Super easy to set up. Extremely quiet and accurate. And more fun than anything to watch!! Also the help from Mamotion staff pre-sale was amazing!
I’ve had my mini for about a month and it is certainly a capable machine, it has freed up a bunch of my time and it’s doing a good job. It has had no problem dodging my chickens or the rolling coop.
However I have found a few things to comment on: first, its design limits how close it can cut to a fence or obstacle… nothing to be done there…
I like the idea that it can optimize a mow pattern… but it doesn’t seem that optimal and it doesn’t vary the optimal pattern… especially for an odd shaped yard it could be better.
Also I can’t figure out how to delete a corridor… so sometimes it wastes time on an inefficient path.
Finally, I wish it came back to the operator after a few mows and asked you if the obstacles it found were no mow areas or if it could optimize the boundary’s…. Seems like the ai could do a little more improvement.
Finally, I wish they had a auto gate for it… something I could install in a fence to let it in or out without me, and without releasing my chickens…
I'm recently a widowed senior with lots of lawn to mow! This robot mower has made my life so much easier. Works like a charm. I'm extremely happy with it's performance at this point.
Thanks for this mower!
I have owned a few mower robots from various brands. All of them always came with shortcomings but this is the first robot that just works. I have been using it now 2 weeks. Setup was super easy since there is perimeter wire but really what blew me away was its ability to climb hills. Previous robots always seemed to struggle with parts of my property but this one has no issue. It even is able to go up a larger hill toward the back of my property which no other robot could do. It cuts very well and I like the options to control the cutting pattern. I believe that is unique too to other robots. Overall very satisfied.
Luba Mini Review – A Game-Changer for My Yard!
I’ve been using my Luba Mini for about a week now, sending it out every 3 days, and let me tell you—it’s been doing a fantastic job cutting the grass! The lawn looks clean and even every time, and I barely have to think about it.
I have back issues, so mowing the lawn was getting tough. This little guy has been a blessing—just press a button and boom, fresh cut grass without the strain. I’ve only had to break out the weed eater once so far, which is a huge win in my book.
One heads-up: even with the vision system set to sensitive, it’s accidentally munched a couple of dog toys that got left in the yard. So if you’ve got pets like I do, just do a quick toy sweep beforehand.
All in all, I’m super happy with it. It’s reliable, saves my back, and lets me enjoy the yard instead of dread mowing it. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a smart, hands-off lawn solution!
In my first week and yard looks great. Loving mowing while I’m at work!
Excited and looking forward to using our new Luba 2 this summer after our spring cleanup of our lawn in the northeast.
Pleasantly surprised by how effective this little guy is. Setup was simple (software and hardware) and it’s so quiet that even the birds we feed weren’t bothered. The tech is impressive, even for someone like me that works at an autonomous tech startup.
Pretty good so far after two sessions. Occasionally does get caught on my garden flowerbed edging when it turns though - sometimes it seems like it goes past the mapped area a tiny bit. But overall impressed with the product.
I just set up and did my first mowing. I am impressed with its performance. However, the package came damaged and the charging station is scratched/dented at multiple spots. I contacted customer service about it a week ago, but have not heard any response as of yet.
This is my second Mammotion machine and just like the first it's working to near perfection. My original Luba 1 is still great and I rely on it to cut a large 1 acre lot for an investment property. The new Luba 2X was exactly the mower I need and it also maintains a large 1 acre property. Both properties are located nearly 100 miles away and so I've come to depend on their reliability as I can't watch over them on the daily. I'm off to order my third for a more challenging property but I expect the excellent results will be the same.
Set up was abiut 2.5 hours to start. Took over mowing duties with a 10000HX and have 14 zones and 55,000 sq feet under mow. Just completing 3rd mowing round during the soggy but fast growing spring in the Pacific northwest. Tall wet grass performance excellent. Noise profile fantastic. Manual mapping works best for us. Easy process. A little harsh on fragile turf when turning around, need to be careful, especially with overlapping zones. But a real game changer and wonderful addition. Takes about 32 hours to clear the entire package of zones over a couple days. We are night mowing. Worth every penny, even though expensive.
I received this mower a few weeks ago. I've had it mow multiple times so far. I absolutely love this robot. I had to think through my zones a bit and tweak it a few times but now it's set up perfectly. I did put an air tag in the top area to give me provide a little peace of mind since I have it parked outside in order to mow automatically every three days. My routine is now super easy with edging and blowing every two weeks - only about 20 minutes! That's it. It used to take me over an hour two times a week to mow. The random angle option is perfect as you can see from the photo. I have some uneven areas in my front yard but this machine handles it without any issues. I would highly recommend this lawn mower.
I bought the Luba 2 to mow a very steep hill in the back of my yard. The hill is too steep for a riding mower and can be somewhat dangerous to mow by hand. So far, the Luba 2 has handled the slope with ease and hasn’t gotten stuck once. I’ve used it to mow the yard about four times now and haven’t had any issues with its operation.
My only complaint so far is the cut quality—the quality is not always 100% perfect throughout the yard. To be fair I have not investigated what could be done, call Mammotion or read any posts about this. However, I am planning to reconfigure the task area in the front yard (where appearance matters more) to use a cross-cut pattern so the Luba 2 approaches the grass from different angles. There may be other adjustments beside using a cross cut that may would take of the issue.
Other than that, I’m completely satisfied with the product and the customer service. I have no regrets about the purchase. The Luba 2 will save me countless hours and, more importantly, eliminates the risk of injury from mowing that steep hill.
So far this little robot has done everything it promised to do. I love how does not erode your soil away by creating dust storms in patchy spots like my big 17hp zero turn mower. It’s super quiet, quiet enough I have zero qualms letting it run into the evening. The coders have really addressed the concerns of the users with each app update. I am using the RTK station and it has worked flawlessly to position the mower when I told it to when mapping. After witnessing 4 cuts so far I was impressed enough to get another for my mother-in-law. So far so good!! Nice job guys!! If I can get to 30 cuts without an issue then it will start to be less expensive than a lawn cutting service, crossing my fingers. I think it will make it! So far it has been very nice to not have to cut the lawn. Yesterday we had a fire in our fire pit and it was funny to see it glide by cutting all around us while we were sitting enjoying the fire.
I have a wrap around yard, with a 25 degree slope in back, and two no mow zones in the front. I have had the mower for two weeks and have mowed my yard four times. I am very pleased with the performance or this mower. I am able to do all the rest of my yard work (spraying weeds, trimming bushes, and edging grass) while the mower does it's thing. Truely a time saver.
No issues in set up and mapping my yard. Tip: map your mow zones in the order you want the mower to cut them. I would suggest the furtherest zone be the first and the zone that has the charging station in it be the last.
So far I love it. 4 for 4 on mowing 🤞
This thing is pretty darn good. Is it perfect? No. Is designing and building a device that navigates obstacles and mows my yard while I'm golfing a VERY difficult task? Heck YES! And this mower does exactly that. There is a bit of learning and tweaking at first, but I'm figuring it out and it gets better each time I adjust something.
After getting through the setup process things seem to be going good so far. Spring is just around the corner here so I can't put it to full use yet.
I did set up different areas to test functions and I am impressed with the mower's ability to move area to area and change up functions as needed. The more I learn the better I like the mower. The mower actually seems as though it was thinking out moves as it worked. So far so good.
I am a detail oriented person and have set my Luba 2 up and used it several times. It is fantastic. Everything works as it should and each part of the platform seems to mesh well together. The robot apparently stores much of the map info onboard because it works just fine when it is at the edges of our large lot. I hope that someday, it will be able to be housed in my garage. It has to be in the open now. It needs to see the sky. If I could park it in the garage, and if it would open and close my garage door as needed, that would be a fantastic addition.
Once we got the maps and paths laid out logically it has been doing a good job. The object avoidance does not work very well. With object avoidance set to standard, it drove itself into the back of our John Deere Gator and kept pushing until I stopped it. The bumper was under the vehicle, but the camera had full view of the back of the vehicle in the middle of the slow moving vehicle sign. The triangular reflective slow moving vehicle sign extended below the camera but not down to the bumper. Also, if you do not define obstacles like posts or trees as exclusion zones, it will get
logically stuck even though it is not physically stuck. To get it mowing again you need to end the task and then manually drive it before it will run again. Despite these problems, we have decided to keep it. It mows the grass well and it even cuts the grass when wet with dew. It leaves less clumps of cut grass on the lawn that our riding mower. The positioning is very precise and reliable. We have had no instances of it going outside the boundaries. We have 6500 meters2 of lown to cut in western Washington State and it is able to keep up with the mowing running 10 hours a day. I wish it would vary its route to and from the charging station even just by its own width each time. It follows the same route each time and is leaving wheel tracks on the routes it uses to reach the areas farthest from the charging station.
The RTK station and Robot have been functioning flawlessly thus far. The installation and configuration process were relatively straightforward. We are optimistic that future grass cutting will be equally smooth and devoid of any technical challenges.
After much research I was excited to receive and put the mower to the test for several weeks and I'm happy with my purchase. When setting up initially, I should have broken up my zones into smaller, more manageable areas.
As a retired man with mobility issues this mower has changed my life. The Luba operates as advertised and does not have any problems with the steep hill in my backyard.
I had been previously mowing with a Husqvarna 450 Automower for almost 7 years. Last year became quite frustrated with problems. I decided to give the Luba 2 5000 HX a try. It was very easy to assemble and setup. I am SUPER impressed with the mower so far. Only a few disconnects with the app but overall very impressed. Still trying to tweak the cutting patterns. There are a few small patches it misses for some reason. The firmware and the app have already both been updated several time and each time it gets better. I have been mowing with the new Luba 2 for about 2 1/2 weeks. Things are looking GREAT, much better with the Mammotion Luba 2 than with the old Husqvarna 450. My friend also just purchased a Luba Mini with a much smaller lawn than mine.
