You can remove the steel guard for the blades. This will make it less likely to get stuck. Another thing to try is to put some weight in the back of it, about 2lbs. But in general Landroids are known to get stuck a lot due to the wrong balance (being too front/middle heavy so their wheels don’t get enough traction). If you want to spend some additional money you can buy spikes for the wheels or all terrain wheels from worx.
If you could do it all over again. .Would you move the boundary wire out farther?So, it wouldn't have any problems with the edge. then, once every other week , you could just take the mower and cut around the whole areas edges.
In most areas, yes, I would have moved the boundary wire a little farther inward than what they suggested. I ended up moving it in several areas anyway. Now that I know how the mower will respond to certain situations, setting up another one would be much easier.
Great review. That is the most ideal scenario for a "dumb" robot mower and the tracks are a low point. You could bite the bullet and grab a gps based unit. I am thinking Navimow, i105e
Can the Worx mow up a 60 % incline? How much does a replacement cc event battery Cost and how long does a battery last? Can we unplug the mower during the summer or winter without damaging the battery? about 60%
I believe Worx says it is rated for a 40% incline, but I would say the mower would handle 60, unless maybe if the grass was wet or too uneven. As far as the batter goes, it comes with the mower and I've been mowing with the same one for 3 seasons now. I'm not sure what you are referring to by the "CC event battery"? The mower can be unplugged without damage. Hopefully that answers your question
What battery are you using? You can put an 8ah in to get longest run time per charge and the heavier battery adds weight to the rear wheels for better traction.

Thanks for the info'! I may try removing the blade guard. I never really considered it. I just installed the wheel spikes two days ago (video coming).
I would love to hear about the spikes working. And also the blade guards
I do believe the wheel spikes help quite a bit. Hardly ever gets stuck anymore.

Thank you. My goal is to buy two or three different robotic mowers and have them maintaining different sections for comparison.
Very educational thank you
Glad it was helpful!

Off with the cover and Mount Bosch indigo blades
I will definitely check them out.
What perimeter wire are you using.
Just the basic perimeter wire that came with Landroid.
Most of your problems seem to be pretty petty. Not saying they aren`t valid but never having to cut your grass is a pretty big benifit.
Absolutely. I would absolutely do it all over again. Just pointing out shortcomings and things I would change.

I'm using a 6Ah. When it dies I will try that and go with a 8Ah. Thanks for the input!
u cut too short
I will consider the input.
