The “WORX Landroid Vision” is an AI-powered robot lawnmower that promises to make the task of mowing the lawn hassle-free. Despite some initial technical hiccups during setup and the need for the machine to be fully charged before use, the machine eventually functioned as desired. The lawnmower utilizes features like mapping to determine the boundaries of the area it needs to mow and can navigate accurately if the user sets out magnetic green strips that come with the machine.
However, the reviewer points out that the Landroid struggles with cutting long weeds and avoiding areas with overhanging leaves – one needs to do a bit of preparation before deploying the Landroid. The reviewer also mentions that if the front and back yards are separate, it would be necessary to move the charging port each time one needs to switch yards, thus proving to be a little inconvenient. Another potential problem identified is that the charging port needs to be plugged into an external electrical point, which might not always be feasible.
In terms of its efficacy, the Landroid is quiet and can be programmed to mow the lawn at any time without causing noise disturbances. It may not replace professional gardeners since it is meant for mowing only, but it can replace the traditional home mower.
On the whole, the reviewer recommends the WORX Landroid Vision despite a few drawbacks, given its functionality and the convenience it offers. It eliminates the need for physical exertion in mowing a lawn and can save money in the long run, considering the details of the mathematical calculations provided in the review. However, the reviewer advises potential buyers to consider their yard layout, the availability of an external power source, the possibility of the Landroid escaping to a neighbor’s yard, and the preparatory work needed for the machine to function optimally. Despite these considerations, the Landroid can be a worthwhile investment for those seeking a hands-off approach to lawn maintenance.
