"Who wants to be mowing the lawn when you could be lollygagging in a hammock with a cold drink, watching a robot mower do it for you? That's right: no one does. Lawn care is a monotonous, thankless task. Robot lawn mowers were once the preserve of the wealthy, and they can still be on the pricey side, but they're getting cheaper and better all the time."
"Perhaps counterintuitively, the setup instructions for your robot lawn mower will likely tell you to start by cutting the grass. Robot mowers mostly can't deal with long grass. Unlike traditional mowers, these robots don't collect grass cuttings; they mulch instead, and they are designed to cut frequently, keeping your lawn short and simply leaving the cuttings on the ground, which can also improve lawn health."
Robot lawn mowers offer an automated alternative to manual mowing by cutting frequently and mulching clippings rather than collecting them. Many models are becoming more affordable and more capable, though some remain pricey. Initial setup often requires cutting long grass because most robot mowers cannot handle tall growth. Regular, frequent runs—typically two or three times per week during the growing season—keep lawns short and can improve lawn health. These machines run on rechargeable batteries with runtimes ranging from about half an hour to several hours, depending on the model and conditions.
