Do Robot Mowers Cut the Edges of Your Lawn?

TL;DR: No robot mower produces the same clean edge as a string trimmer. Most robot mowers leave a 4-8 inch strip of uncut grass along borders, fences, and garden beds because the blades sit inward from the mower outer edge.

No robot mower produces the same clean edge as a string trimmer. Most robot mowers leave a 4-8 inch strip of uncut grass along borders, fences, and garden beds because the blades sit inward from the mower outer edge. Some models have edge mode that drives closer to boundaries, but you will still need to run a string trimmer along hardscape edges every 1-2 weeks.

This is the one maintenance task a robot mower does not eliminate.
