Raccoon 2 SE: TechRadar’s Take on Simple, Wire-Free Lawn Care
If you’ve ever thought about getting a robot mower but dreaded complicated setups, boundary wires, or expensive GPS systems, the Raccoon 2 SE from RoboUP might be the solution. TechRadar recently tested this budget-friendly robot mower and highlighted how it brings simplicity and convenience to small garden owners.
Raccoon 2 SE’s Plug-and-Play Simplicity
TechRadar notes that the Raccoon 2 SE doesn’t require any boundary wires or RTK satellite positioning. You simply place it on your lawn, press the start button, and it begins mowing automatically. No complicated configuration or App is necessary, making it perfect for anyone who wants a truly hassle-free experience.
Ideal for Small Gardens
Raccoon 2 SE is designed for gardens up to 500m² (5,400 sq. ft.) and can maneuver through narrow paths as tight as 80cm. TechRadar highlighted how the Raccoon 2 SE easily handled two different test gardens without any special adjustments, proving its versatility in small, irregularly shaped spaces.
Quiet, Gentle & Eco-Friendly
TechRadar praises the mower’s low noise, reporting levels under 50-55 dB, far more quiet than traditional lawn mowers. Its cutting blades are also gentle on grass and small garden wildlife, offering a more eco-friendly approach to regular lawn maintenance.
Affordable Convenience
With early-bird Kickstarter pricing, TechRadar notes that the Raccoon 2 SE delivers much of the convenience of high-end, wire-free mowers at a fraction of the cost. This makes it an attractive option for budget-conscious homeowners who don’t want to compromise on ease of use.
Who the Raccoon 2 SE Is For
Based on TechRadar’s review, the Raccoon 2 SE is ideal for:
· Owners of small to medium-sized gardens (up to 500 m²) with defined borders.
· People seeking a low-maintenance, easy-to-use lawn solution without setup stress.
· Homeowners who value quiet operation for a relaxed, unobtrusive mowing experience.
· Budget-conscious buyers looking for a wire-free, plug-and-play mower.
A True Set & Forget Garden Experience
TechRadar concludes that the Raccoon 2 SE delivers on its promise for being a simple, quiet, and affordable robot mower for small gardens. While it’s not designed for large, complex lawns, it excels where it counts, providing stress-free, wire-free mowing that keeps your lawn tidy with minimal effort.
For anyone wanting a set it and forget it approach to garden care, the Raccoon 2 SE is a compelling choice. It’s easy to install, quiet, and surprisingly gentle on your lawn.
