Total time saving and game changer
Purchased the Luba 2 3000X to mow 3 quarter acre properties, one with a lot of gum trees and it has exceeded my expectations. Super easy to install and get up and running. So far I’d highly recommend this product.

The best of the world.
Mote than I expected.

So far it has exceeded my expectations!
I have slopes on three sides of my property. It has become difficult for me to mow these with my push mower. I hoped that the Luba 2 would solve this. I have only had it for a week but is has mowed all 3 areas, I was struggling with. Setup was straightforward and I actually mowed in front of the house same afternoon.

Exactly like having a teenage son. Lawn mowing as a time-saving adventure!
What an amazing device. I've only owned it for about a month, but I've mowed the lawn about 12 times. There's so much more that this thing should (and probably will) be able to do... there's obviously an active and aggressive development effort on Mammotion's part.

It's just a barrel of fun, but pretty frustrating sometimes with an obscure and complex iPhone app, a too-touchy mapping facility that seems to wander into the weeds now and then. I'm a super-senior, but I've already built a charging station patio and a channel through a garden and re-mapped all my areas at least twice. If you want to be through with the back-breaking part of mowing in exchange for training an enthusiastic child, get one of these.

Unique most helpful device
Luba 2, we named Gromit (Wallace & Gromit - he is the smart in technical knowledge one), provides excellent support for a needed application. Our lawn has a 5+ % grade. Such a grade on complex slopes creates a situation where manual mowing becomes an unpleasant and a few times an unsafe experience. Our lawn is 1/2 acre (U.S.). Luba 3000 is a serviceable fit for the application since it is rated above what the task creates.

Mammotion is attentive and knowledgeable. They provide a comforting supportive customer experience. More than once, support moved the problem out of the way. Access is quick and meaningful. Your staff show honesty and pride in your products.

Principally, connectivity and update issues are what is experienced. Today while Luba 2 was mowing, the RTK POS went steady blue and Luba 2 went into positioning mode meaning it was searching for spatial orientation. Support promptly forwarded the problem to the department, and we will watch for an email. Having the Luba 2 10 days, this is the first time for the occurrence.

Overall, the heftiness and sturdy construction for the price point is most appreciated. Yet, the robustness of operation is clearly there. Tremendous battery, see attach Mammotion map. I can depend on the product for the application.

Grass like time doesn't wait. Thank you for the build quality in your products and superior packaging.

Mammotion like there products is going places.

I LOVE my LUBA 10000 !!!
I have 2.37 ACRES (minus the footprint of three buildings.) I was able to program the robot easily, and I am so IMPRESSED by its performance! I loved it so much, I bought a SECOND LUBA 10000, which ill be delivered in a few days. I can then split the task between front lawn/driveway and rear lawn/field, and let them work together to make my neighbors GREEN with envy!

Get it!
Since I have 3/8 Black Lava rock path with small incline to get from the backyard to the front, I went with Luba 2. My first choice was the cheaper Navimow 999.00 but because of the incline AWD was needed.
RTK signal was immediately solid green mounted in the backyard shed after a few minutes. No issue with the Luba Dock on the side of the house where the only grass is located. Thanks to Hezehiah Domowski on the Youtube videos, I was ready to go when FedEx delivered.
Wi-Fi connected with no issue but had to reboot the Luba, turn off then on, when the updated failed immediately. Luba came with zero charge so had to wait to 30% before I could update. Once reset the two updates went fast.
I grabbed a T-Mobile SIM and subscribed to 5.00 tablet plan with 500GB plan added to my account incase I need to locate a stolen Luba 2. That worked!
Now had to map the yard, screwed up the first time deleted and did it again for both backyard and front. Added a pathway over the 3/8 Black Lava and started a Task. The task had the Luba go to the front yard and cut first after going through the pathway. Then complete the front go back through the pathway and cut the backyard. Once in the backyard I closed and locked the gate Luba finished it cut by itself! Unit completed and returned to the dock.
The Luba handled the loose 3/8 Black Lava rock even as it was slipping down a little the AWD kicks in and it continues. While the Luba was cutting, I was edging and watching the Luba do it’s thing. Neighbors stop and watch and I was done with my part then continued to the plants and the trees.
RTK signal is always “FINE”
LUBA signal is “FINE or WEAK”
Positioning status “FIX” but I see it go “Floating”

If you have the money and want some lawn help, then I highly recommend!

5 star product
The Luba 2 is an excellent robotic mower; I highly recommend.

SETUP
- the box is heavy! Get help to move it or use a hand truck
- it’s packaged extremely well
- it took me about 30 minutes to unbox, find a temporary place for the charging station and RTK, and update firmware
- BEWARE, it doesn’t support 5ghz WiFi, so I needed to walk about 100 feet away from my mesh system to force it to join 2.4ghz
- the mobile app is well designed. Setup your perimeter, add any no go zones, and it is ready to mow

MOWING
- it does an excellent job mowing. You can fully configure the cutting setting including path direction, height, spacing, speed, etc.
- it is a hill climber. When they say 80% grade, it really can climb it
- there are 3rd party parts available if you want to mow lower than 1 inch. I reel mow my Bermuda grass yard at 1/2 to 5/8 inches, so I ordered a spacer kit

MISC
- after a few days, I decided to permanently mount the RTK to my fence. I used 10 bucks worth of hardware from a big box store. BEWARE: once you move the RTK, you will need to remap everything
- I am having an electrician install an outlet close to the base station so I don’t have to run extension cords
- the RTK can plug in separately, or into the base station power
- I ordered a 4g SIM card so I can use it up to 1.86 miles from the base station. It also allows you to view the video feed when it’s not on WiFi (my mesh system works well, covering most if not all 3/4 acres). Mammotion says it uses about 200mb a month if you don’t view the camera (several GB if you do)
- you want to keep at least 6 inches from any objects when you map, so it doesn’t hit objects when it turns around
- I’m cutting out a spot in my fence, so it can leave the backyard
- battery life is good. It returns home at 15% and recharges to 80% before resuming an unfinished task
- you can setup a number of schedules to automate your mowing jobs
- I installed artificial turf around the base station, so it doesn’t tear up the ground when it does a 180 degree turn to park
- there are documented steps on social media of users replacing the battery which is plug and play after removing the top cover. Currently it appears that some dealers are able to sell replacement batteries.

I’m super excited about the mower. I am in the process of selling my 3 greenmaster and reelmaster reel mowers.

Best my back yard has ever looked, and I didn't even break a sweat.
It was easy to set up and has worked great so far. My only issue is with the perimeter, I had to add a bit of padding around the edges so it wouldn't hit the fence, or anything else along the perimeter, even though I definitely did not hit anything when setting up the perimeter. I just use it in manual when the edges get tall enough to worry about, also used vegetation killer along fence line. No problems so far, but have only had it about a month.

I absolutely hated mowing my back yard, it is sloped and a lot of work, so it went a few weeks between mowing, which likely made it even harder on me, but now it gets mowed at least once a week, the big section, which seems to grow the fastest, twice a week.

Have a couple spots where satellite connection is shady, literally, but it hasn't stopped like the luba 1 would. I moved my luba 1 to another property, brother's house, where there are no trees in the yard.

I am very happy with it, at least so far.

Exceeding expectations in some areas - needs improving but OTA updates seem to be coming
I am giving this product 5 stars as there are no comparable products on the market as of now. I waited for years for iRboto (the makers of Rumba) to come up with a wire-free mower but that project seems to be if not dead, not going anywhere.

LUBA 2 is a real deal and it needs work in both software as well as the hardware area.

Setting it up was very easy.

RTK transceiver
============
I made the mistake of installing the RTK transceiver too close to the wall. It worked OK but the GPS drift has become immediately obvious after setting up a few zones. So install it as far away from obstructions as possible. I simply moved it to the outer railing of my deck and it seems to have improved the precision drastically.

Charging port
===========
If you have a concrete driveway and thinking of installing a charger there (makes the most sense to keep it relatively dirt and bug-free, as well as easy for docking), there are no anchors included for concrete so you have t come up with some washers and concrete tap screws - not the end of the world but would have been nice if they included the factory set. (Hey Mammotion, perhaps come up with a kit and send it to me - will test out out for ya ;) ). Otherwise, it comes with long plastic screws that can be used to anchor the charger to the ground. I would be concerned about UV deterioration in the mid-term of these screws.

The charging base has a slot and electrical connection for the RTK as well so if you choose to install it there, yo won't need to use two separate power supplies, which is nice. Unfortunately at my location, I needed to cover a large backyard, and installing the RTK by the charger wouldn't have given me good coverage. Besides, adding RTK to the charging base slot would only work over dirt, not concrete - something Mammotion may want to think about. The charging base is a relatively thin plastic and I am a bit concerned about its durability, especially when installed above dirt as over time from UV exposure it will likely become brittle. An aluminum base would be an improvement here.

LUBA 2 charges surprisingly fast! It charged from 15% to 100% I want to say within an hour - wasn't able to get the exact time as I wasn't expecting such fast performance. I was moving a large and complex area and it had to charge twice - nice to have fast charging for situations like this.

Planning your first cut
=================
App is pretty intuitive. Basically, you would "Add" an area and LUBA 2 will prompt you to drive it to the starting point, where you will start mapping your zone. Simply steer using on-screen circular "joysticks" on your phone. Left control is for Forward/Reverse thrust, and right control is turning. Simply drive your LUBA 2 around the perimeter of your first cut site and once you complete the circuit, you have the option to save it. Once saved, you can apply numerous presets and customizations, cut height, pattern, etc. You can also set-up a schedule against the specific area. If the battery drains below 15%, LUBA 2 will mark the spot on your app and will navigate to the charger (See "Planning channels" below).

Planning Channels
==============
No one wants a runaway mower or for it to cross places you don't want it to cross. Just like adding cut or no-go sites, you can drive LUBA2 to a site and create a connection (called Channel), to another site or the charger. It was fascinating to watch LUBA 2 coming back to the base to recharge. It will drive to the base, will do a zero turn, and back into it slowly but confidently. The voice prompt will alert you that it is now charging. It will also need channels if you want for LUBA 2 to hop between the areas for moving. Just be sure to create a channel back to the charger from each site, so that LUBA 2 can come back for a juice break if it needs to.

No-Go zones
==========
This one is pretty important. Having used Roomba and LUBA 2 having bumper as well as visual object detection and avoidance, I was under the impression that it would automatically stay away from the fences. On my very first test run, LUBA 2 got stuck its wheel on the channel post I use to protect my young trees from deer. It broke a piece of "rim" on the wheel. Mammotion was very responsive and they are shipping me a replacement. While this didn't affect the operation, no doubt there is unnecessary friction from the sharp broken rim and this may degrade the cut time/range. But I digress - absolutely do go ahead and set up the no-go zones around large walls or obstacles where LUBA 2 can get caught or get stuck. Adding a no-go zone works very similarly to the Site planning. Simply drive your mower to the
cut area, tap to start mapping the go zone, and drive around the obstacle you want to exclude. It will create a yellow area for the no-go zone.

Hills
====
One of the main reasons I purchased this mower is because I have an impossible hill behind my house that is a pain to cut with a ride-on or a walk-behind mower. LUBA 2 is amazing!...
