I’ve had the mower for two weeks now, and so far, I love it! I can’t be more happy. I do have a lot with very few trees, so the RTK station picks up many satellites. It has worked flawlessly so far. My Bermuda is just starting to wake up, but I can’t wait to see what kind of lines Edward puts down when full green up occurs.

I have had the Yuka 2000 for a couple of weeks now and I am loving it! Took a bit of work to get the yard in shape prior to its first mow but all that needed to be done anyway. Now I just do a quick scan for branches, etc and then start it mowing every 3 or 4 days. The biggest issue is the lack of rain. If it would rain more often then the grass would look amazing. Just got the sweeper attachment. Can't wait to try it out!

Finally Free from Overpriced Lawn Services – Yuka 2000 is a Game-Changer!

I can’t say enough good things about the Mammotion Yuka 2000. After years of dealing with unreliable lawn guys and getting overcharged way too many times, I was done. Every year, I’d find myself paying crazy amounts for a service that didn’t even deliver consistently. But now? I don’t have to worry about any of that anymore.

This robot mower is smart, efficient, and handles my lawn like a pro. It’s super easy to set up, and once it’s running, it just takes care of everything. I actually look forward to seeing the yard now—it’s always clean and neat without me lifting a finger.

It’s a one-time investment that’s already saving me money, and honestly, the peace of mind is priceless. If you’re tired of getting gouged by lawn care services, trust me—Yuka 2000 is worth every penny.

Very impressed with perimeter, software, and engineering in the machine.
Pros: wow, this thing cuts way better than I thought it would with the razerblade style wheels. and the machine is engineered by some amazing professional designers who know how to win against the elements.

The machine feels durable, and sometimes I let the machine cut at night before the Dew starts forming. It doesn't need the sunlight and can even bumper avoid obstacles at night.

Recommend trying to level your yard with no holes or divots deeper than 2inches, and don't try to climb onto grass from pavement above two inches either.

Cons: Wish the website specified grass types that may not be compatible with each model.

Yuka Wheel struggles with St Augustine grass, just spins on the horizontal grass stems if it tries to turn or reverse.

The Sweeper is amazing tech, but if you have grass like Bahama that grows like a thin vine across the yard with roots above ground, the Sweeper wheel is going to get stuck completely full of it.

So I still need to cut 20% of my lawn myself because the machine can't handle some of my grass, but overall very satisfied it'll reduce my work load 80% and reduce my exposure during pollen season.

I purchased the Yuka 1500 and a Sweeper Attachment Kit to go with it. The robot does as it is supposed to: mows, sweeps up the clippings, and dumps them in the space you designate. However, I am returning it because I do not have the resources or type of open-to-the-sky, away-from-rooflines/-other-buildings space on my property to make Yuka work appropriately, and without my constant supervision. The last suggestion made to me by the support chat was to mount the RTK unit on the roof, and to move the charging station out from under my covered patio, I’d have to rip out established landscaping. (Note: property is a high-density suburban neighborhood, where the closest homes are about 10 feet away from the outer walls of your home). Robot lawn mower is a great concept, and I would consider purchasing in the future if I lived elsewhere, or if the technology advanced enough to allow better satellite signaling. The rest of this review comments towards things I would have done differently, and tips to help others:
1. Product requires more assembly than expected (approx. 2-3 hrs by myself, includes both the robot and sweeper kit, and initial plug-in/app connection). I found success in downloading the manual (with pictures and words), instead of depending on the manual provided (pictures only). It might be best to have a buddy to assemble with for an extra pair of hands.
2. The support chat is WONDERFUL! They understood my requests and questions pretty quickly, and provided solutions. Very kind and patient people.
3. Your RTK unit and Robot may not have the latest software/firmware coming out of the box. After assembling, plugging in for the first time, and connecting to your Mammotion app, consider checking to see if there’s a new software/firmware to download.
4. As I mentioned, you’ll want to install your RTK station and Robot charging station in such a way where they are not covered by rooflines, or too close to other buildings. (Mammotion’s website and manuals state this clearly, and that is definitely the key to success. After the 3rd time of attempting to use the robot - after programming, a test to see how well it would do without my supervision - it basically said “I’m Lost!” About 1/2 a foot away from the charging station, because the RTK was too close to the house next-door, and the robot sat on its charger under my covered patio).
5. Try to find a dumping site that is not in the middle of your lawn that is being mowed (Ex: If robot is mowing in Task Area 1, and Dump site is also in Task Area 1, the robot will avoid and not mow a large area around the dump site in Task Area 1.)
6. While it is great to have a robot that can ideally run itself, beware of kids and pets that are not your own who may be outdoors while the robot is working. Neighbor child (young, still learning safety/boundaries) went RUNNING up to the robot in motion, and approached from the side - I luckily was there and pushed the pause button right away through the app. Thankfully, the only button the child pushed was the “STOP” button on top of the robot. Parent was right there, and no one was hurt, though I feared the robot would not sense the child was there, and run over the child’s feet (again, child approached from the side, unexpectedly, where there are no vision cameras on the robot).
7. Before purchasing, consider your aptitude for technology and the use of smartphones and their apps. Once you’re connected to the app, you are programming straight from there, which includes figuring out how you’re connected to the internet, updating software, programming mowing areas and channels by which the robot will get to each location in your yard. Because I had trouble programming it (again - satellite connection issues in a suburban neighborhood), I spent a lot of time manually driving the robot around the yard through the app (think joystick/keyboard arrow-key type of driving).
If I can edit this review after the return process is complete, I will. So far, the instructions have been clear. Just be sure to keep the box it arrived to you in, and consider taking a picture of each “level” of styrofoam packing material or noting what items came from which internal boxes/slots. Because I don’t have the resources to pick up the robot’s box (approx. weight is 60 lbs.) and drop it off at the local shipping store, I am planning to schedule a pickup with the shipping company from my property.
Bottom line: This is a great concept and would be a huge help to anyone with a busy schedule, or anyone who is unable to find a gardener, or anyone who may not be able to mow their lawn like they used to. With the robot’s technology as it currently sits, this would be best suited to a home that has much larger space in between houses, and to an owner/operator who feels comfortable with programming the robot themselves.
Wishing you the best of luck with your robot lawn mower, and very curious to see how this technology develops over the years!
