Today robotic lawnmowers are becoming more and more common in homes. It is an artifact gadget that allows you to give a “unique touch” to the garden.
Reduce work hours by cutting grass easily, quickly and safely. Its operation is carried out by means of an electric battery and has a wiring that controls the cutting height through it. If you want to know a little more about robotic lawnmowers , stay until the end of the post!
Characteristics of a robotic lawnmower
Here we discuss the main characteristics of a robotic lawnmower , although you can also investigate a little more (Here you can see analysis of models) .
1- Size
Limit the amount of activity the artifact can do. Obviously a larger one will cut much faster than a small one.
2- Blades
They indicate the surface to be cut, for example, the thick blades are designed for large gardens and irregular surfaces of approximately 1200m2, while those slightly smaller and thinner are designed to cut the grass in small gardens.
3- Batteries
For this type of appliance, a lithium ion battery is ideal. It is relevant to mention that currently everyone has one, thus allowing the work to be carried out in a short period of time and with wonderful results.
4- Noise
The size of the blades says present again, since if they are thin, the noise generated when cutting the grass will be “minimal”, in fact they do not exceed 60 decibels, otherwise it happens with thick blades.
5- Programming
This being a relatively “new” feature. Some robotic lawnmowers allow synchronization with the smartphone, making work even easier, since it is possible to indicate mowing hours and more. It is worth mentioning that this will depend on the brand of the instrument since only some offer their own app.
6- Security
Many have an advanced system , one of the most important sub-characteristics being: the base on which the machine rests, since both have been designed in such a way that if the device is lowered from the base, it will not be able to execute the court, action what makes you face theft or loss.
Advantages and disadvantages of a robotic lawnmower
Advantage of robotic lawnmowers
1- The hours of work when mowing the lawn decrease drastically, you can spend 4 to 2 hours, and all without making any effort.
2- Its size does not generate great inconvenience, robotic lawnmowers tend to be small, perfect for storing in tight spaces, in addition to a smaller size of the structure, smaller size of blades, therefore, less noise
3- By using it and using a cut periodically, it allows the lawn to grow much brighter, considering that the operation of many is based on cutting each grass and not starting it like the old lawnmowers.
4- The cutting remains become part of the compost, this thanks to the work of the blades.
5- It is becoming easier to use, the installation only takes 5 minutes.
Disadvantages of robotic lawnmowers
1- The maintenance must be carried out by a specialist in the field, in case of moving even one piece it can mean total damage to the equipment.
2- They are products with high demand in the market, which implies a high price , however as time passes and more, and more products are created, existing ones tend to decrease in value.
