Tools and Hardware Reviews of Friendly Robotics RL1000 RoboMower 21-Inch Automatic Cordless Electric Lawn Mower and Docking Station

Customer Review: Very pleased so far.
Summary: 4 Stars

I got this guy off-season and got him set up, running through multiple "shake-down cruises." Very few problems so far; a bit of a learning curve in setting up the perimeter, etc. But, jeez-o-pete, is he ever so cool! I may design and build a home for him, to simplify the winter storage process, but I can't wait until spring so I can truly turn him loose and see how well he performs in real life.

The docs are accurate, though a bit sparse, so far. There is a growing community of dedicated users more than happy to share their thoughts and experiences, which is a huge asset.

I wish I knew how to build a body-mod for him so he would look like the chomping turtle on the Flintstones!

A very positive experience so far.

Automatic Lawnmower Does All the Work for You
Designed for lawns measuring from 12,900 to 17,200 square feet, the Robomow RL1000 is an automatic lawnmower that cuts grass all by itself. The RL1000 mows on its own within a boundary that you outline with a thin wire (included).

Once you handle the initial wire setup, all you have to do is schedule a weekly program, and sit back, relax, and mow! The Robomow RL1000 will depart from its Base Station on your chosen days and times, and it will enter your lawn from as many as four preselected points.

When it's done mowing, the Robomow RL1000 will return to the Base Station for charging until the next scheduled operation. With this mower, you can be your lawn will be maintained, even when you're busy or away from home.

User-Friendly Features for a Beautiful Lawn
The Robomow RL1000 is packed with great features, including an exclusive drop-and-go 24-volt battery that lets the mower operate for four hours on a single charge. It also offers on-board charging, an LCD operating panel, a theft-deterrent system, and a docking station for true automation.

To keep your lawn looking beautiful, the RL1000 features knobby wheels that tackle high grass and sloping or bumpy ground, touch-sensitive bumpers, and triple chamber mulching. Easy to set, its 21-inch deck delivers a 1.75- to 3.25-inch height of cut with the high-cut blades and 1.0- to 2.5-inch cut with the low-cut blades. Additionally, the Robomow RL1000 has an edge mode and manual-trim mode for creating a manicured look.

Weatherproof Plastic-and-Steel Construction
Boasting heavy-duty plastic-and-steel construction, this fully weatherproof, all-season unit is UV protected and comes equipped with a rain sensor that will prevent the Robomow RL1000 from coming out of its docking station and mowing during a rain shower. And if it starts raining when the unit is mowing, the RL1000 will immediately return to the docking station.

Eco-Friendly, Wallet-Friendly Choice
Unlike conventional lawn mowers that pollute as much as 40 late-model cars in just one hour of use, Robomow RL1000 offers a way to keep your lawn looking great without sacrificing the environment.

The Robomow RL1000 doesn't simply cut your grass--it repurposes the clippings through a patented process called grasscycling. The mower cuts grass into fine clippings and disperses the cuttings over the ground. These clippings quickly decompose and release valuable nutrients and water into the soil, resulting in a better-looking lawn. Grasscycling also leads to a deeper, healthier root system that increases your lawn's resistance to disease, drought, and insects, and it reduces the amount of water your lawn needs by as much as 85%.

And because the eco-friendly Robomow RL1000 doesn't require gas, oil, tune-ups, or spark plugs, it will save you money.

Dimensions and Warranty Information
The RL1000 measures 26.0 x 12.5 x 35.0 inches (WxHxD), weighs 50 pounds (without battery), and comes with a two-year warranty on the unit and a one-year warranty on the battery.
