Thanks for watching! Now that I have more time for projects, what do you want to see next?
The object detection test was flawed.
You should re-test that but with a stationary object in its path, not random objects falling right in front of the camera.
Hope it comes to Australia.
NO DISASSEMBLE!
LOL!
No disassemble!😂 I love that short circuit reference lmao. I'm 20 and I love that movie lol
Nice! Glad to hear you’ve been introduced to some 80’s culture!
@@FrugalRepair haha ya! I grew up with everything 80's and 90's I'm my house including the movies😂
I personally just planted a few trees and replaced grass with a moss garden after 5 years but this thing is cool too
Many people are already complaining that getting a good signal for the mower is very hard. If you've got even one tree on your property, people are saying on Amazon they're having issues getting a lock. They're also saying that the front wheels get sticks stuck in them. Just an fyi.
How would it do in a patch of grass that has several loose sticks of various sizes?
Really like the sweeper. But I heard you can't mow and sweep at the same time. :^(
Since it is guided by satellite, wouldn't it always cut exactly the same path, thus leaving wheel paths in the lawn?
A larger version of this would be more effective, I think. You'd also think that razor blades would wear out pretty quick cutting grass with twigs in its path, leaves and other debris. I'd be interested to know how often do you have to change the blades. Is there a height adjustment or fixed cutting length of the cut grass? My property also has a road in front with a length of 120 feet or so. I hope this doesn't run out into the road and cause a traffic accident. What about that danger? Lastly, I can't see the point in the grass catcher attachment as you'd have to babysit the mower a lot. In my situation, that grass/leaf bag would fill up in 20 seconds or less with all the trees I have.
A bigger version would mean a bigger battery, etc. maybe they will come out with one. I haven’t had it long enough to know how long the blades last. If you have the path set and don’t move the antenna, it should stick to it. The leaf collection bag is something you’d just need to plan to empty regularly (assuming it’s cleaning regularly). So maybe not what you want if you have tons of leaves. I think for a smaller yard like mine it will work well.
@@FrugalRepair Thanks for your reply.
It doesn’t have to be bigger because your not pushing it and the only reason to have bigger mower is to go back and forth less times also those “ razor “ blades are hard carbon steel the blades on your mower are mild steel the difference is huge so the blades should be ok also smaller blades are cheaper to ship so buying replacements would be easier
@@Justthemow Okay, gotcha. I have about an acre and a half of lawn to cut on a 3.5 acre lot. The rest is used for crop growing. That's why I was hoping for a bigger version of the one you showed. I'm in the market for a new lawn tractor when I stumbled across your video of this electric mower. I'm still considering it just so I don't have to do the job. I certainly like the concept of what it does and how it works. They put a lot of thought into making this. I was happy to see the anti-theft part built into the system. That's a great selling point. Thanks again for posting more info to my response. Have a good day.
I got one of these and sent it right back when I saw those blades.
I have a Worx's and it took me a long time to set the wires up. I do like this one But the prices is high . I live in a community of 220 home and people stop to talk to me about one and I tell them that you need to install a wire and they do not like that. Sometime I need to move the wire and that I do not like. This one has a 10cut and the one I have will cut 8'' A friend ones me to install one for him. My son took over my building CO and I WAS TELLING HIM ABOUT This.
How does go in thick lawn?
They should have in mind that robot that people use are in 99% cases mowing same yard, so maybe mapping instead of seeing would be more convenient. No need to have complex vision system like cars
@ecoflow, you need to get an articulating deck to solve this not a firmware update.
I do have one question when it does go thru the pass way, is it still cutting the grass?
No, the mowing doesn’t turn on until it gets into the mowing zone.
Wish I had that as a kid
Is the app/software local, or does it have to go out to a central server somewhere? I'd hate to have something happen to such a device as what is going on with the Amazon Halo.
Johnny 5 stayin alive
Love the video! I have been watching for these to be available since I saw the CES videos in January. I ordered one and it is arriving this week. So awesome you got to try one out. I have some hills so hoping it can handle my terrain as well. I realize this is an extravagant expense but I love gadgets and set aside some cash for it.
Thanks for watching. Hope you like it!
Same here I’m debating on buying one as my work week schedule makes it impossible to cut my grass especially my hours working & being a truck driver away from home. Just worried as my lawn has many tree obstacles and steep inclines
Did you get yours? How does it handle inclines? I am thinking about getting one but I have a lump in my garden.
@@Soak007, it is arriving today so I'll hopefully have an update in a few days.
@@Soak007, it arrived yesterday and so far I am impressed with what it can handle. I have a 14 degree slope. The wheels essentially have cleats on them and it handles hills and bumps well. It does tear up the grass when it is trying to turn on hills. There is some learning to do with the mapping and I have had to do it 3 times and likely will have to do it again. I'm hoping they will take suggestions and update the software.
Can it travel across the driveway to other areas to mow? I have out .7 acres to mow.
You would probably want to create a path so it could travel across the driveway. Right now it supports two mowing zones and then one path between them. They plan to add support for more zones in a firmware/app update.
It seems like something that you would have run once a day rather than when you lawn "really needs it".
Agreed, I think it’s design is to be a yard maintainer.
The coupon does not work in Europe :-(
I’ll have to ask and get back to you. I thought it did.
I was able to get a coupon but I can’t post it publicly so if you wanted you can send me an email I can send it to you. (My email is on the About page or on my website)
Who's Johnny?
This will not work if you have curbs or trees. Also, the omniwheels in the front make it zigzag.
It's cool, but it's not $2900 cool. Yikes.
Unless you have a huge property, doesn't take long to mow a lawn!
Being what regular lawn mowers cost, even if I had a lot of money, I wouldn't spend more than $200 over what a regular mower costs!
We are lazy
Just a toy
Lazy people 😂😂😂
Why the hate? Some ppl don’t have time I work 70+ hours a week and am a truck driver & am gone away from home for very long periods. Instead of being negative understand not everyone lives like you or anyone else comes home everyday & works only 6-8hr shifts.
this thing can abolished lawn slavery
@@MrVelasquezsame. I do get to come home almost every week, but the drive home is brutal after a few 12h night shift clusters and I'm dead to the world for 1 day to recover, and I try not to fall asleep on the road). I'm not spending my days home suffering through cut grass. 😂 (allergies suck man)
If you have the money for it, why not? I was gonna get another GPU, but this finally came out, so I ordered it. Can't wait for it to arrive. Hopefully it's while I'm home...😅
Does the separate antenna need to be in the line of sight of the mower at all times?
I don’t think so because the mower can go to the front yard and the antenna is in the back yard. The house would be blocking it. I think it could be an issue if the communication was blocked or there was interference. I asked ecoflow to put an advanced option in the App so you could see signal strength data. I found that it’s hard to know where the best antenna location should be when there are trees and houses around.
Hey, We are ONWOTE, a manufacturer of PoE and Wireless Security Camera Systems. Do you plan to install a security camera to protect the safety around you? Now, we are looking for partners to install and review our camera system, so any chance for us? I had emailed you the details of the sponsorship. Hope can get your reply and move forward!
Wow that was expensive. We in Sweden often buy cheaper variants for about 400-600 dollars, or those who want a slightly more advanced one, it will be a husqvarna :)
Do you have any models you can recommend? I know Europe is leaps and bounds above Americans w the robot mower curve so please tell me what to get
@@HeavyHoggJP Yeah we have so many but i have this one Lyfco E1800 WiFi . cheap and works great :)
@@Nikpet3D you have to set up a perimeter wire for that, those are much cheaper here. This one uses GPS.
@@BobbieStump OK yes GPS is alot more expensive
One day it will mow down the masses....... "The Terminator Lawnmower"
I think once they add lasers, I'm out.
$2,600 and you need to have it cut the lawn 3x and still not perfect!? That is a fail!
Too many $!
The point of an autonomous mower is that it's supposed to constantly be mowing. So if it did it great after three times, then when it is continuously mowing and cutting only a little bit, it should do exactly what it's supposed to do and keep a well manicured lawn.
Is it possible to install the antena on the shed/small garage to improve te Signal ? Is it has to mounted on the ground?
I am eager to try this myself. But I did ask Ecoflow and they said that yes, it can help if the antenna is getting a better view of the sky. But you have to make sure it doesn’t move.
Especially with the world the way it is today $$ wise, even in great times, how many people are spending $2,600 on a lawn mower!? 😱
I will lol I don’t have time to cut my lawn. I’m not rich either but I can’t have my lawn super long & the rest of my neighbors have their grass cut it’s embarrassing with my busy work schedule
@@MrVelasquez then you higher a lawn service like many people do to take care of the lawn leaves etc! This thing isn't worth it!! And for $2,600, as he showed in the video, he had it cut the lawn 3x and it still wasn't as well cut as it would be by a human! AND the unknown, how long it would last and how much it would cost to repair!! Just making excuses!! I know plenty of people with their busy lives who have no time and still cut their own lawn or get it done some other way cheaper than this option!
I mean... if I got a lawn mower, it would be a riding lawn mower. Those are a couple thousand dollars and run off gas. Plus now I can mow the lawn and not have to take allergy medicine. I was going to get a good respirator mask to not inhale the grass because my allergies are bad. I ordered one of these instead of the riding mower. I already have lidar robot vacuums, so one for outside is my next step. Can't wait for it to come in the mail. I love technology. I was looking out for this since I saw it announced. Love the lack of guide wires. My neighborhood is safe, so I shouldn't have any thefts. Plus I have cameras all over outside my house. The thief would be caught red handed. My lot is 1.68 acres, but a big chunk of that (more than half) is woods... plus my house sits on it taking up space too. I don't think my yard is too big.
@@AliciaBrownSugar and again, he had to mow it 3x and still wasn't perfect! To each their own, I would never do it!
@@smadas4192 congrats everyone has a strategy behind it & not everyone has time if it can cut majority decent for some that’s good enough and they can spend a few minutes touching it up instead of hours they don’t have…..why are ppl so stubborn.
Hey man. Great channel. Thanks for all the tips you give out! I was wondering if you could just give me a direction on how to fix my tv. it's a 55 inch 4k tv bought 2 years ago, everything was fine until one small red line showed up vertically on the right side of the screen. Repair cost from Sony is huge so i'm looking for other alternatives. I'd appreciate any feedback!
Nice review, thank you! Do you maybe know if this will work outside of the USA?
Thanks! I don’t know where you live but yes, it would work outside of the US. It is for sale in Europe at least.
@@FrugalRepair ok, thanks. Will give it a try soon 👍
If you email me and tell me your country, I can see if I can get you a discount coupon. Email is on the about page or my website
Very nice! One thing you didn't cover is determining where it will cut. That seems like a challenging process. How was it for you?
Thanks! Maybe I’m misunderstanding, I showed how you drive it around while walking behind it to create the boundary for the mowing area.
@@FrugalRepair You're right, I missed it the first time. Just got mine going, it's awesome!
Johnny Number 5!
Nice idea, but I throw that in the category of being lazy!
Can you tell it to mow different directions?
I don’t think with the current version of the app that you can tell it what direction to mow in.
To me it seems they are not made for heavy duty jobs. Where I live I have 1 acre but the grass is super thick and grows really fast and it don't look robust enough but I could be wrong. Why don't they make them the same size base as a push mower? Or do they. I think that would work so much better. What do you think?
I'll pass. I enjoy mowing the lawn. Gets me outside to enjoy the weather and it doesn't take that long. Price point is a problem.
I'm sure it's expensive so why would you leave it in the rain!?
i've been waiting for this tech for some times, i hate grass with a passion. grass is a true symbol of historical and modern day slavery, i've been a slave for my yard while suffering with severe allergy for years. since last week this mower emancipated me from my lawn, the slave master.
You know, you could just kill off your lawn, then plant pachysandra if you hate lawns so much, right? 😂😂😂
Hopefully Number 5 won't short circuit. Be careful with lightning storms.
Funny!
_"Eh, I think your lawnmower's wheels are broken"_
just toe, camber is good
Hire me, I will cut your lawn 1x a week for $100, what a bargain!
I cut twice a week, takes me 1h each cut or 2h once a week. I spend 4 h cutting grass a month, the cost to pay someone will be easy 400 a month. This machine is perfect for bigger lawns and pays off in 2 years max.
@@MKD04 sorry, no! $2,600 is way too much! And what about break downs and repairs!? And what's the lifespan!? Spend enormous amount of money to be lazy!
If you have the money to spend to be lazy, why not? I work overnight and pretty far away from home and would rather not set off my allergies on the days I'm actually home. I can't go outside without a mask while lawns are being mowed without having an allergic reaction (still have one, but not as bad with a mask). Now I can make it work overnight and I'd get to enjoy my yard when I'm off rather than being stuck inside avoiding my lawn like the plague. I was considering getting a riding mower (my yard is huge, hopefully the mower can do it all...) and wearing Goggles and a respirator to mow the lawn. But I'd probably bring grass back in the house with me on my clothes... At least here I dont have to deal with the freshly cut grass. I moved down south and my allergies are way worse here. I used to be able to get away with skipping days I didn't go outside... not anymore.
