【Jerome Deeds Archives】

Attention lazy home owners everywhere: you never have Jerome Deeds Archivesto cut your grass again if you don't want to. You can now buy a robotic lawnmower to do the work for you.

Robo lawnmowers are to grass what the Roomba is to carpets and floors. Just set it and forget as they say, and let the little hard-working bot make your lawn presentable to the neighborhood.

According to the ad for the Honda Miimo model, the lawnmower will give you more time to practice your cannonballs, prepare for a barbecue, and overall, let robots take over humanity.

But if you think you can pick up one of these bad boys up for the price of a Roomba, think again. According to Country Living, the Honda Miimo sells for a steep $4,299, but there are "cheaper" versions of the robot such as the Robomow for $1,299 and the Worx Landroid for $999.

You can adjust the height of the rotating blades to fit your lawn's needs via phone app or a separate remote control, and the machine has sensors to avoid say, a child's toy or a lounging stray cat. Barriers created by low-voltage wires keep the mower corralled within your lawn, and it also deposits clippings from it's mowing sessions back onto the lawn as fertilizer.

The Miimo can run for 30 to 70 minutes before having to return to it's discreet docking station. And if you're worried about someone robbing your robot friend from your lawn, don't be - it's equipped with an alarm that goes off when it's picked up.

There are some drawbacks to lying on the couch while your robot does all the work. According to Curbed, these robots don't mow as consistently as a regular lawnmower, they mow in erratic paths that don't produce the same pretty grid patterns, and lots of them miss the lawn's edge and have to run multiple times a week to keep the clippings from getting unruly. And they're REALLY expensive.

If you think this should've been invented a long time ago, we think so, too. What did we do before the robotic lawnmower graced us with its presence?

Oh yeah, we cut the grass ourselves.
