Any Automowers out there?

If you own any Husqvarna robotic lawnmower, please tell us about your experiences with it. Thanks!

Yeah, I'd like to know as well..  It was the Husqvarna that really introduced me to the idea.  I was at a museum in Wisconsin Dells and they had one mowing there, with a little plaque with information.  When I got home from vacation, I looked them up and found out about the Lawnbott and Robomower.. after doing the research, decided on a LB3200, but if it wasn't for the display, I would still be manually mowing my lawn, and hating every second of it.

I have an older mdl GEN 1 and love it. Fours years now. Great for my small (under 4,00sf) backyard. Just changed out the original blades to the more modern dbl edge blade system to get twice the use out of each blade. Change out one set per season. One battery change since owned. Expensive battery

What's expensive for a battery?  Lawnbotts are  $325 for an official one.  So, over the last 4 years, besides a battery and the blades a few times, have there been any other cost (parts replacements) that either you had to pay for, or were replaced under warranty?

Sorry Mel.. I found the original posting now
I had a typ O in my message as my lawn size is ~ 4,000sf. Mostly level, small incline ~ 12%
GEN1
I run a simple one area cutting...every day. I can cut back on hr in the hot dry months as the grass growth is reduced.

On HOT days the hrs cutting time is reduced (normal for most battery operated mowers). I have the charger under a shady tree to keep the unit cooler when in CHARGE
I did have interference (odd performance) on the GEN 1, when I tried to run a Lawnbott in the adjacent lawn area. I don't have the Lawnbott now  so NO ISSUES w/ the GEN1
