Same! Not sure if we'll get enough snow this year to really put it through its paces, but will definitely update with what we see!

I don't get large quantities of snow at once in my area generally, but will continue to update as I get to test things with it! My yard is quite a challenge, so I have been tinkering with settings in an attempt to optimize its travel path between zones. Got a few inches of snow last night that I was able to give it some tests on and get some snippets of video up!

I can understand your feeling behind it. I've had a Worx Landroid since 2019 which has freed up my Saturdays from mowing for years now. I get to use that free time and money saved for other things. I also like gadgets, and promoting attempts at growing technology. So I get enjoyment out of it either way. But 100% get not wanting to deal with the hassle they can be, or weighing the benefits vs. cost on your own setup! The cost now vs. what was on kickstarter is MUCH higher as of now, so It wouldn't be viable even for me at that cost!

What’s the name of your lawn mowing company? Also what brand calculator do you use?

@@ccf310 I use my brain, you should try it. My yard at most needs mowed once a week for 24 weeks. At $40 a week for 24 weeks, that’s $960 a year. 10 years that only $9,600, which is a $399 saving over the $9,999 price of the mower 3-1 that only has a 2 year warranty. A kid offers me $20 to do my chores, that’s only $24,000 over 100 years, I’ll be generous and say the mower 3-1 will outlive its 2 year warranty and it’ll last 5 years. In 10 years that means he’ll have to have purchased 2, bringing it to 20,000. Considering the upkeep of the unit, it’s pretty generous to say that in those 10 years it’ll need atleast 4k in repairs, bringing that estimate to 24,000. So again. I’d rather pay a company for 10 years, or a kid down the road for 100 years 🤣.

Wow that is an excessively long explanation about how hurt you are that there are robotic lawn mowers in the world now, you seem to like a real long drawn out response so let’s get to it. I guess you’re right I should use my brain. I know my lawn at most needs (to be), see used my brain there, mowed (a) minimum of once a week unless it is unusually dry. This past year was average for the amount of mowing that needed (to be), brain thing again, mowed which i spent about $400.00 just in gas alone for running the mower, so over ten years that’s $4000.00, but you probably got that, math seems to be your strong point. I paid $3399.00 for my Yarbo on Kickstarter, mainly to alleviate, hopefully some of the 3 hours, minimum, a week i spend mowing the lawn. More numbers here, your specialty. I bought my first Xmark new with a Briggs and Stratton that only lasted 400 hours for $6000.00, bought a used Exmark with a liquid cooled Kawasaki for $3000.00. This does not include any money that it cost for the Simplicity and Yard man tractors before the Exmark’s, or for belts, filters, oil, blades, ignition coils, batteries, trickle chargers etc… to keep them working, excludes labor, even without using my brain I can fix them, what a crazy world right. It would cost me a minimum of $150.00 a week to have it professionally mowed, I will leave the math up to you on that one. Hope this helps you wrap your head around why someone would do something this stupid, well it probably makes sense to you now but with me not using my brain and all, well you know. P.S. Send me the info for the kid who offers $20 to do your chores, maybe he’s better at numbers too. That might change my mind.

@@ccf310 wow took you a month to come up with that? 🤣 say less, you’re embarrassing yourself.
