The RoboUp Raccoon 2 SE really didn't do everything perfectly in our test. In particular, the chaotic or random approach to larger areas up to 500 square meters is at the expense of efficiency and thoroughness. There are also a few deductions when it comes to obstacle detection, although the manufacturer could certainly make improvements here with software updates. In addition, the possible applications are limited due to the specifications. However, we must undoubtedly put this in relation to the very reasonable price of this compact robot lawn mower, which does not require a boundary wire or RTK station. If we take this into account, the RoboUp Raccoon 2 SE positions itself as a less than perfect, but very affordable solution It is interesting for all owners of smaller gardens with clear boundaries who no longer want to mow the lawn themselves and don't want to spend too much money. It is also exciting for anyone who doesn't want a robotic lawnmower with an app.

Pros

  • + favorable price
  • + easy operation with or without app
  • + no RTK or cable required
  • + solid obstacle detection

Cons

  • - chaotic navigation
  • - requires a closed lawn area
  • - usual weakness at the edge
