Verdict

Pros & cons

Der ANTHBOT M5 ist ein drahtloser Mähroboter mit RTK und zwei Kameras, der schnell eingerichtet ist und in geordneten Bahnen mäht, auch durch Durchgänge ab 65 cm und an Hängen bis 45 %. Am besten passt er zu offenen Gärten bis etwa 300 m². Der Haken: Eine Ladung reicht nur für rund 40 min Mähzeit, und ohne Trimmer bleibt ein Randstreifen.

Pros

  • Kein Begrenzungsdraht, Station und RTK-Antenne stehen in etwa 20 min
  • Mäht in geraden Bahnen und lässt dabei keine Flächen aus
  • Kommt durch Durchgänge ab etwa 65 cm, auch im Schatten
  • Schafft 45 % Steigung bergauf und bergab
  • Weicht Baumstämmen, Abbruchkanten und der Igel-Attrappe zuverlässig aus
  • Schnitthöhe per App zwischen 30 und 70 mm, für jede Zone getrennt

Cons

  • Nur rund 40 min Mähzeit je Ladung, 500 m² dauern etwa 8 Stunden
  • Kein Kantenschneider, an Beeten bleiben 10 bis 40 cm stehen
  • Überfährt Schläuche, Werkzeug und Kinderschuhe
  • Aussetzer: Mähwerk setzt aus, Station nicht gefunden, Karten nach dem Ausstecken weg
  • App meldet Störungen nicht per Push und speichert kein Fahrtprotokoll

Der Dreame A2 1200 ist ein drahtloser Mähroboter mit LiDAR und KI-Kamera, der auf festem, ebenem Rasen zuverlässig in geraden Bahnen mäht. Der EdgeMaster bringt ihn auf unter 5 cm an die Kante, schneidet dort aber immer auf 3 cm. Für weiche Hänge und verwinkelte Gärten taugt er wenig, dort fährt er sich fest und reißt beim Wenden die Grasnarbe auf.

Pros

  • Navigiert per LiDAR und Kamera ohne Draht, auch unter Bäumen und zwischen Gebäuden
  • Mäht in geraden, parallelen Bahnen, im Inneren bleibt selten etwas stehen
  • Umfährt Möbel, Sträucher und Igel-Attrappe, Erkennung in vier Stufen einstellbar
  • EdgeMaster kommt unter 5 cm an die Kante, an ebenen Mähkanten randlos
  • Schnitthöhe 30 bis 70 mm elektrisch per App in 5-mm-Schritten
  • 4G-Modul mit GPS-Ortung und Meldung beim Verlassen der Karte

Cons

  • Räder drehen beim Wenden am Hang und auf weichem Boden durch, Grasnarbe leidet
  • EdgeMaster schneidet die Kante immer auf 3 cm, im trockenen Sommer schädlich
  • Hochglanzgehäuse verkratzt schon bei leichten Berührungen
  • Stoßfängerfehler bei mehreren Geräten, teils schon bei der Einrichtung
  • Getrennte Rasenflächen nur mit zweiter, separat gekaufter Ladestation
