I don’t care what anyone says, I reckon that this new Electrolux AutoMower robot is the ugliest contraption launched in a long while. The naff hospital green colour and massive black plastic wheels don’t help, do they? What a shame.

‘The control display is also very simply designed and works just like a mobile phone. You can make settings to match your individual needs. For example, you can set the time of day that you would like the Automower to go to work.’
