I was thinking more of a robot/robo e-mower

I could put the boundry wire out on the borders, and place
a charger in the corner. Then sit and watch it do its magic.
I just did my shopping/comparison on these, and wound up ordering a Husqvarna
Automower 315. My second choice was a Worx WR140.
The Husqvarna hasn’t arrived yet, so I can’t yet tell you how well it works, or
doesn’t.

I'm interested but don't think it will work for my situation. I look
forward to your reports. Perhaps you could make a blog post or
something detailing the situations the mower successfully and
unsuccessfully deals with? I'm especially interested in how it handles
heavy growth.
I am willing to devote about half an hour a day pushing a mower. Spring
growth has pushed that demand to an hour a day or longer. I have about
two acres that I attempt to keep mowed; it is never all mowed at one
time. I fear the effort to control and direct a robot would be beyond
it's value. Even if it has manageable control/direction requirements, I
fear there might not be enough time for it to make a dent in the task.
