Does anyone have much experience with robot lawnmowers? I've been considering one, but trying to find info now involves digging through a lot of AI slop.

Id prefer one that plays nicely with HA, as well as not internet dependant. It's also for a small garden (50m²).

The best bet I've seen so far is to modify a yardforce mower with open mower. What other (good) options are there?

I want one, but I can’t justify spending so much money on avoiding cutting my grass. I’ve not seen a decent option within my budget (max of like $400) and I doubt I will for a long time to come.

There are options around that price, but they have issues.
