The rather strange looking Robby Garden XP automatic electric lawnmower runs for 4 hours on a charge, features 4 wheel drive and a clever grass sensor to detect edges and obstructions, and mulches the grass into fertilizer as it cuts – yay, no more raking up. It’s also pretty quiet for a lawn mower, with just a 72dB hum in use. Just set it down and pop off for a cup of tea. Lovely. €1,559.00.

The operation of the Garden Robby XP is very simple: One button turns the robot on and off, another starts and pauses the mowing. With the help of the practical handles can the 7.9 kilo light Robby Garden XP take it easy, when touched, the robot immediately stops the blade. The powerful lithium battery of the Wiper flash is easily manually connected to the mains.
