Lymow

Painful start, but wow what a machine.

When I first created this review I gave Lymow 1 star out of 5. This was because my new mower worked for 1 week before an OTA update bricked it. It had to be sent back and it took about 6 weeks before I had a working mower again, albeit a new machine, this period was very frustrating as the 'support' service from Lymow was painful. Lymow are well aware of what I think of their 'support', which needs to be improved. So why did my review change? Over the period of about 2 weeks I found several small quirks to this machine. I had to adjust the RTK station position and make it taller - I did this by attaching the upper ground mount pole to the top the wall mount. This change improved the RTK significantly, I have a lot of trees and despite some initial problems it is working well and is not getting stuck. The next issue was that grass kept clogging the discharge hole - in this case Lymow's clever design meant I could remove 3 components, each making the discharge vent larger. Now the grass flies out and I am delighted. Another issue was that the Lymow started to malfunction and randomly trigger an 'emergency stop' or lift up the mowing deck in the middle of a mow. I realised it was getting damp as we had a terribly wet late May/early June - I built a basic shelter for lymow, so now it is not sitting out exposed in the rain. The design of the stop button or the LCD screen is not water proof, at least not for Irish weather. Anyway another issue fixed. Finally, the tracks started to make an annoying knocking noise - look up YouTube and the fix is easy. The track tension needs to be adjusted. In summary, I am now delighted with my Lymow. It is capable of cutting my whole lawn of about 2,500m2 in a single day, I could likely schedule it to maintain a lawn 3 times this size. I cannot say this enough, the machine is built like a tank, it is amazing, and is so easy to work on. Everything is adjustable and can be changed to suit you very easily. So Lymow lose one star as your support needs to be better, but the machine and the results are now outstanding. This is my third machine. I started with an Ambrogio but the buried cables were a pain. I upgraded to a Mammotion LUBA 2 which was good but the battery was too small and the blades did not last long which meant frequent maintenance. Fingers crossed third time is a charm but I think I am on to a winner.
