While my husband and I buy a house and my man insists that we need a backyard at least Two acres that I have little interest in maintaining, but I like the sound, I wonder how it would be nice to be able to have that beautiful backyard without having to do anything alone. Honda’s Grass Miimo is the answer to all my problems.
This adorable little robot is basically a Roomba, but for mowing the lawn. Like, I legitimately can’t get over how cute it is. It has gotten even better because it is functional; is being listed as able to cut 43,055 square feet, or just under an acre, and has been marketed as a way to help people with large plots of land or orchards.
It is literally like a Roomba. Before using it, you will need to set a limit, which you do with an electrical wire that can be buried. After that point, Miimo can mow the lawn without worrying about the world, bouncing off obstacles and maneuvering until the yard is clear. When he decides he is running out of battery, he fits on his charging base and is left with power for the second round.
And yes, you can even schedule to cut at certain times of the day. You can even set it up to work at night, as it is electric and does not make a lot of noise that will wake your neighbors.
That said, there are limitations. You cannot cut heavy grass that is more than ten centimeters high. You cannot climb a hill above 25 degrees. The price of the latest version is not available, but the old one still costs $ 2,500. And I have to ask myself how it would perform in adverse weather conditions, like in the rain or when it gets too hot.

You can send your interest with Honda until April 17th, but I have to imagine that this will be an exclusive product for Japan for its debut.
