Title: You must buy this mower

If we all buy them, the price must drop, surely?

I've seen the smaller robotic lawn mowers in action - very weird when you walk past a garden and this little mower is just mowing the lawn by itself. That was in Switzerland though, land of money and no crime. Not sure how long it would last over here.....

Wouldnt last long here either. We had a little fir tree stolen from the front garden when I went off to college for a few weeks. It had only been planted a few weeks itself.

A nice toy for a half acre rough lawn if you have potfulls of loot.
I can just see me dealing with my 2 acres of lawn studeed with islands of trees, three ponds as reed bed systems, the stream running through it and the free-ranging chickens, the paths and soft fruit and espaliers... A lifetime of prgramming and running after the thing refuelling.
And as for 15 acres of rough steep pasture with bracken and weed trees and some variable boggy bits...

No good to me today unless it can swim ! Storms all day and our lawn is under water.
