and, as an added bonus, in heaven these are on sale for $999.99 shipped! (please note, there will be a 5% vengeful fantasy fulfillment tax in heaven if proposition 666 passes...vote no on 666!)

I got mine (the 850) 2 weeks ago - Amazon had some kind of late night sale - $700. Went and looked again the next morning and it was back up to $1049 again.

This thing really cuts the grass - actually manicures it. Neighbors think I'm nuts tho for buying this "Toy" - so what - it's worth it. I get other chores done while "Bobby" does my back lawn.

How lazy do you have to be to use this thing? Probably the same people who leave their shopping carts in the parking spot.

This is kinda prejudice if you ask me.

Think about it logically for a few minutes, $1,000 maybe expensive, but some have reported picking up similar models for $700. My relatives pay $30/month for people to mow the lawns monthly, if it was $1000, that would pay itself off in 34 months or 24 months if at $700.

Now, if you split the costs/mant. with a relative, or a neighbor this would turn out to be quite a deal.

Some people have different needs.

I thought about getting a lawnbot, but someone in my neighborhood would probably steal it.

Also for those that say how lazy do you have to be, I'd bet using electricity instead of gasoline saves a lot of money over the life of the mower. Also, it's better for your grass to be cut every other day like the bots tend to do.

For those that got one of these, how well does it works in corners and odd shape lawn?

How tall of a grass can it handles?

$30/month, that is cheap. How big is your lawn? I paid $25/week and my house sit on just a little bit over 1/4 acre.

Yeah, I myself thought $30/month is cheap. It is not my house, it is my relatives. Their yard is pretty small, as is the lot. But they've been with these same guys for 10+ years. >_> They could bought a few of these.


alert mods    

Yes, I would imagine most people (especially those who hire lawn services) would see payback within a year on buying one of these. Also, the most basic riding mowers cost around $1,000 as an alernative, and will have more maintenance cost. All this will use is some electricity.

I sure can't wait for the RoboShovel and the Roboshovel+ with salt.

Check this one out. It knocks out mowing the lawn and playing with the kids at the same time.


alert mods    

my comments were more directed to the person who is too lazy/fat to mow, not people like my grandma who pays someone to mow her lawn. I understand how this could save money if you paid someone to mow.

Probably the same jerks that pay hundreds for a washing machine instead of using rocks down at the creek...

You don't have to be lazy to use this. It gives me more time to weed, trim, plant etc. Using a power mower might have gotten the same response years ago. I remember using a push, no power anything, mower and never reminiss on those good old days.

I turn 60 in about a month and know we pay for what we get. A good lawn service now days is expensive. My 17 year old use to do it in the neighborhood for $10 an hour. I did it long ago for 50 cents a lawn.

Robo isn't perfect. I still have lots to do before and after he's done his job.

for the oldtimers- woot.com 1st product was the robomower (older version) for $199.. I bought one.. still works great.. had to replace the batteries once. worth $200.. not $1000 unless your rich.
