About Robot Yard Guide

Independent buying guides for robot lawn mowers and pool cleaners, built around your yard.

By Robot Yard Guide Editors · Updated November 3, 2026 · 3 min read

Robot Yard Guide helps homeowners choose robot lawn mowers and robotic pool cleaners. These machines cost $500 to $3,000 or more, and the right one depends on details of your yard that spec sheets don't explain well. We try to close that gap.

How we choose what to recommend

  • Yard first. We group products by the lawn sizes, slopes, shade and pool types they suit, then compare within each group.
  • Specs checked at the source. Every spec and price comes from the maker's own product pages, and each guide shows the date it was last checked.
  • Outside evidence. We weigh independent reviews and long-term owner reports before recommending a model.
  • Honest limits. When a maker doesn't publish a number, we say "Not listed" instead of guessing.
  • Hands-on testing. We're adding our own test results over time, and each review says how it was evaluated.

How we make money

We earn commissions from some retailers and brands when readers buy through our links. Commission rates never affect our rankings. Read the full disclosure.
