    Coming to the end of my third summer with the robot and interested to see how long peoples are lasting before they start giving trouble. Rather than just age I thought usage stats might be better for comparing. How about sharing model, distance or hours use and any problems? Mine is:
    430x
    3 summers done
    4478hours running
    7093 km
    1696 charging cycles
    No problems so far...touch wood

    Initial outlay would be useful to compare to lifecycle too.

    Great Post.

    Since your mower has driven 7k+ km, have you had to do any form of servicing?

    Is there a rating for how many cycles the battery can take before degradation becomes significant?

    Ya I paid 2600 for it with a large installation kit. No servicing done other than changing the blades and clearing grass and dog hair off the wheels

    Almost identical stats for my 430x but in 2 years. All good so far👠One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. (1968 charging cycles, 7722kms, 4875hrs)
