## What reviewers found

### 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.

- 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.

### Mammotion YUKA mini

- TechRadar: Tested the Mini 600 (sold as Mini S in the US). Cut neatly, navigated reliably and handled steep slopes, but setup was confusing and the app basic. [Source](https://www.techradar.com/home/small-appliances/mammotion-yuka-mini-lawnbot-review)
- Freshly Charged: Climbed an 18° hill without trouble; auto mapping was mixed in overgrown grass and tall grass left stragglers. [Source](https://www.freshlycharged.com/reviews/363/2025-mammotion-yuka-mini-review)
