What reviewers found
Mammotion LUBA 3 AWD
- TechRadar (Performance 5/5, Value 4/5): Tested the LUBA 3 AWD 3000: simple setup, reliable scheduling and docking, professional looking stripes; front wheels damaged grass in shade during zero turns and the app was glitchy. Called it highly recommended. Source
- Gear Diary (4.5/5): Tested the 3000: drove itself between two lawn sections split by a driveway; obstacle avoidance missed a rubber hose on the low setting; no grass damage seen. 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
