Robomow Rasenroboter Premium RS 612, PRD6100A (tool)

Customer Review

I bought the RS612 one year ago (2014 to 1745). My conclusion: really great, but a few quirks or say annoyances.
There things were loudly promised that were not ferrtig but to delivery.

Basically, I would never buy me back a classic mower. This one mows the 800m ^ 2 and saves me a lot of time and effort.
I have deliberately chosen a larger model on the purchase, to keep the wear and tear of wearing parts low. It was also important to me all the spare parts online - without a local dealer, so to refer to himself installing. If you google properly, you can find various shops and forums that provide / describe exactly. Used I have not yet because the part simply runs.

For laying the wire I have no 2h needed. The installation help can save with trained eye. Why do we need a support from the customer service, I am also a mystery. With common sense, the device is easy.

The security is ridiculous. The silent beeper does not belong to and the disconnection can be done without user code with a "rotary motion". Fortunately, the home insurance covers this case from me.

The operation is very simple and with a few simple steps, everything is set up on the device. This and more can be read anywhere.

But what bothers me are two things that I just do not understand in the price.
The free app is not free of errors, always requires Internet access, an idiotic user administration and took almost a year until she was on Android at all usable. They can only be used on a mobile device! The installation of two devices requires that the account is deleted on the other device. That caution also when updating the software or when buying a new mobile phone. In this case, I can tell you a thing, it can happen that you can no longer use his account and a customer service representative (lasted 4 weeks at me) must be the account reset! Why? Because not only deleted on the old device, the app, but also the user account must be deleted manually.

If one (important only BT 4 / Android 4.3 or goes higher) wants to connect now via Bluetooth, the mower needs to plug into the base and you should stick by phone or tablet in a UMTS / WLAN network. If that is not the case in the garden, bleats the app. Just great - if you just mow without an internet connection wants.

On top of that it quite often comes to updates of the app (- speak the bugs in PlayStore flat volumes). Since the app but will only work if it is current, you need to update in the garden first time necessarily. If that does not work in the garden because of lack of Internet connection, only the rage does not increase the fun factor. Now you might think, what heaven for all an App? Quite simply, the robot is heavy and should over the winter - are kept in a warm place - because of the battery. No problem - by App kannn you steer to his hibernation position via remote control it easily. A good idea - if it is implemented properly.

Now the deduction Sterner number 2, a firmware update is only possible from dealer for about 20. What shoud that? What bothers me is not the price, but the expense. The car is not yet that I have to go to the TÜV. Nearly every instrument can be updated with little clicks today. In a modern lawnmower robot is not it? A primitive RS232 / USB cable could connect and connect to the PC. But it is not offered by the manufacturer, the firmware does not. Everyone who buys the little machine online should be prepared, that he a) has a local dealer or b) it sends before mowing season on its online shop, which then performs this update procedure. Complicated as it gets. Because of an update I proceed no 40km by car or mailing it for weeks by parcel. The RS will work!

Now it is not so that the robot without the updates does not work properly. From Auslieferungstzustand 2014 the description, the accessories I etc.war - even at the price - very satisfied. After installation, the Robomow, mowed the verwinckelten garden excellent.

But just mowed stupid. By updating the firmware of 2014 2015, which would have been smaller quirks Fixed.
By the way, the model 2014 is similar to the 2015er - only the Softwarew is current - keyword: "Smart Mow"
