Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD vs Husqvarna Automower 415X

Quick take: The Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD skips the boundary-wire install entirely while the Husqvarna Automower 415X needs a perimeter wire laid but doesn't care about tree cover or satellite signal; the Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD is all-wheel drive, which is what keeps a mower climbing a wet slope; the Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD is rated for a larger lawn (1 acre); the Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD is rated for steeper ground (84%); the Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD cuts taller (up to 3.5"), which matters for fescue and warm-season grasses; the Husqvarna Automower 415X has built-in cellular for GPS tracking and away-from-home control.

Pros & cons

Worx Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD

  • ✓84% slope rating is nearly triple the 2WD's and answers the traction complaints against it
  • ✓No RTK base station to site and no positioning subscription, ever
  • ✓WR344 ships with 4G, Find My Landroid GPS and the FiatLux light that the other tiers charge extra for
  • ✓Cut-to-Zero offset blade and electric height adjustment come standard
  • ✓Standard 20V Power Share battery and a 3-year warranty
  • ✗New this spring with no substantive hands-on US reviews yet; the slope rating is unproven
  • ✗WR341 and WR342 lack 4G, GPS tracking and the night light unless you add modules
  • ✗Heaviest Landroid at up to 39.9 lb, awkward to carry between separate lawns
  • ✗Costs as much as the LiDAR-equipped Luba 3 AWD for less rated coverage

Husqvarna Automower 415X

  • ✓Light 21-pound body squeezes through narrow passages and is easy to carry
  • ✓Electric cut height, GPS theft tracking, LED lights and cellular app control from the pricier X-line
  • ✓Owners report a half-day DIY wire install if the instructional videos are followed
  • ✓GPS-assisted mapping and systematic passage mowing cover small, complex yards evenly
  • ✓Sold and serviced through Husqvarna dealers with a 2-year warranty
  • ✗Durability complaints: warped cutting disks, lost front wheels and units that would not start after winter
  • ✗0.8 to 2 inch cut range is too short for tall fescue and bluegrass lawns
  • ✗62 dB is louder than most current wire-free rivals
  • ✗Short 50-minute runtime means frequent trips back to the dock
  • ✗Marked discontinued by Husqvarna; wire-free Navimow and Mammotion mowers cost the same or less
