Best Black Friday robot lawn mower deals

The robot lawn mower has gone from an extremely niche product to approaching mainstream acceptance over the past couple of years, especially among homeowners with larg yards to maintain. But much of this growth in sales has to do with prices, as entry-level models have dropped to less than $1,000.
Since fewer people shop for lawn mowers as winter approaches, manufacturers have been offering significant discounts to spur sales, and Black Friday is putting that effort into overdrive. We’ve even seen one model priced less than $300—that’s about the same price as a push mower!
That model won’t be suitable for every yard, of course, but we’ve spotted lots of other deals, which we’ve organized below into three groups: Budget, mid-range, and high-end. For each deal, we include the size of lawn the mower is capable of handling, along with the navigation tech it uses: vision, real-time kinetics (RTK), or GPS (read our guide on how robot mowers navigate for more information).
- Yardcare V100 Robotic Lawn Mower (vision, 0.2 acres) $299.99 at Amazon (40% off)
- Yardcare M800 Plus (GPS/vision, .5 acres) $592.79 at Amazon (26% off)
- Mammotion Yuka Mini 500H Robotic Lawn Mower (RTK/vision, 0.12 acres) $649.00 at Amazon (35% off)
- Segway Navimow i105n (GPS/Vision, .16 acres) $699.00 at Amazon (30% off)
- Ecovacs Goat O1000 RTK Robot Lawn Mower (RTK, .25 acres) $799.99 at Amazon (20% off)
My top pick: The $300 Yardcare V100 is one of the lowest prices I’ve seen for a robot lawn mower. That said, I think most people would be best served by the more robust Segway Navimow i105n.
Black Friday mid-range robot lawn mower deals
- Segway Navimow i110n (GPS/vision, .25 acres) $909.00 at Amazon (30% off)
- Mammotion Luba mini AWD 800 (RTK/Vision, .2 acres) $1,199.00 at Amazon (25% off)
- Mammotion Yuka 2000 (RTK/Vision, .5 acres) $1,299.00 at Amazon (28% off)
- Eufy E15 Robot Lawn Mower (vision, 0.2 acres) $1,299.99 at Amazon (43% off)
- Eufy E18 Robot Lawn Mower (vision, 0.3 acres) $1,499.99 at Amazon (42% off)
My top pick: Of the mid-range robot mowers on sale for Black Friday, the Segway Navimow i110n and the Eufy E15 and E18 are particularly good deals (the only difference between those two Eufy models is the size of their batteries). I’ve personally tested all three mowers and can recommend them without hesitation.
Black Friday deals on high-end robot lawn mowers
If you have a large yard, each of these higher-end robot mowers is a great deal.
- Ecovacs Goat A3000 Dual LiDAR Robot Lawn Mower (vision, 0.75 acres) $2,099.99 at Amazon (30% off)
- Husqvarna 410iQ Automower Robotic Mower (EPOS/GPS, .5 acre) $2,099.99 at Amazon (30% off)

- Yarbo Core + Lawnmower $3,999.00 at Amazon (20% off)

Yarbo’s offering is unique in that it consists of a motorized core unit to which you can attach separate modules for different tasks. There’s a mower unit, of course, but also a snow blower, a leaf blower, a snow plow blade, and a trailer hitch.
FAQ
1.
When is Black Friday?
Black Friday officially starts Friday, November 28 (the day after the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S.). But retailers are increasingly reluctant to wait that long for the shopping event to start, and you can see from the lists above that there are already some great deals to be had. If you see one that’s tempting, you might want to snag it now in case stocks disappear.
2.
What is Cyber Monday? And when is it?
Retailers created Cyber Monday as a shopping holiday to spur online sales immediately after Thanksgiving. Many of the deals offered on Black Friday are carried over to Cyber Monday, but some are exclusive to that day. This year, Cyber Monday will fall on December 1.

4.
Do you need to be an Amazon Prime member to get Black Friday deals?
Amazon isn’t the only retailer sponsoring Black Friday sales. Everybody is in the game, from Best Buy to Home Depot. Also, this isn’t one of Amazon’s Prime Day sales, so you don’t need to subscribe to Amazon Prime to get the deals Amazon is offering. That said, if you do buy from Amazon, a Prime membership will entitle you to free shipping and access to Amazon Prime Video (including Thursday Night Football), Amazon Music, and Prime Gaming.
You can sign up for an Amazon Prime 30-day free trial if you want to give it a try.
