Robot lawn mower rating methodology 2026
Our AI score is built on 12 weighted criteria: lawn area, runtime, slope, navigation, noise, warranty, app, safety, mulching, price, robustness and cut quality. Weights are recomputed for every market.
Criteria evaluated
Max lawn area, runtime, slope, navigation (RTK/GPS/vision/wire), noise in dB, warranty, mobile app, kid/pet safety, mulching, price, mechanical robustness, cut quality.
Per-market weighting
RTK matters more in rural Europe than dense suburbs; slope matters more in Switzerland than the Netherlands. Every country has its own coefficients.
Editorial independence
No paid reviews. Affiliate links are disclosed on every product page and have no impact on the score.

Scores are refreshed every time a price, firmware version or new model is released.
