Automatic Lawnmower Does All the Work for You
The Robomow RL850 is an innovative lawn mower that works automatically, so you won’t have to spend another weekend pushing your old gas guzzler around the yard. It mows on its own within a boundary that you outline with a thin wire (included). Once you handle the initial wire setup, this mower does all the work for you–simply press ‘Go’, sit back, relax, and mow!
Powered by exclusive drop-and-go 24-volt batteries, the heavy-duty Robomow RL850 is an eco-friendly 53-centimeter, 21-inch mower/mulching system. With its three blades spinning at 5,800 RPM–double the speed of a typical gas mower–the Robomow RL850 travels across your lawn in a crisscross pattern, covering up to 10,800 square feet on a single charge. Easy to set, the Robomow RL850 delivers a 1.75- to 3.25-inch cut with high-cut blades and a 1.0-2.5-inch cut with low-cut blades.
Eco-Friendly, Wallet-Friendly Choice
Unlike conventional lawn mowers that pollute as much as 40 late-model cars in just one hour of use, Robomow RL850 offers a way to keep your lawn looking great without sacrificing the environment.
The Robomow RL850 doesn’t simply cut your grass–it repurposes the clippings through a patented process called grasscycling. The mower cuts grass into fine clippings and disperses the cuttings over the ground. These clippings quickly decompose and release valuable nutrients and water into the soil, resulting in a better-looking lawn. Grasscycling also leads to a deeper, healthier root system that increases your lawn’s resistance to disease, drought, and insects, and it reduces the amount of water your lawn needs by as much as 85%.
And because the eco-friendly Robomow RL850 doesn’t require gas, oil, tune-ups, or spark plugs, it will save you money.
Multiple Features for Safe, Quiet Operation
In addition to its environmental benefits, the Robomow RL850 offers several user-friendly, neighbor-friendly features. First, a user-controlled theft protection system guards the mower from unauthorized use, and a child lock provides peace of mind.
An on-board sensor and bumpers identify obstructions like trees, rocks and obstacles, and truly quiet operation means you can mow your lawn at any hour without disturbing your neighbors.
Dimensions and Warranty Information
The Robomow RL850 is WEEE and RoHS compliant, measures 26.0 x 12.5 x 35.0 (WxHxD), weighs 50 pounds (without battery), and is backed by a two-year warranty.

User Reviews
I purchased RL850 in July 2008. I have beening using it almost every afternoon except when it rains. So far, I am pleased with this purchase. The instruction is easy to follow and the operation is very simple. -- Very useful tool
It is just about the end of my first summer spent watching Mo cut the grass in our zone 6 Pennsylvania yard. It is a delight not to be doing the work myself. If Mo misses a spot I do not care because I AM NOT MOWING. Yippee.
Yes, it takes time and perserverence to lay the wire. I make my own pegs from wire coat hangers and I use 14 gauge wire from Home Depot because the supplies from this maker are just too high priced. The blades will probably have to be replaced (too many stones were hit this year) and the battery still seems fine after one summer of mowing 1/3 acre every week.
I have learned to use Mo only in dry weather - comments made by other reviewers are true, he does make a mess in mud and the deck does indeed get clogged with wet grass. But so did my big old gas powered Toro, which I do not miss.
You will like this mower if you are opposed to feeding and coddling lawn. MY "yard" was mainly weeds and turfgrass last May. Mo is set to mow high - 3" - and I can already see the improvement. The higher cut is allowing grass to crowd out weeds, with the result that there is more grass. The robot does a good job, costs over a three year period will be less than I would have paid the lawn service, and as for the edges, who really cares whether they are the neatest in town?
I love this thing. -- Love it!
