- ✓Cheapest way into the Husqvarna dealer and parts ecosystem, often $300 versus a $700 list price
- ✓High 2 to 3.6 inch cut range suits fescue and bluegrass lawns that budget robots scalp
- ✓Very quiet at 58 dB; owners say it does not disturb neighbors or sleeping dogs
- ✓4G app control from anywhere with no subscription, unlike the Bluetooth-only 115H
- ✓Light 21-pound body is easy to carry back when it does get stuck
- ✗Boundary and guide wire install takes a weekend and owners say the wire eventually breaks
- ✗Random bounce pattern with no GPS assist leaves visible misses on larger lawns
- ✗Manual cut-height dial and no GPS theft tracking
- ✗Multiple owners report it stopping short of the dock and needing a push
