I Replaced My Lawn Guy With A Robot Mower (Mammotion Luba 2)

Mammotion Luba 2 (affiliate discount link) 👉 mikeobrienmedia.com/RobotMower So what do you think? Would you ever replace your lawn mower or lawn care provider with a robo mower

I don't have a lawn; why am I watching this video? Anyway, nice review

I bought the 1000 model initially. The area coverage prediction is the only thing I have an issue with. My lawn is 220sqm and it couldn't quite complete that without a recharge. Although the customer service was helpful it appears that the area claimed is very optimistic. Whilst it doesn't matter that it takes longer to complete by including a recharge, I decided to upgrade to the 3000 model. They accepted a return and refund with a free return using FedEx so no complaints with customer service. If they had been a little more realistic about the coverage capability to each model I would have gone for the 3000 model straightaway. Remember to keep the packaging as it is very necessary should you need to return it. Overall a brilliant product. My lawn has never looked better. PS. Refund paid within 4 days of pickup by FedEx so very good customer service.

Wow! Possibly the best reviewer I have seen on YouTube. Mike has the rare talent to explain his thought process concisely and in a authentic manner. The Luba 2 review was terrific. So many questions I have thought were addressed in a direct and comprehensive manner. I am close to purchasing a robot mower. There seems to have been an burst of mowers that have come to market in the past 12 months. I'm anticipating a shake out both in quality and pricing within the next 1-2 years. This is a huge market waiting to explode. The company that gets just a little bit better can own this market. It seems there are a couple good contenders.

Comprehensive review, thanks. I've been waiting for the Luba2 - think this has made my mind up.

Just bought one as our ride on needed replaced , hopefully works well 🤞🏻 for cost of fuel, maintenance vs time saved its a no brainer if you have a large lawn

I've been using the first gen for 2+ months. Set up is tedious but once it's done, it works really well. I fired the landscape company since they destroyed my grass with the 800 Lbs zero turn mowers. Sod does not tolerate compaction... Yard maintenance companies are hugely incompetent in my experience. This allows you to fire them.

I have the Luba 1. I could never get it working effectively last summer, but after lots of software updates and moving my RTK it’s a lil champ this season so far.

Got a Gardena 750 at the end of last year… best time saver and lets me look after the rest better 😊

How much tree coverage do you have? With the original Luba, they recommended a pretty open lawn, but with the camera on the 2 i heard it handles the overhead cover better, and so far this is what I'm waiting to hear since i have a few bigger trees

This was a super great video describing the lawnmower. I currently have a word landroid. It sounds like a combination of an edge wire and the lubo to get a really tight edge.. I like being able to adjust the edge by moving the wire and it lets me have a tight boundary, to stop the need to line trim.

Great review, thanks. The one thing it lacks, is the ability to mark an area, in an area, for it to mow. Most robot vacuums have this feature, but not the Mammotion Luba. The blades also jam and you have to spend a lot of time freeing them up.

Thank you for this great review. I have a large property with lots of steep hills and tree cover and two separate lawns. This could be a huge time saver for me, but I am concerned about signal coverage. Can you have multiple RTK units for one Luba? I am debating purchasing their largest units, or two smaller ones (one for each lawn) or waiting another year.

Is the deck of this mower made of metal or plastic. I was wondering about the longevity of the mower. And how much are the replacement blades?

Can you use this if you are out of town? ie does the app on the phone and the mower need Sri be in the same place?

What are the exact dimensions out of the box? Need to know if fits in a big luggage

This is the successor to my venerated "Yard-2 D2" (Worx Landroid) that served me fairly well for over 3 years. As soon as this hit the market, I bought it, and I can say it is better in every way. That old perimeter wire was the bane of my existence. Mine probably had 20 patches in it between utility workers digging and neighbors' mowers and even animals digging etc. Plus it took me almost a full day to install. Once I got the base station up, this took me less than an hour to "train." It almost never gets stuck where my old 2wd landroid would lose traction and just dig with the wheels until the battery died. Since I could only run the old perimeter wire through expansion joints in my driveway it left a large portion unusable for myself and guests, lest the dumb thing gets stuck under a car and run over. Now I designate a narrow corridor for it to cross the driveway, freeing it up for its intended use. Pattern mowing is a game changer. Its not some dumb random pattern that eventually catches everything. It's properly mowed and looks the part. While not perfect, I can't see anything wrong with my Luba2 "C-3P-Mow" that can't be fixed in software. Very pleased with mine

This thing is cool. An irobot for your lawn.

6:35 Those blades appear to be reversable, so after a few months then they're blunt, unscrew and turn them around and you have a new sharp blade again. I have the same on my Moebot mower (which of course I named Moe!). Most robot mowers absolutely can run at night. If yours isn't returning home properly then it sounds like something is wrong, either software or maybe the mapping setup. The Moebot is priced from AUD $1000-1200 (USD 640-770) depending on the battery you choose which is based on the size of your yard (6,400-27,000 sq feet). Edges are more accurate with the boundary wire but you still have to whipper-snapper the last few inches if there's a vertical wall etc, tho if you have a garden or concrete you can avoid that. These last for years - so long as they're looked after. There's no oiling etc but you will need to change the blades at least annually. Mine runs daily in summer and weekly in winter and is into its 4th year.

That's a big lawn! How do u empty the mower?
