The Robomow RK1000 robot mower is intended for medium-sized gardens (up to 1000 m²). This model with razor blades intends to stand out from the competition by its ability to cut grass up to 5 cm from a low wall.
Simple to set up, the Robomow RK1000 is certainly a very good robot mower, capable of ensuring quality mowing in a very efficient manner. Its ability to run along walls is a real plus for areas with low walls. However, we regret that it cannot be cleaned more simply and that the choice of Bluetooth somewhat limits the use of the connected features.

The second best quality/price ratio
The Robomow RK1000 Pro robot lawn mower is virtually identical to the classic RK1000 that we tested in detail. It differs only by the integration of a GSM module for sending error or theft notifications, as well as by the absence of supplies (stakes and perimeter wire).
