What reviewers found
Ecovacs GOAT A3000 LiDAR PRO
- BGR: Edge trimmer replaced roughly 75 to 90% of manual trimming; auto mapping took about five minutes; tall grass and weeds were sometimes treated as obstacles and left uncut. Source
- Bob Vila (4.5/5): A month on a sloped St. Augustine lawn: excellent cut on thick grass, edge trimmer cut close to walls and pavers, no stuck events, recharged in about 70 minutes. Source
Sunseeker X7 Gen 2
- Yanko Design: One week on a 6,777 sq ft Texas lawn with 32 oaks and an embankment. RTK fixed within a couple of minutes, the map held all week, it cut damp St. Augustine evenly, avoided a hose at night and fit through a 28 in gap. Source
- Homecrux: Hands on with five Sunseeker mowers sent by the company. The X7 ran at night, avoided obstacles reliably and left minimal missed spots; the article calls it the X7 Plus Gen 2 in one place and gives no measurements. Source
