Garden overview highlighting a passage between lawn areas, a slope and an area beneath a tree. — AI illustration — Check passage width, slopes and conditions under trees on site. Also check access to the charging station. Circles mark things to assess, not automatic incompatibility with a navigation technology.

The area printed on a box is a maker claim under favourable conditions. It says nothing about your real garden with trees, beds, slope and separate zones. The first step is therefore to measure your lawn, not to read the box.

Measure the lawn, not the plot

The figure that matters is the area actually mowed: subtract terrace, paths, beds and buildings. That number sets the size class.

Leave headroom

Aim for a model rated at roughly twice that figure. The margin absorbs obstacles, slope and splitting.

Guides by area

Depending on your result: small lawn, around 500 m², around 1000 m².
