I have not completed the setup but so far it is going great. I was really impressed at the way it saw my septic tank ahead. it was going fast then slowed right down, drove up close and turned away. It ended up circling the tank. Pretty cool. Rain interrupted last night's task and it came running home covered in dirty rain spots. I wiped the poor baby clean.

We have a more rural style lawn... Whatever grows is what grows. In some areas, it's one variety of grass, in other spots it's painful spiky weeds like khaki weed (or "burs") and caltrop weed (which we call cat heads around here). And it's not smooth.

I set the Yuka up about 1 week ago, and have mowed the front yard properly 3 times now. And it's doing great. It does get a little confused by the black poly pipe dripper hose we have running through the middle of the zone for some small trees... I expected this. And I was supposed to bury it years ago anyway. I guess I can force myself to do that job now 🤣

Set up was fairly straightforward. I intended to just mount the RTK antenna the afternoon the big box arrived and do the rest the next day... But everything was so easy to unpack and figure out that I got the RTK antenna up about 40 minutes after I opened the box, and then decided I may aswell just bolt the charger down and plug everything in. Had my first little test zone set up and mowed about 2 hours after I started the whole process.

I've also added the (unofficial) Home Assistant integration to my Home Assistant server. This alone is a major selling point, IMO. I can create much more complex scheduling with that than mammotion offer (for example, I could have the mowing start at dawn instead of a fixed time, but only if the temperature is above a certain level).

I would have preferred to get a newer model with lidar, but for the area this can cover at the price it is... I can handle not having lidar.

This is my very first robot mower and I'm quite satisfied with the performance on my weeds/grass. it's not lawn by any means, but this little mower (I call it Lorne Greene) can tame it pretty well.

That said, Lorne is as dumb as two short planks! It too frequently stops and has to do a 360 turn in place and chew up the ground, for no apparent reason at all. Then it just realigns itself back to where it was and continues after making a mess. It does too many in-place u-turns when it should drive slowly forward while it's turning to reduce damage to the ground.

It wanders slightly off the boundary from time to time, sometimes causing the blades to chow down on a rock. I've had the mower less than 2 weeks and the first set of blades is already kaput - BOTH edges are wrecked from the mower stepping outside the boundary, just a few inches, and try to go rock climbing. I end up re-mapping those part of the boundary to move the mower further inboard, to allow for this location drift.

I get it to mow my gravel driveway which has a strip grass each side and down the middle and I program it to do 4 (the max. amount) perimeter runs because this is super efficient because it only needs to turn at the ends (unless it does a random, crazy Ivan 360!). But after that's done, there's still a maybe 8 foot wide strip including the centre part and the mower goes back and forth cross-ways a thousand times, with an in-place u-turn at each end of the 8 feet (like suturing I guess). This is so damaging to the ground, painfully time-consuming, power draining and unnecessary. Please put in the option for infinite perimeter runs instead of 4, so the whole driveway area can be simply done by going around and around and around instead if back and forth ad nauseum.

Forget about trying to mow inside a little nook area, say 2ft wide by 4 feet long - it has always gotten hung up in tight spaces because it won't drive backwards, and does so many in-place turns that the ground gets wrecked and even bogs itself, so don't bother trying.

And lastly, the front wheel steering arrangement is nifty but awful. Those rollers around the circumference of the front wheels that help the mower turn work great on concrete, but small diameter rollers don't do well over bumps and their resistance puts more load on the back wheels which end up spinning and damaging the ground. Other brands have actual steering which would be much better.

But I live in hope, as most of these issues are solvable with smarter algorithms and firmware/software updates - so perhaps one day soon these issues will be improved upon.

In the end, my lawns are mowed and look neat as a pin, despite the teething issues and I get the same satisfaction looking at the clean lawns as I do if I had mowed them myself. And Lorne actually does less damage overall than my big zero-turn does. I like how quiet it is and that it mows at night if I want. It gets into areas that my big mower can't and it mows steep embankments that are scary on the ride-on.

I give Lorne 7/10 so far.

It’s everything promised as long as you have a decent wifi coverage. It’s early days but reason for not 5 stars is no matter what I try it still won’t cut close enough to edges.

We have a freestyle kidney pool with a beach area. Can't use the "ALL" mode as the cleaner leaves the pool via the beach as there is no coping lip to stop it. Cleans the floor well but probably due to th irregular shape of our pool it doesn't consistently clean all areas.
Often doesn't return to where it was placed into the pool when cycle finished. As we have a pool cover this means that I have to search for it.

Saves me work and was easy to setup and map areas etc

I purchased the MAMMOTION YUKA Mini 600 directly from MAMMOTION Australia for $1,449, expecting a reliable autonomous robotic lawn mower that would save me time and effort. Unfortunately, it has turned out to be one of the most disappointing purchases I have ever made.

From the beginning, this machine has been plagued by persistent operational problems.

It repeatedly gets stuck on relatively level lawn surfaces, often with absolutely no visible obstruction. At other times, it simply stops in the middle of its designated mowing area for no apparent reason. Even more frustratingly, it regularly travels beyond its carefully configured mowing boundaries and subsequently becomes immobilised.

The mower also frequently struggles to return to its charging station.

I have spent countless hours adjusting boundaries, establishing no-go zones, repositioning equipment, performing factory resets and following MAMMOTION’s troubleshooting instructions. Their support team even recommended inspecting and cleaning the front wheel assemblies using WD-40. I followed their recommendations, but the problems persist.

Almost every single time I operate this mower, I have to physically retrieve it, reposition it or restart it.

Think about that for a moment. I spent nearly $1,500 on an autonomous lawn mower, yet I effectively have to supervise it every time it operates. It has created more work for me rather than saving time.

What makes the experience even more frustrating is MAMMOTION’s response.

Despite providing extensive photographic and video evidence of the recurring faults, their customer support team has continued to focus on troubleshooting rather than offering a meaningful resolution. When I requested a refund or replacement, I was informed that my purchase was outside their standard return period and that further technical assessment would be required.

This is not a change-of-mind return. I am complaining about a product that, in my experience, has consistently failed to perform its fundamental advertised function.

I have even had passers-by stop outside my house while the mower was operating to ask whether I would recommend buying one. My response has been an emphatic NO. I would genuinely hate for someone else to spend this amount of money and experience the same frustration.

I am not someone who ordinarily takes the time to write such a negative review, but the combination of the product’s unreliability, the time wasted attempting to rectify its faults, and the lack of a satisfactory resolution has left me extremely dissatisfied.

My verdict: An expensive, unreliable machine that has completely defeated the purpose of autonomous lawn maintenance. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend the MAMMOTION YUKA Mini 600.

I will update this review if MAMMOTION provides an appropriate resolution. Until then, I strongly encourage prospective buyers to carefully consider my experience before investing in this product.

Buying a robot pool cleaner came with lots of trepidation. So many on the market and unclear who and what to trust but let me tell you the SPINO E1 does exactly what it says. This has made managing our pool so easy, it is effective, easy to use and reduces our time spent vacuuming and cleaning by 80%.

Never worked from day one.
Battery runs out in 30mins and does not clean even the obvious stuff.
The basket is always empty.
I have been with costumer service now for 10 days and all they keep replying with is to check the software. This rubbish robot can hardly stick to the pool floor. The front wheels are always up.

Great product.... sit back and watch the magic happen.

I recently purchased a Luba 3 5000 directly from "Mammotion Australia. I was shocked when I checked the payment. I was charged $194.22 as an International Transaction fee. Not really Australia as claimed. I could have purchased this locally from Australia, but not explained in advance. Not happy that I had to pay extra.

Easy to use, easy to set up. I didn't need the additional antenna where i lived in Shoalhaven NSW. Highly recommend.

Very impressed with this little robot. My pool has some tricky steps and it even handles those perfectly!

Very happy with performance of cleaner

Replaced broken Aiper cleaner with this. Was half the price and just as good. Slightly heavier but I’m over 60 and can still manage it

Pool has never been cleaner, just put it in and forget about it until it beeps to retrieve it out again.
Don’t forget to get the basket liners also, to keep in extra clean

Great little machine, only had it a few weeks, will be interesting to see how it lasts

Does a fine job, but the battery duration could do with a little boost. A push notification when the job is done would really add value too.

This mower the mammotion 3.- 3000 is just fantastic as there is no other was to describe it. It works in daylight hours and it works at night. It cuts about 3 acres here and I started at 35mm blade hight and i have gradually lowered it down to 27mm which is where i want it. It has saved me so much time sitting on the ride on mower. As well the saving of buying fuel for the ride on. Thank you Mammotion.

Works so well, pool has never looked so crystal clear

Mower is awesome straight out of the box, but I need a sweeper for it and your sweeper only works with the Yuka series.

I am amazed at how accurate it navigates, even in difficult situations, under trees, other side of the house etc.
Performs a brilliant job at mowing the lawn too, as intended. My lawn looks amazing week in and week out.

Can mow at anytime without annoying anyone. And does a great job.

Installation was so easy, this is an amazing machine I would highly recommend it.

I've got to be honest, I was sceptical about this lawn mower. I thought it was heavily priced and was struggling to justify it, but having received it, the quality is excellent but above all else, it performs.

I have two lawns, front and back of my house. The back lawn, requires the luba 3 to navigate a steep incline but not just that, it has to do it over loose, rubbly soil and so far, its been a success.

The app is good once you get to grips with it, but it is definitely not has intrusive as it looked on some of the YouTube videos, so suggest watching those. However, I've only had Luba 3 for a few weeks, but so far, so good.
