Sunseeker L22 Plus Robotic Lawn Mower 0.6 Acre/ 26,000 Sq.Ft, with Mapping Function and App Control, Only 52 db,Rain Sensor & Boundary Wire, Battery & Charger Included, Black & White…

It was not clear that fence boundaries were not enough. You have to set up stakes and wires and have wifi for this to work. I tried to return and neither Amazon nor seller would refund my money. I now have mower still in box in my living room.

Reviewing SUNSEEKER L22 Robotic Lawn Mower 0.3 Acre/13,000 Sq. Ft., The section of our yard that needs mowed is small. The issue is that it’s sectioned off and is not one big square. It’s sectioned off into three distinct areas, with a tree in each area, some shrubs along the edges and patios in each section. I knew it would not be a simple to mark it off for this robot by reading the listing page, however, I was confident with some time put in up front, it would work well after the initial time investment. That was sort of a correct assumption. It took some time to map it all out with the wire (including the trees). Once I did get it all mapped out, I realized there are some areas that are best left off and done manually. I have one section with a seedling that I don’t want mowed over so I am completely avoiding that area with the mower, but everything else is working well. I don’t mind weed eating around the sapling. Better safe than sorry. Unfortunately, it is a lot of work to get the guide wire in place since our yard is not a perfect square with nothing in the middle. I knew it would be work, but not as much work as it was. We have two dogs, so we don’t run this on a schedule. We go out, pick up the poop and any branches/toys/twigs, etc, before manually starting a run cycle. We learned the hard way not to run this if the grass is damp or long, so you need to run it around your sprinkler schedule and not let the grass get too tall between mowing. The battery life is good for our yard, but again, the area we mow is quite small (less than 5000 feet). If you have a lot of shrubbery or trees, be sure you are willing to put in the initial time investment to map it all out at the beginning. Otherwise, you are going to be frustrated. If you do it properly in the beginning, make sure the yard is picked up before each mow cycle, and make sure the grass is dry and not too all, you will be rewarded with hassle free upkeep of your yard. Rating 3 stars because of the initial frustration trying to map around trees, etc. I feel if it worked like a vacuum cleaner, where you can mark off no go zones, rather than using a guide wire, this would be excellent, but it’s hard enough to set up, that I feel a lot of people would rather return it.

Have used this robot lawn mower for the last 6 month. I selected this model after lots of research and chose it due to it's advertised capabilities and overall value. Unfortunately I have been disappointed as it has not lived up to its advertised capabilities. Pros - 1) cuts well 2) it's very quiet (ninja quiet) 3) will return to it's base when rain is detected and resume cutting once the rain has passed 4) Looks good Cons - 1) Doesn't consistently maintain it's programmed schedule (have to manually start the cutting process >80% of the time) because it 'drops offlne' eventhough it remains connected to our wi-fi network 2) Doesn't actually show a map of your yard in the App as advertised by the manufacturer 3) Often gets stuck for no apparent reason 4) Frequently gets stuck on tree roots 5) Doesn't execute edge cutting on programmed days. 6) Can't program zones for cutting various areas of your lawn as advertised by the manufacturer 7) No response from the manufacturer to questions or concerns submitted via the feedback feature in the app.

The short version: Sunseeker L22 is reliable, seems to be built well, and operates extremely quietly. Those who envision a perfectly manicured lawn may be disappointed in its completely random mowing pattern. Set up was generally simple with the exception of installing the boundary wire. The instructions say to stake it every 3 feet on top of the ground, however we chose to bury the wire. My husband used a pick axe to trench a 2" deep path around the yard. This made it look better than having the wire on top of the ground but it was a time consuming job, nearly 6 hours for our 1/5 acre yard. But, this allows us to use our riding mower if necessary without fear of cutting the wire. Otherwise, setting up the mower and the interface with the app was very easy. You do have to make sure you have 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. After using it for over a month, here are some observations: If you like your lawn striped like a baseball field or want it perfectly manicured, this probably isn't for you. That's because the mower uses random patterns and doesn't mow a specific section to completion. It takes about 16 hours to complete our yard, so in that process there are small patches here and there which have slightly longer grass. Our mowing schedule is 4 hours per day, 4 days a week. I wish I could make it complete an area in the front of the house before moving on to the side and back yards but it wanders all over. Although it isn't a major height difference, these patches are noticeable. It took about 4 weeks of mowing for it to map our yard. Once the yard is mapped in the app, there are starting points that you are able to change the percentage on, however the instructions for doing this are not very clear. Currently experimenting with this to see what effect changing those percentages has. My husband did use the in-app feature to contact customer support. He mentioned that he liked that he was able to attach photos. It took nearly a week but he did receive a response and all of his concerns were addressed. His main concern was that the rain delay sensors appeared to not be working properly, but since contacting support the issue seems to be resolved. The mower runs for about 2.5-3 hours and then when it gets to 25%-30% charge it will return back to the charging station. We found it works well to run for about 2 hours, return to charge, then run another 2 hours on the days we have it mow. It has been extremely reliable and has only had to be rescued in the yard twice-one time because it caught a large twig, the other time it was unclear what caused it. For the most part, it avoids obstacles but our yard is surrounded by trees and after a storm we had a lot of twigs blown down. My husband does have concerns about how it will handle the leaves in the fall. The blades are small but easy to change and inexpensive. With all that said, the obvious benefit to this mower is the time it saves in the long run. We will still need to do some trim work, but we would have needed to do that anyway. Mowing our lawn with the riding mower wasn't a long job, but our schedules left us only weekends free, and then if it rained the yard was looking pretty wild by the next weekend. The Sunseeker really can be set to mow any time of day or night, it is so quiet that it operates in near stealth mode.
