Hi there! I’m writing an article about Robotic Lawn Mowers and would appreciate your professional input. I am looking for a landscaping pro to answer the following questions:
1. When a homeowner asks you, "Should I buy a robotic mower?", what's the first question you ask them? What factors (like lawn complexity, grass type, or budget) dictate your recommendation?
2. We advise buyers to choose a mower rated for 1.5 to 2 times their actual yard size so it doesn't have to run continuously. Do you agree with this rule of thumb, and what is the biggest consequence of under-sizing a robotic mower?
3. Manufacturers claim AWD models can handle 35–45% slopes. In real-world conditions (especially on damp grass), what is the practical limit where you tell a client a robotic mower is no longer a viable option?
4. How does the constant "micro-mulching" of a robotic mower operating daily impact long-term soil health and thatch buildup compared to a traditional weekly cut?
