Is Gardena or Husqvarna still king or are the no-name whitebox rebrands catching up?

Of course something that works with Home assistant is a requirement.

    No HA integration but the Luba is a fantastic robo lawnmower. It honestly does a better job than i do

      Does it mow in straight lines? Those paths the Husqvarna leaves are super wonky.

        I have the Husq 115h, 3rd year starting now. After it “breaks in” and everything is even, you don’t see/notice that the pattern is random. You just see cut grass.

        I did have to modify the unit though! I contacted vender and Husq but it didn’t really go anywhere. Basically I had to cut off 2" of the “chin” in front because it kept hitting chunks of grass and triggering impact. After cutting, it works perfect. Seems like a really odd defect on their end.

        Yup! You can (and should*) configure it to do a checkerboard pattern over two runs

        *it does work great but sometimes misses just a little bit. Having to do two runs in a pattern makes it pretty much perfect
