Described by Honda as ‘the ultimate time- & labour-saving device’, the robotic Miimo HRM300 will not only leave you with an enviably well-manicured lawn; it will also enable you to enjoy a great deal more spare time for the duration of the growing season. It operates within the confines of a perimeter wire, which you layout around the area you wish to be cut. Once that’s done, you just need to attach the wire to the base-station, from where the mower will depart as programmed. From this point onwards, very little human interaction is required, & you’ll be able to get on with things you’d rather be doing. The Honda Miimo HRM300 Robotic Lawn Mower offers three operating-modes – directional; random; & mixed – so you can select the one that best suits the shape, size & layout of your garden. It’s self-charging, with the mower returning automatically to base when it senses recharging is required; & it’s fitted with three super-sharp & hardwearing blades, which will flex rather than break under impact, in turn ensuring hidden stones & the like won’t prove too troublesome. Should the Honda Miimo HRM300 drive into a solid object, its ‘bump’ sensors will activate & see the unit stop, turn & then move away from that object. Honda’s employment of lithium-ion battery technology ensures the fastest possible charge times & an impressively lengthy cell-life; while their provision of three preset heights-of-cut means the user can adapt to conditions & create the finish they prefer. A mulching machine, the Miimo HRM300 finely chops cut grass, with the powerful under-deck airflow that’s created by the integrated fan working to force the mulched clippings back into the turf, where they’ll decompose & release vital nutrients & micro organisms. For user-safety & theft-protection, Honda have fitted this feature-packed machine with a pair of ‘lift’ sensors, which will shut the motor down, should the mower leave the ground. It cannot then be reactivated until the operator enters a secret pin-code, rendering it useless if stolen. Also featured is a directional ‘YAW’ sensor, which combines with high-traction wheels & powerful drive-motors to ensure effective operation on slopes up to 24-degrees. This model is suitable for areas up to 2200-square-metres. ...

If you own a larger lawn (around 3000sq.m) & would like to keep it in peak condition without expending any-effort, this groundbreaking robot mower from Honda should be at the top of your shopping-list. It’s fast & hassle-free to set-up. Firstly position the base-station (which is essentially where the mower ‘lives’), then layout the border wire around the area that’s to be mown. You can then programme the mower to depart its base at the time you prefer, leaving you to enjoy more spare time from spring through to autumn. Honda Miimo HRM500 Robotic Lawn Mower runs on a high-powered lithium-ion battery, which has many advantages over its lower-spec ni-cad cousins, including a lack of self-discharge & memory effect; & longer run-times & shorter charge-times. When the battery is low, the mower will return to its base for recharging of its own accord. Fitted with three blades that will finely chop grass-clippings as they swirl under the deck, the Honda Miimo HRM500 will leave your lawn free of messy cuttings & thoroughly well-nourished by the rapid decomposition of the shredded grass (the blades are made from flexible material, so they won’t dangerously shatter in the event they hit an immoveable object). Equipped with three independent ‘bump’ sensors, the Miimo HRM500 will stop & turn away from any obstacle it might encounter. Also featured is a ‘ Yaw’ sensor, which keeps the mower firmly on course when it’s mowing sideways along slopes; & a ‘lift’ sensor, which kicks-in when a lack of contact with the ground is detected. The unit is then deactivated, with the entry of your chosen pin-code the only way to get it going again – this renders it a particularly unattractive target for thieves; & also ensures a curious child wouldn’t be injured by having a look underneath the machine. Three operating-modes are offered (random; directional; mixed), so you can choose the one that will be most effective for the size & shape of your lawn. ...
