I had a lot more time to enjoy my summer thanks to Segway’s Navimow i110N robot lawnmower.
Is saving three hours per week worth the $1,299 investment?
Read on to see how its features hold up and where it stands among the best robot lawnmowers.
This docking station must be placed near a power outlet to charge the mower.
Pressing the OK button powers on the mower while holding it down turns it off.
A front-facing camera adds a visual aid to spot boundaries and obstacles.
There is an AI helper that had no problem finding the edges along my flower beds and walkway.
I still recommend creating this initial barrier by hand if your yard is sloped or has a fence.
I found this totally worth it as the bot followed this guideline with pinpoint accuracy.
Each zone can be named independently and customized for different mowing directions and schedules.
Its razor-thin blades wont mulch up leaves, which meant I had to rake them once cooler weather arrived.
With a standard mower, I can shred through those without worry.
The mower effortlessly straddled the boundary when working to make precise cuts near the edges.
It took the mower around 5 hours to cover a 700-square-foot yard.
Thats definitely on the slower side when I can have that space done in half that time by hand.
I was also impressed that there were never any divots in the dirt.
The sole issue I came across occurred when it fell into the street while I was away from home.
Im not crazy about the anti-theft features requiring a separate purchase LTE data module and plan for tracking.
