Good offroad cutting abilities, good cut, good customer service. No complains

I've had the mower for one season of mowing my 2 acre property. I love this kind of technology and typically try them when they are available. I purchased it through Amazon for the easy return process incase it didn't work out.Setup was easy and the mower works really well. The only downside, like others have said, is the time it takes to mow. It take 12 hours. With a large property the mower has to run almost everyday when the grass is growing fast.Otherwise I have no complaints and the property looks great.Support ExperienceAt the very end of the season the battery stopped charging. I contacted support and they responded right away and helped trouble shoot the problem. When it could not be resolved they sent me info on how to send it to them to look at. Before I send it I was able to borrow a friends docking station and it worked. I let support know and instead of me having to shipped everything back to them, they just sent me a replacement dock.The service I had couldn't have been better.

Llevo siguiendo Luba desde su lanzamiento en Kickstarter, tan esperar que llegase a España, lo hizo por fin en 2024, pero la inminente salida de Luba2 espere y por fin está aquí en casa.🏡 ¿Por qué Luba?Tracción a las cuatro ruedas, mi jardín no es un campo de golf, con unas pendientes de un porcentaje muy elevado. Para que os hagáis una idea, vi fracasar robots Husqvarna Sthil y Honda aquí mismo en persona, sencillamente patinaban incluso en seco.🦾 Una bestiaAquí son unos 1700m2 de hierba, con hoyos, malas hierbas, pendiente (lo recalco porque la parte de atrás del jardín es elevadisima).El Luba2 es brutal, va para delante siempre, taludes incluidos, no es decirlo, es verlo.🏃🏻‍♂️‍➡️rendimientoUn corte fino, ideal para que el césped mantenga óptima salud, dejando un dibujo de corte en la hierba con el diseño que elijas, tu propio jardín parece el mismísimo Santiago Bernabéu.Batería 🔋Obte por comprar el modelo 5000 para mi jardín, con el 3000 era suficiente pero con el de 5000 va menos veces al cargador y teniendo en cuenta la pendiente (mayor consumo) era la mejor opción.Con dos cargas jardín listo en una tarde sin mover un dedo.🔧instalación:Cualquier distribuidor cobra 200 euros. Os los ahorráis mirando el tutorial del fabricante. Es tan sencillo que un niño lo puede hacer. Sin cables por supuesto.👨‍🔧mantenimientoLimpiarlo tras uso. Yo recomiendo no sacarlo a trabajar cuando llueve, el trabajará perfecto, pero una vez acabe la tierra y hierba estará muy adherida y en cantidad. En otras palabras, pasaréis más tiempo limpiando. A mi no me queda otra que soy del norte.Lo que realmente tienes que pensar es que limpiarlo en 10 tras quedar todo tu jardín con un corte profesional norte tiene precio (bueno si😂)🫀problemasPor ahora he tenido un problema de fallo de conexión con la base de carga, el robot de un día para otro dejó de encender. Contacte con el servicio técnico a través de la propia app y me respondieron en 5min. Me sugirieron varias pruebas y tras hacerlas me dijeron de enviarlo a reparar. Como soy un manitas anduve haciendo un par de pruebas y conseguí solucionarlo. Después actualización de software y a seguir trabajando.✔️ la pregunta¿Lo comprarías otra vez?SIN DUDARLOLuba2 es un producto excepcional

Each of us in the household has had an area of grass they were responsible for mowing... because our property is a challenge. I've been looking at robomowers off and on for a few years, thinking even if I could just get something to do my small easy patch of fenced-in dog yard, it would make MY life easier. But then Luba 2 came along with no required perimeter wires and advertised being able to handle steep slopes with its AWD and Omni wheels. I proposed the idea to the roommates and they didn't seem convinced. But I said, "Well, I'm getting one, and we'll see how it does. At the worst, I can get my part done, and maybe a bulk of some of the other parts so it's less work for everybody."Once it arrived, it of course took unpackaging, setup, figuring out the app, and the usual. As others have stated, figuring out how to set up boundaries and not cut too close to the edges was the first challenge, but after that, you start figuring it out without a problem. So, the learning curve is an unavoidable part of the process, but I didn't think it was overly difficult. In fact, since the neighbor was interested in learning about it, I just let his kid drive it around like an RC car while we talked. So, it's easy enough to figure out.Once we got it set up, Luba2 has been able to tackle the entire property, and I can monitor from my phone or ipad set up on my desk next to my computer while I work all day. (I do work from home though, so if there's a problem, I can go check on it). In general though, despite all the challenges, it rarely gets into problems it can't work its way out of. Vining brambles (wild raspberries) can sometimes be a problem with the omniwheels, but it seems it's not getting caught in the vines so much as that area is steep and loose anyway, and the vines don't do it any favors, so it is doing its best to get out, but the vines hold it fast, it reads that its tires are spinning and it's not changing position, so pauses and tells you to check on it. But sometimes just manually controlling from a 2nd floor window gets it loose and you can hit continue. The point is, it really doesn't have any issues if you deal with the brambles or teach it to go around and not through them... (so it's user laziness/error in this case, not the Luba's fault. Luba makes a great effort!)Luba's not great in the dark, even though some people say you can set it to work at night. I suspect this is because the RTK station turns off at 6pm. [Edit: it just turns the light off the RTK and still works. The issue at night is the usual 'gets stuck in the edges' problems it has during the day... so if you tell it to simply mow the middle part without the perimeter, it can get the bulk of the open area done overnight without and issue]. As long as it's got view of the satellites, it can handle big open spaces in the dark. It's super quiet (you never hear it even when it's right outside your window working), and you can have a normal-volume conversation right in front of where it's working (and get drowned out by the traditional mower down the street, but not Luba). It sounds like a really quiet strimmer/weed-whacker, but even with that, it doesn't have all the engine noise.It also doubles as property surveillance while it's working. One day, I saw someone walking around our property and was wondering who it was—apparently a tree guy looking for a chainsaw he thought he left behind the day before. But his presence didn't even set the dog off. But watching Luba work at my desk, I saw him.Super-fine clippings mulch the soil without blocking light to the roots, and our poor-quality grass has improved 10-fold in just the month we've had it.I can't even describe how much Luba has improved our lawn, inspired us to do more than 'keep up' with the landscaping (we're actually planning/doing things now that we know the lawn is taken care of), and we have time and flexibility to do things we didn't before! We've been here for 17 years now, and we're getting older, and the lawncare has always been a challenge."Professionals" would just come in, scalp the lawn with no regards for its health, collect a paycheck and leave. We've tried, but due to time, heat, or other constraints, have been able to do little but keep after it in a rudimentary sense. But now... with Luba, we have options and hope where we didn't before.Luba will help with house resale when the time comes, surely, as we got the house cheap when nobody would look twice at the daunting task it would be to mow the steep lawns. But Luba is proving it's not only doable but automatable and convenient. The neighbors have always been 'jealous' of the open space we have to work with, but I'm not sure they appreciate the difficulty of maintaining it. So showing off our beautiful "highland sheep hill" while making it easy will surely help our resale value in the long run.Watching Luba work from my desktop is oddly relaxing, and it makes the whole experience... 'fun'? I'm actually inspired to wake up early to open the gate and check how damp the grass is so I can send Luba out working.The rain sensor does work, and the time it takes to evaporate/dry is also a gauge for how wet your grass is. The neighbor's sprinklers at the edge of the property have set it off though, so if you have sprinklers, time your mowing accordingly. But in actual rainfall, the sensors work great. YouTubers have done a lot of cutting of wet grass, but I haven't. I do periodically check the cutting blades to make sure everything's loose and moving freely, and it surprisingly doesn't get anything gummed or jammed up if you mow dry. Check them after 'bushwhacking' through really high weeds/grass though, as this obviously is not a normal use-case, and you can get some jammed and it'll keep the blades spinning. But with normal usage under dry conditions, there's really no need to check the undercarriage (though I do occasionally out of curiosity).All the advanced positioning stuff works great and seemingly improves the more it does the yard, so maybe there's some AI in there. I have noticed when weeds are particularly large and Luba comes up to them, it slows down, must do some sort of analysis as to what it is, and then decides it's a weed and drives over it. Spots I've forgotten to 'no-go-zone' like the mailbox post, well-head, or leech-field vent, it bumps into them and goes around. It will damage saplings, but the one I'm thinking of is wild and we just haven't gotten around to cutting it down yet, so we don't care... but if you have fragile bark, you may want to train Luba to go around trees, even if it'll bump into them and go around.The other day the recycle truck dumped the empty bin on its side in the lawn, and Luba just mowed around it. (So, it deals with unexpected stuff too).Problems? It doesn't do wire fencing well. It doesn't 'see' it, and the bumper can get caught up in it. There's also a bale of the stuff that it will push around either not seeing it as a solid object or because it rolls it's not triggering the bumper. In any case, if you have wire fencing, you'll need to give it some space so it doesn't get caught up in it. Other than that... I can't think of a single challenge it hasn't overcome.Re: PhotosIt's always hard to capture how ridiculous this hill in the backyard is in photos. But trust me, it's pretty dang steep. (Use the house and trees to see the level and tilt head accordingly). It's impossible to mow with a ride-on because it's a serious roll-risk, and the walk-behind slips the entire time and you're walking sideways. It's a nightmare for anything with a high center of gravity, and I'm not even sure a low-slung zero-turn would be safe on it. But Luba cuts through it like a champion sheep, and is not threatened by the coyotes in the surrounding woods. (Or the ticks or mosquitoes or deer-flies or...)Recommendation: YES!

Suite à une panne, j’ai contacté le SAV, et ils ont été incroyables : pièces de rechange envoyées à leurs frais et reçues très rapidement. Le robot fonctionne à merveille, et leur service client est au top. Je recommande vivement cette marque pour la qualité de ses produits et son professionnalisme. 👌

There’s an area of our property that has quite a steep hill. I was extremely impressed. On wet grass, it had no problem at all and this was a hill I could barely walk up. I have over an acre of grass. It did an incredible job. I truly can’t wait until spring. I will be purchasing a second machine for my parents home. As for customer service, they have been a pleasure to deal with great company. Thank you for a great experience.
