What reviewers found
Airseekers Tron SE
- Bob Vila: Named Best Bang for the Buck. Strong on a large backyard and thick grass for the price; struggled in narrow sections and setup was frustrating due to connectivity problems. Source
Anthbot M9
- GadgetReview (85 True Score): Tested in Maine alongside a Lymow One Plus. Quietest mower the reviewer tested at about 60 dB at 1 m; setup took about 20 minutes. Stalled on thick, tall or wet grass, left a 15 to 20 cm border strip, lost position after driving off a ledge and could not dock. Expert score 82. Source
- New Atlas: Hands on test found setup took about 10 minutes as claimed, tight turns and straight lines, and no trouble with shadows or a clothesline pole. A test section used about 10% of the battery. Thick, stubborn grass got a less even cut; not suited to overgrown lawns or yards with roots. Source
