Best Robot Lawn Mowers (2026): 10 Makers, Wired and Wire-Free

The best robot lawn mower starts with one question: do you want to lay a boundary wire? Wire-guided mowers work inside a wire you put down round the lawn, wire-free mowers name RTK, LiDAR or vision navigation instead, and a few yard robots take a mower module beside snow and trimmer modules. Settle the wire question first.

A robot lawn mower used to mean one thing: a small mower that stayed inside a wire pegged round the edge of the lawn. Read the makers' pages now and you'll find wire-free mowers that navigate with RTK, LiDAR and cameras, a tracked machine, and a yard robot that swaps its mower for a snow blower.

This list covers ten makers, using only what each one's own site says, read on 2 Nov 2026 (as of Nov 2026). It's alphabetical and in no particular order. You won't find lawn-size, battery or slope claims here, just how each mower finds its way and what else its maker sells.

Ten robot lawn mower makers

eufy

Best for: Households already using its robot vacuums or security cameras, from a brand that has added robot lawn mowers to its range.

Gardena

Best for: Gardeners who want robotic lawnmowers from the same brand as their hoses, sprinklers and smart system watering controls.

Husqvarna

Best for: Picking from separate residential and commercial robotic lawn mower ranges, sold under the Automower name with a connect app and buying guide.

Kress

Best for: Choosing between rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive robot mowers, with Voyager RTK technology and commercial and golf course ranges too.

Lymow

Best for: Lawns where you'd like a tracked machine: the One Plus is an RTK robotic lawn mower with track drive and no boundary wire.

Mammotion

Best for: Comparing several series in one place: LUBA AWD, LUBA mini AWD, and the YUKA and YUKA mini series.

Robomow

Best for: Setting up a mower with a perimeter wire, choosing between the RK series and the RKS series for smaller lawns, with an app and robot finder.

Segway Navimow

Best for: Skipping the boundary wire: its smart, wire-free robotic mowers include the i2 AWD and i2 LiDAR lines and the X4 series.

Worx

Best for: Owners of its other garden tools: Landroid robotic mowers from a brand that also sells blowers, chainsaws and pruners, with a PowerShare range.

Yarbo

Best for: Year-round yard work: a modular yard robot whose Lawn Mower Pro module sits beside snow blower, blower and trimmer modules on the Y40 core.

Wire or no wire: the first decision

Here's what the search term hides. 'Robot lawn mower' covers wire-boundary mowers, wire-free RTK mowers and multi-tool yard robots, so the first question is whether you want to lay a wire at all. Robomow's page talks about laying a perimeter wire. Segway Navimow calls its range 'smart, wire-free robotic mowers'. And Yarbo sells a mower module for a yard robot that also takes snow blower and trimmer modules.

  • Boundary wire: you lay a perimeter wire round the lawn and the mower works inside it.
  • Wire-free: the maker names RTK, LiDAR or vision navigation instead of a wire.
  • Yard robot: one machine that takes a mower module, plus modules for snow and trimming.

Mowers set up with a perimeter wire

One maker here sells mowers set up with a perimeter wire. Its range splits into the RK series and the RKS series, which its page says is for smaller lawn sizes. Its site has a robot finder that asks three simple questions to point you to a model, plus a compare page and an installation section.

If you don't mind laying a wire once, this route keeps the choice simple: you're picking a series and a lawn size, not a navigation system. If the idea of pegging a wire round every bed puts you off, read on.

Wire-free mowers: RTK, LiDAR and tracks

The wire-free makers lead with navigation. One lists LUBA AWD, LUBA mini AWD and YUKA series, and its newest LUBA model names NetRTK positioning alongside cameras and LiDAR. The European page of another maker lists i2 AWD, i2 LiDAR and X4 mowers. Lymow calls its machine an 'RTK robotic lawn mower with track drive', the only mower here described with tracks.

Drive type is the other split. Kress separates rear-wheel-drive from all-wheel-drive robot mowers, and lists a Voyager range with RTK technology. Its business pages also cover golf courses, sport fields, resorts and facilities, so it's one of two makers here with a commercial side.

Robot ranges from big garden and home brands

Four brands here sell their robots as one range among many. Husqvarna splits its robotic lawn mowers into residential and commercial ranges under the Automower name. Gardena lists robotic lawnmowers under lawn care, beside rotary and cylinder lawnmowers. Worx sells Landroid robotic mowers next to blowers, chainsaws and pruners.

And eufy's menu lists robot lawn mowers beside its robot vacuums and security cameras. If you already use one of these brands for hoses, trimmers, smart watering or a robot vacuum, you'll find its robot mowers in the same shop.

Yard robots that do more than mow

One machine here isn't a mower in the usual sense. It's a modular yard robot: you buy a core, the Y40 or Y40P, and add a Lawn Mower Pro module, a snow blower, a blower or a trimmer. Its shop menu sorts products into Lawn Care, Snow Removal, Leaf Cleanup and Edge & Detail Trimming.

That's a different purchase from a mower-only robot, so decide whether you want one machine for every season before you compare it with the others.

Questions to answer before you pick a mower

  • Am I willing to lay a perimeter wire round the lawn?
  • Do I want RTK, LiDAR or vision navigation instead?
  • Would rear-wheel drive do, or do I want all-wheel drive?
  • Do I want a mower only, or a yard robot with snow and trimmer modules?
  • Do I already use a garden brand's tools or smart watering?
  • Is there a robot finder or compare page on the maker's site to narrow the range?

Do you make a robot lawn mower? Tool makers can ask to be considered for a featured place on this list.

My advice on picking a robot mower

Answer the wire question first. If you're happy to lay a perimeter wire, the wire-guided range here is set up for that. If you'd rather not, look at the makers that name RTK, LiDAR or vision navigation. Then decide on drive type, and only then compare models. If you want one machine for snow as well as grass, the modular yard robot is in a category of its own.

Mowing is only one garden job: here are the options for getting rid of yard waste, and if you're weighing up bigger projects, here are the home improvements that add value. For floors indoors, see my list of the best cordless vacuums.

Frequently asked questions

Do robot lawn mowers need a boundary wire?

Not all of them. One maker here describes setting up with a perimeter wire, while two others call their mowers wire-free and name RTK, LiDAR or vision navigation instead. Check which kind a model is before you buy, because it changes the setup.

Which robot mowers here use RTK?

Three makers name it on their pages: one calls its mower an RTK robotic lawn mower with track drive, one lists NetRTK positioning on its newest LUBA model, and one lists a Voyager range with RTK technology.

Are there all-wheel-drive robot mowers?

Yes. Mammotion lists LUBA AWD and LUBA mini AWD series, another maker's European page lists i2 AWD mowers, and one maker separates rear-wheel-drive from all-wheel-drive robot mowers.

Can a robot mower clear snow too?

One machine on this list can, because it isn't a mower-only robot. It's a modular yard robot that takes a Lawn Mower Pro module, a snow blower module, a blower and a trimmer on one core.

Do any of these makers sell commercial robot mowers?

Yes. One sells separate residential and commercial robotic lawn mower ranges, and another has business pages for golf courses, sport fields, resorts and facilities.

Which brands sell robot mowers beside other garden tools?

Several. One lists robotic lawnmowers beside rotary and cylinder mowers, hoses and smart watering controls, one sells robotic mowers next to blowers, chainsaws and pruners, and one sells them beside chainsaws, string trimmers and snow blowers.
