The virtual perimeter meant zero digging and I've got blades for years. Set it and forget it.

Love being stocked on blades and skipping the buried wire. App had a couple hiccups early on but a firmware update smoothed it out.

Ran an Automower for years and the boundary wire was a constant headache, always getting nicked by the aerator or a stray shovel. The S4's wire-free perimeter solved that overnight. On top of that, ordering it with the three-year blade kit means I'm covered on consumables through 2029. The LiDAR mapping is a clear generation ahead of what I was using. Very glad I switched.

The three-year blade kit is what pushed me to this exact listing. I hate reordering little consumable parts, so having blades stocked for years is exactly the peace of mind I wanted. The mower itself handles my wire-free perimeter flawlessly and the LiDAR never loses its place under the trees.

Lots of trees and a gentle slope out back. The S4 maps it all with the LiDAR and never gets confused in the shade like my old GPS unit did. Blades stocked for years is just gravy.

Long-term blade supply in one purchase is genuinely smart. I won't be scrambling for replacements every season. The wire-free setup was painless too.

Two annoyances gone in one purchase. The perimeter is entirely virtual so there's nothing to nick with a spade, and the blade kit means no recurring orders. Setup took me about 22 minutes. It's been mowing flawlessly ever since.

Really good mower and I love being set on blades for three years. My one constructive gripe: on a mild slope by my back gate it slipped and spun a little when the grass was still wet from overnight rain, leaving a scuffed patch. On dry grass it climbs the same spot fine. I've since set it to mow later in the morning and the issue's mostly gone, but a wet-grass traction mode would be a nice addition.

No trenching, no buried wire to break, no boundary cable to hunt for every spring. You walk the edge once and it remembers. After years of fighting perimeter wire on my old system this feels like magic. The three-year blade supply sealed the deal for me — I like buying once and being done.

No issues with the cut, the LiDAR, or the wire-free boundary — all excellent, and knowing I'm stocked on blades for years is a nice feeling. Only thing I'd improve is charge time; on my quarter acre it takes a couple of charge cycles to finish on a hot day. Still gets it done.

The three-year blade kit is a genuinely practical add and the wire-free perimeter setup was easy. Only reason it's four stars is the app dropped my schedule once and I had to re-enter it. Happened a single time and hasn't repeated, but worth mentioning. The mower's cut quality and shade handling are excellent, no complaints there.

Spent 30 years mowing my own lawn on weekends. Now the S4 does it, no wires to install, and with the three-year blade kit my son doesn't have to keep ordering parts for me. It's quiet, it's tidy, and my grass looks better than when I did it myself. Should've done this sooner.

Corner lot with a canopy of elms over half of it. The LiDAR maps under the trees without a hiccup and the wire-free boundary meant I didn't have to dig up my landscaping. Having three years of blades on the shelf is just a stress I get to skip.

Thinking long term, buying the mower with three years of blades up front just made sense to me and I'm happy with the decision. The wire-free perimeter is fantastic. My one small nitpick is that my very first blade replacement took a little trial and error to seat correctly, though after that it's second nature. Everything else has been smooth and the yard looks sharp.

My folks aren't going to reorder blades online every year, so the three-year kit made this the obvious choice for them. Set it up during a weekend visit, showed my dad the app once, and they're completely self-sufficient now. Great peace of mind for the whole family.

Wire-free perimeter meant no digging up my yard. Up and running in under half an hour.

Bought the version with the 3-year blade kit and it's the best kind of boring — I never have to think about ordering replacements. Pop a fresh set in when they dull, done, and I've got enough to last through 2029.

Stocked on blades for the long haul and the mower just works. Exactly what I hoped for.

Don't have to remember to reorder blades for three years. That's the whole review.

I'll start with the good because there's a lot of it — the LiDAR is fantastic under my shaded lot and the spare blades are a practical bundle. Three stars is really about the app's mapping walk: the on-screen guidance during the first setup was vague about how tight to hug the edges, and I ended up redoing part of it to get the boundary right. Once I figured out the rhythm it was fine, but a clearer step-by-step or a short video in the app would've saved me the redo.

No regrets on the combo. Blades swap tool-free and the cut is clean. Only reason it's four stars: my initial mapping walk took closer to 35 minutes because I have an oddly shaped lot with a lot of garden beds to route around. Once mapped, it's flawless. The spares are a genuinely useful add.

Quiet, clean, wire-free, and I've got blades for three years. What's not to love.

I'm the type who forgets to reorder consumables until the machine's already struggling. The 3-year kit removes that entirely — I've got labeled sets ready to go. Cut stays clean because I actually swap on schedule now.

The mower and the whole wire-free experience are excellent — mapping walk was easy and the cut is even under my oaks. Tiny gripe: the spare blades come in a simple pack with no real storage case, so I tossed them in a labeled bag on my workbench so they don't wander off. Would love a little case. Everything that matters is five-star.

The three-year blade supply is genuinely reassuring and the wire-free setup was painless. It does leave a slightly longer strip right against my fence line that I trim by hand once a week — not a dealbreaker, just setting expectations for anyone with a lot of tight edges.

Simple math for me: dull blades mean a bad cut, and waiting on a shipped part means downtime. The included spares fix both. Mower's been reliable and the shade navigation is genuinely better than I expected.

Mom's yard is small but ringed with mature trees, and she can't push a mower anymore. The S4 with the blade kit was perfect — I set it up in one visit, showed her the app, and left the spare blades in her garage so I can swap them next time I'm over without ordering ahead. The LiDAR means it doesn't strand itself in the shade, which was my big worry. She's thrilled and I'm relieved.

Our HOA is picky about lawn appearance and this keeps mine looking trimmed and even all week, not just after a Saturday mow. The blade kit is the only 'maintenance' I do and it's a two-minute job. Nice not to be the house with the shaggy shade patch anymore.
