Seriously, though, this little garden gadget has some pretty impressive features, and it’s compact enough to be used in any outdoor area. So, whether you live in an inner-city flat with a shared green space or a country pile with rolling hills, count yourself a potential Miimo convert.
Here are some of the ways it brings gardening right up to date, and makes your life a whole lot easier in the process:
- It cuts where and when you choose – you can pre-set the Miimo to cut grass in five different zones of your garden, which means your garden will get an even trim with minimum human intervention. Its programmable timer allows you to choose when it mows and when it rests.
- You don’t need to charge it – amazingly, it will do this all by itself. If it runs out of battery during its pre-set cutting time, it won’t just give up the ghost. Instead, it will take itself to its docking station and re-charge for as long as it needs. Then it will get on with the job in hand.
- It’s touch-sensitive – you might have worries about a powerful little cutting machine racing around the garden, especially if you have kids and/or pets. Luckily the Miimo has a 360 degree floating cover which senses contact; the moment it does so, it automatically stops its blades and wheel motors. This means it won’t bash into anything so your belongings, loved ones, and the Miimo itself will be safe.
- It’s small but super-powerful – the Miimo can tackle slopes and inclines no problem, thanks to its 25-watt wheel motors. Its 56-watt blade motor allows it munch through thick grass with ease.
- It’s clean and tidy – mulching as it goes, the Miimo drops tiny particles (rather than big, unsightly clippings) onto the freshly mown grass, which act as a fertilizer. You’ll notice over time that using the Miimo actually helps to cut down on the presence of pesky weeds in your garden.
