Verdict

Pros & cons

Der ANTHBOT N8 ist ein drahtloser RTK-Mähroboter mit Fangkorb, der Rasenschnitt und Herbstlaub fast vollständig einsammelt und an bis zu fünf Abladezonen selbst auskippt. Er passt zu großen, offenen Laubgärten, in denen du sonst jeden Samstag rechen würdest. Der Haken: Mit knapp 70 dB ist er laut, und mit dem fast 1 m langen Korb schafft er nur rund 69 m² pro Stunde.

Pros

  • Sammelt Rasenschnitt nahezu vollständig und Herbstlaub bis auf einzelne Blätter
  • Kippt den vollen Korb über Wochen ohne Fehlversuch an der Abladezone aus
  • RTK mit eigener Station oder Netz-RTK, Kameras überbrücken kurze Signalausfälle
  • Mulchscheibe und Deflektor im Lieferumfang, Umbau mit drei Schrauben
  • Leiser Modus senkt den Schalldruck von 75 auf 68 dB
  • Schafft 45 % Steigung

Cons

  • Im Sammelbetrieb mit knapp 68 bis 70 dB so laut wie ein Akkurasenmäher
  • Mit Korb rund 69 statt 135 m²/h, danach 80 min Laden
  • Fast 1 m lang: rangiert an Bahnenenden mehrmals, fährt sich an Engstellen fest
  • Lässt bis zu 15 cm Randstreifen und kommt nicht in Innenecken
  • Erkennt Igel-Attrappen und Tennisbälle nicht zuverlässig

Der Ecovacs GOAT O800 RTK mäht ohne Draht in sauberen Bahnen und ist mit eigener RTK-Station in rund 25 min eingerichtet. Er passt zu offenen Gärten bis etwa 550 m² mit gutem WLAN. Der Haken: An Mauern bleiben 9 bis 10 cm stehen, und Schläuche, Äste und die Igel-Attrappe erkennt er nicht zuverlässig. Du musst also vorher den Rasen abgehen und den Rand selbst nachschneiden.

Pros

  • Gerade, lückenlose Bahnen ohne Begrenzungsdraht oder Baken
  • RTK-Referenzstation im Lieferumfang, kein Netz-RTK-Abo nötig
  • Ersteinrichtung samt Kartierung in 15 bis 25 min, allein machbar
  • Große Hindernisse wie Bäume, Möbel und Menschen ohne Berührung gemieden
  • Leiser Betrieb, von der Terrasse kaum hörbar
  • Übersichtliche App mit Sperrzonen, mehreren Zonen und Zeitsperre

Cons

  • An Mauern und Beeten bleibt ein Randstreifen von 9 bis 10 cm
  • Überfährt Schläuche, Äste und Spielzeug unter 10 cm Höhe wiederholt
  • Igel-Attrappe nur in einem Teil der Anfahrten erkannt
  • Ohne durchgehendes WLAN nicht nutzbar, Fernstart von unterwegs klappte nicht
  • Grobes Radprofil reißt auf nassem Rasen Erde heraus
