Robot Lawnmowers (lemmy.world)

Does anyone have much experience with robot lawnmowers? I've been considering one, but trying to find info now involves digging through a lot of AI slop.

Id prefer one that plays nicely with HA, as well as not internet dependant. It's also for a small garden (50m²).

The best bet I've seen so far is to modify a yardforce mower with open mower. What other (good) options are there?

I use a Mammotion Mini for my backyard which I got at a pretty big discount during Memorial Day sales. I don't have HA, but it seems there's some work going on for integration: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/mammotion-luba-integration/604662/63.

It does require internet access though, and I put it in my isolated guest vlan to be safe. I haven't tried running it without an internet connection yet. Obviously this doesn't meet all your requirements, but I can at least attest that the mower itself is pretty good. Good luck on your search!
