Verdict

Pros & cons

Der Husqvarna Automower Aspire R6V ist ein drahtloser Einstieg für kleine Gärten: Er navigiert per Netz-RTK ohne eigene Station und mäht in geraden Bahnen. Realistisch sind bei offenem Rasen gut 400 m², in verwinkelten Gärten etwa 300 m². Der Haken: Er braucht stabiles WLAN bis zum Zaun, und am nassen Hang rutscht er schon ab etwa 25 %.

Pros

  • Netz-RTK mit unter 5 cm Genauigkeit, keine eigene Referenzstation nötig
  • Mäht in systematischen Bahnen, Muster wie Streifen oder Schachbrett wählbar
  • Kamera umfährt tief hängende Äste zuverlässig ohne Anstoßen
  • Einrichtung per App schnell erledigt, Grenzen später zentimetergenau anpassbar
  • Schnitthöhe 20 bis 50 mm elektrisch per App einstellbar
  • Sechs Ersatzmesser im Lieferumfang, Messerwechsel in etwa 5 min

Cons

  • Braucht 2,4-GHz-WLAN auf der gesamten Rasenfläche
  • Räder rutschen auf nassem Gras schon ab etwa 25 % Steigung
  • Durchgänge müssen mindestens 120 cm breit sein
  • Lädt 200 min für 100 min Mähen, kein Regensensor
  • Kein Display am Gerät, Bedienung nur per Smartphone

Der Sunseeker Elite X5 ist ein drahtloser Allrad-Mähroboter mit RTK-Basisstation und Kamera, der auf welligem Boden saubere, gleichmäßige Bahnen mäht. Er passt zu großen Hanggärten mit freiem Himmel, die du in mehrere Zonen aufteilst. Der Haken: Die Schnitthöhe stellst du nur per Drehrad am Gerät ein, an Zäunen bleibt ein Streifen stehen, und verwinkelte Ecken lässt er aus.

Pros

  • Schwimmendes Mähdeck schneidet auch welligen Rasen gleichmäßig in geraden Bahnen
  • Allrad schafft Hänge von rund 47 % ohne Rutschen und Spuren
  • Umfährt Spielzeug, Äste und Gartenstühle zuverlässig
  • Eigene RTK-Station liefert etwa 2,5 cm Genauigkeit ohne Netz-Abo
  • Fährt allein durch Gartentore zwischen bis zu acht Zonen je Karte
  • Einrichtung samt Kartierung in rund 2 h, auch für Einsteiger

Cons

  • Schnitthöhe nur per Drehrad am Gerät, gilt für alle Zonen
  • Lässt verwinkelte Ecken und Stellen neben Treppen dauerhaft ungemäht
  • An Zäunen und Mauern bleibt ein Streifen stehen, kein Kantenmäher
  • Übersieht gelegentlich flache Wurzeln und fährt sich an Beetkanten fest
  • GPS-Ortung und Diebstahlalarm nur mit zusätzlichem 4G-Modul
