part is it cuts practically nothing and leaves nasty streaks all over. It arrived yesterday and it's being returned today

So here are my favorite features: 1. Great price in this category. 2. Effective at mowing. 3. Battery life is good; capable of doing at least the 1,000 sq ft that the mfr claims. 4. Super quiet. Least favorite features: 1. Mows with a Roomba-style random pattern. Goes til it finds and obstacle, then reorients itself (randomly?) and continues in another direction. 2. Could do better at obstacle detection. It has "run away" between shrubs and into woods that it should have stopped for. Also will nudge an obstacle and sometimes push its way through. Needs a solid obstacle in order to stay within the desired bounds. 3. Kind of slow, but that's not a big deal since it runs on its own. Would I recommend it? YES. Especially for a hilly or uneven lawn that other robo mowers (like my much more expensive Segway) can't climb. The LawnMaster has a LOT of torque on its drive wheels, and climbs over pretty much anything it needs to. Got stuck when it went off-lawn and once when a drain cover caused the wheels to ride up off the ground. Otherwise, it's a monster for getting around. Cutting is pretty good, but of course limited by the semi-random travel pattern. It's a random pattern of straight lines across your lawn. It would have been nice to have a battery that charges IN the mower, vs. taking battery out of the mower, putting it in a charger, then replacing it in the mower when it's charged. But that's not the biggest deal, and it's made up for by the darn good price. I'd give this machine a try. I'm using it alongside a Segway, which has lots of bells and whistles but can't climb the portion of my lawn where I need more power on the drive wheels to get up the hill. No auto programming, no auto return, no mapping of the lawn to make an efficient set of passes over the grass. But it's under $500, so not much reason to skip it.

Update: This robot uses the same blades as the WORX lawn mower robot. This is exactly what I need. I don't need those fancy so-called "smart" robots with complex setups and app services that may upload my privacy to servers in who known which country. I just need a simple-to-operate rebot that can mow the lawn, and this one that costs only a few hundred dollars has met my requirements perfectly. I also found that this robot can actually mow lawns that are quite tall. It just takes more time and more battery( or charge cycles). I might provide further reviews after this summer's use. In any case, the use of last week has already saved me a lot of time!

really good item . This frees our hands up for do other things and u can got a beautiful garden.

Although it is slow it does the job.Was very sceptical at first but it surprised me how well it did.The battery does last 3 hours as advertised.No boundary wires, just push start.It navigated around almost everything without any edging but you need to try it to see where it goes before it gets stuck.Trimming around outside is needed but they tell you that.

The actual mower is great, however after just a few weeks the blades are done. They give you one more set, however after that you just cant buy them. Lawn Master hasnt had them for months now, and nothing generic fits. Lawn master dont respond to any emails. Horrible after care. Now I cant use this thing at all. This little guy mows your lawn no problem. Its extremely simple to use. No apps or no go lines to be installed. Just start it up, grab a beer, and watch this guy do all the hard work for you.

L’article pas trop bon, laisse des plaques de gazon non coupées partout.
