GARDENA 15201-20 SILENO Minimo – Automatic Robotic Lawn Mower with Bluetooth app, Boundary Wire – for lawns up to 2700 Sq Ft, Made in Europe, Grey

I live in Waimea on the Big Island of Hawaii and have a Kikuiyu yard. This thing is surprisingly really good. It’s definitely worth the money but you’ll have to put in some work to get it setup properly so that it doesn’t require too much maintenance. I’d recommend burying the boundary wire and the guide wire after a few weeks. I just used an edger to make a cut in the grass then push the wire into the kerf. You might want to lay it on the ground at first to find out how the mower cuts before burying it. I found that you don’t need a boundary wire around most obstacles like a kids play set and swings. The mower will just bump into walls and obstacles then just change direction and keep cutting. I found it cuts closer to walls if the wire is right up against them. You might want to stay about 3 inches away from concrete slabs and driveways so it cuts closer to the edge but not right on the edge in case you want to use an edger.Also when I got the mower it had a security pass code on it already and I almost returned the thing because resetting the code requires an old style usb and a computer. But I luckily guessed the code and it started working. The code I guessed was up, left, down, right, then hit the check mark in the middle. Just counter clockwise from the top. Usually during setup you set the code but for some reason it already had one. [...]
