No Time To Mow The Lawn? - This Little Guy Will Do It By Itself At A Price

8th March 2015

Robomow Is A Cut Above for UK Lawns.

There is now a new way to take the sting out of this seasonal chore and still have the best kept lawn. Already popular on mainland Europe (one of the fastest growing categories of garden product), robotic lawnmower sales are on the rise in the UK as these smart lawnmowers are being adopted by the green-fingered and the gardening averse.

Robomow is one of the leading brands of robotic lawnmowers in the world, providing a large range of models, six in total, designed for almost every size of garden, and with a new model launched for 2015. Designed with a special Turbo Mow feature, they can sail through the first cut of the season, including high grass areas. A unique edging mode cuts beyond the wheels of the mower and the powerful mulching system means that there are no clippings to collect

Once installed, Robomow mowers automatically cut the lawn regularly according to a schedule it sets itself but with a built-in rain sensor will work around the inevitable spring showers. Alternatively, the Robomow App allows owners to take full control of the mower, setting it to return to the base station, times to cut and status updates on charging and cuts.

During the early months of the year, a little and often approach is best for your lawn, therefore ideal for the way Robomow works. Robomow ventures out at pre-set intervals mowing your lawn regularly, a random mowing pattern each time ensures a clean cut when the grass grows.

The powerful mulching system on Robomow mowers mean there is no grass box to empty, as cuttings are shredded into miniscule pieces before being spread at the roots of the lawn, where they return valuable water and nutrients to the soil. This helps growth and restore your lawn to best it can be for those summer BBQs you have planned.

John Hall is Managing Director of Mower Magic, the UK distributor of Robomow: "Robomow's exceptional performance, low running costs and easy maintenance, allows owners to have a more relaxed approach towards lawn care. For those that haven’t cut their lawn all winter it may look like its seen better days. Robomow will set to work transforming it back to its former glory. All models can cope with virtually any terrain, slopes up to 20˚ and with debris such as twigs and leaves littering the lawn. With the edging mode and new power wheels addition, it can power through long grass and cover the whole lawn."

Robomow enjoyed its best ever UK sales in 2014 - increasing by 136% during the peak period from March (the start of the lawn mowing season), compared to the same period in 2013. Indications are that this upward sales trend will continue in 2015.

The Robomow range is available from selected dealers nationwide and online from John Lewis and Maplin. Please visit www.robomow.com/en-UK/wheretobuy for further information. Prices start at £999 for the RC304 model perfect for those small urban gardens of up to 400 square metres.
