WORXLandroid M 20V Robotic Lawn Mower 1/4 Acre / 10,890 Sq. Ft Power Share- WR147 (Battery & Charger Included)

Install went well. Set mower on my perfectly manicured 3 inch tall lawn and pressed start. The mower began cutting the grass, but very low at 2 inches. I adjusted the mower to the highest cut setting but no change in cut height. I contacted customer support and they apologized and said I'd need to ship the unit to them. They offered to cover postage and agreed to send me the information in an email. 1 week later I have not received the postage slip so contact them again. " We'll get that to you today or tomorrow". 1 week later and no postage so I call again. I learn that getting international postage ( repair center is in north Carolina) takes a long time ( 2 +weeks!?). I also learn that repairs can take 21+ days before my unit is returned to me.At this point, I've owned the unit for 2.5 weeks and all I have to show for it is a ridiculous pattern scalped into my lawn.Not impressed.I decided to return this defective unit and receive a refund.This seller DOES NOT fully reimburse you for returned shipping. For me, shipping a 50 lb box to Mississauga was$90. The seller offered to reimburse me $3.99.What a scam.All in all, I wasted my time with this mower, it's support staff and I lost $87 for the privilege.If the seller wants to make this right and refund me my $87, I'll amend this post to reflect the.CANADIAN BUYERS BEWARE.

The media could not be loaded. It has been a learning curve of several days on setting up the boundaries so the Landroid will successfully cut the grass without incident. The Best advice I can give everyone, is to keep the "Boundary Wire 11 inches from anything & everything including curbs, flowerbed boarders, stairs, the wheel barrel, & everything else. In order for the Landroid to find its way to the charging station, it centers itself in the MIDDLE of the boundary wire, & follows it all the way back to the Charging Station.The second important thing, is MAKE SURE there is 3 Feet of perfectly straight boundary wire leading back to the charging station. Any less than this....it will over-shoot the station & not charge.!Lastly, programming of times & days is easiest by using the app on your phone.!Insofar as its ability to cut the grass, it does a very good job & no complaints there. Schedule it for 3 days a week, for 2 hours each of those days...and your lawn will look just fine!!

I travel for work a lot, always come home to the backyard overgrown and needing a cut. My old lawnmower struggled due to the lawn being too long because I am away all week. I bought this Landdroid hoping I would be hands off and get some time back while I am home to do other projects. Set it up in 1-2 hrs and a few adjustments to some obstacles in my yard and it has been going hard for last 3 months! The yard is always cut and the lawn hasn't looked better in years because it is never overgrown. IF you want to get 5+ hours per month of your life back to do other stuff then mow a lawn, I highly recommend the Landroid

I use to work for a robotics company. We made driverless fork trucks and other autonomous vehicles. They drove around within various factories, manufacturing, and large newspaper facilities. So I've got a lot of historical experience with this type of technology just on a much larger scale.My mowing area is .25 to .4 acre yard (actually larger than the WR147 is rated for). I'm in a northern climate and prefer to cut my grass long. One reason I bought this is because it supports a 4" cut, though I'm setting it closer to 3". We're in our growing season again and after two weeks, it's been handling the yard well and I'm quite happy.Before my purchase, I was highly skeptical of the ability of the device to handle my yard. I have some slopes on the edges of the property, an apple tree, and lots of bushes and obstacles. I bought the base unit WR147 without any options. I have no ACS ultrasound vision, and no magnetic barriers. Out of the box I was very impressed. I had the unit operational within about 2 hours after delivery and yes I ran the border wire TWICE :). Upon starting, the robot even navigated over fallen apples. I wouldn't recommend leaving all of the fallen apples on the ground, but it did manage them. WOW!My only issues have been self-inflicted. I have a construction project going on and some areas of the yard are just dirt. The robot will occasionally get stuck if it needs to turn in the dirt. It tends to dig into the dirt during a turn and get stuck. In a normal grass yard this will not be an issue and none of these issues are the fault of the unit, but mentioned so you know it will do fine in normal grass but any areas where you may have exposed dirt could present a problem. Once my lawn grows back this problem will be resolved and is not negative for the robot. For all other obstacles, apples, sticks, bushes etc, it's handled them very very well. I also have some small nooks and corners, it has a TRAP escape mode and it works amazingly well to get in an out of these tight spaces.I also liked that it is Bluetooth and WiFi based, I didn't want a cellular connected device. It will work without WiFi but is nice to grab the phone and see its status. It has lost connection to the WiFI a few times while at the charging station and I've had to go wake it up or reset it. It's well within range of the WiFI Access Point so it is definitely something about the unit or a compatibility with my WiFi. FYI one of my day job duties is installing WiFi in hotels, schools, and large offices. So I know my WiFi is okay since I'm using enterprise devices not he typical consumer level devices.The App and configuration is a little confusing, it could be more streamlined. A technology challenged person may have some trouble, but it does indeed work well once setup.One suggestion to the designers: It doesn't seem to have an inertia sensors. So it doesn't know when it's not moving. I've found it in my dirt areas spinning its wheels but not going anywhere. Again it is my fault for the yard condition but if it had some inertia sensors and logic then it could detect that it was stuck. I also think adding a compass (if it doesn't have one) might help it learn the basic geometry of some yards without the GPS option.Lastly I really like the al-a-cart aspect. I like that I'm not forced to buy things I don't want. It kept the cost down and allows the consumer to buy the extra features we want. In my case I think I'll be buying the ACS Vision system, but even without it I'm very very happy.Last words.. Buy it. I threw a challenging yard at it and it surpassed my expectations.

this machine is fine. and setup was ok. ran the mower and it got stuck and the battery died. would not recharge. customer service couldn't help fix the dud battery, but they tracked down and shipped out a new one. will update this review when/if it arrives.the app, although improved as of late, is still kind of clunky and quite often gives the 'command cannot send' error (or whatever it says) when trying to control robot.overall a decent device so far, again will update when new battery arrives and i can actually use it more than once.
