NEVER Mow Your Yard Again! The Mammotion Luba 5000 Robotic Lawnmower
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2023
- In this video I show you the Mammotion Luba 5000 Robotic Lawnmower. It is a fairly new robotic lawnmower capable of mowing yards up to 1.25 acres and doesn't need any wires for it to know where to go. Usually I don't like to spoil how well a product works but it has worked extremely well. I put it through the wringer and truly put its capabilities to the test.
Full Disclosure: I thought this was an extremely cool mower so I reached out to Mammotion to send me one to put it to the test and show you all the results. I am not being paid for the video and all of the thoughts and opinions are my own.

Would love to see a 6 or 12 month follow up video on how the mower is holding up at that time.
A solar charger would be a good addition for areas that are away from street power. We use solar powered electric fencing which paid for itself immediately because we didn’t need to run power to the pasture.
What a great video, reviewing new technology and get a neat looking lawn to boot.
Awesome! Thank you for sharing this information. My old Craftsman mower broke down recently and the parts are on back ordered status so I’m needing a new mower for sure. I’m in Florida and the grass is out of control!😂
Excellent video.
Great Mower, but a bit pricey for my blood. Enjoyed the video!
Today while mowing in the 99 degree Florida heat I kept thinking I sure wish I had one of these bad boys. Great video!
Yup. I’m in Florida too so I totally get it. Which is why I wanted one of these so much. This is the hottest summer that I can remember. Just day after day. I just keep reminding myself we are getting closer to fall to where it’s still hot but it’s not hot hot 😂
Super cool
I've been waiting for this review of the Mammotion Luba. I really want to invest in a robotic mower. I can't physically be in any great heat. In the past 10 years, I've gone through 5 lawn crews for various reasons. It's such a MAJOR stressing point when spring comes around if my current crew is going to advise me they've gone out of business or an individual just disappears on me over the winter. I am adding this unit to my research spreadsheet for consideration. Thank you so much for an AWESOME review and video!! Excellent job.
Hi Quickdraw. A random note from New Zealand. We fought and battled with robot mowers trying to get them to mow a big, steep lawn in Auckland. After six months of trying we finally had to give up and refund the money! Very painful! In the past week or so we unpacked a Luba 5000 and in the depth of winter it nailed the entire property. We talking incredibly steep slopes, soaked ground/mud (in places) and well over an acre. What is amazing is seeing rolling lawns and steep hills all mowed in perfectly straight lines. It can also handle very long and tough grass. There are a few limitations with RPK signal sometimes, but apart from that this appears to be incredibly good tech. We are robot retailers and video people and, yes, we will be selling Luba 'down-under' in future. Happy robot hunting.
Obviously the people complaining about the price haven’t checked the price of a decent zero turn in the last ten years. Time is money and that savings would be worth it all. Money is replaceable but we can never get back the time spent mowing.
How accurate is the GPS.
My front property line runs on the street with a curb. Is there much of a worry you would go over the curb and do damage?
Love your videos
These things are pretty cool, but I actually find mowing sanative - even in this heat.
Hey, I understand. I don’t mind the mowing itself, in fact I sometimes do my best thinking while mowing, but I would be lying if I said I would rather be out mowing in this heat every week like I always have. But I do understand. Not for everybody. Appreciate the comment.
I completely agree with you. In 2023 it’s hard to get away from every screen and luxury of my home. Getting outside in the heat is a nice change. Good thinking time and a reset
Mowing is great, but doing it every 2-3days to maintain healthy turf gets annoying planning around “I gotta mow sometime today again”
@@Fishneck102-3 days? Are these golf greens?
We mow 1x a week.
Luckily only 20 weeks in NY but even the FL and CA relatives do it 1x a week year round.
Great! I’ll give you mine!
How about a Robotic Weed Eater?
Using a weed eater is my pet peeve 4 sure
Another great post as always!
Would definitely love one of those! I too am not a fan of weed eating!
I go through weed eaters like you won't believe. I am in Africa and am tired of lawns. I have been slowly but surely started paving and leaving small sections open for slow growing plants. This is an amazing gadget but my Jack Russell Terrier will destroy it. I know someone is going to leave the gate open and then...
@@hennies9509 Lol better believe it; U R Wise!
have a great day; thanks 4 the fellowship!

Several years ago I paid someone to mow my lawn for an entire year due to surgeries (at the time I was single, with a half-acre lot). At $2,800 this might have been a cost effective option - I can’t remember what I paid over the course of a year, but it seems like it was pretty close. But I still would have had to pay someone to trim the edges, so it wouldn’t have been a 100% payback in the first year.
I enjoy mowing.
Put on a podcast get left alone for a few hours.
Nobody asking you to do anything else.
When your done you can look back and feel accomplished at what you did that day.
Cool, good timing. I've been thinking about a robot mower. It would probably be stolen off my lawn before even completing its first cut, though, so I'm not sure it is right for me. Sitting outside to watch it so that it doesn't get stolen seems like no solution...if I'm going to do that, I might as well just mow the lawn. Also, a height max of 2.75 is too low IMHO. 3 inches is my preferred setting.

Big jug of lemonade.
You're set.
Were the grass clippings addressed ? Vacuumed ? Raked ? Blown ? Atomized ? just curious. Is the Luba second to the WOLFE…the laser cutting lawnmower ?
.my property has some uphill and downward grades how would it handle them
Interesting
Awesome video and great looking mower! I was reading some documentation on it recently but I couldn’t find out if it alligator damage is covered under the warranty. Would you happen to know?
You don’t have to worry about that. In all of the durability testing the only thing able to damage the Luba was Chuck Norris. 😂
😂
Luba is now being sold in Australia, which is salty-croc territory, so I'm sure it will be fine. I'm sure AI reptilian recognition will be added in future versions and the drive motors reprogrammed to 30mph in emergencies should do the rest. We're from down-under and have tested it successfully herding sheep. Very versatile. LOL.
Did you have to get the update that allows you mow 10,000 sq meters? I have been hearing that it's either already available or it will be. I'm buying a 3.15 acre piece of property and I'm pretty sure the grass portion is more than 1.25 acres, but if the 5000 can now mow 10,000 sq meters, well, that would mean 2.5 acres, which I suspect will work just fine for me, especially as my property has a big slope to it, so I'm gonna need the 4WD. Good video. Thanks. I was already subbed, so no need to do it again.
I call mowing grass a good workout.
Can you setup station in your garage?
We often mistake change for progress.
The fact I have not had to mow my yard once in this ridiculous heat we have had the past couple of months, I would call that progress.
I am wondering how this would work in Florida with St. Augustine that we have here. It is a tough grass.
I have Bahia and in another part of my yard is St Augustine grass. I think it handles the st Augustine grass even better than the Bahia. Probably due to the broader leaves.
Never heard anyone refer to St. Augustine as a tough grass.
I'm on the fence about buying one. There must be more than four motors. If there is one for each wheel, then how many more for the rotors and the height adjust? Elsewhere, a reviewer went from enthusiastic to sour when one of the wheel control arm broke after allegedly dropping the front from 12 inches. A commentor said one of the motors stopped working. It's not that which concerns me as much as the support so far. I would buy one now if it had the name Ego, Toro or some other well established company making it. I'm wondering if Ego has one in the works for next spring. I have a couple of their products so have several batteries.
I LOVE the Ego brand. I have all their products with exception of a mower. This one has my attention.
Would it work on moist grass?
It works but just like a regular mower, it won’t be as good and the deck will start accumulating grass that will need cleaned out.
I love mowing my lawn. Imo i dont see why people see it as an immense chore.
Because the feels like right now is 115 degrees and we have to do it at least weekly or have a mini jungle by the second or third week. The mowing itself is actually somewhat enjoyable outside of that.
@@HowToHomeDIY i agree, might also depend on how you unwind. I consider it “me time!” Lol
Totally get that! Even though it’s loud, in some ways it can feel quiet at the same time, especially mentally.
Does the stickers make it go faster?
Maybe less drag. 😂
Seen several robotic type mowers. Then those that had them have them no more. Theft. Unless it is stationed somewhere not seen by public it could get stolen. Also removed from front yard while in use Here is my robotic grass cutter. Works on round or square yards. Drive metal stake in center of yard. A line to self propelled mower. Start furthest outside. Let it go. Sitting in shade drinking my favorite beverage. Or check the mower periodically. Eventually will know how long it takes. 😊LOL
I'm curious on the height of the cut,i think you said 1 to ? inch max..I cut my lawn at 3- 4 inches minimum because i like flush lawns not spotted eroded laws.
Yeah I prefer not having snakes, ticks, and a bunch of other things in my yard.
@@HowToHomeDIY ...The defensive mentality hu?..just asking a question dude that's all don't get so up tight I'm sure in the future those robots will raise the heights to adjust to higher cut lawns it's all about the consumer sells for money..🙄.
Not defensive, I don’t own any stock in the company. I was just stating that if I did that then I would have all of that in my yard. That is all. But a lawn can be full and cut lower than mine. Depends on the maintenance and type of grass.
That thing is awesome though 😂😂😂
Fast forward 10 years and the battery stops recharging. I purchased my 5000 today and this is my last question. I hear the battery is not accessible to change. Nor is a replacement battery available for sale. So is Luba dead when the battery stops recharging?
Can you train it to wash itself?
That would be awesome! Could send it out in the rain though 😂
Yeah, the remote control lawnmowers. Oh man there they’re good but the thing is the old man you don’t live on farm acreage we do so we always prefer the gas mowers a lot more better and tractors as well not electric ones.
They need to a camera on it , with a phone link. Let me know if someone is taking it and a speaker so I can freak out the neighbors.
Does it come with a lifetime warranty! 😂 $,$$$ just a little bit!
Not a lifetime warranty. Compared to a low end riding mower this is right in line with that. The difference though is that I don’t have to ride it! Frees up some more time on the weekend that I now can spend with my family.
I got 5 acres will it cut it
Currently it can manage up to 1.25 acres.
How big is your lot?
I keep an acre mowed.
@@HowToHomeDIY I also have an acre
It’s cheaper then my last riding mower.
Whenever my rider dies I think I’m getting one of those.
Do you have any idea of the life expectancy of the mower?
I'd recommend backyards only on urban areas unless you want this thing getting lifted & regifted
Well I guess you can steal anything but it would be a paper weight. It has an anti theft feature that if someone takes it, you will get an alert on your phone and since it uses gps, it will show you exactly where it is. On top of that it will lock down and only the users account that is registered with it will be able to unlock it.
@@HowToHomeDIY Yes, but no, 😆. The phone alert is not working and the gps either, but none will be able to use it because it needs your phone. You can easely stick a GPS tag on it 👍
Urban areas?
With the highest density thieves??
Watch the Ring camera thieves.
Did Mammotion give it to you to test and return or did they give it to you to test and keep?
How much
$2799.$$
...my backyard will certainly test the slope capabilities of the 5000, but what about trees? That part of my yard has mature trees covering it...amazing that grass grows at all...I wonder if trees interfere with the GPS signal?
So yes there probably will be some interference. That is where the RTK comes in. It will help guide the mower when the mower itself can’t get good signal. In those areas it will slow down or even stop periodically due to it trying to retrieve its coordinates but I’ve never had mine stop completely for a long period of time below my big oak trees.
I live in a rural area and have some serious slopes... Luba is a beast in terms of power and handles the slopes and potholes my dogs dig. Each wheel has its own built-in motor... this unit does have some serious torque and it can handle some serious slopes. The front of my house has 3 large trees in the middle of my lawn and several up front. Luba has no issues with these trees. On the right side of my house, I have a very large apple tree with a lot of coverage and next to that tree is a wall of very high brush... Luba does go slow and even stops here and there... but ultimately gets through it.
Can one one set it to
“Beast Mode” if one lives in a soft-on-criminals region?
What kind of alarm does it give if someone tries to make off with it?
Haha I have not seen a beast mode. I suppose anything can be stolen but it would be a glorified paperweight if stolen. It has anti theft mechanisms in it. If it detects being picked up and taken out of the yard you will get an alert on your phone. It will then also transmit it's GPS coordinates. Also, it will be locked up and the only way to unlock it is with the true owner's account on their phone. So While anything can be taken, this would be worthless to steal.
@@HowToHomeDIY
Excellent intel, thanks!
@@HowToHomeDIY I'm sorry... I have the Luba 5000... had it for a couple of months and I love it. But I can tell you... it will not alert you if it's picked up and carried away and it certainly won't transmit it's GPS coordinates! Your correct that if its stolen, it will be useless to the person stealing it because it's bound to the RTK antenna that came with it and your account when you set it up. I love my Luba and I'm not very concerned in my area about it being stolen... but if I did live in an area where that is an issue, I would certainly be concerned. Many people who have the Luba have found unique ways to protect it using Apple or Android tags. Some people have even added dog tracking GPS units to it. But there is no real anti-theft protection for the Luba today and it doesn't push notifications if someone walks off it with it! There is a connector in the back of the Luba to add LTE ... but we now know that it's an empty slot so it will NEVER have LTE for tracking.
I am just passing on what Mammotion advertises. I would think they would not be able to make those claims if they aren’t true. The air tags are a good idea.
@@HowToHomeDIY _"I would think they would not be able to make those claims if they aren’t true."_ Don't get me wrong... I do love my Luba and I have no regrets buying it. I think it's a fantastic robot... but they're a Chinese company, what can someone in the Western world do when they make claims that aren't true? Buyer beware!
Adding a spreader on the back would be a cool idea. Just put your weed and feed or other stuff in the feeder and let it run.
Now that’s a good idea!
@@HowToHomeDIY You should give the company the feedback for it. You could test it out for them. I have to add some weed and feed to my yard that I have been putting off. Seeing your video and the idea just popped in my head.
while the mower is cool, it would have to mow for several days to get my yard. I could see it mowing my in-laws yard in the city would be cool.
So, how many $ have you spent all together on the mower?
No thank. We refuse to buy any electric mower. What does ot cost to replace those batteried
That's a bunch of money for 8 razor blades. 😂
It’s a little more than that. For me it frees up time to do other things. And how does the old saying go? Time is money!
Curious...what does the maintenence schedule look like?
I have the Luba 5000... had it for 3 months now. It's electric so there is no oil or anything like that. But it does require cleaning as the grass cuttings build ups under the unit and the small razor size blades. I need to spend 10 to 15 minutes about once every two or three weeks to clean up the unit. Tip the unit to the side, use low pressure hose to rinse and some minor scrapping. My blades are still in good shape, but I might replace them anyway... there are 8 of them in total. They cost about .50 cents each and takes about 10 minutes in total to replace all of them. I'm in the Eastern part of the country so after the summer, I will take in my unit and store it in the garage. That's about it.
Really it takes jobs away from people and it’s probably 2 grand for it
Because that's what Americans need! To be sitting in the house more 🙄🙄🙄🙄
hire a lawn man or get a teenager who wants some extra cash
Yeah, get a dad burn teenager that’s willing to work for some extra coin!
Chinese product made in One Ball Hung Low Country!
STOP trying to sell us this BS!!
If you don’t want it, don’t buy it. It’s pretty simple. But if I find something cool like this I’m going to share it. So request denied!

This is surely for people who could care less for baby bunnies or any other small animal that gets in its way. Some things are best not being invented for lazy people.
What are you talking about? It has safety sensors on it. And almost every animals natural defense mechanism is to run away. All this has cut in the months I’ve had is weeds and grass.
