- The Mammotion Luba 2 3000h is available for $ 2,499.
- The Luba 2 is built for the uneven terrain and is a reliable robot mower (all-wheel drive) with a GPS drive scope that is surprisingly easy to build.
- The mammotion app is not very user-friendly and can receive buggy after a firmware update.
Mowing the lawn is one of my favorite tasks. As a result, I concentrate on an uninterrupted task that fulfills my obsessive -compulsive disorder with the bonus to complete my exercise ring on my Apple Watch. But even though it is a nuisance that I enjoy, it still steals from my overly short weekend for a few hours.

That is there Mammotion Luba 2 Come in. Imagine the scene: take the dog for a walk and come to a perfectly mown lawn, even though it is only an overgrown mess an hour earlier. As they were gone, the robot mower took care of the unruly grass and left a beautiful checkered pattern.
I am glad to say that this dream with Luba 2 became a reality and although he has his quirks, he does the annoying lawn that mowed with efficiency and lightness.
When I received the Mammotion Luba 2 for review, the only wire-free GPS robot mower I had previously used was the one that I had previously used EcoFlow blade. As you can read in this review, it was terrible to set up the blade. It occupied hours of my Sunday afternoons, which caused me to repeat I repeated between my husband and me and me, and the children repeated that no, we will not drive the robot around the yard.
This time the mower fell to my husband on a day when I wasn't at home. I planned to help him return to the setup, but I was pleasantly surprised that everything was done when I came back. In fact, he only had praise for the simple establishment of the mammotion, as it was completed in less than two hours – from unboxing to rising in the courtyard.

In contrast, the establishment of the former robot mower, the EcoFlow blade, was a tedious job with two people because it could not get a signal enough, no matter where we put the GNSS antenna in our garden. For the Mammotion Luba 2 we didn't even put the antenna into the yard – it was still supported on the deck – but it was already connected to the mower and worked well.
Mammotion Luba 2 had no problems with the passage of two weeks of growth.

We were so careful where we used the EcoFlow antenna due to the signal problems during the installation process, and here, the antenna of the Luba 2 were seamlessly connected by a random position on the deck. If that doesn't tell you that it is a more advanced RTK GnSS system, I don't know what it is doing. I will update my rating of Luba 2 as soon as I have permanently installed the bar, add the garage and tested for a few months.

Mapping is simple and makes you pretty funny. You just go behind it and steer it around your garden with your smartphone with the mammotion app as a remote control. After completing the assignment process, Luba 2 mows the route independently. With the app you can also give the mower a name, so I gave it to Andeti because it resembles a Formula 1 car (and also so that I can ask my husband whether Andretti did his runs today).
My current court is fighting neglecting for decades and becomes a mixture of clover leaves and grass, but the Luba 2 gently cuts through everything.

We have recently received a lot of rain what the grass has grown like crazy. This quick growth has ensured that Andretti's work has cut out and has helped myself to collect tests for many hours in the past few months.
Also: I tried a robot for window cleaning and things went surprisingly well
During the entire test, I found the Mammotion Luba 2, which is able to navigate uneven terrain without influencing the card. For example, if other robot mower slides sideways, it often disturbs their assignment and instead of correcting their position, they continue from a wrong place. This leads to the lack of patches and the mower that can be excluded outside the cover area. In my tests, the Luba 2 was never victim to this error. Although it was slipped down a few times, it always set up its positioning and held the same card.

Unfortunately, the mammotion app is not very intuitive. Change the settings requires some menu hunt and attempt and error. However, it is loaded with functions. You can use the app to change the mowing pattern of stripes to checkered and more, to set up different zones, including no-go zones for pools or garden beds, the path order and the mowing height.

In the illustration, the scope that you go with Luba 2 is the same, which is followed when mowing the robot. It is a bit difficult to run and control the robot in a perfectly straight line along the scope of your property. I wish you could straighten the border lines in the app after creating the card.
The Luba 2 turned out to be respectfully consistent when mowing along the scope. I can see how the robot mows in curved lines that I mistakenly made during the mapping, but he does the same every time.

Although Mammotion -Luba 2 looks like the Ferrari of mowers, it makes the rounds around the lawn at its own pace. It is not slow compared to other robot mowers, but do not expect it to do justice to its appearance and that it will be a turbo lawnmaker.
My Luba 2 wandered from his way six times during the test. In one of these times it ended up in my neighbor's yard, which is much less than ideal because they are very specific as they mow, but this seems to have happened during the positioning and not when the blades were engaged.
Another time it failed by walking under the deck and lost its signal. It should never go under the deck, but I think it has taken a shortcut into the pole position (I'm really sorry that this is really sorry).

You can also control the robot in the app to manually mow over difficult areas in which you think it can think. This is also a good feature to improve areas that need it. The mammotion app also offers view (FPV) from the first person so that you can check where your robot is at any time when it is stranded and you are not there to see him.
ZDNETS purchase advice
I am aware that these GPS robots make mistakes because this new technology is still perfected for the accuracy. Therefore, it generally doesn't mind doing this swallowing. But I think that Mammotion Luba 2 is much less susceptible to mistakes than the EcoFlow blade. I can count so much on Andretti to follow the map that I feel okay that it makes it mow the unknown lawn, even the keynote neighbor side, something that I would never do from the blade.
In addition: everything you need to improve your camping trip
Finally I love how quiet the Luba 2 is. One of the strangest things in a robot mower is that he takes care of the lawn so quietly that he can escape her termination. Overall, I recommend Mammotion Luba 2 for everyone who wants to get back from the lawn for a few hours on their weekends.
