Worx
Worx Landroid L WR155
The Landroid L is the half-acre version of the Worx wired platform: same chassis logic as the M, a wider 8 in blade disc and a bigger 5.0Ah (some kits ship 6.0Ah) 20V Power Share pack that swaps into any Worx tool. Worx lists it at $1,499.99 but it has been sitting near $1,000 on Amazon and under $750 at Walmart, which makes it the cheapest half-acre robot from a brand with a US support line. Expect four to six hours laying the 820 ft of included wire. In use it is a bump-and-turn random mower with Cut to Edge, a floating blade disc that copes with lumpy ground, a rain delay, and a 30% slope rating that reviewers flag as the lowest in its class, so skip it on rolling terrain. Reviewers report roughly an hour of mowing per charge, so a full half acre means several dock trips a day and a schedule that runs most days. Obstacle avoidance is a bumper unless you add the ACS ultrasonic kit. Compared with a Husqvarna Automower 415X you give up polish and dealer support for roughly half the price; compared with a Segway Navimow at similar coverage you keep the wire but keep $700 in your pocket. Best for budget-minded owners of flat, open half-acre lawns who would rather spend a Saturday pegging wire than pay for RTK.

Highlights
Pros
- ✓Lowest cost per acre of any name-brand half-acre robot, often near $1,000 or less
- ✓Widely stocked at big-box retailers, so returns and parts are easy
- ✓Floating blade disc self-levels over ruts and roots
- ✓Cut to Edge and rain delay are standard, not add-ons
- ✓Power Share battery doubles as a spare for other Worx tools
Cons
- ✗Roughly an hour per charge means a lot of dock trips on a full half acre
- ✗30% slope rating is the weakest in its price class
- ✗No obstacle avoidance beyond the bumper without the ACS kit
- ✗Wire install is a real afternoon-plus job and wire breaks are on you
Pros and cons above are drawn from the manufacturer’s spec sheet and published reviews; this model is too new for a body of owner reports.
Owner Insightssummarized from owner forums and retailer reviews
The Landroid L WR155 is the half-acre version of Worx's wired platform: same chassis logic and blade system as the Landroid M with a bigger 5.0Ah battery and a list price that sits well under the European half-acre mowers. Owners who bought it as a cheap way to stop riding a tractor mostly say it worked - it reaches places a tractor cannot, runs quietly at night, and the running costs are blades and a battery. The recurring caveat is that at this size the yard has to be prepared for the mower, not the other way round, and people who skipped that step describe a machine that needs rescuing daily.
Wire install for a half acre is a full day, and the 820 ft in the box may not cover a complicated perimeter. The long-term owner reports are consistent about what trips it: exposed roots, raised edging, trunks just above grade and soft ground, plus the occasional escape over the wire on a turn. Once the terrain is tamed it settles down and the two-plus hours per charge let it grind through a half acre in a day of sessions, though the random pattern still re-mows the same ground while a corner waits. Cut quality is the strong point - the offset disc trims close to edges, the floating deck avoids scalping, and lawns look better within a month. The app does the basics but owners call it clunky, schedule changes lag, and it only speaks 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.
It is best for a flat to gently rolling half acre where the owner will spend a weekend on wire and another clearing roots and dips, especially if Worx 20V batteries are already in the garage. Against the Gardena SILENO flex at $599 it covers more than twice the area with Wi-Fi and a rain sensor; against the wire-free Landroid Vision WR220 at $2,499 it does the same lawn for well under half the money if you accept the wire. Deal-breakers owners name: steep or soft ground where the wheels spin, a lawn with lots of exposed roots and edging, and needing Worx support to move fast when something fails.
What owners like
- +The 5.0Ah pack is the biggest in the Landroid family and owners get two to two and a half hours per charge, enough to actually finish a half acre across a day of scheduled sessions
- +Cheap enough that one long-term owner bought two for a one-acre yard and still spent less than a single premium mower - and had a spare running when one went in for repair
- +Blades are cheap, take minutes to change and are tougher than they look - owners hit stumps and rocks and just flip or swap them
- +Reaches under shrubs and along beds a tractor cannot, and one owner runs it on slopes he considered unsafe on a riding mower
- +The offset Cut to Edge disc leaves a neat line along driveways and beds; hands-on reviewers put the trimming saved at around three quarters
- +Quiet enough to schedule overnight so the lawn is done before anyone is awake
- +Once the yard is prepped and under control it is genuinely hands-off - three-month and multi-season owners describe checking on it a couple of times a week
- +Bump-and-turn works well enough on solid obstacles that a two-unit owner advises skipping the pricey anti-collision add-on
Common complaints
- −Gets stuck on ground clutter - roots, raised edging, trunks a couple of centimeters above grade, soft mud - and one four-summer owner reported stuck or out-of-bounds three or four times a day
- −Tries to climb things it cannot get back down from, and can drive over a magnetic strip and end up stranded on the wrong side
- −Expect a landscaping project first: one owner logged around 100 hours clearing roots, leveling and fencing before it ran unattended, and the first week on a 1,000 square meter zone took ten-plus hours of mowing a day
- −The random pattern cannot prioritize unmowed ground, so it re-mows the same area while a far corner waits
- −Wire breaks at sharp corners, and where the blades catch surface wire, are the most common service issue - and every one is an E1 error hunt across a half acre of perimeter
- −The app is clunky - multi-mower owners lost the swipe-to-switch gesture in an update, schedule changes lag, and 2.4 GHz-only Wi-Fi drops off mesh networks
- −The slope rating is optimistic: on wet grass or a real grade the stock wheels spin, and studded or off-road wheel kits are a common purchase
- −Warranty service can be slow - months-long waits for parts and unanswered emails come up repeatedly, though a few owners did get parts free

More from Worx
The Landroid S is the entry point to the Worx wired family: the same bump-and-turn platform as the M and L, shrunk to a 7.1 in three-blade disc, a 20V 2.0Ah Power Share pack and a 1/8 acre (5,445 sq ft) rating. Worx lists it at $999.99, which is hard to justify next to its own M at $1,199.99 list, but the street story is different - it has carried a $749.99 list at Amazon and Woot, open-box units have cleared around $630, and third-party reviewers quote it near $600, so treat the Worx price as a ceiling. The box is the full install kit: 820 ft of wire and 340 pegs, which is far more wire than an eighth-acre lawn needs. Once pegged it behaves like its siblings - AIA navigation through narrow passages without a guide wire, the off-center Cut to Edge blade, a self-leveling floating disc, a rain sensor, and 59 dB running. The trade-offs are a 30% slope ceiling, a 2.4 in maximum cut height that is too low for tall fescue, a small 2.0Ah pack that means frequent dock trips, and no obstacle sensing beyond the bumper. Against the Gardena SILENO flex at $599 with a 35% rating you pay more for the Worx app and battery ecosystem; against a Segway Navimow i105N at $799 you keep the wire but skip the RTK antenna.
Best for Small, flat lawns under an eighth of an acre whose owner already has Worx 20V tools and will buy on a street-price deal rather than at list.
The Landroid M is Worx's quarter-acre boundary-wire mower and, thanks to the 20V Power Share battery it shares with every other Worx tool, it is usually one of the cheapest ways into robot mowing that still comes with a real app. Worx lists it at $1,199.99, but it sells for around $900 on Amazon and Walmart has been clearing it below $800, so shop around. Setup is the classic wire job: 820 feet of wire and 340 pegs are in the box, and plan on an afternoon of pegging. Once running, the AIA algorithm handles narrow passages without a guide wire, the off-center blade genuinely cuts to the edge, the floating blade disc lifts over bumps, and at 59 dB it is quiet enough to run at night. The catch is what it lacks: no camera or ultrasonic sensor in the box, so it bumps into anything the wire does not exclude, and there is no GPS tracking unless you buy the Find My Landroid module. Against the Gardena SILENO flex at $599 you pay more for a 3.5 in top cut height and Wi-Fi control; against the wire-free Landroid Vision you save several hundred dollars but do the wire work yourself. Best for flat, fairly open yards under a quarter acre owned by someone who already has Worx batteries in the garage.
Best for Budget buyers with a flat, open lawn under a quarter acre who already own Worx 20V tools.
Vision Cloud is Worx's 2026 replacement for both the wired Landroid and the camera-only Landroid Vision: it keeps the cameras but adds RTK positioning delivered from the cloud over Wi-Fi or 4G, so there is no antenna to mount and no subscription, ever. Three 2WD tiers share one 31 lb three-wheel body with an 8.7 in deck, electric 1.57 to 3.54 in height adjustment, a 30% slope rating and a Cut-to-Zero offset blade: WR310.1 (1/4 acre, 4Ah, $1,199.99), WR320.1 (1/2 acre, 5Ah, $1,799.99) and WR340 (1 acre, 60 minute charger, built-in 4G and GPS module, $2,299.99). The WR310.1 has already sold at $999.99 on Amazon. Reviewers who ran it for a month call it the easiest robot mower they have installed, and one handed the app to parents in their seventies without trouble. It mows in selectable rows, then trims the border, and dodged tennis balls and jump ropes in testing but ran straight over a dog bone. The weak spot is traction: two driven wheels spun and dug holes on the edges of a 20 to 30 degree front yard and lost grip in thick edge grass, which is what the 4WD version exists to fix. The cameras also cannot see at night without the add-on FiatLux light. Against the Segway Navimow X315 at $1,999 the WR320.1 gives up 20 points of slope rating and a third camera to save $200; against Worx's own camera-only Vision AI WR220 at $2,499 list it adds mapping and straight rows for $700 less.
Best for Flat or gently sloped lawns up to an acre with tree cover, for owners who want a set-it-down install and already run Worx 20V batteries.
Landroid Vision is Worx's answer to the boundary-wire chore: no wire, no RTK antenna, no mapping drive. You set the dock on the grass, press go, and a 140-degree HDR camera with an onboard neural net decides what is lawn and what is not, treating the edge of the grass as the boundary. The 1/5-acre WR208 is the entry model; the WR210 is the same 33 lb machine rated for a quarter acre at $1,999.99 list. Pricing is all over the place: Worx lists the WR208 at $1,599.99, Amazon has it around $1,350, and Target and Worx have run it at $799.99. In use it is quiet at 59 dB, cuts to the edge with an offset blade, and will stop for pets, toys and hoses lying on the ground. Reviewers found the downward-pointing camera misses things above its sightline (a parked trailer, a playground slide) and that it needs a visible edge: where lawn meets mulch or a neighbor's grass without a curb, you stake down the included magnetic strip. Separate lawns need RFID tags and usually a carry between them. Versus an Eufy E15 or Segway Navimow i105 at similar money this is simpler to install but less precise and it mows in a random pattern; versus Worx's newer Landroid Vision Cloud (RTK plus camera, $1,799.99) it gives up mapping and systematic rows. Best for small, well-defined lawns where nobody wants to bury wire or plant an antenna.
Best for Small lawns with clear edges whose owner wants a set-it-down-and-go install and will accept random-pattern mowing.
The 4WD is the same Vision Cloud brain - cloud-delivered RTK with no antenna and no subscription, stereo cameras running V-SLAM, self-mapping Vision AI, Cut-to-Zero offset blade, electric 1.57 to 3.54 in height adjustment - moved onto a four-wheel-drive chassis with front-wheel steering and a body that flexes to keep all four tires on uneven ground. Worx rates it for 84% (40 degree) slopes against 30% for the 2WD, which matters because reviewers of the 2WD watched its drive wheels spin and dig on the edges of a 20 to 30 degree lawn. Three tiers on one 8.7 in deck: WR341 (1/4 acre, 4Ah, $1,999.99), WR342 (1/2 acre, 5Ah, $2,299.99) and WR344 (1 acre, 5A 60 minute charger, built-in 4G, GPS module and FiatLux night light, $2,999.99); the WR344 has sold for $2,399.99 on Amazon. It weighs 37 to 40 lb with the battery, several pounds more than the 2WD, and the 20V Power Share pack still swaps into any Worx tool. What it lacks in September 2026 is a track record: it shipped this spring and there are no substantive hands-on US tests yet, so the slope number is Worx's claim, and a 1 acre rating on a 5Ah pack implies long daily schedules. Against the Mammotion Luba 3 AWD, which pairs an 80% rating with 360-degree LiDAR from $2,109 on sale for its 3000 tier, the Worx costs about the same for less coverage but carries a big-box warranty and battery ecosystem.
Best for Steep, uneven or thick-grass lawns up to an acre, for buyers who want wire-free RTK from a big-box brand without mounting an antenna.
This is the bigger-lawn Vision, sold as the WR220 for half an acre with 3/4-acre (WR230) and 1-acre (WR235) siblings that share the same 33 lb body and 20V 4.0Ah pack and simply get longer daily schedules. List is a steep $2,499.99 to $3,499.99, and Worx has run the WR220 as low as about $1,100 during clearance, so watch for promos before paying full price. The pitch is identical to the smaller WR208: no wire, no RTK base station, no mapping session; the 140-degree HDR camera reads grass versus not-grass and treats that line as the boundary, while the same camera recognizes people, pets and objects on the ground and steers around them. It cuts to the edge with an off-center blade, has a rain sensor, and the optional Find My Landroid module adds 4G tracking. The compromises grow with the lawn: random-pattern mowing means it needs many more hours per week than an RTK mower to cover the same ground, split lawns still need RFID tags and a carry, and the camera struggles wherever there is no clear visual edge. For a half acre and up, a Mammotion Luba Mini AWD or Segway Navimow X3 will finish faster and mow in rows, and Worx's own Vision Cloud WR320.1 ($1,799.99) adds RTK for less money. Best for large, simple lawns with obvious edges where zero installation matters more than mowing speed.
Best for Owners of a large, open lawn with clear edges who want the simplest possible install and can wait on promo pricing.
